| Quote: | Happy holiday wishes from all of us at SCEE!
I’ve hopped on the blog a couple of days early to give you the chance to prepare your wallets for the Festive Sale, which will run from 22nd December to the 5th January.
We’ve got loads of fantastic offers for you, new titles and old, to help you swell your games collection this holiday, spanning both PS3 and PSP from a wide selection of publishers. You may have noticed that some publishers are not involved in this sale – while I won’t go into details yet, I’m sure you can figure out what’s going on and if not, all will be revealed in the new year.
But enough about what’s not here – let’s focus on what is. There’s a great selection of PSN titles on offer at some great prices, including around 50% off Joe Danger, Worms 2: Armageddon and Lead and Gold. We’ve also got half-off on episodic titles with Blue Toad Murder Files and Tales of Monkey Island – perfect if you’ve passed on them so far. We’ve also got a couple of classic PSN titles in the form of Bomberman Ultra and Burn Zombie Burn! And at these prices you have the perfect excuse to revisit them. minis are also in on the action with six great titles available for only £1.74/€1.99
We’ve also got a selection of titles from some of the biggest publishers in the gaming world who have gone out of their way to offer you some early Christmas presents in the form of some fantastic discounts.
Disney has slashed the price on Toy Story 3 for PSP and are offering you 50% off all the expansion packs too. They’ve also gone all Christmassy with half-off The Nightmare Before Christmas Premium XMB theme.
EA has gone all out by bringing you discounts on their incredibly awesome DeathSpank titles, as well as massive reductions on Dante’s Inferno and Need for Speed: Shift for PSP. Theme Park and Theme Hospital? One word – Fantastic.
Namco Bandai have done us proud with 25% reductions on two almost new titles: DeadStorm Pirates for all you rails-shooter fans, and the mighty Pac-Man Championship Edition DX. If that weren’t enough they’ve dropped four of their classic PSP titles by 50% – including Tekken 6 and everyone’s favourite handheld driving game…it’s RIIIIIDGE RACER!
SEGA are not to be outdone either (everyone say thank you to Mike) because they’re bringing us Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode One at almost half-off, Sonic Adventure and After Burner: Climax at 50% off and even Valkyria Chronicles 2 gets the half-price treatment.
Square-Enix have dropped the prices on all their Tomb Raider content, including Underworld for PS3, Legends and Anniversary for PSP and the original Tomb Raider for PSone. If you missed the frankly fantastic Space Invaders: Infinity Gene when it released, it comes highly recommended at 30% off.
Ubisoft have bundled together some of the best PSN titles, old and new, at compelling prices and have cut the costs of PSP racing to round off the new year with price drops on Asphalt Urban GT2, Driver ’76 and Street Riders.
There’s also a few classic PSN titles of our very own on offer – take a look at the full list below.
I’m out of space but I’ll be back on Wednesday with the final PSN Store update of the year. See you all then! |

Joe Danger and Pacman DX might tempt me if they're cheap enough. I wish the EU blog listed AU prices since it covers us too _________________

Everybody should buy Lara Croft. Its an amazing game, great graphics, great action, and has co-op. Its one of the most surprisingly good titles of 2010, in my opinion.
I want Scott Pilgrim, but I dont want Voodoo Dice or Turtles in Time, so pass on that. I might grab Pixeljunk Shooter.
There's a few games I want on PSN, but its a shame none of them are on sale. _________________

I picked up a few games from the sale.
Theme Hospital
Sonic 4
Tales of Monkey Island
Monkey Island was an awesome saving, from $28 down to $14.45. There is a problem though, when it says you get the full series, you only end up downloading Chapter 1. So the guys that run the store need to fix it. _________________

DAMN, Lilo and Stitch for $3.45....Me and my sister used to LOVE that game on PS1....What's $3.45 anyways? An Iced Coffee....And for some reason these cheap Disney games make me wanna put on the Nostalgia goggles and buy them/play them again....Even though they are subpar. _________________

Sadly there's nothing really there that I want that I don't have.I wouldn't buy PSP games off PSN even if my PSP had a screen that isn't broken.
The only thing that I really have any interest in that I don't own is Deathspank: Thongs of Virtue.But I never finished the first one so there's no point in getting the second one. _________________ Welcome to the internet. Where any joke can turn into WWIII.

Yeah, the only game on that list which interests me is Guardian of Light, but I already own that game (I agree with Jarrod, it's quite a nifty game).
Oh well, better luck next year...? =S
