Rumour: PS Vita Getting First Birthday Sale In Europe

Although Sony have removed the page in question, it looks like the Vita will be treated to a first birthday sale on the PSN Store soonish. Picked up across the web, the now defunct page listed a few games that would be on sale, although no sale prices had been applied.

looks like ill be buying rayman digitally if priced right.. I hate getting digital games & the physical copy is only $20 but what can i say? im cheap & the game is great so im buying it when this sale hits

I agree, and it's not because you're cheap. You just want an equal deal. Why would I buy a digital $40 game when I can Buy it for half the price in the store.

They really need to stay on top of their digital prices, because many times they're all over the place.

That being said I guess we're due for some Vita news at this Feb. 20th meeting. Maybe a price cut ($189.99), new model (16GB + 4G, android marketplace), and steep game discounts to get people on board with the Vita.

tubers4098d ago

Android Market place!? That's highly unlikely.. but I'd buy another VITA just for that..

Wallet vote for Sony's awesome move if so. :D

@tubers

It's not as unlikely as you think. Sony and Google have had one of the greatest relationships in the industry, and both have helped one another by launching multiple devices built by Sony running Google software.

Sony published games are already cheaper, so Third Party has to jump on :)

1nsomniac4098d ago (Edited 4098d ago )

Im not sure which of these 1st party games you mention are cheaper. No digital games on the Sony platform have ever been cheaper than their real retail price to my knowledge..

SamPao4097d ago

actually EVERY single one of them has been within the last year at least.

EVERY Game that has been on PSN day1 is selling for less than the Retail Price

LBPKarting, 10bucks less
Uncharted GA 7Bucks less
Wipeout 2048 3 bucks less
the list goes on.

at least in my country

Gridloc4097d ago

Add to the fact most digital games are allowed to be downloaded on 2 systems....

Kalowest4098d ago

WTF, why need lower the physical copy prices too, I don't want the digital copies.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5215d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212115d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5215d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5215d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani15d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum16d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman16d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim16d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

I disagree Batman
