Sorry, but nothing playable hits the Store in today's update. Not even a demo of <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/thedarkness"><span style="font-style: italic;">The Darkness</span></a>. What we do have are tons of videos. So get the microwave ready, pop up some popcorn and get ready to watch:<br />
<ul>
    <li><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/heavenlysword"><span style="font-style: italic;">Heavenly Sword</span></a> Gamer's Day trailer. With this trailer on your PS3, at least you can <span style="font-style: italic;">pretend</span> to be playing it.</li>
    <li><span style="font-style: italic;">MLB 07 The Show</span> trailer. Just in case watching <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/06/01/north-american-psn-releases-for-june-1st-prepare-to-be-bored/">last week's videos</a> wasn't sufficient.<br /></li>
    <li><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/tag/stranglehold"><span style="font-style: italic;">Stranglehold</span></a> trailer. John Woo's <span style="font-style: italic;">Hard Boiled</span> sequel-turned-to-game gets another visit to the Store.</li>
    <li><span style="font-style: italic;">Transformers</span> movie trailer. In full HD, you'll get more than meets the eye.</li>
    <li><span style="font-style: italic;">Bruce Springsteen with the Sessions Band: Live in Dublin</span> trailer.</li>
</ul>

Why would that interest you, you ask? It may be easy to forget, but your shiny black behemoth is capable of playing games from any region. That means every (both) game(s) in the following list is (are) a potential purchase. Here're the releases for the coming week:<br /><br /><strong>US Games<br /></strong>

</ul>
<strong>Asian Games<br /></strong>

How about that, eh? A couple of new games out. Keep this up and we might end up with one of those 'software library' things I've heard so much about. Release dates are subject to change, so be sure to call your local retailer and check, just in case. If you pick up either of these new releases, let use know what you think of them.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2007/05/13/worldwide-ps3-releases-for-the-week-of-may-13/">Worldwide PS3 releases for the week of May 13</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Sun, 13 May 2007 20:00:00 EST.

<p>The little factoid is unattributed, but probably came from Mets third baseman and <em>The Show</em> cover star David Wright, who goes on to explain the game's usefulness as a tool for checking out the competition. "Pitchers throw the curves and sliders they're known for and hitters chase what they chase in the game. It's like scouting," Wright said. Does anyone else miss the days when sports games were more about <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RBI_Baseball">accessible fun</a> and less about being virtually indistinguishable from their real life counterparts?</p>
