Sony have announced that the PSN title Pain is to return as a free-to-play game.
The game is being updated by Sony’s new Argentinian studio, QB9, who have taken over development duties from original coders Idol Minds.
Sony revealed the new version of the game at the Brazil Game Show and said “all the original content and gameplay mechanics remain intact,” including the multi-player bowling mode.
Presumably they will make money from selling new characters to catapult, Sony released nearly forty flingable humans for the game including Fat Princess, David Hasselhoff, Buzz and George Takei.

“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
