The Flash Sale starts now and ends Monday, May 5th at 12:00 PM Pacific. What games are you going to pick up this weekend?
Arcania complete tale does seems nice, should i buy it?
Has anyone bought Guacamelee ? Is it cross buy or whatever it’s called, like If i get it for one platform I get it for both?
awwww dude @Chieh Chen you just spoiled the red dead redemption for me
Great sale, even though I don’t want any of them (I’d like to get GTAIV and LA Noire but I think they don’t allow me to revert X-Axis and it’s a deal breaker for me).
This flash sale is a shame…where are the PSN games?…only 4 titles?…damn…just saying cuz I ain’t got nothing to complain about since I got a s**tload of games to play…damn I think I should even thank you guys for putting nothing for me on this sale….so thank you.LOL
@ 101 ps_psychedelic – Bought Guacamelee some time ago and I can assure you that its cross-buy…buy PS3 version and you’ll get the Vita version…and vice-versa.
Man this blows, you put up mortal kombat but it’s not even komplete edition, so theres no point to double dip out of my pc version.
Thank you very much for Bioshock 1 and 2 downloading both now. You guys rock!!
If you haven’t picked up Guacamelee! on Vita or didn’t get Spec Ops: The Line when it was PS Plus, this is the time to do it. Guacamelee is best played on Vita in my opinion (at the moment until the PS4 version arrives ;] ) I haven’t tried Datura or The Raven so I might have to pick these up. Thanks for the Flash Sales, keep them coming.
I really wish to see an Exclusive games sale next time… since I already own most of these games on other platforms.
A sale of PS2 HD remakes (such as Jak & Dexter) would be great.
Is this NA only?
It is a very good sale indeed! even though I bought RDR GOTY a couple of days ago :(
Can anybody confirm if “MX vs ATV: Alive” servers are really shut down?
just got darksiders mini ninjas and guacamele

Another great sale. Already have all the ones that interest me, but still.
@BS peddlers: Please read a few things and find out what you’re talking about *before* posting. It’s simply not true to say that servers for GTA IV or Red Dead Redemption will be shutting down. Certain R* Social Club features and the like won’t work any more, but the core experience will remain intact.
On the other hand, the online multiplayer for some titles like Midnight Club: LA *will* be shutting down at the end of this month. So get to it already!

I just don’t want you guys to miss these deals thinking certains game would be unplayable soon. On the other hand, let the buyer beware: The multiplayer in some titles *will* be unplayable.
Gotta do your research.
Just bought Spec ops with my other account (it had $6 left on it, now I have another $1 to spend. I would love another 99 cent flash sale).
I am happy since I missed getting Spec Ops as I was not a Plus member then. Glad I could grab it for cheap.
I would love a PSone/PS2 classic sale. Most of all I would love PSone and PS2 games on PS4.
Also since I have 2 accounts (accidentally got plus on my wife’s account since it was logged in when I renewed). I would love Vita to be able to support 2 accounts. Right now I have all these great plus games on my wife’s account (this account) but have no reason to buy a vita since my main account (non plus) won’t be able to play those vita games. Multiple accounts on a vita should exist
Overall I am loving these sales.
Sony is KILLING it.
I would’ve never thought I’d leave the 360 so hard and fast (Xbone sits there) since I picked up the PS4.
Now I find myself picking up games on Vita; and even the PS3…
I feel like I’ve returned to the golden years of PS1 and PS2.
BRAVO SONY.
BRA-VO.
man i wish red dead’s undead nightmare was also on sale, any chance that will go on sale in the near future?
If I had the hard drive space, I’d definitely be picking up a few of these titles.
Sorry to be blunt Chieh Chen, but this has been in my head awhile and needs to be said:
Don’t give us that garbage. You people leave the Vita out of that sale, and to the people who bought the Vita who ask why, you respond that those 4 or 5 games in that japan sale are for vita? You NEVER include vita in ANYTHING.
Sony asks: “WHY don’t developers support Vita? *Sadface*”… hmm, I don’t know, YOU don’t even support vita. How many games have you ACTUALLY released on the Vita? Not counting ports or indies? I had a Vita for less than a year. I sold it for several reasons. There are hardly ANY worthwhile games. Me, and many others have proven we do not like Indies over AAA. Where are are AAA? Biggest of all: Where are our first party SONY games? Ape Escape? Syphon Filter? LBP? (LBP Vita does not count. Its basically a port). There are tons more I can list. The Vita is proven to be as powerful as the PS3, if not more, due to its specs and architecture. Why can’t you make it a trend to automatically make a PS3 and Vita version of a game at the same time? Sly 4, PS All Stars, and that one Ratchet game did. Why not anything else?
Sorry, but its true and needed to be said.
Now uh, the comment was too long to say the other stuff so I am double commenting:
Remember how you heavily supported PSP? It got remakes of several hit titles like Ape Escape and Medievil. It got huge original hits, and was heavily supported by third parties. Vita? Same cannot be said. Its sad, and its true.
—
Now, on topic:
I *might* buy GTA IV. That is a great price. The original $20 is ridiculous for a game from early in the consoles lifespan.
