It says first PSN summer sale, but I could have sworn they did a summer sale before?
Anywho, pretty much every game on the list is a great buy especially at 30% or 50% off. If you missed out on the following games I recommend you buy them now, you won't be disappointed.
Pac Man DX CE, NBA Jam, House of the Dead 3 (if you like it), Crysis, Closure, Shadow of the Colossus HD, Infamous: Festival of Blood, Killzone 3 multiplayer (the whole game should be cheap by now), Renegade Ops, Catherine ($20), and Trine 2 ($7.49)
Droplitz ($5),
Rock of Ages ($5), pretty much bowling meets Monkey Ball. You roll the boulder down a huge hill filled with obstacles and things to crush, while maintaing momentum to knock down gates to progress to the next level. It's more fun than it sounds, but not for everyone.
Yes the games u PAY for (even if on discount) you keep forever. I know because before I got the year subscription, I had the 3 month one, and when it expired, I got to keep the ones I paid money towards. The ones that were entirely "free" are the ones that stop working. U will know because it doesnt make u agree to the PS plus terms and conditions when u pay any amount of cash on the psn store. Only the free games ask u to agree with each download.
Also, when I check the expiration date of the free games, it shows when I need to renew membership. However when I check date of a game I PAID for (even of it was at a huge discount due to PS+), it shows NO expiration date nor a PS plus symbol when checking information/properties because once you pay even one penny for a game, u own it. It is just an awesome deal.
Also u can keep all PS minis and avatars and themes even if subscription expires. But ps3 and ps1 (and ps2 if they ever give those away) games will lock up and stop working.
honestly, if you don't have shadow of the colossus OR a ps3, it would be more than worth it to go buy a ps2 and a copy of sotc which would all be around 60$ which is the price of a new game nowadays anyway, and after that you would have a ps2 that you could play jak, ratchet and clank, okami, re4, ico, sly, god of war, and other games for ridiculously low prices on anyways, so sounds like a great deal to me
It's actually pretty good, and it's the kind of DLC I like. It gives you more inFamous, but at the same time offers something very different.
You'll want vampire bat flight, to become part of inFamous 3, and Vampire vision is kind of cool, but the DLC is only 4 hours long. But in the end it's worth it.
Festival is worth it. Quite fun and a lot of new stuff but set in infamous world. Bat flying is the coolest thing I have ever seen in regards to fast travel.
Being a PS Plus member, I'm honestly kinda hesitant to buy anything from the PSN now. With the promise of so many "free" games, I'd hate to buy something only for it to come up free a few weeks later.
They made it seem like they were gonna give away free games week after week after week. The things they are doing are pretty cool but they really made an effort to pretend it was going to be bigger.
No, they did not. I fully understood the concept and you should have too. They never said anything like new free games every week. They said 12 free games a MONTH and 3 of them are switched to different ones each MONTH. You made up that weekly thing in your head. 12 + (3 * 11) = 45 free games a year, is that not big enough for you?
12 free games a month would be 144 games free a year. Your equation would also imply that Sony is giving away 3 free games every month for 11 months and adding 12 games at random times.
I know that you know what you're talking about but you're not that good at conveying it.
Probably they won't give us 12 free games after next E3. I'll give you that. But that still leaves us with 36 free games per year if we don't count this initial month. Where else do you get such benefits for a 50€/$/£ yearly fee?
As a ps plus member you get to keep games you spend money on. If you get something for free it's only a rental once your plus is up you either lose those games or pay up for more plus.
That's what my walmart sell catherine for brand new in a box. How's that a deal? My guess is the prices are jacked up and then when they put it on sale its what it should sell for to begin with. Way to go sony. People need to look at what you can buy these full retail games for localy now. This is no deal at all.
Right because Sony has any control over what retailers price their games after they buy them. Sony doesn't list the prices on PSN its the publishers that do. They need permission to do these sales from games by other publishers. If you read the article is says "Atlus will also be running a sale.." so it's Atlus who discounted Catherine not Sony.
The games themselves are great and I bought them on release.
But DLC is rarely worth the money. Don't get me started on DLC this generation. Don't even go there girlfriend. The vast majority of DLC is pure exploitation to counter people buying used by getting more money out of people who already paid 50-60 legitimately on release. It's a waste of hard earned money. Gone are the days of buying a finished product.
This is the first sale they've had I can remember having no interest for me Not that it's a bad thing mind you.
It's just most of the games they have up their that are of interest to me I would even buy the physical Blu Ray disc versions of or I already have them.

I'm serious here. I don't actually know.
I was wondering the same thing.
If it was FREE, then no.....
Anyone know what's gonna happen with all the stuff we buy on PSN/XBLA when the PS4/720 come out by the way?
Never thought of it before.
Also, when I check the expiration date of the free games, it shows when I need to renew membership. However when I check date of a game I PAID for (even of it was at a huge discount due to PS+), it shows NO expiration date nor a PS plus symbol when checking information/properties because once you pay even one penny for a game, u own it.

i donno about xbox tho.
PSN Plus is great.
you keep it.
Also, does anyone know what the 3 "FREE" games of July will be yet?
I've never played the game, but people on here seem to go bat shit mental for it, so that will be the one I purchase!
I might buy Festival of Blood, but other than that I either already scored the game due to an earlier sale, or dont want it.
You'll want vampire bat flight, to become part of inFamous 3, and Vampire vision is kind of cool, but the DLC is only 4 hours long. But in the end it's worth it.
asshole!
You know what does sell alot? Justin Beiber, sales dont equal good
I know that you know what you're talking about but you're not that good at conveying it.
I've been focusing on Starhawk lately, but I'm going to start rotating between Starhawk, Killzone 3, BF3, and MW3.

I blame gamestop.
You should give it a go, it was pretty good.
Not that it's a bad thing mind you.

PSN has been treating me well this year. Then later Okami HD and Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault.
