Looking back at this update is rather…depressing. Here we had what was supposed to introduce a plethora of trials – GoldenEye, Assassin’s Creed Revelations, and Arkham City- and now because of one mistake, all of that turns out to be false. Oh well, at least we have a ridiculous amount of discounts! Hopefully Rayman: Origins still has a trial for next week’s update, until then, hit the jump to see what we did get!

After a year of delays, Rock of Ages finally makes its way to the PlayStation Network next week! Free for PlayStation Plus members, Rock of Ages is a light-hearted, yet seemingly interesting take on the tower defense genre.

The story of Rock of Ages follows that of the mythological Greek King Sisyphus as he struggles to push a boulder up a hill in the depths of hell for all eternity. In an effort to take charge of his situation, Sisyphus breaks out of hell using the power of the rock and sets out on a quest to slay various historical and mythological figures throughout time.

The basic element of gameplay sees the player take control of the ever-so-powerful rock as you navigate your way down a steep, narrow pathway, ala Super Monkey Ball, to penetrate your enemy’s defenses and win the match. While you’re doing that, your opponent will be doing the same, which requires you to build defenses along the path to your base so you can stall of time.

With multiple levels to play through, local and online multiplayer, and various game modes, Rock of Ages looks like it will be an interesting title to pick up.

GoldenEye 007: Reloaded is an HD remaster of the previous year’s GoldenEye 007 for the Wii. This game attempts to capitalize upon the memories that you or I have of the N64 original, by bringing back what made the game fun and unique for its time.

Instead of the James Bond of the N64 era, Pierce Brosnan, you’ll be playing as the newest Bond, Daniel Craig which makes this a reimaging rather than a remaster of the original title. This change of character might deter fans away from the title, but from what I’ve seen, this does little to distract you from the overall experience.

The game features updated visuals from its Wii counterpart as well as a modern take on some elements found in the N64 classic. For instance, hacking scenes will be played out by using your smartphone. Reloaded also features an online multiplayer mode for you to take down opponents as your favorite bond characters, classic four-player local multiplayer, and PlayStation Move support.

If that’s not enough, PlayStation Plus members can pick it up for 50% off its PSN price, so you’re only paying $30!

And last but not least, a generous discount on select Ubisoft games! PlayStation Plus members get 50% off while PSN members get 30%! Act fast though, the sale ends next week!
