House of the Dead 4 is up for download this week, marking the first time that the B movie shooter is available on home consoles.

I’ve personally never played HotD4 so I’m not exactly sure what players should expect from it. From the number in the title though, I’d say that it’d probably be a safe bet to say that it’s probably more like the classic series than the Overkill prequel that came out last year on the PS3.

Light gun action not your thing? Maybe you’d like to check out the Ghost Recon Future Soldier beta that’s now available? It’s up for PS Plus subscribers only.

There’s also a pair of new Vita games available- Stardrone Extreme looks to mash up a bunch of different mechanics into one fast action arcade puzzler. Disgaea 3 on the other hand should need no introduction (hint: it’s an RPG)

By the way, I didn’t leave it out intentionally. There is no PSP update for this week. I guess the bell tolls…
