Ooh you like Katamari, Trip? For some reason that surprises me.

by TripOpt55 Thu Aug 15, 2013 12:32 am

I like them though they get a bit old after a while. I've only played a couple of them. They are good silly fun. A good buy at that PS+ price I think.

Not sure if it was recently mentioned, but the http://www.humblebundle.com has a great deal going on for Origin (and some Steam) full game codes for: Dead Space, Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box, Crysis 2, Dead Space 3, and Medal of Honor. Also, if you pay more than the average amount donated (~$5, now) you also get the codes for Battlefield 3 and The Sims 3 + Starter Pack.

I recently noticed The Last of Us was selling at Kmart for $39.99, yesterday, but it's apparently sold out or something because the link no longer works.

Happy gaming!

Best Buy has some really great deals on some classic PS3 games, all for $14.99. The problem, I own all but one of them. From what I can remember these were the games I saw on the app...

Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 1 and 2, LittleBigPlanet Karting, Infamous 2, God of War collection (can't remember if it was the ps2 or psp ones), Ico/Shadow of the colossus, and I think a couple others. The only one I didn't own was Gran Turismo, otherwise a really great deal on some good games.

It's GoW Origins, bret.

Tales of Graces F shot up $20 since a month ago. Xillia madness is probably the cause. With coupons Xillia can be had for $45 and tax @ebgames. $15 over my jump price but a good deal seeing as kay and san really dig it.

Thought id post this here. http://forums.slimgamer.com/showthread.php?2884-GameStop-Trade-in-Values-List-and-FAQ-2013-Edition

It's a list of Gamestop trade-in values. It's for the most part fairly accurate I think. Gamestop has been giving out coupons for 50% bonus credit so i looked through and am gonna trade in a bunch tommorow when i pick up SRIV. Hoping they have CEs for that available if so I'm getting a real Dubstep Gun Very Happy

Is there a 12 GB PS3? Well, I know there is one, because I went into another Wal-Mart looking for something, and looked in the case and saw a 12 GB PS3 for $199. How long has this been out there?

Just asked my girlfriend who also works at Wal-Mart and it came out yesterday apparently.

by lenny.b Tue Aug 20, 2013 12:05 am

I barely had enough room on my 80GB system, and to see that a 12GB system exists baffles my mind.

by Krubixcube Tue Aug 20, 2013 1:41 am

You could always buy it and a cheap laptop HD and upgrade it yourself though I guess?

by pspiddy Tue Aug 20, 2013 1:52 am

I thought there was a zero missing when I first read about it. I don't even know if that model supports HDD swaps. Spending so little extra nets so much more everything.

Free Killzone Mercenaries beta for PS+ subscribers.

by pspiddy Thu Aug 22, 2013 12:19 am

Guacamelee is $7.XX for plus.

by pspiddy Fri Aug 23, 2013 1:22 am

Rain is up on PS store for pre-order $15.

by pspiddy Mon Aug 26, 2013 11:46 pm

Xillia CE in stock @Amazon.

by pspiddy Tue Aug 27, 2013 1:25 am

Retro City Rampage, Journey, Tokyo Jungle $3.75 each for plus with tomorrows update. All jump prices.

by BretBaber Tue Aug 27, 2013 8:59 am

I'm excited about Dragon Fantasy Book 1 for $2.50.

by pspiddy Tue Aug 27, 2013 10:11 pm

Wally World has a PS4 bundle up on their site for $517.96. It includes a game and a controller or camera.

by pspiddy Wed Aug 28, 2013 11:12 pm

Buy 2 get 2 all used Nintendo games @Best Buy. This is a good sale for those of us wanting to beef up the 3DS library before the inevitable poke'mon launch purchase. Although I think everyone here but me owns one...

by BretBaber Fri Aug 30, 2013 10:14 pm

I fucking knew it. Next month you get Rayman for Vita free. That's why I try not to buy anything on the Playstation store, because whenever I do it's just free the next month. Happened with Costume Quest and now Rayman.

by pspiddy Fri Aug 30, 2013 10:45 pm

It is difficult to deny the sale prices Sad

by avidacridjam Sat Aug 31, 2013 12:32 am

I don`t regret spending $7.50 on Rayman Origins. It`s so worth it.

by BretBaber Sat Aug 31, 2013 1:10 am

I don't regret it either, but it's kind of a low blow to have it as a free game when you just put it on sale 2 weeks before.

by avidacridjam Sat Aug 31, 2013 6:12 am

It does feel arbitrary but I just can't feel dumb or duped for having paid for it. Think of the poor sob who missed out on the sale before; now he/she can get it free. It's a case-by-case basis, of course.

by Miraculous Kaydybug Tue Sep 03, 2013 2:45 pm

If you buy FFXIV and register before the 9th they are giving 10 extra days free due to the server issues which are supposed to be sorted outt today.

Not really an amazing deal but i thought id mention it

by pspiddy Fri Sep 06, 2013 12:37 am

Poke'mon 3DS XL pre orders are up @ebgames. Status @Best Buy is "coming soon".

by Krubixcube Sun Sep 08, 2013 10:33 am

Can anyone tell me why Rayman legends is $20 god-damn dollars cheaper on Steam than it is on PSN? That's ridiculous. I'm going to buy the PS3 one so I can play it on the girlfriend's projector but I feel cheated.

by BretBaber Sun Sep 08, 2013 11:34 am

I don't know how much the Steam one is, but you'll be disappointed to know a couple weeks ago it was on sale for $5.

by BretBaber Sun Sep 08, 2013 11:34 am

Nevermind, I meant Origins.

by ajapam Sun Sep 08, 2013 12:37 pm

It's cheaper because... I dunno, PC games. I also got a free copy of Origins for pre-ordering Very Happy

by lenny.b Sun Sep 08, 2013 5:22 pm

Yeah, PC games are almost always much cheaper than console games. :\ It's kind of sad.
