Latest PS Store Sale Offers Nearly 600 PS5, PS4 Mid-Year Deals

Katamari Reroll for £8.24! That's me sorted.

Not entirely surprised to see Hood get a discount so soon, but it makes sense. I reckon we'll see that make its way to Game Pass and PS+ before the end of the year.

Wow i’ve been waiting for Danganronpa 1&2 to go on sale but now they’re announced for Switch on a cartridge, i’ll get them there instead!

Every single PSN sale just reminds me of how massively overpriced digital games are. A few decent deals, like Tales of Berseria at £7.99, but not much to get excited about when comparing these sale prices to what you can save with physical discs.

Anthem for just over £2... ouch

I'm hoping Outriders is a Plus game for July as it has been on GP from day 1, I am keen to try it out!

I don't want to buy anymore games, I need to finish them rather than adding another one to my backlog 😂

@Kidfried And that isn't even including shipping times, potential loss of parcels, damage to the casing/disc etc.

People just like to hate on Digital as it's slowly becoming the most popular form of purchasing media these days and people who love collecting or were raised on it see it as someone taking over their traditions.

I think both forms have their place in the industry and I just wish we could stop this pathetic squabble on gaming forums over this.

P.S. (Love the Twigs Profile Pic!)

My system is working great. Like many I couldn't buy a PlayStation 5, so I decided to play through my back catalog & buy game's like AC Valhalla, Dirt 5, Immortal Fenyx Rising etc once I got a PS5. Now I've got my PS5 i already own some PS5 game's I've never played, and some PS5 game's are now on sale. In a way getting a PS5 5/6 later has been beneficial, looking forwards to seeing what's on sale.

@DonJorginho Agreed, we don't need to have this argument in the comments section of nearly every weekly PS Store sale article.

How on earth is the Order 1886 still going on sale for £17.50!

Nothing on here for me this week thankfully!

I have more digital games than physical but if it’s a game I really love then the digital won’t do, I have to get the physical.

You’d think it’d be the other way around so I can sell games when I’m done with them.

Hope I'm not falling for no sales this time. It's the culprit for most backlogs.

@thefourfoldroot that didn’t take long to find someone whining about digital software prices.

@thefourfoldroot seriously. We get it

@AgentGuapo
Agreed! So fed up with this. As for me, I've just bought Project Cars 2 as I'm really enjoying Project Cars 1. I know I'm late to this party but that doesn't make these games any less amazing (graphics, physics and sound design are still great in both cases).

@naruball It appears that Sony doesn’t.

@gollumb82 Enjoy! PC2 is a great game with loads of content and much better then PC1 imo. It does take some fiddling with menu settings before you're properly up and running though, but that's no different from PC1.

@Flurpsel
I'm actually interested in doing a direct comparison as I've played some PC2 on PC and I found some stuff that PC1 does better (rain comes to mind). I'm still going to enjoy the hell out of both and pray that Project Cars 4 returns to its sim roots!

Decent price for relatively new NieR Replicant, which I’ve had my eye on, but my backlog has me nowhere near having time to play it yet so I’ll wait. The buzz for the game has been more subdued vs NieR Automata, so I’m apt to have patience before trying it out.

@naruball
Ok, thank you for your confirmation of my point I guess 🤷‍♂️
But seriously, if an outlet mentioned a sale on one digital channel, but failed to mention a far better value sale elsewhere, would you not consider it worth pointing out? Same deal here.

@AgentGuapo
Well, to be fair, the article is specifically about digital software prices…

@kidfried Ultimately, I have no problem “whining” continuously until platform holders offer a fair digital price/resale option, etc.physical prices are far cheaper, especially when taking into account resale / trade-in value.

But yes, some digital sale prices are OK. So Alien Isolation is £6, whereas physical it would be £5, but I’m happy to pay a bit more for the convenience. Just not 300% more as is standard.

Anthem for £8.39!

How are they still selling that when it's broken and abandoned? 🤔 If they took CP2077 off...

@Mostik hope you get to try it out sooner than later. Recently read it's got a lower playerbase than cyberpunk on steam. It's got peer 2 peer connections and granted that I don't really know what that's all about wouldn't wanna say they might pull the plug soon as I don't know if that's even a possibility but it is looking that way. Mostly because it isn't a live service game, and there's still no dlc plans.

@Paranoimia I think that's odd as well, disintegration is still being sold....

@Daleaf 😆😆 Sales are so tempting, hard to resist, you keep piling and piling and piling and piling them up with not enough time to actually play them.

