US PS Store Update, December 20 - Sega sale, Sonic CD, Trine 2, and L.A Noire

This week's US PlayStation Store update is dominated by massive holiday sales, but check out a number of newly-released full PS3 games and a slab of DLC.

On the full game side of things, we have Sonic CD, Trine 2, L.A. Noire, Just Cause 2, Brothers In Arms: Hell’s Highway, Apples to Apples, Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands and NCAA Football 12 making their debut on the PSN. Even the PSP gets a look in with some new content.

The Updates section is simply enormous, with discounts on a huge number of titles leading into the holidays, but you'll also notice a hefty collection of bundles have cropped up.

There's plenty of DLC to peruse, including the new Renegade Ops packs, and you'll notice you can buy Aurum - virtual currency, I think - for DUST 514, the Eve Online tie-in which isn't due until next year.

See the full details below, courtesy of the US PS Blog.
