Counter-Strike: Global Offensive headlines summer PSN promotion
"Sony dates and prices The Expendables 2, Sound Shapes, Papo & Yo, CS:GO, offers vouchers to those who preorder multiple titles."
PlayStation Network's summer promotion, PSN Play, will return this month, and its announcement brings a slew of release dates and prices. The deal outlined in the Sony announcement also detailed bonuses for preordering and purchasing all four downloadable games in the collection.
If you don't preorder CS:GO, then the terrorists win.
PSN Play will begin with movie tie-in The Expendables 2, which launches first on PSN on July 31. Musical platformer Sound Shapes is up next on the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita on August 7. PS3-exclusive Papo & Yo will bring exploration, puzzles, and alcoholism allegories on August 14, and competitive shooter reboot Counter-Strike: Global Offensive caps the promotion on August 21. Each game is $15 ($12 for PlayStation Plus members who preorder) and comes with a theme if preordered starting the week before release.
Players will also be given incentive to purchase multiple titles from the collection, with PSN cash vouchers of $3, $6, and $10 awarded to those who purchase two, three, or all the games.

im getting CS looks like it wont disappoint
CS GO is only goin to be 15 bucks?! Fuckin tight!!!!
CS coming to consoles im so late on this
Papo & Yo seemed cool to me. I May buy that with my PS+ discount.
I'm most interested in Papo & Yo, but I have a good friend who's big into Counter-Strike. He'd buy the game on PC, though; is the PSN date the same day as Global Offensive releases on PC?

Apparently so...
