Borderlands 2, Jet Set Radio, SSX, F1 2012, more added to PS Store

I guess Sony is definitely serious with this “PS3 Full Games” thing as they added two games to the PlayStation Store yesterday on the same day the disc-based versions were released. For all shooting and looting needs, Borderlands 2 is now available to download. And for all your open-wheel racing needs, there’s F1 2012.

Also available this week is the extreme snowboarding of SSX (the PS3 reboot, not the PS2 Classic), the extreme rollerblading of Jet Set Radio, and the extreme running of Feisty Feet. I’m sensing a theme Sony.

Hit the jump for all the details on these games (along with a few others) and hit up the PlayStation Blog for a complete list of this week’s new game add-ons and demos (including a demo of Resident Evil 6).