I kindof wish some other hits were included. It seems to mostly be T2/Rockstar sales. Maybe the next sale you should bring in games like Tomb Raider, I Am Alive, Resident Evil Revelations and such.
Resident Evil Revelations is a GREAT game, but due to RE6, people overlook and ignore it, which is why it would be perfect for a $5 sale, because people will finally try it and love it.
Great sale, just angry that Sony doesnt support vita.
BTW, GTA IV and Red Dead will NOT lose servers, only some small features like Leaderboards. They will be migrating from Gamespy to the same servers GTA V uses. However, sadly, some others didnt get so lucky. Midnight Club LA loses all online support, as does GTA Chinatown Wars on PSP. They didnt specify why, but its probably because those are barely played online in comparison to the other two.
It also makes me sad to say, but I read Saints Row 2 loses all online support once Gamespy shuts down too. That makes me sad. I LOVE that game, and its SUPER fun to play online. Saints Row 2 has something fun that GTA Doesnt, and its the multiplayer story missions and activities. I love that, and I will definitely miss it.
Hey, StarMcBound here.
May I ask why this Flash Deal is US only and not in Europe?
Cheers,
StarMcBound
Dang guys killing it with these sales!! Dat Guacamele!
Just wondering, from the last flash sale, there were a lot of people myself included, that posted that really WANT the PS1 classics Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon on our North American Vitas!!! Im pretty sure there are even more people than those who posted out there that want these definitive Playstation games on their Vitas! Seriously guys make it happen!
Spyro and Crash are now available on Vita, but only through the PS3. Originally it was impossible to transfer those 2 franchise PSone classics to Vita from PS3, but its possible now. They just don’t appear in store.
Thanks for the flash sale, I picked up a few titles. However I am very disappointed with your may the 4th sale, Why isn’t any of the original force unleashed dlc on sale, all those combined are more expensive than the game itself, it needs a serious sale there for the way overpriced dlc. Microsoft has two of these DLC’s which you have for $9.99 at $2.49 for their sale….
discounts sales after discounts sales after discounts sales… just awesome!
Max Payne 3
yea the online servers for some of these games are going offline but i can give a rats ass about Multi-player. im all about the single play. im sure alot of other ppl are aswell. Luv the constant sales we been getting lately. keep at it.
I just hope to see Rayman series on this list anytime soon
So many rich, lengthy titles on sale! I know I’m the minority here but I thoroughly enjoyed Kane & Lynch 2 Dog Days!
Please consider it guys & gals! =)
These sales have been really really good lately. My wallet is really not in good shape to be buying anything this time around through after the Golden Week Sale and the 99 cent sale a few weeks back. Keep the good deals coming.
Talk about feeling extremely left out this weekend having a PS4!! everything is PS3?
smh…
I would like to buy that games. But there is a problem. It says “PAGE NOT FOUND. IT’S NOT YOU.IT’S THE INTERNET’S FAULT”.
What should i do about this?
Great sale.
Love these flash sales. Picked up 5 titles to tide me over for a while. Thanks Sony!!
Is guacamelee cross buy? I’ve been waiting to see the game on sale again ever since I missed out on the last time it was on sale.
hey, I’m having problems when I try to redeem a code it says “an error has occurred”. Anyone else with the same problem?
@vSilentangel
Yes, it’s cross buy…..You’re welcome!
This is CRAZY! AWESOME GAmes for $5, please keep doing this promos. THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS
#124 ccrogers15. Just to let you know that crash and spyro can not be downloaded on vita in no way. I tried after reading your comment and it does not work in us.
Sony turned on the ability to download them and all the ps1, psp games on the vita the other week and in two days abruptly took them away again without any comment about the situation.
They crushed the hope in a lot of us that the vita and us as customers would ever mean anything to them.Myself, I will do as they are doing and not worry about supporting the vita from here on.
And support for sony in general. I will look out for my on interest for now on. Used game, and systems from gamestop.
@119-121 ccrogers 15 Why do you care about a lack of vita sales if you already sold your vita?! This makes no sense to me. The vita sales are fine for me, and I actually own a vita. I think the PS4 sales are kinda weak, but since I don’t own a PS4 it doesn’t bother me in the slightest. Try concentrating on the sales of games you actually own the console to play them on!
SONY YOU’RE AWESOME!!! Keep up the great work!!!
Constructive Criticism: PSN games shouldn’t be included in a deal where they are the same price as full retail games.
It makes no sense.
Between this and the Golden Week Sale I am Cleaning up! Keep up the Great Work!
Keep Slashing those prices like Raiden In Revengeance! Or Adol in Y’s! Too many games right now! THANKS
In the word we have the others and we have Sony.As always great work. You guys are getting better than Steam in terms of promotins+free games.
I never knew difference between PSN or PS3 game?
sigh sigh sigh… really wish ya’ll would’ve waited another week to do this. I can’t buy what I want because I’ll get charged for my Vita once it comes. :(
Unbelievevable
Gonna finally pick up Red Dead Redemption. Maybe you should have a sale on the zombie DLC they had this week. I would buy it if the price was at half.
