  • Nice! Looking forward to checking out Malicious.

    Quick question, though. May be obvious, since it isn’t listed under “Last Chance” but, are the Borderlands sales continuing? I still need to pick up the DLC, but, don’t have the extra $$$ for a couple more days.

    • Glad you’re excited for Malicious!

      On the Borderlands sale, yeah those will be ending this week, as in tomorrow, Tuesday, 4/16 when the PS Store updates, so grab them while you can

    • To All: Due to the maintenance today, many of you can’t log in to leave a comment. Bookmark this page though and don’t forget to come back and leave your feedback when the maintenance period is over.

  • Awesome, will definitely be trying out Malicious.

  • Malicious actually looks interesting. When can we get a full fledged GTA title for the vita?

  • I’m still stuck on Demon’s Souls. I may be late on these. : /

    Question: It was mentioned that the last week in the Spring Fever Sales was a PSASBR Heritage sale features games from the heroes in the game. Will that include HD collections from them too?

    • We’ll have more news on those discounts when that week rolls around, so stay tuned to the PS Blog for details when they’re set to announce.

  • Great deals on GTA for people who like the series.

    I’m dying to see what The 30th All Stars sales brings us. As someone who has only played Golden Abyss in the Uncharted series I am hoping for some deep discounts on a 3 pack, also hoping for some MGS sales (revengance). I own all RE games save for Code Veronica so really between the sales for PSABR and Zombie Tycoon, the 30th can’t come soon enough.

  • Thanks for the update. Thanks for the GTA discounts, but since I have them all on disc already, I won’t be getting the digital versions unless they’re free.

    Here are some games I’d love to see in the IGC:

    God of War (any/all games in the series; digital versions of GOW3 & Ascension)
    Grand Theft Auto (any/all games in the series)
    Metal Gear Solid (any/all games in the series; digital version of MGS4)
    Red Dead Redemption
    Saints Row 3
    Uncharted (any/all games in the series)

  • Actually like the discounts for the GTA IV Ultimate Edition. Used to have it till I gave the regular game to my son, then he sold it. =) Now I can download it and I’m sure he’ll play it again. He loves it.

  • …still waiting for new Vtia games on PS+. Not PSN games, not PSP games, but PS VITA games

  • Too busy with Guacamelle!

    Finished the “Tree Tops” area and was quite proud of myself…currently on the disappearing platforms part. Old-schoolers will have their skills put to the test.

    Dragon Fantasy Book 1 is awfully tempting though….

    • oh man, yeah Guacamelee definitely tests the best gamer reflexes at some parts but they struck a great balance with it being challenging, but not frustrating.

  • Where is ninja gaiden sigma 2 plus?why it was removed from store?

  • GTA IV for $10?! That’s what I’m talkin’ about!

  • Btw horrible update as usual.

  • Unless there is an unannounced sale for Spring Fever, nothing but Dragon book for me this week. I don’t like GTA, I would like to have seen you put random stuff on sale rather than a whole franchise.

  • Got it! 5/6 orbs.

  • I’ll check out malicious for sure. Hoping to see more vita sales too, especially for DJ Max Technicka Tune. Please!

  • Malicious looks like Ragnarok Oddessy on the Vita, which is good and bad.
    Nothing for me this week, but thanks anyways.

  • Great update, im diggin’ the various GTA discounts!!! :D ill probably get Vice City Stories for my Vita once im home.

    Keep um coming Sony!

    P.S.–Commenting via my Vita ;)

  • I’ve been wanting to try out Malicious. Of course, now is the perfect opportunity. Also, I’m definitely jumping on Dragon Fantasy. However, I don’t think I’m going to pick up anything on the Grand Theft Auto sale, although I believe it is a great sale. I already have GTA III, IV Complete, and San Andreas (I’m also inevitably going to pick up V when it comes out). Those will keep me busy for a long time to come. I’m sure there will be plenty more in the Spring Fever Sale to spend my money on come next week and the week after.

    • Always good to budget your purchases =) Dragon Fantasy looks like a lot of fun and definitely something new. Nothing wrong with passing on the GTA stuff, and you can definitely look forward to more discounts as Spring Fever rolls along. There’s still Thomas Was Alone, and then Zombie Tycoon II (and Zombie Tycoon II will be coming free for Plus members on Day 1, so even better!)

  • El Savior!

  • Only the Dragon Fantasy discount for me this week. Already have Malicious (and didn’t much care for it)(it’s basically Demon’s Souls, except only boss fights), and absolutely no interest in RockStar games. But hey, Dragon Fantasy!