@Mostik If you want to try out Outriders, there's a pretty hefty demo...

https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP0082-PPSA02284_00-3452094931313045

Personally, I didn't rate it.

@Cherip-the-Ripper That would be a shame to see it die so soon after release but the looter shooter market is getting very crowded and I thought it was a live service game so the marketing perhaps wasn't quite right. Seems ideal for PS+!!!

@Paranoimia thanks for that I didn't realise the demo was still up 👍

@thefourfoldroot every time? No.

@LiamCroft sarcasm?

I wonder is Assassin's Creed Valhalla is discounted at least 50% 🤔 thanks for the heads up on the sale

@naruball
Whether it’s seen “every time” on every article, sometimes, or this is the first time, varies by reader and is not under my control. Doesn’t impact the validity of the point at all though.

@thefourfoldroot just because you have an arguably valid point, doesn't mean you have to make it. Not always anyway. Vegans learn that the hard way.

@naruball
I agree. But just because you are here all the time, doesn’t mean others hear these arguments constantly. And it’s only like 3 times I’ve said it. Maybe other people making the same exact point makes it seem like a constant flow to those here a lot.
Still, I’d happily say it in every relevant article across the internet if I had time, eventually the pressure of many voices can prevail.

@Mostik I would absolutely love to see outriders on PS plus. It looks like a brilliant game, I watched a buddy stream it on PS5 and it looks amazing!

@Daleaf same here, my digital library is Soo robust I have a back catalog of games that can last me a year or more which is awesome. I also appreciate that I can buy a game digitally & my wife and I can BOTH play the same game at the same time. If we had to buy every single game twice there's no way we could afford to play the amazing games we can play

@thefourfoldroot 'Still, I’d happily say it in every relevant article across the internet if I had time, eventually the pressure of many voices can prevail'

It'll just mean there are more eye rolls, more like.

@gollumb82 yeah same here. I think it'll be a proper sim though because the PS5 doesnt have one yet.

Need to reduce backlog. Need to reduce backlog.
....
Oooh RAD is very cheap and maybe something I'd be into.
...
Guess what happens next.
...
Sigh

@Kidfried I'm in the US, and there aren't many places that sell used games except GameStop - and for most anything that's recent, they knock only about $5 off the retail price. The used market is dry, generally, ever since Redbox stopped renting video games (and then sometimes selling older used ones).

I'm waiting for a bigger discount on Nier - I have too much backlog to play right now to worry about it, though (including some new stuff - Rift Apart and Returnal, very different, each very engaging in its own way).

I have such bad timing. I just bought Nier Replicant for $60 a few days ago.

@cali_kush70 Yeah I want to play it (straight forward platinum too I am told), it has halved in price since launch and was on GP day 1 so I am hopeful it hits PS+ and given the dwindling numbers still playing it should be sooner rather than later 🤞

@thefourfoldroot I'm not here all the time, but nice assumption on your part

It's always easy to spot weak argumentation by looking for assumptions or people making it personal.

Piece of advice: stick to the arguments and, when necessary, admit that you're wrong. The world won't end if you do from time to time.

@Mostik ...don't get too excited. Just saying

@naruball
You should probably start engaging in discussions rather than just trying to insult someone’s critical reasoning skills. Otherwise you are showing yourself to have a very weak argument.

You have already said that I may have a point when it comes to my original comment, so I’ll leave that be.

I can only assume then that you are taking exception to my assertion that I cannot be fairly criticised by you for saying something “too often”, when in an environment where I can be sure most would not have heard me the previous times (I.e. an internet site with many thousands of readers). Sorry. I stick by that. If you disagree so be it, but I see no reason to admit I’m wrong simply because you insult me while offering no argument in refutation.

@KingPev I know mate and I appreciate the notification. FPS are my favourite genre and if the platinum is straight forward I am just hoping it will be an enjoyable 40/50 hours and then delete it 👍

tbh, after looking what's on offer, this sale really is not very enticing, nothing noteworthy is interesting to me 🙄😏

Just snagged jedi: fallen order for little over £13 on the store (with free ps5 upgrade). I'm happy with that!

@Mostik ..to be fair it's fun - just very generic and repetitive, as you'd expect. I played it on GamePass on release so may be better since the updates etc. Enjoy !

@KingPev cheers buddy I hope to, for the reasons you state I am not really keen to drop £30/£40 on it hence I will be pleased if it comes to PS+ Happy gaming dude
