I feel like the PS4 has reached Steam status for me. My dashboard is full of 5 dollar games I've played for like 20 minutes, and when I went to add Game of Thrones I apparently own and have the whole season installed.

I agree only because I caught myself telling a buddy online that I'd probably just pick up (insert title) when it goes on sale next time on the psn store.

Sony might seem like an odd choice of companies to "get" the Steam-Sale tactic but its working on me a little too well.

You reached Steam status and dragged the PS4 down with you.

I filled my Pro hard drive after three months just on sale things. I don't think I have paid full price for any game I own.

edit: I keep buying things to put on a theoretical near-future hard drive

Really from what I hear, the quality of the steam sales has dipped (not as many insane deals) while consoles have been getting better deals, I would say they're almost even now these days with steam.

Nintendo is the only one that's behind.

I'm tempted by RE7, FF15 and maybe Tales of Beresia from it. I usually buy physical though but usually when PSN has a sale like this, Smyths and other places will drop their prices, so I can sometimes grab what I want from there. :v:

Didn't expect to buy anything this sale. but I've already put 3 items in the basket. Dark souls 3 season pass. KOF XIV new fighters. PaRappa the rapper.

All the Miku games and packs on sale bewilder and confuse me. Which are you supposed to buy :psyduck:

DoA is hilarious. They have the game on sale, as well as the pack that unlocks all the characters in the F2P version. And the "story unlock" DLC. That's pretty confusing, you know!
I might also pick up MvC 3 Ultimate. The new game seems more like an excuse to buy DLC and you never know when they decide to pull it from the store, AGAIN.

Does Wild Arms 3 hold up at all?

This is the main pack that gives you like 100+ songs

The season pass gives you all the Encore stuff too.
Because of the weird way it was released you also need to download the 'free' main game.

It's a fun game but those packs have always been insane. They don't hold a candle to train simulators, though.

This confusion is bumming me out. I love music games, but I've never followed Hatsune Miku, so I really have no idea which of the two big song packs would be worth buying. Whichever one has more OSTER Project songs, I guess.

Then again, I probably shouldn't dive in at all, since my brain can only handle vocaloid for like 10 minutes before poo poo starts to melt.

You should make an EU or UK PSN account. Having multiple accounts on a PS3 or PS4 is insanely easy to do and you can still get trophies and play the games with your NA account. I don't want to take a chance and miss out on a $6 Yakuza 4 and $7 KoF XIII

e: also yes, we're in bizarro world and the UK gets cheaper games than continental Europe now
