Yes, you should be able to get it until midnight that day (or rather, 00:00am on the 1st September).

The Sony sales tend to overlap on Wednesdays when there's a new one, so yes.
Sorry, typo - I didn't mean to
Played through all 3 of these on PS3. Nocturne ran fine, DDS1 had some issues, some framedrops here and there and out of synch cutscenes, especially early on. That was a little jarring, but nothing gamebreaking.
DDS2 also ran fine like Nocturne IIRC.
Nocturne was the US version and the other 2 PAL.
Sure you want to risk it? Lol.
Might be a long time before it goes on sale again.
I don't think psprices is accurate. i was checking the history on the bundle and it was showing as cheaper than I actually bought it for. I checked my purchase history and it was a few dollars more than what psprices was showing

It depends a lot on how impatient they are to play the game and how bothered they are over a couple of quid, but Atlas games do tend to go on sale quite frequently and I've definitely seen P3P on sale for £7.99 in the past.

I like the look of that Retro sale.
Never really looked into it before, but there's a lot of PS1/2 games on PSN now.
I think I might get a whole bunch of classics like Spyro, Tomba and Klona, since I'll be more inclined to actually play them instead of having to find a working PS1 somewhere
Plus I can try and sell the old discs I have to retro collectors or something, altho my Spyro case/disc is probably too fucked up to be worth anything...

IIRC DDS (1 at least) is a terrible PAL conversion. Slow and squished. Was the first and last Ghostlight game I bought for a long while because of that.
Lucifer's Call has a 60Hz option
75p cheaper
come on
Yeah I'll wait till its a little lower
Thing is I have 5 or 6 huge RPGs in the backlog already, so even if I picked it up here it wouldn't get touched for months and months
I'll take my chances on it dropping to £7.99 or lower in the next 18 months
See above, more of a backlog issue, I'm trying to stop myself from buying games unless I'm going to play them soon. I have 22 games in my backlog already, I don't want to become someone who just buys games and then never plays them

It was 20 off two sales back and remained so for almost three weeks. I would not expect it to drop again with the DLC coming up.

You also have to consider publishing licenses for old games running out. See Dragon's Crown, Trails in the Sky (also Ghostlight!), Wild Arms XF and so many more
Sometimes games disappear without warning and never come back and you wish you bought them when you still could, especially when they were cheap. I'm not sure anyone would go through the trouble of re-publishing old PSP games if that were to happen.

SFV @ £20 is nice, but I bet the disc copy is going to be that soon enough and I expect an upgrade/expansion is in the works any way. Going to pass, but was tempted.
damn missed it... and nobody gifted me the game..

So any recommendations if I should pick up Wild Arms 3 or Arc the Lad: TOTS. Might as well jump to another PS2 RPG after I'm finished with Rogue Galaxy. Or are those two games poo poo?
I also realized I have bought almost every PSOne classic there is on EU store over the years minus a few ones I have no interest in lol. It's a shame they stopped releasing them, hopefully a new wave will come with PS4 some day. They usually have some great discounts too.

As a complete beginner to fighting games (used to rent Tekken with buddies back in the day but...), how much will I realistically get out of Street Fighter 5? I have a huge backlog already but it's all tending towards longer games. Something multiplayer and casual I could pick up and play for a couple of rounds might be great, but money's a bit tight and it's hard to know if I'll really get into it or just give up after a week or two...
Wild Arms 3 is a great game - I can't remember where it fell down on the 50hz/60hz side of things but at the very least I thought it looked great. Only thing is it does have an issue where it crashes in battle - I only had it happen to me once but I think it's triggered more frequently by certain locations or spells so it might get worse later. Not a deal breaker necessarily, but worth researching and finding out which parts of the games you should be careful in and save often.

imo it is one of the better jrpgs on the ps1.
Preferable to play the ps2 remake, but since that's not available, this is your only hope for a portable wild arms game.
AW Zombies has Bruce Campbell.

Definitely worth it with the season pass. That's exactly what I'm buying.
Damn I must be the only person with no interest in buying any PS2 or PS3 games.
You're not alone, this sale isn't great for me either.

I got Downwell, Mana Khemia and Phantom Brave
They were all on my wishlist so I'm pretty pleased

I was just looking through the sale and noticed Riptide GP: Renegade is 33% off.
It is basically Hydro Thunder (with a few Wave Race elements), and a really good version of it too. As a fan of both those games I really liked this. Worthwhile if you are looking for something to pick up.
The only thing it is missing is a cool announcer,

Just wondering on the Persona 2 + P3P bundle, it says on the store page that this is "PSP only" and won't let me buy it from the vita. It'll let me buy both games individually (more expensive) but not the bundle.
Is there a way around this to play it on vita or do I need to get both separately?

It's a great game. Ugly as sin, but a great game.
I picked up SFV and Mark of Kri. Good stuff.

Just set non essential buttons to the touch pad and you're golden.
If I remember correctly, the games are still individually downloaded, so if you purchase the bundle you should be able to select either game from the Vita store and download.
Odd the bundle isn't showing up on the Vita store for you.
