Killzone 3 beta heads PS Store update

There's plenty on the PlayStation Store today. Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 justifies its £10 price with a great big 9/10 kiss from Eurogamer's Ellie Gibson, and Dead Space 2 prequel Dead Space Ignition is available in free trial form before you splash the £4 required.

Demos are just as attractive - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II and God of War: Ghost of Sparta (PSP) in particular. Among the others is a taster for Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2, which should be handy for anyone wondering what these Dragon Ball games are and why they keep coming back.

PlayStation Plus subscribers are getting three lots of Fallout 3 DLC free this month, plus that exclusive Killzone 3 beta - the theme of which needs downloading quick-smart in order to enter. The beta kicks off tonight at 8pm.

Deals of note are permanent reductions for 8/10 multiplayer shooter Section 8 (half-price) and recent 8/10 hack-and-slash game Blade Kitten (down to £7.20). Plus, Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops has been discounted to £5.19 until 27th October.

There's new content this week for Red Dead Redemption, Dead Rising 2, HAWX 2, Split/Second and WRC.