  • I’m rather disappointed, not because I own Malicious already, but because Malicious is an extremely weak title. Not only is it not fun to play, but the gameplay gets stale about ten minutes in. It looks nice though.

  • does anyone get the feeling don’t buy dragon fantasy yet, we’ll have on the IGC next month or is it just me?

  • @22 I have the same feeling for Thomas was alone

  • OT

    Oh my god I’m glad I left boston right after the sox game was over. So damn scary.

  • Hello Morgan Haro will shin megami tensei devil saga come to the US psn store?

  • i wonder Dragon Fantasy have cross buy feature, then does it have double trophy list or just share 1 trophy list?

  • I don’t own the content, but nothing for me this week.

  • Could we get some racing games in the IGC? Hard to complain about free games though, I think most people are forgetting they’re FREE!

  • @ShariusTC :

    Cross-buy – Yes.

    Shared trophy list – Yes.

  • i was abl to log in on the website so any idea when the store will be up and running

    @28 that is true it would be nice to see a good racing game not saying wipe out or wat ever its called is bad its jusf not my style of racing and im not complaining bc the games are free and i do truly appreciate that

  • @28.
    Did you forget you are paying for this service?

  • there needs to be a port for outland on ps vita

  • Malicious & Dragon Fantasy Book I for me this week. Hate Rockstar games so this sale is useless to me. But at least I got Borderlands 2 for free, do to the $10 back for every $50 dollars spend promo.

  • 4/15/13 and still no $10 credit from buying PS+ for 49.99 last month :( I hope it’s there once the maintenance is done. But they said around 4/12/13. It’s getting to the point of “not” around 4/12/13. Just sayin’…..

  • Btw, Malicious looks cool. Will give it a try perhaps.

  • Nice on the GTA sale. I already have all of these in one form or other, but I’m buying EfLC again, because the PC port runs so slow for me, and my system runs most games fine. May pick up Dragon Fantasy, too, depending on what else is on sale this week.

    @31, if you notice, #28 isn’t a + account, so I don’t know why they’re even here. Troll, perhaps?

  • As usual, no love for the VITA, no discounts, no games whatsoever.

    • Dragon Fantasy launch week discount, along with a handful of the GTA games on sale, are playable on PS Vita

  • @24, dodgedoors, wow, close shave. I’m watching some of the news coverage. One sad, senseless, wasteful tragedy after another.

  • @35 My $20 discount arrived over the past weekend (Sat to be precise). Hope they didn’t screw you over a penny ;)

    Still need to pick up Zombie HD from last week. Otherwise nothing for me this week.

    Loving Guacamelee, finished my normal play through. Just a hard speed run left to go for the platinum.

    Without doubt a great game, but as an old school gamer who cut his teeth on the classic platformers of the past, there are some positively evil sections. Those disappearing platforms almost killed me (and caused an untimely demise for a Vita….). Perhaps time has dulled my skills.

  • @37, did you not see that Dragon Fantasy is for Vita as well as PS3…

    As well as discounts for GTA Liberty City Stories & Vice City Stories for your Vita.

  • what is with these dorky nerdy free games coming out on ps plus?….

  • @37. Dragon Fantasy and several GTA games have Vita support.

  • Nice deals even though I got GTA , GTA 2, GTA III, GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, GTA IV, and GTA IV: Episodes from LIbert City on Steam for $12. Probably will pick up LCS or VCS for my Vita though.

  • @38: Hi Lisa :)

    @37:

    Guacamelee last week? With a discount.

  • man, all these free ps+ games are either games i already bought a long time ago, or games i just dont want…same with discounts. Will Siren Blood Curse ever get a discount? Europe has the game cheap, while its stil $45 for all episodes AND its the censored version.

  • Suggestion: Please put Monster Hunter Portable 3rd in the store.

  • @ dodgedoors oh wow, consider yourself lucky…….it’s a shame what the world is coming to these days : \

  • Well let´s try Malicious!!

  • @44, Hi, Zage. I’m feeling depressed watching the news so I’m going to stop. Go kill beasties in Skyrim, that always makes me feel better.

    I look forward to all the needed laughs I always get Tuesdays, reading all the gamer fights in every post.

  • Although there is nothing interesting on sale this week malicious looks.good
    But on a side note @morgan tomorrow is my birthday does the playstaion network
    Give anything to people for there birthdays?

    • You get a nice big Happy Birthday from me; but no there aren’t any formal PSN gifts around your birthday =)
