[Punished Miku]

Don't sleep on that Madame Web discount. It won't be on Netflix forever.

 

[Ronin_7]

Hardware sales seem to be until December 12th but they don't say Ps5 price

 

[phant0m]

30% of PS+? Better not be "new customers only" or some shit

 

[Camreezie]

This gonna be the first steep discount on Star Wars Outlaws?

 

[DAHGAMING]

Don't sleep on that Madame Web discount. It won't be on Netflix forever.

Funny, it caught my eye aswell, maybe they give us credit to spend in the store for watching it.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Yup...i knew it was the best idea for me to let my PS Plus subscription die last month. Now i'll resubscribe with that 30% discount

 

[The ninja farmer]

30% of PS+? Better not be "new customers only" or some shit

Yeah. Mine up for renewal in about 6 months. Happy to pay, but not at full price. Or when they have better deals for non members

 

[Skifi28]

Really hoping for a Stellar Blade discount.

 

[adamsapple]

30% of PS+? Better not be "new customers only" or some shit

They didn't do one last year either, which led me to not renewing.

Let's see if they buck the trend this year.

It reads that way to me it would be nice if they found a way to reward loyalty

 

[Kupfer]

Are there any real offers at all? I have the feeling that everyone raises their prices first and then sells the product to the customer at the previous normal price with a supposedly discounted offer.

PS plus is. Even has a discount on upgrades which I don't remember seeing or just never noticed.

 

[lh032]

if essential renewal discount applies to existing user, ill buy another 2 years.

I got a 25% offer on PSN for renewing premium a couple of days ago because it was expiring. No sale or anything , seemed like a personal offer. I don't think I've ever seen this before.

Interesting. Mine was expiring and I got nothing, so yeah maybe targeted. I had to re-up at full price, but obviously bought PSN vouchers to get a ~20% discount

 

[Kupfer]

PS Plus became 20% to 26% more expensive last year. The current offer is therefore only 4% - 10% cheaper compared to 2023.
Ok there is no alternative and there are basic features that people value like cloud saves and multiplayer hidden behind a paywall, so people will bite the bullet, but I wouldn't call it a great deal.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

It looks like there won't be a renewal deal of active PS+ subscribers, but you'll be able to upgrade your essential tier to extra or premium at a discount for the remainder of your sub.

Going to wait until my PS+ Extra expires in April and then see if I get a renewal discount because last year I had to wait like 2-3 weeks till they offered me a deal (I think it was 25% or something).

You asked for a real deal. It's the cheapest ps plus is or will be

 

[Spukc]

Glad i didnt pay full fucking price for that shitty psn plus scam.. i guess i can play online again this friday

 

[Bernoulli]

30% of PS+? Better not be "new customers only" or some shit

Isn't it only if you are not currently subscribed?

 

[RedC]

Have my list ready for good game sales.

 

[Spukc]

Yup i did the same shit last year.
Let it lapse

I wonder if the upgrade is with Portal users in mind

Isn't it only if you are not currently subscribed?

Looks like there's both. New and an upgrade path but the upgrade is tiered discount

[Kenneth Haight]

Might bite on Spidey 2 if it’s discounted nicely.

Baldurs Gate 3 and System shock remake I have my eye out for also.

 

[Guardian Monkey]

my ps+ expires the 4th of December. Oh well.

 

[FrankWza]

You can save 25% for 2 weeks

 

[King Dazzar]

Man I'm going to have to fight the temptation of SW Outlaws. I know it'll play like shit. I know it'll look like shit. But, what if... lol

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Hoping for a Rise of the Ronin sale.

 

[Skifi28]

You're stronger than this.

 

[Johnny Concrete]

Can't wait for that whopping 15% discount on God Of War Ragnarok...

 

[nightmare-slain]

Stellar Blade still no discount. They are milking it for all it's worth until it comes to PC.

 

[nightmare-slain]

Baldurs Gate 3

i always get a chuckle when people say they are waiting for a sale on this.

game would be worth it even if it was double the price.

and it's selling even better these days so Larian definitely ain't in any rush to give a huge discount. You'll get $10 off if you're lucky.

 

[King Dazzar]

How do we know? The sale isnt live yet? Is there an advance list somewhere?

 

[King Dazzar]

You're stronger than this.

 

[Fbh]

Have Baldur's Gate 3, Rebirth, Stellar Blade and Cyberpunk Complete edition on my list.
Hopefully there's a decent discount on at least 1 of them.

Are there any real offers at all? I have the feeling that everyone raises their prices first and then sells the product to the customer at the previous normal price with a supposedly discounted offer.

There are definitely some real deals.
But the best thing you can do during big sale events like these, be it for games or other stuff, is to use some price tracking site (like Psdeals for PSN) to see if it's actually a historically low price for the product or not.

I am glad I made you laugh.

I am a very patient person, I agree we should reward top quality games with our hard earned money and it sounds like Bladurs Gate 3 is that.

It's not my usual type of game though and I am not sure if I will like it.

I buy plenty of games Day one, but I am finding myself getting more patient as I get older and have less time. I am not one of these people that has FOMO or anything like that, so I am quite happy to wait for certain games and it always pays off well.

 

[Toots]

Give us disc drives or gives us death

 

[solidus12]

So I have 4 months left in my premium sus subscription. No discount for me?

What if I convert my 4 months into Extra, will I be able to get 30% off?

 

[Klosshufvud]

Putting all the scam wares on sale.

Yup...i knew it was the best idea for me to let my PS Plus subscription die last month. Now i'll resubscribe with that 30% discount

Two months without online play to save a few bucks...frankly doesn't sound like the best idea you had.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Joke’s on you. I don’t play online except F2P stuff like Genshin so i can play all of those.

 

[Polygonal_Sprite]

This gonna be the first steep discount on Star Wars Outlaws?

How much is it in the UK still showing as £70 on the website.

 

[adamsapple]

No, lol.

If it's like last year, there will only be discounts if you're getting a new sub or if you're upgrading from lower to higher. I don't think going from higher to lower will do anything (or that it's possible ?)

 

[Klosshufvud]

Joke’s on you. I don’t play online except F2P stuff like Genshin so i can play all of those.

Fair enough. That doesn't sound so bad then.

 

[Elios83]

Have they officially announced the hardware bundles prices?

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Fair enough. That doesn't sound so bad then.

I get what you mean though. I saved like 30 bucks from this and then i'm out here looking for a 120€ disc drive for my 800€ PS5 Pro that barely updates my base PS5 games for now so my saving choices could be better measured, lmao.

 

[Camreezie]

How much is it in the UK still showing as £70 on the website.

Sale isnt until 22nd, but I dont remember it being on sale yet

 

[cyberheater]

I recently bought a PS5 so got PS+ for a year. I hope I can buy an additional year at a discount.

 

[solidus12]

No, lol.

If it's like last year, there will only be discounts if you're getting a new sub or if you're upgrading from lower to higher. I don't think going from higher to lower will do anything (or that it's possible ?)

You can downgrade but only after your current subscription ends. Lmao.

They were offering a 25% for existing premium members until 2025. Well seems like they removed it.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Sony’s sales and discounts, from hardware, to software of mediocre first party games, and sub subscription services are the return of early PS3 era arrogant Sony. In other words, these deals blow chunks.
