UPDATE OP

Brothers is actually $7.24 for Australia, $6.52 with PS+. Just checked on my PS3, am browsing the store now.

Is this game actually good? Seems pretty cheap. What console is it on again?

Also are PS+ monthly games changed on PS3? On Vita, it's the same as last month's.

It's a shame we didn't get games like LocoRoco and Patapon up on sale. I would've gave these a try as well.

I splashed out something like £60+ for the Wizard's Edition.

You seldom get to play a game as magical and awe-inspiring as Ni no Kuni.
Oh man I wanted that Collector's Edition so bad >_<
It was sold out really fasted over here :(
Imagine Ni No Kuni 2 on Vita... My body is ready for another Level 5 game. I still haven't even played much of White Knight Chronicles 2... Would love to get Dark Cloud/Chronicles 3 on Vita as well.

Worth getting ME even if I have it on PC? just can't get around to playing it on PC, and if performance is ok I might be more likely to play on PS3

Is brothers the full game upgrade? Still showing as £11.99 at the moment


Thinking brothers, puppeteer and possibly lego Harry potter as it is one of the few I haven't played
 
My Vita received P4G yesterday and it's going to be joined by lots of LEGO very soon. And was going to wait for brothers on ps+ at some point but why wait when it's that cheap now.

I'll just add there, I enjoy both the lego LOTR games for PS3 and vita, but the two are markedly different. The vita version is very much pared down to its PS3 cousin, with tons of content cut, animations etc downgraded, so bear that in mind upon purchase. It's a real nice little handheld game, but you can tell it was a ds port or something. I like both though.

ME is the best of the three, so you decide from there.
 
Managed to get Muramasa and Ni no Kuni. I don't even know if I have the space to install Ni no Kuni without pretty much wiping my hard drive. Oh well

I bought the boxed PS3 version and it came with a voucher with that PS4 code, so i doubt the digital version comes with such a code, but i am unsure.

Good deal if it does ;)

Ah, the PSN page says that the upgrade is for the disc version but you can never be too sure about these things. If no one can conform it I'll just skip it all together.

It's on Steam, XBL and PSN. Everyone who has played it has said wonderful things about it.
Metacritic: (not user scores, critics)
PS3: 85 from 14 reviews.
360: 86 from 56 reviews.
PC: 90 from 9 reviews.

So, the most accurate representation would be the 360 version, as it has the most reviews. 86 is an amazing score, just short of the much eluded 90 as of late. It is on sale on both PSN and XBL. XBL it is a couple dollars cheaper, so if you have both consoles.....

It isn't on sale on Steam unfortunately.
 
Wow were indies banned from this or something :\ was hoping Spelunky, Terraria or Hotline Miami would be slashed. Ah well, might pick up Need For Speed and Locoroco.

Wow, finally a nice EU PSN Sale! The Ni no Kuni price is ridiculously good. Bought the physical version recently though. Will get Okami HD and Muramasa Rebirth!

Except some drops when using the Mako, the framerate is fine during cutscenes or combat.

I have both PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Mass Effect, and the PS3 version is much more enjoyable to play because of the improved framerate and screentearing.

EDIT: I think the Digital Foundry made a comparison....

EDIT 2: yup... http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-mass-effect-PS3-face-off

Yes. It's no Top Spin 4 or Virtua Tennis 3, but nothing else available for the Vita really.

Wait, I was planning on getting 4 but it's worse than VT3? I loved that game. At least, are the challenges as hard as 3?

It's on Steam, XBL and PSN. Everyone who has played it has said wonderful things about it.
Thanks for the info. Seems like the game has ''feels''. I want that. I bought Rain the other day but it didn't give me much feels which I expected. I'm only two more chapters away from finishing it, I believe.

Virtua Tennis 4 is worth it. The game is just suited a lot more to handheld devices than consoles and it helps that this version has the most features. Also still my best looking Vita game, looks absolutely stunning.

Is crysis worth it if i couldnt get into far cry 3?

I didnt like the open ended way you could progress through the game, and I hated the traversal times, is crysis like that?

What'd I tell you? If you followed SCEE's weekly updates, you'd be well used to the constant mistakes SCEE always make.

Still, it's $4.93 on XBL over here........
Better, but not good enough and still supports my argument that PSN in Aus is cruddy.

I checked a few other prices while I was on the PS Store, but they matched up with what was in here.

did anyone test the ps3 to ps4 upgrade with nba, bf4 or nfs?

I'd love to get nba2k14

I can confirm that NBA 2k14 works. Just took a chance after doing some googling. The utterly abysmal Swedish translation on the store page made it sound like only the disc based version worked, it's like they just ran the thing through google translate. Sigh.

Edit: had SEK200 on my psn acc. so SEK184 for NBA2K14 is pretty ok.

I'm thinking about Crysis and Castle of Illusion, but I'm doubting about the price. They're both a couple of euro's to expensive.

Is dead rising 2 ok on PS3? Enjoyed it on 360 and DR3 has me feeling like killing zombs again. Also, does it include 'normal' DR2 or is it a different story?

Already bought brothers, ME1&2 and puppeteer for a total of £27


Edit: ME1, ME2, brothers, puppeteer, castle of illusion and Dead Rising 2 for £34.98 - had £35 PSN to spend so that's perfect :D

OP,

LocoRoco is not available for Australian store. Only the second one is on the store when I browsed and it's not discounted. You might want to update that but wait for another confirmation regarding this.

Anyone else has LocoRoco 1 up on AUS Store?
