September has come and gone and US PlayStation owners were left wondering why the long awaited title Trine was a no show.  No worries. The PlayStation Network still got some new titles such as TMNT Turles in Time and re-release of PSOne classic Final Fantasy Tactics. Here are some of my musings.

What’s New
TMNT: Turtles in Time as well as NBA 2K10 were both new releases that made their way onto the PlayStation Network in early Aug. Both titles have seem to claim their spot as the top picks for September. Zombie Apocalypse got a late start with its 9/24 release date on PSN but it managed to snag the #7 spot. It will be interesting to see how consumer interest in the titles continue.

You’ve Been Dethroned
Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 was a new title released to PSN in August and ruled the #1 spot for the month. It seems this title has fell to the #4 spot and has given away it’s spot to the newly released Turtles in Time. Shatter, a personal favorite, released in late July has made its exit from the monthly top 10. Shatter debuted in the #5 position in July, with a two spot drop to #7 for August. I do hope it makes a return for future top 10 lists.

I’m Not Going
Other titles that continue hold their ground in with the onslaught of new games is Fat Princess and Battlefield 1943 who not only had to make way for two new titles, but were also edged out my Final Fantasy VII moving up to the third position.
