Heads up guys! The latest US PlayStation Store update is now available. This weeks lineup includes a bunch of PSP game sales, new game demos including Fat Princess and Pro Evolution Soccer 2010, the usual game add-on contents, new Minis and a bunch of classic as well as some brand new downloadable games for the PS3 and PSP that includes LocoRoco: Midnight Carnival and Crystal Defenders.

If for some strange reason you thought Resistance was the last new Insomniac IP, better think again. In the words of senior community manager James Stevenson, that "would be a silly thought." Indeed.

So what transpired in the world of Sony's PS3 this week? Nate Drake's newest adventure is certainly off to a good start. And then there's word that the PS3 is continuing its newfound sales spurt in the land down under. Oh, and here's a no-brainer: rumblings about new entries in two of the PS3's biggest franchises have started to trickle out from the rumor mill. All in all, another good week for the PS3. Well, except maybe for that one particular console they threw into the Bravia. It didn't seem to get too banged up though.

With the holidays fast approaching and the recession still ongoing, we here at QJ.NET decided to do another round of bargain hunting at Amazon.com. If you're a first time game console owner, or maybe just looking for a great deal before the holidays, or one of those avid games collector, then you better checkout our list of 25 excellent games under US$ 25 and hopefully this can help you out with your purchasing decision. The full list after the jump.

The latest round of update for the US PlayStation Store is now available. This weeks lineup includes the usual game add-ons, a few price drops, three new game demos including the much awaited Ratchet And Clank Future: A Crack In Time, tons of downloadable PSP games and a pair of Oddworld PSone classics as well as some brand new downloadable games for the PS3 and PSP.

We're inching closer and closer to the release of Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time so Insomniac Games is rolling out updates to make sure we're up to speed going into the launch. Inside today's bag of updates are: two demos, two vids, and a price drop. Learn more after the jump.

Cross-game chat is one of those features that a vocal group of PS3 gamers has been clamoring for with every new firmware update. Word is that it's coming soon -- like "next update" soon -- but in the days since it was rumored to be inadvertently revealed by a Naughty Dog dev we haven't heard anything about it. Oh, and speaking of Naughty Dog,  Uncharted 2 came out this week. Haven't bought it yet? Go buy a copy. Haven't played it yet? Put it in your PS3 now. Finished it already? Go play it again. After you read the PS3 Weekend Warrior, of course.

To celebrate the upcoming North American launch of Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time, SCEA has released new details regarding the upcoming Ratchet & Clank themed space that will soon be available to PlayStation Home. The new Ratchet & Clank: Time Travelers content will feature three mini-games, costumes, rewards and a very special personal apartment.

Good things are happening to the PS3. Sony's got high hopes for it, of course, and it looks like analysts concur, pegging it as the top dog in the September hardware sales charts. The gamers -- the lifeblood of the whole video game industry -- are also in for a treat. There's talk of new games, the impending arrival of Uncharted 2 and the new Ratchet & Clank adventure, and what's this? Resistance 3?

Insomiac Games has announced that Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack In Time, has officially gone gold and is being sent to manufacturing in North America for its release later this month.
