I know your thinking what the h-e-double hockey sticks does Capcom, the PS3 and PSN have to do with fast food? Well, the answer is...nothing. However. Capcom IS offering up some series deals on their digital libraries for Playstation 3 users via PSN. This Labor Day, you can purchase either the basic combo pack of five Capcom titles for $29,99, or you can pig out and go after the eight-game super size combo pack for $59.99. That is quite a savings over the standard pricing model for the individual titles. As for the titles involved, check out the list below because these are any old games:

The Super Pack ($49.99):
*Super Street Fighter II HD Remix
*Flock!
*Age of Booty
*1942
*Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando
*Super Puzzle Fighter 2 HD Remix
*Rocketmen: Axis of Evil with the It Came from Uranus pack included.

The Combo Pack ($29.99):
*1942
*Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando
*Super Puzzle Fighter 2 HD Remix

Even though no experation date was listed for the deals, it would probably be wise to consider the pricing for a limited time only.
