It’s been quite a month for <a href="http://us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-plus/" target="_blank">PlayStation Plus</a> members. As we look back at the eight(!) games that were announced to arrive free for members in June, we’ve delivered seven of them including XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, and more.

One of the stand-out moment at this year’s PlayStation press briefing at <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/e313/" target="_blank">E3</a>, for me at least, was when eight independent developers took to the stage to show off their <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps4/" target="_blank">PS4</a> titles. Leading them out were Greg Kasavin and Amir Rao of Supergiant Games, who announced that Transistor, their bewitchingly beautiful follow-up to smash hit action RPG Bastion, will be debuting on PS4 when development wraps up in 2014.

Just because it wasn't a crazy week doesn't mean we don't have some good stuff for you though -- <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/06/21/hotline-miami-hits-ps3-and-ps-vita-tuesday-with-ps-exclusive-mask/" target="_blank">Hotline Miami is coming to PS3 and PS Vita Tuesday</a>! That's right, this coming Tuesday. $9.99 nets you the game on both PS3 and PS Vita, so there really isn't any excuse not to grab it. We also announced a <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/06/21/velocity-ultra-blasts-off-on-ps-vita-july-2nd/" target="_blank">July 2nd release date</a> for <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/velocity-ultra/" target="_blank">Velocity Ultra</a> on PS Vita.

What can I say? Other than sorry for the delay! We’ve been somewhat harassed by you folks for a month on Twitter, Email and Facebook, and frankly we deserved it!

Let’s get to the news you’ve all been waiting for first - <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/hotline-miami/" target="_blank">Hotline Miami</a> will launch for $9.99 on <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps3/" target="_blank">PlayStation 3</a> and <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/category/ps-vita/" target="_blank">PS Vita</a> on June 25th! The teams at Dennaton Games, Abstraction Games, and Devolver Digital have worked incredibly hard to reproduce the fast-paced gameplay and super tight controls of the original game, and we couldn’t be happier with how Hotline Miami plays on PS3 and PS Vita. The PlayStation versions of Hotline Miami will also have an exclusive new mask designed by Abstraction and Dennaton Games. After months of top secret bovine research, we finally get to unveil our new friend: Russell the raging bull. More...

So it has been a crazy week for Urgent Fury with E3 and all but so much more is going on too… We recently posted a video recorded with NO_Fear and myself talking about what community meant to us, strolling down some Socom memory lanes, H-Hour and such: E3 was by far one of the most exciting which should not be a surprise since it was in fact probably the biggest console releases in gaming history with XBox and PlayStation going head to head this year. We saw many games on all consoles and PC and played plenty as well. I know I can be labeled as a PlayStation fanboy time and time again, but that is my personal preference and has been thanks to Socom. To each his own. Since there have been millions of posts about the console wars I won’t dive deep into it, and even as I finally write this, Microsoft has done a u-turn on some of their policies after the out crying of the gaming community and frankly horrid preorders. I really think they just approached the concept the wrong way and well PR was a complete disaster. I actually support getting control of the used game market and ensuring that publishers get their due from retailers. I do not support publishers going after Joe who sells his game to Johnny over like Craigslist or eBay, only businesses that make billions off of giving Joe $5 for a game and then turning around and selling it for $5 less than retail. I did get my hands on some PS4 play with Blacklight Retribution and I am very happy with the Dualshock 4. It was very well thought out, comfortable and not an overwhelming change. I would say it is a natural evolution. Blacklight Retribution, a F2P Shooter, was pretty cool. It will release with PS4 I believe from Zombie Studios. Walking the floor there are several blockbusters coming to current and next gen consoles, so prepare to be broke this holiday season no matter what console you choose. Honestly between the meetings and such, I did not get to experience near enough games this year. Of course you have seen us all over the announcement of H-Hour: World’s Elite’s KickStarter by SOF Studios. We really talk in the video above how much of an impact the early Socom Games had on all of us, and how David Sears is looking to bring back that style of gaming we have been looking for. Make sure you head over and support this project with a pledge http://bit.ly/ufsupportshhour We also announced that this Saturday, June 22nd we will be hosting a live Q & A with David Sears on our Twitch Channel, so get your questions ready… we will have the chat on a limiter to make sure that we are not getting spammed. We can’t forget that we have added a PS4 Giveaway. To clear it up, we are giving an actual PS4 away, we are doing the pre order and will ship to the winner. This is limited to the US. Sign up now: http://bit.ly/winaps4 Along with all of this going on at E3, in a PlayStation blog post today (where you can see my ugly mug) Kristine outlined our involvement as MVPs for PlayStation at E3. It was an amazing experience for all the MVPs, especially those that were at E3 for the first time. We had some very direct feedback sessions with PlayStation as well as some get sessions with several developers. This program provides engaged members of the PlayStation community direct access to the right people. With this access your voice can be heard through the MVPs. Now that we are done with E3 and all, we turn our attention back to the competitions at Urgent Fury. We have the Urgent Fury on Tour Chicago event coming right around the corner. Get your teams signed up, this is a guaranteed prize pool, so if only 8 teams sign up they are all going home cash in hand, if only one team shows up they are getting $7500 for doing almost nothing, we might make them play the staff lol. Remember there is a 64 team cap, we will not increase this, so it is first come first serve. We have now had a few teams register this week and expect to end up with a waiting list when it’s all said and done. Team Pre Registration is $280 and will be $320 at the door if there are any spots left. View the full article

score submissions The Best Game Trailers of E3 2013
Commander Fury posted a topic in Playstation Blog
While we clear our heads following last week’s salvo of PlayStation news and announcements ($399!), today we’re bubbling up some of our favorite new game trailers from <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/tag/e313/" target="_blank">E3 2013</a>. For my money? Nothing’s topping the weird, wistful, and wonderful new trailer for Hohokum, though Transistor, Tearaway, and Octodad all make strong arguments. More... -
