02.24.12
With so many shooters that came out last year, it was hard for gamers to get their hands on them all without putting a decent dent in their wallet. Beyond the heated rivalry between the Battlefield and Call of Duty franchises, 2011 hosted other shooters such as the long-awaited Crysis 2 and THQ's Homefront. That year has passes, but one game has a neat trick up its sleeve to keep itself relevant in 2012, and that game is Killzone 3.

Can Playstation Home Make Itself Relevant with New Update?
08.23.11
When firing up your PS3, you have a few options at your disposal besides simply playing the game you have inserted into your system. You can shop for some downloadable titles or even give a demo a shot in the Playstation Store, you can watch a movie or 2 on Netflix, or you can simply surf the net for a little bit. Another option that you may not really have taken advantage of is Playstation Home. In a nutshell, Home is a large internet chat room of sorts where you can hang out with other PS3 gamers and play a few games with them. However, it isn't something that a large share of PS3 owners have taken advantage of. Sony looks to change that with some big changes that will take place this fall.

Sony is jumping on that bandwagon by offering the Playstation Network PLAY program, a group of 4 games that, upon purchase of all 4, will score you a free game in PAYDAY: The Heist, a game some have been raving about since its showing at E3.
