This week’s US PlayStation Store update doesn’t feature any big-name downloadable titles or DLC but is still worthwhile for a number of reasons. Fight Night Champion Customizable allows you to purchase a significant portion of the retail release for only a few dollars - a first for PSN. The game’s excellent Champion Mode is now available as a digital download for only $4.99, with additional modes available for purchase from the in-game store.

Another featured title worth mentioning is the PSone Classic Chrono Cross ($9.99). This Square Enix RPG will feel familiar to anyone who’s played the PSone Final Fantasy titles but features distinct time-travelling gameplay and has some of the best battle mechanics of its generation. The game also sports a vast, memorable cast of characters, a beautiful soundtrack and enough secrets to warrant poring over its strategy guide.

The best piece of free content added to the PS Store via this week’s update has to be the demo for Rayman Origins. It kept my wife and I entertained for quite some time this morning as we played through the three levels on offer. The drop-in co-op works brilliantly and the controls feel spot-on. The game’s gorgeous graphics and highly original soundtrack should charm the socks off everyone who sees the demo in action!
