    amazon.it is retailing for 159 Euro - seems like a steal but then you gotta factor in memory...
    But tempted.
    Keep an eye on the site it went up to 168 for a few days and dropped back down 2 or 3 days ago.

    Thats a pretty good price really. Are the memory cards big money?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,830 ✭✭✭✭Taltos


    Still are quite a bit more than standard memory. One of the main things putting me off - like 32G is 85 Euro there. Crazy when you can get a 1Tb HDD for around the same price.. Rip off city - but proprietary so can understand why, just don't like it.

    I've 'purchased' the games I want from the store, & they seem to be in my recent transactions list on the XMB...do I need to do anything more?

    That should be it. You should also seem them in your "Download" list. If you don't [and it would be strange], kick off the download, then cancel it after a few seconds. I've never had to do that.

    Anyone who has a Vita NEEDS to play Virtue's Last Reward when it comes onto Plus (although they should have played it already :p). I would say it's an even more interesting story than Walking Dead offers once you adjust to its truly unique pace and structure. It has more than its fare share of quirks - especially when it comes to the puzzle gameplay - but it's easily one of my favourite games of last year.

    Although Wiki the plot of its DS predecessor Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors first!

    Decent update, although again not a hell of a lot for me. Already bought The Cave (which alas doesn't live up to its potential), although will probably give Okami HD a whirl to see how it makes the graphical transition.

    Its a brilliant handheld that you need to own to really appreciate it. I'm currently addicted to persona 4 which is amazing.

    I can't find the games that are set to expire but do have some of the games set for April, any way to get the old games? Wouldn't mind Mortal Kombat...I'm not sure if it's different because I've a Canadian account, do we get different games?

    Yes it's different games, the North american store doesn't get told what they're getting as far in advance as we do.

    Amazon.it might be cheaper elsewhere but this is new not second hand like others.

    Personally not that excited by these games, but I guess it can't be great every month
    They have to give you a couple of bad months, gives you a chance to play all the stuff from the good months


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,543 ✭✭✭✭Varik


    Can't see any mention of it but there's the PSN pick which is Killzone HD and Infamous festival of blood for €19.99 but for some reason as I can't find it listed anywhere it's down on the store as €12.49 until tomorrow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,640 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    Gonna be like the days of Christmas sale except for Easter, new deal every 48 hours. There is a week long sale as well but mostly kidie disney games.

    Hoping Dishonored makes it into the big sales, ragin I didn't pick it up last time.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭sin0city


    Spring sale isn't great alright but still some stuff that might be worth a look at these prices:

    Child of Eden (Not available in Bulgaria, Hungary, Qatar)
    Was €14.99/£11.99, now €4.99/£3.99
    Additional 10% off for Plus subscribers

    Driver: San Francisco (Not available in Bulgaria, Hungary, Qatar)
    Was €14.99/£10.99, now €7.49/£5.99
    Additional 10% off for Plus subscribers

    PixelJunk Monsters
    Was €4.99/£3.99, now €2.49/£1.99
    Additional 10% off for Plus subscribers

    Trine 2
    Was €11.25/£8.99, now €5.49/£4.49


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,320 ✭✭✭weiland79


    Will be picking up driver at that price


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,670 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Today's egg hunt is Tomb Raider for €29.99 (with the usual great exchange rate with UK price being £19.99)

    My guess is either Revengeance or DmC being a later offer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,060 ✭✭✭Jikashi


    Hoping for a big chunk taken off Ni No Kuni sometime in this sale. Also The Unfinished Swan, which I missed out on at Christmas because you couldn't get it discounted if you already own Journey

    Still, pretty good offer. Too good for me to pass up! Its a large file though, near 13 gb

    Includes some DLC as well apparently, if you're into that sort of thing.

    It has some of the guns from the Hitman series, a multiplayer map, and a new mission as dlc.

    And today's Easter Egg Hunt is Playstation Allstars Battle Royal on PS3 for €19.99

    Cross buy too so you get the vita version also.

    Godd price, I just doubt i'd play it that much. Having a vita is the only reason why i've been thinking it over.

    When does the month roll & the new games collection become available?

    Usually the first store update of the month, so Wednesday here in europe and Tuesday in the US; the 3rd and 2nd respectively.

    But more stuff changes throughout the month rather than the first update.

    Leaving PS Plus in April:
    3rd April: Mass Effect 3
    3rd April: Mortal Kombat
    3rd April: Guardians of Middle Earth
    10th April: Metal Gear Solid HD Collection

    Wish there was something better for Vita.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,600 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Damn Americans are getting Disgaea for Vita for their plus, hope we get it cheap sometime in that Easter egg deal, I wouldn't mind paying €19.99 for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 779 ✭✭✭jaxdasher


    American Psn+ is getting Demon Souls. They finally are getting something good. Though I want it too.
