I'm confused. Why is the Plus price higher than the sale price for some games?

Edit: because they got the prices wrong on the original site. Go to the link for the corrected price.
 
[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Yep. I was just gonna grab Pixeljunk Sidescroller myself for $1. But the sale prices are already gone, even though the page still says they're 'on sale'.

Oh well.[/QUOTE]

Sidescroller was actually $5, if that makes you feel any better. I was going to get Racers and Shooter.
 
So if the prices have changed already, that means the update should be out soon. Not sure what's coming out this week, but if there's anything you really want, you should be able to find it via the search real soon.
 
[quote name='Backlash']Sidescroller was actually $5, if that makes you feel any better. I was going to get Racers and Shooter.[/QUOTE]
Ahh ok. That's why I didn't buy it then. As it stands I still have to finish the original Pixeljunk Shooter AND download both the second one(and Eden) which I bought during this sale.

So I'll have more than enough downloadable games to play through for right now. Not to mention I have to finish up playing co-op on Trine 2 with a buddy of mine in a couple of days.
 
Ubisoft sale is pretty awesome. Might bite on From Dust. I heard it got pretty frustrating towards the end. Any thoughts?

Also, I highly recommend Prince of Persia (2008) for that price. It is such a sorely under rated game. For less than $10, you should buy it without a second thought.

Or if people are like me and want a physical copy of a game, they could go to GS and get the 2008 PoP game for the same price used as they'd pay for it on PSN. At least that way they have something they can sell if they get bored of the game or don't wanna keep it forever.

i might get outland and might and magic.

i loved Juarez but after so many retries on the hardest difficulty I froze during an autosave and lost all data. this was during PSN outage and I had no backup. I decided not to restart and traded it in.

I wonder if the psn version is prone to freezes.
 
Wait....someone actually liked Call Of Juarez: The Cartel? :shock: I thought that game was one of the biggest turds I ever had the displeasure to own and I've owned E.T. for the Atari 2600.:razz:

I thought it was fun. I played with a friend, so maybe that helped. It wasn't wonderful as far as quality, but it was a good time, which is important to me when gaming.
 
:( Nothing on that sale I really want that I don't already have. Oh well, guess I'll just get Sonic 4 episode 2 all by itself today.
 
[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Yep. I was just gonna grab Pixeljunk Sidescroller myself for $1. But the sale prices are already gone, even though the page still says they're 'on sale'.

Oh well.

Also how the fuck is MSRP($59.99) considered a 'discount' on the downloadable version of Saint's Row 3? :lol:[/QUOTE]
Because it was $47.99 for PSN+ last week.
 
[quote name='mpaullin']Ubisoft sale is pretty awesome. Might bite on From Dust. I heard it got pretty frustrating towards the end. Any thoughts?[/QUOTE]

From Dust is really awesome, I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. Campaign-wise, I only had problems with 1 level (the 2nd to last one). But there are good guides online if you've just had enough and want to move on, or even just get a hint on how to start a level and go from there.

I played a little less than half of the challenges, but most of them are pretty easy from what I've read, except for one REALLY REALLY stupid one, which caused me to give up on the challenges.

[quote name='the_ENEMY_']i might get outland and might and magic.[/QUOTE]

Outland is really awesome! Grab it for sure!
 
[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Wait....someone actually liked Call Of Juarez: The Cartel? :shock: I thought that game was one of the biggest turds I ever had the displeasure to own and I've owned E.T. for the Atari 2600.:razz:[/QUOTE]
Considering the COJ title thats on sale is 2 which should be Bound in Blood

He probably wasn't talking about The Cartel. Bound in Blood was actually a pretty good game
 
I'll probably pick up Outland and Beyond Good and Evil. Both games I've been meaning to play. Beyond Good and Evil is already sitting in my steam account, but I'm pretty sure it's a shoddy port.
 
WTF, the store is updated already !?!?!? Why such an early update, you bastards! Oh yeah, it's Sony, they can't do anything right, like publish the store later like it usually is and like any competent company would do. Way to exceed my expectations you non-slackers.
 
[quote name='Argive']I'll probably pick up Outland and Beyond Good and Evil. Both games I've been meaning to play. Beyond Good and Evil is already sitting in my steam account, but I'm pretty sure it's a shoddy port.[/QUOTE]

The PSN version of Beyond Good and Evil isn't exactly a great port. None of the glitches from the original release were fixed, it froze my PS3 a couple times and I've heard of worse glitches. It's still retained the same quality though and I'd suggest buying it for the current price. I don't think there were any major improvements over the PC version, except for maybe widescreen support.. can't remember if the PC port had that.

http://www.gamestop.com/ps3/games/prince-of-persia/71601[/QUOTE]

I agree with always preferring physical copies . . . BUT, the PoP PSP games are all Vita compatible, which means you can play them on the larger, richer screen. This would be a big reason for me to pick them up as downloadable titles; playing PSP games on the Vita is a whole new experience for those games.
 
