US PSN Flash Sale - lots of goodies for 90 cents each

Breath of Fire 4, Megaman X4, Tokyo Jungle, Pacman Championship Edition, Wild Arms and others included in the sale. Offer ends on monday. Give it a look.

Luckily I have some leftover money in my account and can afford 3 games from this sale. Still deciding what to get.

Thanks for the heads up about this slick PSN flash sale -- haven't seen such "pennies on the dollar" type of sale on PSN in a long time. Will certainly get that cool PS3 Ferrari racing game -- can't pass that one up for a mere 90 cents is a cheap-ass deal, indeed.

On a side-note, the PS3 version of Pac-Man Royal Battle isn't full-screen (like it's commercial HDTV arcade game cab setup counterpart is) + there's no option to adjust the game screen to full-size anyways. I've noticed at the local John's Incredible Pizza hangout in Modesto, CA, the PMRB cab is presented in full-screen HDTV glory for all to see/play. Grrrr...gotta blame developer/publisher NamcoBandai for that particular PS3 PMRB screen issue.

Vita owners who don't have it already should definitely pick up Gravity Rush (it's a dollar, like everything in this sale).

Yeah I spend my leftover 7.50$ in my wallet, but there's really nothing essential in that sale that warrants bothering with adding money to your wallet.

Are those Sam & Max episodes any good ?
Also, beside Gravity Rush, which titles would you recommend ?

The ones that caught my attention:

- Breath of Fire 4 & Wild Arms are regarded as good JRPGs
- Dino Crisis is similar to oldschool Resident Evil
- Dead Nation is a top down zombie shooter - also allows coop
- Megaman X4 & X5 are great (X4 is regarded as the best of the two)
- Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection comes with MK1, 2 and 3
- Twisted Metal Black is an awesome vehicle combat game
- Pac-Man DX is the original game on steroids
- Galaga DX is a way different game from the original, no longer being a fixed shooter and focusing more on speedkills
- Fighting Force is a 3D Streets of Rage

I bought Extreme Pinball as it's a childhood favorite of mine, but turns out it's an awful port of the DOS version. Avoid it.

Edit: Just finished playing Ferrari the Race Experience and it's a pretty good game with a lot of content. If you like racing games, pick this one.

Thanks for the lineup, I did not know most of the title and this will help me make my choices.

Ibb and Obb is freaking amazing! My friend had it on PS+, but since it ran out, we haven't been able to play. It's seriously the best two-player platformer I've ever played. (And it's freaking hard!)

Thanks for the post! :mrgreen:

How does BOF4 stack up against 3? I enjoyed 3 but I'd probably want to know 4 was on the same level before committing time to it.

Both Pac Man DX and Galaga Legions DX are fantastic, absolutely the way to update an archaic arcade classic.

Both games are relatively easy, especially Galaga, but they look fantastic, and are decently intense. Pac Man DX especially gets awesome if you play it right. Totally worth the less than 2 bucks paid.

I picked up 5 or 6 titles. Aside from the obvious ones, I got TAC Heroes, as it looked to be some sort of strategy game. Anyone know the game first hand?
