Slant Six has finally revealed the release date of the upcoming DLC pack for SOCOM: Confrontation. It was announced that the DLC will be released later this summer. No other details was given as of the moment, but we can expect  to hear more info about the content in the upcoming weeks.

Patches, patches, patches are still coming for Slant Six's PS3 shooter, SOCOM: Confrontation. Patch 1.50 is now reportedly feature complete and in testing, and while it's not yet out the devs have decided it's a good time as any to announce a few features in patch 1.60. Details after the jump.

Of note this week in Europe's PSN update are a handful of downloadable PSP games: LocoRoco and SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 2 being half of that list. The usual PS3 games get DLC packs again, but if you guys want to give Savage Moon a spin, there's a trial version available.

Jeff Rubenstein posted earlier today at the PlayStation Blog to announce that he, along with Chris Morell, will be headed to L.A. for SCEA's pre-E3 show. With them is an exciting list of games that will will come in neat, sneak peek packages.

Hopes are running high for the Sony PlayStation 3 exclusive MAG, Zipper Interactive's 256-person multiplayer fragfest. Zipper's also aiming high, promising to deliver a multiplayer experience deeper than that of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (PS3, Xbox 360, PC), the reigning king of the multiplayer FPS hill.

Sony's still keeping the lid tight on MAG, Zipper Interactive's upcoming action game of admittedly epic proportions, but SCEA hardware marketing chief John Koller managed to reveal two things about the game: 1) it's similar to the SOCOM series; and 2) it's only possible on the PS3.

SCEA VP of Product Marketing, Scott Steinberg, is a firm believer that Killzone 2 will be that factor strong enough to have the Xbox 360 gamers try out the PlayStation 3 system. In an interview with GameDaily, Steinberg talked about the golden boy of the PS3, the many more great things to expect from the PS3, and why 2009 is really THE YEAR of the said console.

PlayStation Home's getting quite a bit of content in the days to come. According to a post from TedTheDog, we're finally getting the Street Fighter IV outfits in the next few weeks, and they're prepping up for a lot more games that will be supporting Home.

Masters of stealth and invisibility, ninjas dwell in the hallowed grounds of... spacious apartment complexes. PlayStation Home's getting new ninja outfits and will be holding an "I Love Ninjas" event where you get a chance to win SOCOM and Warhawk vouchers. New details are also out for the Street Fighter outfits. Details after the link.

Ah, the moment of truth: the European release date for SOCOM: Confrontation has finally been set in stone. No more rumors, and let's hope no more delays either. For those of you guys in Europe who still haven't lost interest, take out the red markers!
