Sony America has confirmed three more PS2 games headed for the recently-launched 'PS2 Classics' section of the US PlayStation Store.
Joining the current limited selection this week is farming sim Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland, classic arcade shooter Raiden III, and bloodthirsty brawler BloodRayne.
Here's the official blurb for each title for those who don't remember the originals:
Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland - Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland takes the popular series in a whole new direction, offering a deeper and more robust role-playing experience. It might be best described as a 'Life Simulation'.
Raiden III - Raiden III for PlayStation 2 is a port of the classic arcade shooter, complete with a stage select mode that lets you replay stages once you've cleared them. The series has transitioned from its 2D roots to 3D, creating lush environments, devastating explosions and countless enemies, without a drop in frame-rate. Two players can play together to push back the invading forces, just like in the arcade!
Bloodrayne - As the vampiric agent BloodRayne, you'll travel through the eerie swamps of Louisiana, to Argentina and Germany in this battle-heavy, third-person thriller. The game features non-linear gameplay in more than 40 levels and three massive worlds, the ability to suck blood for health, and to use slow-motion, zoom and aura visions to aid in death dealing. Pull off fantastic acrobatic moves to bend the environment to your will and dispatch enemies with BloodRayne's blades and kicks for awesome in-your-face combat.
Putting a positive spin on this year's disastrous PSN outage, Sony has said the downtime actually resulted in drawing dormant customers back online rather than putting them off.
