microtransactionsWe mentioned yesterday that Sony Japan will be updating its roster of PSOne games to be played on the PSP. As we all know, these titles can be accessed via the PlayStation Store. Moreover, the online store will not be called that if it doesn't cater to PS3 titles too.

With that said, gaming site Kotaku has a heads up for everybody about future microtransactions for Genji: Days of the Blade and Blast Factor. Accordingly, Genji will be getting a costume pack while the other download, which is for Blast Factor, involves a "Co-op Play Download Pack." According to reports, the said costume pack will be readily available for free for a limited time in the Japanese market when the game launches on December 31.

As of now, there is still no available information regarding the date they will go live as well as price points. Genji was developed by Game Republic and is about the historical battles in the feudal days in Japan while Blast Factor is a download-only shooter by Bluepoint Games.
