I know. Coming up to the end game of Persona 3 and Can't buy P4G just in case.

Probably false hope, but just maybe...

Tizoc · (12-03-2013, 08:18 AM)

Apparently the new deal will be Spelunky at 50% off.
The game is cross-buy IIRC, but the store hasn't updated with it yet.

pslayer666 · (12-03-2013, 09:37 AM)

anyone cracked their system yet and found out what the next 11 deals will be, like last year?

I don't want to wait, I want to know so I can plan ahead :P

got some pretty cool deals last year:

Journey/Swan combo
Far Cry 3
Borderlands 2
Tokyo Jungle

the wife wasn't happy :P

my body is ready for that update

Hasney · (12-03-2013, 09:42 AM)

Cheap portable Spelunky? Oh good lord...

ebullientprism · (12-03-2013, 09:44 AM)

Oh snap. This is perfect. I need Spelunky on the consoles as I am getting rid of the 360 soon.

Now we're talking.

How do you find out when your PS+ expires? I keep buying when it's on offer and I think I'm subscribed until the end of 2015. Just want to check in case they do a discount on PS+

There should be an expiry date on the items you've acquired (for free) through PS+. Otherwise you can check services under account management > transaction history on your console.

Kinan · (12-03-2013, 09:51 AM)

So its

Diablo 3 (PS3) from 59,99 € to 39,99 €

and

Spelunky (PS Vita) from 14,99 € to 6,99 €
with extra 10 % for PS Plus

Jubern · (12-03-2013, 09:52 AM)

Hmm, not interested, I guess I'll skip this too.
Good for people who wanted it though!

Oh thanks, that doesn't sound too bad actually for Vita owners.
lol @ that Diablo 3 price. Keep in mind the game is more than 8 GB IIRC.

Blablurn · (12-03-2013, 09:58 AM)

Come on Sony. Give us Persona Golden at some point.

6,99 should be the normal price for Spelunky. Still expensive for a sale.

I paid 15€ on impulse buying and if you like it it's worth it - you'll sink countless hours into it.

Miles Quaritch · (12-03-2013, 10:07 AM)

Wasn't Spelunky on sale a few weeks ago? Or was that on XBL?

pslayer666 · (12-03-2013, 10:11 AM)

it was on sale during it's launch, for a couple of weeks IIRC.

I don't think it was.

Not a bad pair of games, although I've already got Spelunky and have little interest in Diablo III. Just another couple of days to wait.

jonno394 · (12-03-2013, 10:17 AM)

Hmm so we're probably looking at around £5 for Spelunky with the PS+ discount, might jump on it.

neodeano · (12-03-2013, 10:18 AM)

I seriously didn't need another game right at the mo.

Buying Spelunky.

Usual SCEE "deal" when digital goods on sale cost more than in retail without sale.

Snowballo · (12-03-2013, 11:06 AM)

Is Spelunky already on sale in PSN EU too?
Thanks.

Not yet, I'll post if the new deals are up. Maybe they'll be up by 12 PM GMT?

Addnan · (12-03-2013, 11:18 AM)

Will buy Spelunky for the third time. Help me.

2+2=5 · (12-03-2013, 11:38 AM)

Spelunky? I would buy it.

HyperMusic · (12-03-2013, 11:59 AM)

Spelunky on sale? Now your talking! I hope Sine Mora and Soul Sacrifice receive price drops as well, that would make me one very happy Vita owner.

I'd also love a discount on Sine Mora for Vita... been considering to buy it for a while.

??? They have loads of great prices on UK PSN. And besides, pricing is down to the publishers, not Sony.

You'll notice EA and Activision tend to be particularly shite with their 'sale' prices.

bjaelke · (12-03-2013, 12:11 PM)

Deal 2:
Diablo 3 (PS3)
Was €59.99/AU$89.95/£49.99, now €39.99/AU$59.95/£29.99

Spelunky (PS Vita)
Was €14.99/AU$21.95/£11.99, now €6.99/AU$10.35/£5.49
Additional 10% discount for PS Plus members

Dantis · (12-03-2013, 12:13 PM)

Spelunky is worth a fiver, right?

Yep, I've gotten awesome deals on games. I remember getting Tomb Raider and Bioshock Infinite on sale, which also happened to be on sale on Steam around the same time, and I paid less on PSN. Ubisoft are also pretty good at sales, I got Far Cry 3 and the Assassin's Creed Collection at really good prices on PSN.

EA and Activision are another story though, but at least EA supports PS Plus with fairly recent titles.

I've got it on 360 and Steam already and would definitely buy it again if they announced a PS4 version as well. So, yes!

Wasn't that on PS+?

Tizoc · (12-03-2013, 12:17 PM)

Deals should go live within the next hour I expect.

GAF will tell you YES. Make sure you update it as the daily challenges are the better part of the game.

OMG Aero · (12-03-2013, 12:25 PM)

I can already tell that all the Vita games in this sale are either going to be bad games or great deals on games I already own.

Protome · (12-03-2013, 12:32 PM)

I hope this sale continues to be games that are available on both platforms. There aren't a whole lot of them and I've been waiting for another Dragons Crown sale after missing the last.

flowsnake · (12-03-2013, 12:41 PM)

So it's definitely cross buy? It's not stated anywhere that I can see.

Blog links directly to the VITA version, so no.

Because you have to buy the PS3 version to get that, or there's no cross buy at all?

It used to be cross-buy both ways, but looking at Spelunky now on the SEN website on the Vita version it says "Compatible with PS Vita only". Maybe they've ended the cross-buy compatability like Playdead did recently with Limbo?

NinjaCatfish · 01:16 PM

Hard to justify Diablo 3, even at that AU$59 price. That's still at the point where I'd probably find it cheaper in a store.

It'd be a great couch co-op game though.

I think I will grab Spelunky however, seems a perfect fit for Vita.

Bufbaf · (12-03-2013, 01:13 PM)

There probably won't be anything coming for PS4, right? :/

Dantis · (12-03-2013, 01:15 PM)

Just checked, and it seems I now have the PS3 version too.

So yes, still Crossbuy.

Why would there be? The system and its game were just released.

If that's true then they could put it at 50 cents and I still wouldn't buy it (as if that would ever happen on the EU PSN anyway). To go back on something like that is such a shitty thing to do because you're always going to fool a bunch of people into buying it with the expectation that it's still there and end up screwing them over.

a) No, they've said it's a PS3 and Vita sale
b) Give it a chance; the damn thing's only just launched!

This isn't the case anyway, so no problems.
