The console war is fought everywhere these days, but the internet seems to be where people are most vocal. It also serves to give each console its own set of downloadable content, fuelling the war even more. Each week we’ll give you a run-down of what’s available to download on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Wii is no longer included in our round-up.
Our verdict is based on the content available this week only.
Note: This round-up is based on UK releases to each console’s online service and does not include premium video content. Releases outside of the UK could vary.

And the winner of this week’s DLC Royal Rumble is…
Xbox 360
The only item of content worth caring about this week for many a gamer will be the demo of Final Fantasy XIII-2, giving fans the chance to see just how much the title has improved over the first, disappointing effort.
The headline full game release is horror experience AMY, but sadly she fluffed her lines and delivered a performance worthy of the Razzies. If you really must give this shocker a go then please opt for the Xbox LIVE Arcade demo over dropping £8.
The only really differentiating game of the week is Xbox LIVE Arcade’s 80s remake Choplifter HD, a game worth a look, but at 1200 MS Points is probably pricing itself out of many sales. At this price we recommend a quick play with the demo before deciding to buy.
We’re handing the victory to Xbox 360
