PlayStation Store Brings Festive Treats
Discounts a go-go.
Published: 15:00, 20/12/2010 by Staff.
34It’s Christmas (well, nearly) and Sony have a massive pile of cheap games and deals in their PSN Store sack. Split into publishers, there’s a ridiculous amount of content to get through so we’ll just pick out some highlights, directing your eyeballs to the PlayStation Blog for the full rundown.
First up is a bundle of stuff marked Festive Offers, which includes Alien Breed: Impact for £8.99, the entire pile of Blue Toad Murder Files episodes for £9.99 and the likes of Bomberman Ultra for just four quid. Move favourite Flight Control HD has seen a small drop too, down to £3.19, but it’s Joe Danger that’s the beauty here: down from a tenner to a fiver – a must have summer classic sure to brighten up any snowed in disasters.
There’s some Minis on offer, too – Vibes is £1.74, as is Rocks n’ Rockets, Carnivores, Freekscape and Stellar Attack.
Disney weigh in with the PSP version of Toy Story 3 down to £15.99, EA push out both Deathspank games for £6.29 (from £9.99) and there’s a few PSP games like Shift and Dante’s Inferno on offer too. Namco have the recently released Pac-Man Championship Edition DX for just £5.49 too.
SCEE themselves have some of the best offers – Fat Princess for the price of a Sackboy t-shirt, Pixeljunk Shooter’s £3.19 and JAW’s Gravity Crash is just £3.19 too.
Sonic fans will dig Episode One of Sonic 4 for just £5.49, and Sonic Adventure, the Dreamcast classic, is half price as well at just £3.19, which seems to be the sweet spot for most of these discounts. You can also get After Burner: Climax for £3.99.
Square-Enix are here too – Space Invaders: Infinity Gene is down a couple of quid at £5.49, the latest Lara Croft is £7.19 and Anniversary, Legend and Underworld are all discounted. Likewise, look out for some discounts from Ubisoft – although they’re all PSP games.

“Fat Princess for the price of a Sackboy t-shirt” – only some people will get this :D.
Some alright deals in there, but nothing beats the sales on Steam for awesome deals.

speaking of steam when is that coming to ps3?

It’s not coming to PS3, I think you might be confused with Portal 2 using the Steam servers for cloud saves etc.

Hmmm “Ferrari: The Race Experience (was – £2.39/€2.99 now – £1.19/€1.49)” Was it really £2.39?

It’s a mistake. This reply on the blog…
the correct price for Ferrari: The Race Experience is £11.99/€14.99
The reduced price is £7.99/€9.99

It’s one of the best games on PSN. And now a bargain.

It was good value at a tenner – At a fiver, you have yourself a bargain!

Member since: Aug 2008
I paid full price and it was worth it in my opinion so this is a bargain

+1 I was hoping that this was going to be in the festive bargins! I was about to buy it the other week, when I heard about the Xmas goodies – RESULT!!

Cool, Joe Danger and maybe Blue Toad as well. Good price drops should encourage a few sales of some non-mainstream gems as well

I paid the full price for Blue Toad earlier this month and they are great games if that is the genre that you like. At 10 quid the are an absolute bargain imo.

Think nows he right time to delve in and get the Sonic game then, and in preparation for Move, which a big fat guy in a red suit is bringing me on Saturday I might just purchase Flight Control HD
20/12/2010 at 15:27
Member since: May 2009
Flight Control on Steam is £1.49 right now, which is much better, but if you’re wanting it for the Move functionality then £3.19 is okay.

Am I right in thinking you can play ‘Flight Control’ with the Dualshock3 controller?

I hardly use the PC in our house, I only use it as an extra television really, my missus uses it a lot more than I do and she doesn’t really play games.
Im only really getting it for the move functionality to be honest. I want to be able to show it off to the missus and try and get her into it.

Sorry meant to reply to you also cam the man,
Yeah, it can be used with the DS3 but its apparently not ideal as it was mainly built for use with Move and DS3 functionality comes secondary.

Cheers for that BrendanCalls, I was undecided whether to get it but I’ve not got (or want) Move so will give it a miss.

I’ve been playing it with the DS3 and it isn’t very good. Will try it with Move when i get it for Xmas on Saturday.

PJ Shooter for me – Have wanted to play it for a while, but held off wondering if there would be a reduction close to the release of PJ Shooter 2.
Seems i no longer have to wait as of wednesday! :)

It’s one of my favourite PSN games. So enjoyable. Lovely fluid dynamics. Great music. Classic gameplay. Bloody awesome stuff.
