PlayStation Store (PS3) update - 09/04/09

Resident Evil 5 thrusts you into a new mode of horror, along with a brilliant batch of other exciting downloads on PlayStation Network. Ready for a blast?

Fight each other's Evil

Resident Evil 5 has become even more evil, with a new downloadable mode which lets you go head to head against your friends. The Versus mode allows up to four players online, where you can compete for points by defeating the hostile Majini in Slayers, or battle against each other in Survivors. Take control of Chris, Sheva and other RE5 favourites and find out if you can truly survive.

Fight with the power of Plastic

Are you ready for the world's craziest kung fu experience? Welcome to Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic, where a bunch of amazing action figures are about to let fly with non-stop martial arts madness. With motion sensitive controls and 360 combat for up to four players, expect a totally bonkers battle that's sure to leave you fighting for another go.

A new Storm is coming

PSP is getting its own version of brutal off-road racing, and now you can get a glimpse in the new trailer to MotorStorm Arctic Edge. Sub-zero temperatures, insane speeds and the ever present threat of an avalanche... this is racing at its most extreme. MotorStorm Arctic Edge sees the world's most brutal racing festival relocate to the wilds of snowy Alaska - and the trailer hints at the icy carnage to come.

Enter the City of Fear

In the aftermath of disaster, the government has left the people of Empire City to fend for themselves. The once proud metropolis has become a breeding ground for crime, and only one man has the power to turn the tide. The question is: does he want to? Check out the trailer to comic book style action adventure inFamous to witness the hopes and fears of a city on its knees.

Play some PlayTV

PlayTV lets you pause, rewind and record live TV on your PLAYSTATION 3 - and with the free PlayTV Update, you can crank up the fun with some fantastic new features. Fancy a sharper picture, increased control and quicker access to all those magic TV moments? Watch the trailer to find out how to get your hands on all this and more...

Get yourself some Worms

The Worms are coming to PLAYSTATION 3, and this time they mean war. Battle up to three other players offline or online on one of six landscape themes, utilising a selection of classic Worms weaponry, from the famed Bazooka to the devastating Banana Bomb. With a fine selection of single player battles and plenty of ways to customise your annelid army, it's a package sky-high on entertainment - prepare to lock, load and laugh...

Expect more Resistance

Two new trailers for the PSP system's sci-fi epic Resistance: Retribution are now available for you to download and enjoy. The first is the Shattered Stone trailer, which gives you a glimpse of the gore and the glory on offer in the incredible title. British marine James Grayson knows better than anyone how to defeat the evil Chimera. But can human flesh survive where even stone shatters?

If that's not enough, the second trailer shows you how Resistance: Retribution can combine with PLAYSTATION 3 to give you extra ways to combat the Chimeran onslaught with two unique modes: Plus Mode and Infected Mode. Find out how they open new frontiers of gameplay in the tantalising trailer.

Sackboy knows Kung Fu

LittleBigPlanet's Sackboy is ready for some new attire to freshen up his wardrobe, and who can resist that cute little face? To help oblige his wishes, there are some blisteringly new costumes to download. Fancy the Patapon costume, which dresses Sakcboy like the main characters from the PSP rhythm action adventure game?

Or how about the Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic Costume Kit, which pays homage to your favourite characters from the PSN beat 'em up, letting you dress up like Hero, Master Hip, Master Sin, Master Tang or Master Sung Ling, and also play around with additional stickers.

Go on an adventure with Riddick

Step into the shoes of the galaxy's most notorious anti-hero in the demo to The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena. Take control of Riddick and engage in melee combat, stealth, and gunplay. There's some blood to spill in space tonight...

Bond gets Camille

James Bond's latest outing, Quantum of Solace, has four new multiplayer maps to show off your 007 style skills in. The Camille Map Pack features Canals, a claustrophobic section of Venice; Baggage, a gloomy area of the Miami airport; Dam, an outdoor arena that requires constant teamwork, and finally Cistern, the dark underbelly of Siena where trouble lurks around every dark corner.
