PlayStation Store - Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Warhawk expansion, free Lair pack and more

The new, improved PlayStation Store has finally been restocked after three weeks of inactivity. Just be warned that if you didn't rush out to install the firmware patch, you'll face a 30-minute or so delay before getting to the downloads:
  • Gran Turismo 5 Prologue ($40) - a glorified demo with long-overdue 16-player online gaming and no resale value; buy it at retail if you can't wait until later this year for the full game
  • Warhawk Broken Mirror Pack ($8, or $12 as a combo with the previously released Omega Dawn Pack) adds the Armored Personnel Carrier and the Vaporfield Glacier Battlefield
  • Lair Dragons and Control Pack (free) adds two playable dragons, DualShock rumble and, best of all, the choice to ditch the Sixaxix controls in favor of the dual analog sticks
  • Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection Online Update (free; online version only; must run the game to get it) adds Pickup Match Mode, DualShock rumble, improvements to online matchmaking and unspecified bug fixes
  • Super Stardust HD Solo Upgrade Pack ($5) adds remixed visuals and music plus three new game modes: Endless, Survival and Time Attack
  • Rock Band tracks delayed by the store freeze: "Still Alive" by Jonathon Coulton and GLaDOS (free); "Rock Rebellion" by Bang Camaro, "Shake" by Count Zero and "Sprode" by Freezepop ($1 each or $3 for the 3-pack); and "Call Me" by Blondie, "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd and "Message In A Bottle" by The Police ($2 each or $5.50 for the 3-pack)
  • Demo: UEFA Euro 2008
  • Game Videos: Condemned 2: Bloodshot, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Haze, This is Vegas and Warhawk Broken Mirror Pack
  • Themes: Lair and Warhawk
  • Movie Trailer: Pineapple Express
