Big, big week for PS Plus subscribers with some pretty awesome freebies.
Not only do PS Plussers get both Awesomenauts and Trine 2 free this week (yes, free) but the absolute classic PSOne editions of Symphony of the Night and Castlevania Chronicles are on the arm too.
I seriously have SotN on pretty much every format it was ever released on already and I’ll be downloading this one as soon as is humanly possible. If you’ve never played through one of the best Castlevania’s ever, do yourself a favor and follow suit.
What else is there this week? How about the full fledged (downloadables included) Mortal Kombat reboot for the Vita? Add-ons for SSX, Operation Raccoon City, and Saint’s Row the Third, and Motorstorm RC?
Maybe the only downer is that Max Payne (the first one) is now available as a PS2 classic and isn’t playable on the PSV. Really would’ve liked that… can we work on maybe getting more PSN goodies to work on the Vita Sony? Thanks a bunch.

SoTN… Free?!?! It hasn't even been released for download in Australia yet!
It never ceases to amaze me how certain territories get royally screwed over. What could the holdup on some of this stuff possibly be?
SotN is a certifiable classic, it should be available everywhere
This was an awesome release. SoTN was one I already had on Xbox live – I picked that bad boy up as soon as it released over there (still need to do a write-up on that), but the list of freebies this month for PS+ users is pretty sweet.
