Huge Savings Part 2: PSN Store Edition

There’s a LOT of content on sale right now at the PSN store. So much that I’ve had to place it all after the break AND in quotes to really make the list pop-out. My PS3 is set to be back by friday morning and I’ll be getting the L.A. Noire Complete Bundle (even cheaper at only $24.99 thanks to my PS+ sub), Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X, Age of Booty, Breath of Fire IV, Dino Crisis 2, Cyberbots and Earthworm Jim HD.

Releases for the Week (December 12th-18th)

Welcome to the last store update before everyone gets “sick” and has to spend “time at home” to recover… with all the games we’ll be getting on Christmas (you DID remember to be good all year long and already bought the milk and cookies with double chocolate mint, right?).

Week two of “Operation No Retail, No Lies” is in full effect. This time around, we only get two new PSN titles, 3 minis and one PSOne Classic (although the word classic is a bit of a stretch for the game we’ll be getting). One of the minis, Orbit, is a game we’ll be reviewing this week (short review= very fun game worth your money). Another one is Prehistoric Isle, a game that I spent so much money on at the arcades they should be giving it to me free of charge. Of COURSE I’ll be using my PS+ discount to buy it tomorrow as soon as the store update goes live.

We’re getting several retail to digital releases and one of them shines more than the others. L.A. Noire. Not only is it a great game (you can read the review right here), it will also be released in a digital bundle with ALL DLC included as well! But wait, there’s more! PS+ subscribers can purchase it at a discount so be sure to check tomorrow for the final price on what will definitely take you away on a very, very interesting journey.

Releases for the Week (December 12th-18th)

Christmas is so close we can sorta taste the rainbow. Publishers know this, and thus have decided that was already been released will be good enough of an option to fight for our holiday purchase attention deficit disorder.

There are NO retail releases this week. There’s only two new releases on digital format: ONE of them is a PSN game and the other is part of the minis category (and you can read our The Marbians review right here) release that is new to the US. What is the rest of the content, you ask? Digital releases of retail games.

Jump, jump, jump with joy as we take a look at how the next couple of weeks will be for “Releases for the Week”.

Break it!
