It’s a beautiful adventure with a vast environment to explore and story driven quests that will keep you hooked. Read more about Knytt Underground in the PS Blog’s post featuring the Creative Director Nicklas Nygren. Thanks for reading this week’s update.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/...r-anniversary/

Twenty-five years ago, our company launched a game called Final Fantasy. It was the result of a lot of hard work and dedication. It was also the start of a franchise that would go on to capture the hearts of millions of players around the world. As we celebrate Final Fantasy’s 25th anniversary, we look back on a series that contains 14 installments, numerous spin-off games, and all sorts of merchandise. We are always impressed by the love our fans show for this franchise. To celebrate this amazing milestone in the history of Final Fantasy, we’re putting a number of Final Fantasy titles on sale on PlayStation Network, starting when PSN updates tomorrow. For two weeks, the following titles will be on sale in PlayStation Store for 50% off. PSP Dissidia 012 [duodecim] Final Fantasy - $10 Dissidia Duodecim Prologus Final Fantasy - $1.50 Dissidia Final Fantasy - $10 Final Fantasy Tactics: War of Lions - $5 FINAL FANTASY IV: Complete Collection - $10 PS1 Classics Final Fantasy Origins - $5 Final Fantasy V - $5 Final Fantasy VI - $5 Final Fantasy VII - $5 Final Fantasy VIII - $5 Final Fantasy IX - $5 We hope you enjoy these classic titles — the memories they evoke, and the new memories they will create.

Ok, I give up. I'll buy those Final Fantasy games. At $5, how can I resist?

Odd that the PSP titles are more expensive.

Wow that was quick, I was going to buy Guardians of Middle Earth when it came out. Glad I waited.

Of course, the one FF game that's not on disc and I'm forced to buy digitally (Final Fantasy III) is not part of the sale. :(

How are the load times on FF 6? Debating getting it here or on Virtual Console.

Back on the original PSX, the load times were somewhat obnoxious. The most noticeable one was going into the menu screen from the world map, it was a good 3 seconds, which may not sound long but it adds up, especially when you're used to it popping up instantly on the SNES version. They also added a new It was playable, though, unlike (IMO) the PSX Chrono Trigger port, which had atrocious load times.

Not sure if this is any different on PSP/Vita, but the faster disc load option might yield good results. If you're only going to play it on the PS3, then the VC version might serve you better, but otherwise the PSX version is playable and works on portables.

Wow, that's a nice FF sale. If I didn't already have them I'd be all over that.

Heads up: Don't waste your money on Decidia. Go straight for Duodecim (the horrendously named sequel). It pretty much includes the first game in its entirety.

Anybody buy Sly for the cross-buy option and get a friendly 'These discs benefits are coming soon' message?

Wtf is that?

Anyone who has purchased the One Piece: Pirate Warriors DLC Pack, is it worth $7.49?

I'd also appreciate feedback on whether the PSN version of FFVI has improved load times over the disk PS1 version. Does using the faster load times option help at all? Might pick is up even though I already have it on my Wii so that I can have a portable version on my PSP.

I think I'll go for the VC version.

EA game, EA servers. Like on EA's Tetris it loses connection so much more than anything else on PSN, doesn't change that it is a great version of Tetris though.
