PayDay: The Heist and Other PSN Exclusives Get Release Dates
PayDay: The Heist headlines PSN's next wave of heavy-hitters.
With Xbox Live's Summer of Arcade winding down, Sony's planning to own Autumn with a few top-notch downloadable titles of its own. PayDay: The Heist, Rochard and Sideway: New York now have firm release dates spread across the coming couple of months.

First up is Rochard [http://www.rochardthegame.com/], a side-scrolling platformer starring a fat, moustachioed man shooting space-pirates. It relies on grappling-hook swinging and other physics stuff we've seen in other games, but the combination of existing ideas should give it a decent bit of variety. This one releases September 27th for ten bucks.
PayDay is next up in the major release list. Its multiplayer bank robberies Kane & Lynch 2 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/110811-E3-Payday-The-Heist]. Sony obviously has some high hopes for The Heist: we'll see at least one expansion pack later this year. It hits PSN on October 4th for $20.
Sideway: New York closes out the list of release date announcements. Another 2D game with plenty of quirk to go around, cooperative vandalism is key in this graffiti-centric platformer. October 11th is its magical day, and $10 is the asking fee.
The lineup isn't as immediately exciting as the stuff in Microsoft's annual promotion, but Sony has some potentially strong stuff set for the fall.
