Maybe we should gather all of the info from the PS blog on what is likely/not likely to come up. Off the top of my head we have:

Not coming:
PS+ subscription
Dragon's Crown

Likely to come:
TLOU
AC:BF

I hope we'll get a new deal for Sony Music Unlimited. The service is ok, the Apps are pretty bad but 12€ for a year was a steal.

with BF4 being 50% off, I hope ACIV is too, then I can trade in my physical PS4 version and get the upgraded digital for a reasonable cost.

You wanna make sure how big AC4 is for PS4 before you consider this...

what do you mean? I have the game on disc so it'll take the same amount of space if I download it digitally.

I just bought BF3 on PS3 for £25 and then instantly bought the £10 PS4 upgrade - I have no intention of ever installing the PS3 version, but £35 for BF4 on PS4 is a pretty good deal

My prediction for today: Assassins Creed 4 and Assassins Creed 3: Liberation
Click to expand...

I think they'll keep Black Flag until the last or second to last deal. Have it end with a smallish bang instead of a whimper...

Liberation as the Vita game is likely too I think. Ubi would try to get a little more money from Vita owners before they release the PS360 version next year...

Putting Soul Sacrifice up when it's free on Plus later this month? Bad move. Especially considering this even has a 10% plus discount. I think most people would be happy to take their 100% discount in a couple weeks...

Putting SS on offer with Plus discount seems really dishonest to me when it's free next month. Going to catch out a lot of people who don't keep up to date on what's coming to Plus

Beware, Souls Sacrifice is free next month on PS+
Click to expand...

Soul Sacrifice will be free on PS+ on December 24th. So if you wait 9 days you won't need to spend any money.

It's nice for non PS+ Vita users (does that demographic even exist?) I guess.

I'll throw my money at Delta day one, but I don't feel it's worth spending 18 euros in a digital copy when I'll get it in a week.

I went on the website store... Noticed they have a "3 months for £3" deal on there. Not sure if there is a deal for the rest of EU though. Just to clarify I had that deal last year that has just expired.
Was going to subscribe again, but not being able to get it on my Android phone on 4.4.2 KitKat is really frustrating (seriously... Hurry up already).

Is the final version of PES 2014 much worse than the demo? I really enjoyed the demo, but when I looked at Amazon for the price, I saw the impressions for this are pretty awful. What went wrong there?

True, but they have put a 10% PS+ extra discount on top. Sneaky.
Click to expand...

I must be seeing things differently then. If they'd put SS as a deal before they announced the January PS+ , then yes that would be sneaky. But everyone knows SS will be free for plus users soon. Think this deal is for people who don't have plus. Also, isn't the 10% extra added to all games during this sale?

Don't usually get football games digital because 12 month shelf life, but considering this would be the last ever on PS3 and I'm boycotting Fifa this year... do I really want to go football gameless for the first time since 2002. I'm so torn. :|

People seem to forget that you lose the game when you end your sub. Some people still want to buy games as a ps+ member to actually own the game.

Soul Sacrifice is not one of those for me. I'll wait for the IGC update. At least Tuesday is another deal update as well as Runner 2 :excited:

If you liked the demo, you'll like the game methinks. The problem is that while the game is a big step in the right direction, it's also the first one on the FOX Engine and it's pretty obvious that it lacks some polish in various areas (a lot of players don't have their real face since they are re-doing everyone from scratch, AI can be iffy and stuff). The patch from last month helped a bit, and they are adding faces and jerseys progressively via free data packs.

I don't regret my purchase at all, I have loads of fun.

Good one Sony. Sure some people might want to own the game, but i think it's bad timing anyway. Even more during a sale where it's limited to two games every two days.

It sucks that Soul Sacrifice is using up one of the Christmas deals but I don't really have a problem with it for this reason. When Demon's Souls went on sale before it became a Plus game I bought it because I know it's the type of game I want to still have if I ever stop my subscription.
The big difference between these two cases is that when Demon's Souls went on sale they specifically said in the blog post for the sale that it would be a free Plus game soon, it's a dick move not mentioning that for Soul Sacrifice.

Sales/prices on vita are a fucking joke...
one a day is some sort of christmas bonanza?... walking dead for 10 euros woah it's that game I already played 6 months ago for 6 euros on steam...

saw terraria is now on vita too, 15 euros... I already got this over a year ago for 2 euros...

Someone in the rpg thread recommended an rpg to play, I go check it's been out for a year and costs 40 euros.
Fourty euros for a year old handheld game...

Same goes for the remake of the disgaea ps2 game...

Between the memory card prices and the game prices and total lack of any decent sales gaming on this thing is way too expesive.
I'm gona just look for second hand games, no money for the devs but at least I get a reasonable price
