I’m a bit behind on these Playstation 3 updates because I had finals in school, but I’m back in action and ready to spam your eyes with this information. Nonetheless, several updates to the store last week included a new episode of Qore, which is free for everyone this time around in leiu of the Holidays. I’ll check it out! Also, a new downloadable game, Soldner-X: Himmelssturmer (pictured above), is available for purchase with an attractive price. The game reminds me of R-Type, if anyone used to play that. This week’s free LittleBigPlanet costume is a Kabuki actor, and I sincerely hope that they keep releasing Japanese-themed costumes. Read on for more..
