The 12 Deals of Christmas!

Tokyo Jungle is a steal at that price. I put together a pretty positive review for it here:

Don’t worry, once your yearly sub runs out the games will say 90 days left once your 90 day sub kicks in.

i did the same thing and after research apparently the expire date of games just doesnt update upon getting a stacked membership, but it wont actually expire on that date. the best way to check how long you have is under account management, i cant remember the exact path but it was under ‘services’. hope i helped.

Nuts. The buy screen said Plus discount price but then when it actually bought the game it still took £5.19.

And I didn’t realise this game was over 4GB. I should have checked but it didn’t seem like the sort of game that would need so much HD space…

@ #52 zxRATTLExz, #53 Terarded

Thanks guys for the information!

**MESSAGE TO ADMIN**

Why is it you can get these deals on the store in the morning, yet when there is other store and PS+ content deals to go on store, we have to wait untill between 1500-1700?

For those of you who haven’t purchase Tokyo Jungle then this is a fantastic deal. Unique title to say the least

@ Chris

If you do secure a discount deal for Batman Arkham City DLC then please try & make sure that the combined total is less than £14.95 otherwise there is no point! You can purchase the GOTY Edition with all DLC for the price that I mentioned.

Am I the only person that misses the good old days where Sony would send you goodies for Xmas/birthdays?

Still I’m going to be buying this when the discount kicks in

Also it would be nice to discount the game first and then the add-ons although I understand you’ll likely get less money that way… but happy customers will most likely spend their savings on something else (assuming they actually had the extra to spend in the first place)

When’s the Remote Play patch for this actually turned up?

All I want for Christmas is PSN digital downloads and Blu-Ray games to have cross-compatible save files! Makes no sense that they don’t.

how about some vita loving feeling left out

how about some vita loving feeling a bit left out

Will PS+ subscribers get a discount on the Batman: Arkham City DLC? I asked this last week and was supposed to wait on a reply.

ZACHSP8 56 @ = kontent unlock by date ( lockt by key untile date )

but i also not understend why them canot do to normal update so we have ore tings + – 12 :00 miday so lots of pers. can enjoy their dowload almoast ful day ( place u stuf day before in store on background , unlocks + – 12 :00 / why not update every day instead of everiting in once ??? more peopel in store every day .

also like others = ps+ beter then wen ith louncht
sony top priority = rendabel ( no bankrupt )
playstaion priority = corect prices in store + corect way of converting from dollar to euro
geting kontent out like al other consoles = not 1 jear later
giving service u promised wen u louncht ps3 ( video service )

+ no more leting big ip geting excl. to other companie
like monsterhunter – gta – dragon quest ….

@Overlord1304
Some games do have cross-compatible saves actually.
For instance, I downloaded the digital version of Red Dead Redemption when it was free with PS+ and that works fine with my save file from the disc version.

continu = gta not jet but u are capebel to leting even gta slip

I’m feeling mixed about upcoming deals. Hitman, MOH, Far Cry & NBA. They will likely be another Battlefield style deal with price reduced to just above retail price.

@ Overlord1304, acridweasel. The only game saves i’ve had trouble with seem to be EA games, Dead Space 2 and Burnout Paradise didn’t work me. Red dead,Just Cause 2, Res Evil 5,Borderlans, Dead Island, Dead Rising2 OTR, they all worked for me and i’m sure i have more as well.

@PIREDERAS
To find when it expires, go to Account Management – Transaction Management – Service List – PlayStation Plus

I bought a year subscription in the last deal and it stacked for me. As long as yours says it expires on October then you should be fine.

I’d like to get Far Cry 3 at a discounted price but I don’t see that happening to be honest.

I somehow hope that Sony will have an additional x-mas sale besides those 12 candidates. That simply isn’t enough, especially considering that there are just 2 PSN and no Vita games.

Platforms as Steam manage to offer several games each day, be it as daily deals or flash deals and not to mention that they usually drop prices for around 90% of their complete content library by 20-50% besides those specials.

So far I’ll only pick Tokyo Jungle and maybe Unfinished Swan, depending on its price. Both the 2 exclusive PSN titles … in case that SCEE didn’t get the hint: *nudge*

Bought PS+ 3 days before the deal.

Typical.

Aaaaargh! I actually bought this last night. There’s no chance of getting my £5 discount I missed out on back is there?

Guys, why do you buy games or services for the full price when you must know that sales are just around the corner? Either wait till x-mas passed by or don’t complain if you paid too much.

You’re in luck sir, Far Cry 3 is the final deal (23-24th).

No doubt the discount will be terrible though, and it’ll still be cheaper to buy on disc.

I cannot buy Tokyo Jungle!!!

are you working on this issue and when will it be fixed?

will the deal be prolonged due to this?

