Top of this week's PSN update list has to be the playable demo of Bayonetta, which lets you sample the completely mental death-giving skills of the leading lady from Platinum Games' new slasher.
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising and Fight Night Round 4 fans also get their fix of new content this week, with meaty download packs released for both.
Here's the full official list:

No big surprise that codemasters have released the first of many DLC for the joke of a rush job that is Operation Flashpoint. My mate bought it, I rented it and we couldnt get past mission 3 in Co-op because the connection dropped every single time. Add to the fact its only 11 missions long and you just know that game was thrown out the door long before it was ready. ARMA2, despite its flaws is a far far superior game
