As if you don't have enough games to worry about this torrential fall, Sony is adding to the downpour with its "Only on PlayStation Network" campaign. Every Tuesday this month, we'll not only be getting exclusives but a selection of "rare classic games" including God Hand, GrimGrimoire, Maximo, Odin Sphere and Ring of Red, all coming tomorrow. (We guess that since your PS3 doen't play PS2 games any more, those really are only on PSN.)

Industry Gamers (http://www.industrygamers.com/news/sony-pushes-psn-exclusives-with-only-on-psn-program/) reports PlayStation Plus members get every title at 20 percent off during launch week and those that spend more than $60 in October on the service will get a $10 credit for November. We're unclear on what other PS2 games to expect, but here's the lineup of PSN exlusives so you can plan your buying accordingly:

October 4 - Eufloria and Rochard
October 11 - Sideway: New York
October 13 - Sodium Collection
October 18 - Okabu and RocketBirds
October 25 - inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood and PixelJunk Sidescroller

Well i see it's back to business as usual for Sony then, i mean taking years to add new features the competition already has then doing a half-arsed job of it. Now it did play Ps2 from day 1 but well... Let's kindly call it Sony's arrogance meant they assumed people were gonna buy anything they made at any price they charge, and now 5 years later they want to charge us i'm guessing around £10 for stuff i can either buy for 50p or even already own, and obviously they trying to gently ease us into the idea starting with games most people don't give a crap about then release the better stuff.
