WWE 2K14 for Rs 624; Crysis 3 for Rs 279; Hitman: Absolution for Rs 424 – these are prices that would surprise most even in a Steam sale, so to see these prices on PSN is pretty shocking. But PSN’s January sale is littered with such crazy deals on both older and new releases across PS3, PS Vita and PSP.
Ignore the ‘up to 50%’ part. They’e just being modest.
Running from 24th December through most of January 2014, the sale features over 150 games. Aside from those mentioned above, some of the deals that stood out for us were – Battlefield 4, Need for Speed Rivals and FIFA 14 at Rs 1,399 each, Ridge Racer Unbounded for Rs 199, Mass Effect 3 for Rs 479, Dishonored GOTY Edition for Rs 949, PES 2014 for Rs 949, Ni no Kuni for Rs 626, Sports Champions Complete (which includes both games) for Rs 399.
The deals aren’t quite as impressive on the Vita front, although there are still a few gems, like Need for Speed Most Wanted at Rs 379, and Virtua Tennis 4 at Rs 303.
There are no PS4 games on sale, but with many of the games in the sale part of the PS3-PS4 upgrade program, you can buy the PS3 version and upgrade to the PS4 version by paying a lot less than you would if you bought the PS4 version directly.
Here’s the full list of games on sale along with the dates on which they go off sale, along with Indian prices courtesy MCV India:
