Sony's Got March Madness as Loads of New Offers Begin on EU PlayStation Store

EDF EDF!

For me

In my best Richard Richard - "Bloody helllll!"

Do people in the EU/UK follow US college basketball or is this in reference to some other March madness that I don't know about?

@rjejr whack into Google 'mad as a March Hare'
Lovely, more back log.

Yes, The Last Guardian. I've been waiting for that to go on sale again, so I'll be sure to pick it up. Just looking at my wishlist, the current discounts for Yakuza 0, Gravity Rush 1, Nioh, 428 Shibuya Scramble, and Dragon Age Inquisition are also tempting.

Anyone who wants The Last Guardian, get it. It will blow you away

Always check prices online before buying. KH3 is £6 cheaper on Amazon.

@Miles_Edgeworth It is just a boring boss rush in an sad empty world. Some of the bosses are pretty cool, and it was probably great on PS2, hence the good reviews, but without nostalgia it barely deserves 6/10.

The Order: 1886 - £7.99

I might well take them up on that. Already had it and got the Platinum, but I loved it. And they added the photo mode after I traded it in.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi

Thanks for the info. Did not know that. So do people use the phrase "March madness" to refer to Spring Break like activities? Assuming there is Spring Break over there of course.

You did make me think of a movie sequel that really needs to get made.

Night of the Lepus 2: Mad as a March Hare

@NintendoFan4Lyf And you are 100% right, I got them mixed up. My bad
I won't be getting it either way. Not risking another disappointment.

@JoeBlogs I'd been thinking the same thing for a while and after months of preamble, just decided to get it with dlc for £20. Can't say it was a bad choice, as I have, since best the main campaign in coop with a pal, and made a start on the extra content. It's as enjoyable as I thought it'd be, and still no sign of it for free! But you're right... Time is running out

@crimsontadpoles had dragon age on ps3 and loved it, even thought the multiplayer element held up pretty well with mates, and have been tempted to pick it up again on ps4, with the price of sale (£3?) it's ridiculously good value for the size of the game, and how much there is to do on it. One of my most enjoyed rpg's of recent (I use the term loosely) years

@NintendoFan4Lyf Never had a PS2, so I didn't have a chance for this. I might get the last guardian if it gets much cheaper, like £6-7, but at the moment I still have many other games and not enough time to clear my backlog

I can’t believe The Order 1886 still hasn’t been a monthly PS Plus game yet.

@rjejr it appears here and there, most famous is probably Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland.

@rjejr Mad March hare as in madness not US sports

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi "Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland"

Isn't the Mad Hatter "mad' b/c hat makers used to get mad from dipping their fingers in mercury to make the hats? Nothing to do with March there that I can see.

@Izoma "Mad March hare as in madness not US sports"

Except the blog post doesn't say "Mad March", or anything about "hare's", it says "March Madness".

"New PlayStation Store discounts start today: March Madness, PlayStation Retro, Games Under €20, more"

"with our new March Madness promotion"

Yakuza 6 is very tempting but waiting for definite confirmation on 3,4 and 5 as I want to play them in order. Plus I’m trying very hard not to add any games to the backlog unless I absolutely have to play it.

@rjejr haven't looked into it but assumed him being a Hare played into it.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi The Mad Hatter isn't a hare, the March Hare is a hare, the Mad Hatter is an old man. I think you confused the 2, hence my confusion.

@rjejr 😂😖 whoops, my bad, I haven't watched it or read it in many years, the Johnny Depp version looks atrocious.

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Johnny Depp is a strange dude. I like him in some movies, but I'm never watching his Alice or Willy Wonka movies. That Willy Wonka remake was so unnecessary, the original is a great classic. I'm never watching Jim Carreys' Grinch either, that cartoon is my favorite Christmas special. Some things should just be left alone. Same for the new Dumbo, man that looks atrocious, I think the Mad Hatter and March Hare may have made it. I'll be rewatching my DVD cartoon.

@rjejr because anyone in the UK would not associate March - Mad or Madness with an American sport. You can probably watch videos on YouTube of hare's fighting one another (re: the hare in Alice in Wonderland - the hatter because mercury was used in hat making which exposure caused insanity).
