This week’s Playstation Store update is headlined by a ton of amazing Playstation Network exclusives with the release of a unique first-person adventure called Datura, from Sony Santa Monica and Plastic, and a huge sale on every game from the PixelJunk series in anticipation of the upcoming release of PixelJunk 4am. Many of these titles are offered for as low as $1, so definitely don’t skip out on games like PixelJunk Shooter and PixelJunk Eden.
