A juicy little tidbit for those of you that feel the PlayStation 3 needs more first-person shooters: THQ is reloading its PS2 classic Red Faction II for release on the PlayStation Store this week. The Volition favourite originally launched on Sony’s system in 2002, and has garnered cult status in the years since.
There’s no word on whether the title will make its way to European shores, but given SCEE’s current track record, we’re going to guess it won’t.

I'd have thought Sonic 4: Episode 2 would be bigger news, but whatevs'. Also, I see we're getting Myst, too. That's...interesting.

@Mickeymac Oh yeah, Sonic 4 and PixelJunk 4am are the biggies — this is just something else due for release.

Ah, this brings back memories. I really miss first-person shooters that were fast paced (Call of Duty is not fast paced, you just die really fast). Hopefully, they will add Timesplitters. Hopefully.

@DraculaX The Timesplitters games were amazing! I just wish they were big enough hits to justify an HD collection with online support. They'd deserve it.
I might just have to give this and the first Red Faction a download. I loved these games.

Dont forget Red faction is already up on the psn store and it's great. I never played part 2, so this is good news.
This is bigger news to me than sonic...
