Hello and welcome to our amazingly late recap of what's on the PlayStation Store this week.
Star attractions are Earthworm Jim HD and newcomer Premier Manager. The latter's been made by urbanscan and costs £14. It's exclusive to PSN and features an XMB-style menu and dot-based match engine. Accessibility is the key word.
There's a video and some blurb about Premier Manager on the European PlayStation blog.
Three new Minis, all from Bigben, arrive this week. They are Tetraminos, Labyrinth and Brick Breaker. They're twists on popular old classics and may whittle away an hour or two.
Demos this week are Madden NFL 11 and Flower for PS3. The latter is the strikingly beautiful PSN game by thatgamecompany, and is certainly worth a try. Originally released in February 2009, Flower earned 8/10 on Eurogamer.
On PSP, meanwhile, there's a demo for Worms: Battle Island.
Lost Planet 2's new Rush Arena is available to download this week, as is a suspiciously named Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 extra called "The Predator". No idea why that caught our eye.
On top of all that, PlayStation Home has welcomed wings, and the Digital Comics Store now bulges with fresh reads.
