EU PlayStation Store update 27th July
Annihilation! NFS sale! LA Noire DLC!
New Call of Duty: Black Ops map pack Annihilation headlines this week's massive PlayStation Store update.
Xbox 360 owners have had it exclusively for the past month. Available from tomorrow on PS3, its five new maps will cost you £11.49.
Looking for something a bit cheaper? Sony's massive summer sale reaches Europe this week, with more than 30 downloadable titles discounted over the next seven days. Highlights include Popcap's Peggle, Hothead's Swarm and Telltale's Sam & Max and Back to the Future.
EA is launching its own range of reductions, focusing on racer Burnout Paradise and multiple entries in the Need for Speed series. If you've yet to pick up the pricey DLC for last year's Hot Pursuit for example, you can now pick up the bundle pack at a cheaper price.
For one week only, gamers can get highly praised shooter Section 8: Prejudice bundled with both its downloadable Map Packs. There's also exclusive in-game armour for PlayStation Plus members and the first 1000 Plus members to purchase it get the original Section 8 free.
European PS3 gamers can finally download L.A. Noire's PlayStation 3-exclusive Traffic case "The Consul's Car". In North America it came as a free download with PS3 copies of the game. In Europe, you'll have to pay £3.19. Xbox 360 owners will never get this add-on.
The EU update listing is currently missing Dragon Age 2 DLC Legacy. It appeared as scheduled in this week's US update and is also available on Xbox 360.
The full listing, courtesy of the EU PlayStation blog, lies below:
