US PS Store Update - Sideway: New York, Resistance 3 DLC, more

This week's PS Store Update is heavy on the DLC and light on whole new games, but you probably have enough on your plate.

Two new NeoGeo classics hit the console networks this week, Metal Slug 2 and The King of Fighters '96 - both are available on PS3 and PSP. On a retro note, this week's PSOne Classic is XS Junior League Football.

PSN exclusive Sideway: New York has turned up, offering players the chance to explore a graffiti world.

There's a demo for that, and also for Atlus's latest, The Cursed Crusade, an action game called Stardrone and NBA Jam: On Fire Edition.

On the DLC side of things, Sony represents with new Resistance 3 and LittleBigPlanet offerings, and in third-party land, the new Dragon Age DLC is out alongside Street Fighter III, Dynasty Warriors 7 and Duke Nukem packs. There's also a couple of packs for this week's newly released Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, including a free F-15C.
