jstew9 · Nov 20, 2012

Well, this deal is going to get me to pick up a Vita from Amazon on Friday.

Kinda sad but I still want hard copies of all 3 games (for 'permanent' ownership) -- if any enterprising CAG is wanting to sell/ship to me as a pack let me know, I'm betting I'll pay a better bundle than GS will.

wtsutton · Nov 20, 2012

[quote name='alwayscheaper']As excited as I am for plus on the vita, I'm way more excited for episode 5 of walking dead. I never would've played this had I not got the first 2 free but I was instantly hooked and look forward to wrapping this up and get the easiest platinum ever.

[/QUOTE]

Agree x1,000,000. I can't wait to play it. IGN gave it a 9.5 and said the ending is amazing. Prepare to shed man-tears.

Backlash · Nov 20, 2012

[quote name='gettinmoney662']Where did you get that idea?[/QUOTE]

Free for Plus Members

If you haven’t revisited these two Genesis classics in some time, or perhaps even better have never experienced them, you’re in luck! Plus members will be getting this Sonic Bundle which includes Sonic 1 and 2, free. Upgraded for a great look on an HD screen and PS3 Trophies to boot; see where one of gaming’s heroes got his start with this bundle.

I think I read too much into that.

allen9917 · Nov 20, 2012

Does anybody see ps+ on their vita?

o0achilles0o · Nov 20, 2012

In case anyone wants them I have a 16GB and 8GB Vita memory card that I'm selling off. PM me with an offer - PSN credit, PayPal, whatever.

zewone · Nov 20, 2012

Is the Persona sale over? I plan on getting a Vita this week.

[quote name='FriskyTanuki']http://www.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/music-unlimited/internet-radio/

They specifically say it's the premium plan that's on sale, which is the top tier plan.[/QUOTE]
So they did! I need to L2R... I'll probably set up that free trial and give it a spin. I can't imagine I wouldn't jump on that for $12 a year if it's anything like spotify.

Yanksfan · Nov 20, 2012

I am fully hopping on the Sony bandwagon. Picking up an Assassin's Creed Vita bundle this BF, already picked up MGS Collection and a 16 GB card in anticipation of getting it. Picked up a PS+ membership and now will definitely do the Music Unlimited subscription as well.

jacknicklson · Nov 20, 2012

That music unlimited subscription is too good. Gonna test it out on my phone to see how it is

EDIT: To add, if you sign in using your PSN account, it automatically gives you the 14 day trial

tylerh1701 · Nov 20, 2012

More Ultimate Edition Full Game Sales going on. Prices looked very lame to me.

Also:

Purchase anything on PSN from November 20th through November 26th that collectively reaches or exceeds $60, including our new Ultimate Editions, and we’ll give you a $10 PSN Wallet voucher in December! This voucher will be delivered via an XMB message on December 6th, and will need to be redeemed by January 6th, 2013.

I kind of lucked out on this one, because my internet was down last night I couldn't download the game show games I wanted. So I bought them this morning, so I've already spent $15 towards this.

jacknicklson · Nov 20, 2012

$10 voucher in December if you spend $60 11/20-11/26

gettinmoney662 · Nov 20, 2012

Hmmm, good news is that free $20 we got is likely to count towards that. Do I want to spend an extra $40 for $10 back though? Ehhh, I shouldn't be spending money especially since I just splurged on myself recently so I'll pass, unless they have an awesome sale for this week.

jacknicklson · Nov 20, 2012

A $40 Playstation All-stars plus ratchet pre-order would be the only way I am spending that much on PSN in the next few days

Derextreme · Nov 20, 2012

damn, i was going to buy persona 4 off psn, but i bought it at best buy with a $30 cert i got last week.

yeah, the ultimate editions look pretty weak to me. 2 plus free games, a game that comes with all paid dlc when you buy it, another game that comes with most dlc when you buy it, and none of the prices are really that good. i wish they'd just bundle the dlcs together for these games instead of bundling the full game. that, or make 2 separate bundles for the full package and the dlc package. only thing i really need out of those is the deus ex dlc.

cmgakahotboy · Nov 20, 2012

i know it will be frowned upon in these parts but i purchased all of the game shows other than hollywood squares. should be a good investment for family time.

wilflare · Nov 20, 2012

is there anyway to do PSN shopping online. like a desktop browser?

Definitely not frowned upon by me. I did the exact same, except I also skipped Price is Right Decades because I had already played it on Xbox. I enjoyed the couple games of Who Wants to be a Millionaire I played this morning.

That can't be the thanksgiving sale, can it...? No mention of..."thanksgiving".

EDIT: Actually, there is. In the first line. Oh well. Music Unlimited & some Sega stuff seems good enough. Plus, the vita+ update for everyone else. Can't have it all.

dabsac80 · Nov 20, 2012

So is music unlimited only for streaming music? I'm interested but only if I can download the songs on to my iphone. I Dont have the data to stream

Tsel · Nov 20, 2012

Man, those full game prices are incredibly lackluster. I can find physical copies of those for much cheaper pretty much anywhere and if given the option, I'm always going to choose a physical copy over a digital copy as long as the physical is the same price or cheaper.

[quote name='autobot']I dont think you can play the freebie games once your sub ends. Not even sure if u will have access to play it once you let it lapse and start a sub again. Best to ask this forum for definitive answers.[/QUOTE]

I'm aware, that's why I said I don't plan to play any of them any time soon.

Do you think guys that Tokyo Jungle will get a discount in this sales?

KneeKnee · Nov 20, 2012

I was really hoping I could download Gravity Rush to bring to work with me today. Grrrrrrrr

I think Walking Dead is the only game that could make me take a break from Black Ops 2 right now. Looking forward to platinuming that.

There's a Spend $60, Get $10 Back promotion going on between 11/20 and 11/26:

Not too shabby, eh? But that’s not all: we’re giving you another chance to save on PSN. Purchase anything on PSN from November 20th through November 26th that collectively reaches or exceeds $60, including our new Ultimate Editions, and we’ll give you a $10 PSN Wallet voucher in December! This voucher will be delivered via an XMB message on December 6th, and will need to be redeemed by January 6th, 2013.

I hope they keep doing these since I tend to spend the money anyways.

Edit: And they say that spending the $20 from the last money back promotion counts towards this, so that is very enticing.

I'll be picking up P4G at $34.99 or $39.99(not sure how much it'll be) so that's most of the way there.

If memory serves, NIS sale is this week as well? If so, it'll be even easier than I thought to fill out the last $20 or so to take advantage of this promotion.

Yeah, so it's basically spend $40, get $10 for those of us who haven't spent it yet, which is a better deal than spend $100, get $20, but still. Hmmm, that was a lot of commas.

Seriously man. Periods are needed sometimes! lol

mightymek · Nov 20, 2012

wow...$12 for Music Unlimited is a steal. Pretty much the same thing as Spotify, but to use Spotify's mobile app you have to pay $10 a month, Sony's is included with this $12/yr sale for plus members. That's incredible if you have a great data plan (which I do) and can hook your phone/device to your car stereo (which I can). Plus I assume you can listen on your PS3/Vita and PC as well. First I get an instant games collection with plus, and now an instant music collection for crazy cheap. My plus sub was definitely worth the free games and discounts I receive!

I signed up for the free trial just because, and I am listening to the new Deftones now, and the quality is great streaming to my phone.
