EU PSN's 12 Deals of Christmas 2013 starts on Dec. 1st

United Kingdom:
Olympus Has Fallen
SD: Was £3.49, now £0.99
HD: Was £4.49, now £1.99

Boo!

Also, RAIN is decent but very trial and error based and quickly loses its appeal. You'll find yourself struggling to find the motivation to finish it...
 
So Lone Survivor any good? Whats the actual gameplay like?

It's a 2D side-scrolling psychological adventure. The location is like the hotel or school from Silent Hill; there's a degree of freedom to explore, but you have to find your way around a solve puzzles to advance. There are monsters to avoid or shoot, but ammo is very limited and usually hiding is the best option. There's a lot of emphasis on what is real and the psychological stability of the main character. Calling it Silent Hill 2 in 2D is literally the most perfect summary I can come up with.

Check out the launch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xtt0ZezljHk

Is Lone Survivor cross-buy?

Yes.

EDIT - well, it certainly used to be, but on the web store it does not mention cross-buy at all that I can see.
 
I've heard so much good about P4G since I bought my Vita a couple of days ago that I just have to buy it now. I had brushed it away as a Japanese Sim-Dating type of thing.

Let's hope it gets on sale so I really can check it out.

Hmm, tempting. Thanks.

It is cross-buy. Just bought the Vita version now and the PS3 version is also in my download list.

That's a small side thing used to give more character development and increases their abilities too.
 
This year's deals have been meh for me. Nothing appealed to me so far. Hopefully the last three can make up for it. :/

PS3:
ACIV 90% off
GTAV 90% off
TLoU 90% off

Vita:
P4G 90% off
Dragon's Crown (cross-buy especially for this sale!) 90% off
Killzone Mercenary 90% off

Sale redeemed!

EDIT - (to clarify, the above scenario is hypothetical)

50% off a full priced retail game is good.

50% off a £10 PSN game is meh and a waste of a deal to me.
I disagree. 50% off retail you're looking at around £25 for a game which you can most likely find for around the same price in shops and have the benefit of selling/trading in in the future. 50% off a PSN game which you can only really get on your system digitally from the PSN store (Amazon too, but it remains to be seen if there are any good discounts on there) seems like a better deal to me.
 
Lone Survivor is tempting.


I'm probably getting it too.


So far got Spelunky and Walking Dead. Pleased with both and I only hear good things about Lone Survivor.


Here's hoping on a discount on TearAway too and I'll be a happy chap!! ^_^
 
I'm happy that I got MGS HD and Rayman Legends on Vita, so it's been a good sale for me. Hopefully, if BioShock Infinite goes on sale the season pass will go on sale too. Would love to get the three DLCs for that game at a good price.
 
Discount on dragon's crown please.

Don't think this will be happening at least not on the Vita, pretty sure I remember one of the Sony people responding to a request for it with something like "it already had a discount on launch" So as much as I would like to see it come to the sale, I don't think it will be.
 
Three deals left and we know that TLoU, Black Flag and P4G will be appearing in at least two of them...

Is that from hints dropped by the guys who run the blog? I thought they also suggested someone hold off buying BioShock Infinite too.

I hope ACIV is about £20, but I expect it'll be £30 or thereabouts. The Last of Us will probably be the last game, and I expect that will be £20.

Lone Survivor is one of the games I wanted, it's good to have gotten at least 3 games out of this Christmas deal. It would be so awesome if Persona 4 is also in this sale like some say it's being rumoured. Then there is Dynasty Warriors Next. Those are the only 2 games that could realistically be on sale. I wouldn't mind Batman, but that's probably too recent for it to make the cut. Okay, 3 more deals left, keep it up SCEE!

Sony, give me Assassins Creed 3: Liberation for £9.99 and I will bite. Even though I have heard mixed views on it, for that price I will give you my dolla'
 
Thought P4G was for PS+?

My mistake, thought he was referring to it being in this sale...

Yeah, I'm sure he mentioned P4G in relation in this sale but perhaps it was Plus.

Anyway, BI might be in the sale too? That one passed me by, but it looks like we then know the last three PS3 games at least.

Black Flag, BI and TLoU...Black Flag will probably be £30 to £35, TLoU might drop to £20 as it's hit that price via a couple of retailers and BI...anything higher than £15 makes it overpriced and not worth it...

ACIV will be £29.99 like Bf4 I think. Still makes it tempting to get the PS4 digital upgrade for an effective £39.99

We don't know if it's sale or PS+, my guess is sale, they can still squeeze a lot of money out of it before "giving it away".

Were any of the deals cross-buy? Really wish Sony made them easier to spot...

Gonna pick up Rain as the first game in this offer - I wished Speunkly was the PS3 version