[quote name='tylerh1701']Yeah, the Store update is out. 50% Goldeneye Reloaded for PS+ would be nice, except it's laughably priced at $59.99.
[/QUOTE]

Uh, it IS 50% off.
 
[quote name='SuperMario64']Well crap I need a PSN card. Anybody know of some sites that offer the code through e-mail?[/QUOTE]
GameStop does.

Best Buy sells download codes as well.
 
[quote name='Nohbdy']Uh, it IS 50% off.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I know. Sorry, my wording in my previous post wasn't great, and I understand how you could have inferred something different than what I was trying to imply.

What I meant was that 50% off $40 would have been something to consider. 50% off of $60 for a digital version of a 6 months old game is never gonna happen.

In checking with Amazon, I guess the game still retails at $60, which is just shocking to me.

[quote name='mcdaking84']no rayman[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the confirmation. What I figured. Morgan Haro and Grace Chen need to communicate more.
 
[quote name='JJSP']Because it was $47.99 for PSN+ last week.[/QUOTE]
That's considered a 'sale' price on the digital version of a game? I guess. I'm kinda shocked that SR3 hasn't dropped to $39.99 new for retail copies by now, since it's a THQ game and usually just like Ubisoft titles they price drop fairly quick.
[quote name='kinney_bmx']Considering the COJ title thats on sale is 2 which should be Bound in Blood

He probably wasn't talking about The Cartel. Bound in Blood was actually a pretty good game[/QUOTE]
Ah. I never played that one since I could never find a cheap copy when Target clearanced it a while ago.:whistle2:#

I know. How dare they actually do shit before Doomsday for once. I guess maybe I'll have to temporarily retract my statement from last week about the updates taking forever.;):razz:

One would first need a Vita to be able to play compatible games on said system. Unfortunately the Vita is still currently $200 too much for my liking for a handheld.:booty:
 
[quote name='Magicman103']so umm wheres the psp version of pixeljunk monsters? I cant find it on the vita store or on the ps3 store.[/QUOTE]

I see it on the PS3 store. It's in PSP Games > PSP Games A-Z > P-S > PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe

Maybe it only shows up for me because I already own it? Either way, it was supposed to be updated today to allow play on the Vita... no idea what happened with that.

For those wanting Scott Pilgrim for PS+, note the price of the complete edition compared to the regular version.
 
Did they just release the PS2 version of Max Payne on the PSN? I just saw it on the front page so I assume it's new. Huh, didn't remember hearing about it coming out. I might just pick it up.

I'll probably pick up the Scott Pilgrim Complete Edition too since I haven't had a chance to play the game yet.
 
[quote name='jwk94']Hey guys, will somebody please check the PS+ section for me? Is Rayman: origins up, or was that a mistake?[/QUOTE]
I listed everything that's new this week.
 
Sweet, go buy Beyond Good & Evil HD, such a fun game. I'm pretty sure this is the first sale on the PSN version.

Anyone recommend Outland?

As for Rayman Origins, I know Newegg had it on sale for $17 once, and it's bound to hit $15- soon with all the $20 sale repeats. And Gamefly had it for $13 previously.
 
[quote name='Magicman103']not only is it not up, but the sale might not even happen at all!

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/05/15/playstation-store-update-239/

look at comment 6[/QUOTE]

[quote name='FriskyTanuki']They've said before that it's coming 5/29, not today. Whoever put together the list just copied the original PS+ post.[/QUOTE]

Here's the direct link to Comment 6, and copy/pasta of Comment 6:

Morgan Haro:
I’m afraid this sale was pending at the time of the blog publish and is not moving forward. I can’t confirm whether this is still coming, but the Store team is working on a great deal. My apologies for the misinformation above; we’re outlining a process with all the Plus goodness that’s always on the table to ensure that the publish on the blog is accurate.
Click to expand...

Though Rayman is probably still coming on 5/29, I gotta agree with Magicman that, per Morgan's tone, the 50% off deal doesn't sound like it will be coming. Which is good news for me because it sounds like they're working on something else instead, and $15 was still to rich for my blood for a digital version of Rayman Origins.
 
I read it. I'm just saying the previous stance on when it was coming out.

For Vita people, these are the new PSP games and Minis that have been added to the PS Store on the Vita for direct download:

PSP Titles:

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas (UbiSoft, Inc.)

Do it!

[quote name='Kazaganthi']Sweet, go buy Beyond Good & Evil HD, such a fun game. I'm pretty sure this is the first sale on the PSN version.

Anyone recommend Outland?[/QUOTE]

I've said this about 3 billion times, but caution to anyone that uses inverted controls, try out BG&E demo before buying and make sure you can deal with the camera.

As for Outland, buy it! Wonderful game!
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']I read it. I'm just saying the previous stance on when it was coming out.[/QUOTE]

Ok, didn't mean for my comment to sound like it was directed entirely at you (although after re-reading, it really does, and my apologies).

I was more posting because I know very few people read the PS Blog comments (and I don't blame them because they're full of whiners) so to get that info up here may be helpful to others, and help temper disappointment on the 29th.