@dark_angel6 @69

there is no option named transaction management and I cannot find Service Lists anywhere,

does anyone know where it is?

Will we get some great PSVita deal the coming days???

Like LittleBigPlanet for Vita with a nice real Christmas present discount like this Tokyo Jungle game got?

Now THAT would make my Christmas!!!

ni no kuni demo = u are abel to download
latest adition – new this week

very good now i can dowload then i can play ( vert sad no ful game )

@Alan2112, 68
Weird because my digital copy of Borderlands doesn’t read my disc-based saves. Burnout Paradise as well (as mentioned). Haven’t tried RE5 yet as my HDD is full (damn + for all the games)!

Will get One Piece if there’s a decent enough price…

if anyone hasn’t bought Tokyo Jungle it’s a really good deal.

it definitely looks like the next one will be One Piece Pirate Warrior (really hope it is a good deal as well but not holding my breath)

will wait for the Unfinished Swan – hoping there would be The Walking Dead but maybe in the new year

I’d really like to see Journey on sale. It would be an amazing X-mas gift. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

Hi Jawad,
I read that Milestone has released free DLC for their WRC 3 game on the playstation Vita but I can’t find anything in the store. I am accessing the EU/Greek store. Is there any information on the subject?
Will it be available?
Thanks

@Chris Howe

Seems like you are somewhat reliable, so I’m gunna bring this up here (I contacted the support and I cannot use the hotline). I bought Mass Effect 2 on the 1st while using the trial for Plus members. I didn’t redownload the game cause it’s advertised as not needed.. Back in the game a few mins later it kicked me out and said my trial expired. I ended up being charged again when I downloaded the game. So now I bought the game twice but only got it once.. The transaction is listed in my account and I forwarded the infomation to the support including my PSN ID etc. I want a refund, after all I didn’t get what I paid for!

I’d be nice if you could look into that..

xath23
good idea psn suport on blog !!! 24/24

other mistake , lol them are coming
1st icone terraria ps3 ful game = video ( ful game means i can dowload )
second icone = anouncement ( trailer ) = video
gta v preorder = no price no abel to pre order ( already preoderd in real store 60 € )

@monoliet

I’m in contact with the support since the 1st.. they just work so damn slow and I’m just trying to speed things up. Chris Howe stated in several comments he’s having contact with the PSN team etc. So whats wrong with me trying?

@chris

appreciate your candid reply to comment 48 but what about PSP and PS1 games?

that’s now 3 sales in a row with nothing for vita.

Ps, lemmings is free on ps mobile (at the moment, may change) if anyone’s interested.

xath23

no problem
like i post = need suport on blog 24/24 where we can talk to peopel who put tings on store ore peopel wo can do refund wen them have made problem whith downoads .

@monoliet

Ah.. sorry mate I thought you were being sarcastic. my bad. Yeh I agree, they need some sort of support chat.

no no i never sarcastic if u are not to me

jes to sony sommetimes when them make lots of mistakes ( makes me angry ) i have love hate relation whith sony .

@MasLegio
Transaction Management is found inside Account Management. It is the 3rd option.

Here is the order they are in:
Account Information
Redeem Codes
Transaction Management
System Activation
Facebook
Privacy Settings

Maybe you have a different name for it seeing your in a different country but the image beside the name looks like 3 circles connected with the last 1 being shaded.

Inside Transaction Management you will find Services List as the last option. Hope this helps

Now Tokyo Jungle is a good deal :]
I just got Vita yesterday and now I’m kinda sad there’s not a single deal for that, but at least it motivated me to get PS+, even if only to get the free Vita games, so I’m happy with that :]

I haven’t been on the store yet but I seriously hope that the list of deals turns out to be false. Don’t me to sound whiny or entitled but this looks pretty bad.

A lot of people will be getting games like Far Cry 3 and Hitman for Christmas anyway. Seeing as the games are £60 anyway, I don’t imagine they’ll be any less than £40 and will probably be more than that.

I remember reading a post by Chris saying that the sales were going to be exciting, but it certainly dosen’t look like it’s going to be.

The sales would be better if it was discounting PSN games, or HD remakes like Killzone, Okami etc. I honestly don’t see why they don’t try and discount the games that people actually ask for rather than trying to sell overly expensive digital versions of retail games.

I don’t remember reading anyone asking for a discount for Far Cry 3 or MOH.

@TASHBOY
Well it is rather easy to not remember reading such comments, when you ignore them. See #70 for someone asking for Far Cry 3.

I agree that the selection isn’t really representing the interest of the majority of customers though. TJ is great, Unfinished Swan too. The rest probably not so much.

the store allready started updating downloading vanquish now from igc hey chriss how about some new avatars

meant avatars for plus chriss
