Another week, another PSN update worth checking out. Oddly missing from the European store is the Metal Gear Solid 4 Database free download. The database is your tool for understanding the highly convoluted story lines that surround the Metal Gear Solid universe. The best thing about it is you don’t have to worry about spoilers ruining the experience if you haven’t completed Snake’s final mission yet. The database includes a feature that blacks out anything that appears spoilerific until you beat the game. In addition to that, Konami is also releasing a new camouflage outfit for Snake and a new tune for your in-game iPod. You could attempt to get it from the Japanese or North American store, but some have reported it does not work if you’re not based in those regions. Maybe next week.

The Warhawk bundle that contains both Operation Omega Dawn and Operation Broken Mirror is now available for one thrifty price tag. If you’ve been holding out to buy at least one of these expansions, this deal may be what you need to put you over the top. These expansions include new maps and vehicles that weren’t available in the original retail or downloadable version of Warhawk.

North American PS3 users have quite a bit to be excited about. There’s a bunch of content to help swallow up hard drive space. Fatal Inertia EX is now available for roughly 30 green backs. The game is a futuristic racer in the vain of WipeOut or F-Zero. There’s a demo also available so you can try it out before slamming down the dough. The other add-on content, demos and videos are delivered in spades this week.
