It will be 1991 all over again, when Sony releases its next PlayStation Plus bonus on February 7. If you were a gamer back then, it’s safe to assume that you will be familiar with the gifted game. After all, it just so happens to be The Simpsons Arcade – a game which many have been hoping to download on modern day consoles! The side-scrolling gem will only be free until February 29.
Although confirmation has yet to be given, The Simpsons Arcade was outed on a leaked list of upcoming Xbox LIVE Arcade games. An achievement list appeared shortly afterwards, mentioning the inclusion of the Japanese ROM version of the game. However, this is the first time the downloadable classic has been announced for release on PSN.
As if the quirky, family-driven brawler isn’t a nice enough thank you gift, there’s one more bonus to mention. Valentine’s Day will bring with it the release of Far Cry 2, as a free (and complete) download. If you’ve yet to play through one of the more unique first-person shooters this generation has to offer, then you should definitely book a digital trip to its digital African landscape.
