Thank you for your patience this weekend, and enjoy the belated Drop!
The smoke-slinging Delsin Rowe made a huge impact on Seattle during his quest for vengeance in inFAMOUS Second Son. But he wasn’t the only Conduit stirring up trouble for the DUP. Abigail “Fetch” Walker leveled her own deadly talents against those that wronged her, and her story continues in inFAMOUS First Light.
First Light hits PS4 this week as a standalone download from PlayStation Store. In it, players can explore Fetch’s tragic past and her weaponization at the hands of the Department of Unified Protection. This means even more neon abilities, new ways to traverse Seattle, and more insight into what makes Fetch so incredibly badass.
Of course, that’s just one game coming to PlayStation this week. Read on for a complete list of new releases, and enjoy the Drop!

As A longtime PS Plus subscriber my only complaint is that DLC’s are rarely on sale. You guys give us tons of free games and game sales but the expansions or DLC for those games usually end up costing more than the actual game. I would really appreciate if you fix this issue and would love an end of summer blowout DLC sale, thank you.

Some other rpg or action/adventure game that hasn’t been released on the store yet? I’m not asking much, just SOMETHING decent.
Well, if it has Texas Hold’em I might check it out :/

Two PSone classics from A1 Games, when are we getting better PSone classics like Ms. Pac-Man Maze Madness, StarBlade Alpha, Disney’s Tarzan, Grand Theft Auto 1 & 2, Ninja: Shadow of Darkness, Mega Man 8, and Buster Bros. Collection.
It’s hard to believe the Neptunia series is already up to nine current and pending entries across three platforms:
The original, Mk2, and Victory for PS3,
PP, Re; BIrth 1, Re;Birth 2, Geki Noire, and U for Vita,
Plus Victory II for PS4.
It’ll be interesting to see how well Re;Birth 1 does for Idea Factory International, and what it might mean for other Vita games in the series which have yet to be announced for Western localization (such as the Lastation-themed SRPG spinoff Chou Megami Shinkou Noire Gekishin Black Heart).

Seeing this PS1 game made me want to comment this: I think PS Now is going to be awesome and I can’t wait to see the price of the subscription when it’s finished. But I also don’t always have access to great internet speeds :( so Sony, if you’re listening, please add emulation of PS1 and PS2 games in the future, like the PS3 has. I’m not asking for PS3 games to be emulated since I’m sure that would be exceptionally hard, but I think PS1&2 games can be done. Thanks!
My my, this list is bigger than what was read on Blogcast 131…
@17 (Nerroth)
Yeah, really. Hell, I’m buying the Limited Edition as soon as it goes live on Amazon. That said, I’d still wanna play Noire’s game (as she is my favorite……and everyone else’s, for that matter) over Re;birth 2 if given the chance.
Also, there’s only 7 titles in the series – Neptunia, mk2, Victory, PP, Noire’s game, U, and VII. (I skipped Re;birth 1 and 2 because they’re remakes.) Not only is the PS4 game a sequel to Victory, the 7th title in the series, but I think it’s also a direct reference to that one Final Fantasy game…
Still dreaming for that fighting game to happen, though! (by Arc System Works, that is)

Can anyone from Sony please address the fact that PS+ subscribers are ineligible to take advantage of the Flash Sales, or ANY sale, for that matter?
The problem is, many of the games that have been recently discounted have previously been offered as part of a paid PS+ subscription. Because many of us already received those games ‘free’, we are not eligible to purchase them outright at the discounted rate.
The simplest solution, it seems, would be to just delete the item from our Download List, making it possible for us to purchase it at the discounted rate. When I got in touch with Customer Support via chat, they advised me to create a new profile, which defeats the entire purpose of having one profile, one account, one set of trophies.
I would prefer to list the original and Re;Birth1 separately, given that the latter is essentially a new game in and of itself. It runs on a different engine, tells a heavily re-worked storyline, and include a new set of characters (minus a few absentees from the original).
I would agree that the differences between Mk2 and Re;Birth 2 are much less pronounced, though there do still seem to be a number of tweaks and changes here and there.
