This is a bit of an oddity here at the Weekend Console Download Deals. It's not often that a game launches for free, but if you're a PlayStation Plus user, that's certainly the case for Foamstars. Square Enix's multiplayer foam-spraying fest launched this week and if you're a PlayStation Plus member, it's all yours for no extra charge if you claim it before the end of the month.

Elsewhere, PlayStation's Critics' Choice sale is now joined by PlayStation Indies, featuring many top indie gaming hits. Xbox's Lunar New Year Sale, meanwhile, is joined by the start of Anime Month, featuring the best anime titles from across gaming. Nintendo's Jump-start January has ended, but be on the lookout for some deals on newer Square Enix hits like Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince and Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai.

Here's our selection of this weekend's console deals:

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
