Playstation Store Update (03-27-2012)

The last week of Playstation’s annual Spring Fever sale brings huge discounts on games from the Tom Clancy franchise. Fans of the series can get modern classics like Ghost Recon, Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six, and Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 for up to 75 percent off for a limited time. Also on sale this week is Closure, an award-winning indie puzzle game in the same spirit as critical darling Journey, which released on the Playstation Store two weeks ago.

New games on the Playstation Store include full-game downloads of FIFA 2012 on Playstation 3 and Supremacy MMA for Playstation Vita. If you’re short on funds this week, then you can download demos for Closure, Blades of Time, and 2D action-platformer Zack Zack.

Also, be sure to check out episode eight of the latest season of The Tester, hosted by SonyRumors’ special guest Meredith Molinari. You can find The Tester under the Game Videos tab of the Playstation Store.

Hit the jump to see this week’s Playstation Store update.
