SG PSN Store

 

[Dovahkiinskyrim]

SG/Asia psn no 'pattern' one. In the past it was like one small sale every few months, that's all. They have been doing more sales, so it's increasing in frequency, but have not established any pattern. Of cos the common CNY/Xmas are good timing for sales, so can expect to have those, plus a few ad-hoc ones (not done every year) like black friday, halloween, easter, tokyo game show (but no E3 though). This buy S$99 get S$10 is new. The buy 12 months PS+ (at same price or more) and get a game also just started in the last 6 months or so. The only thing constant is a deal of the month, which is just 1 game, not a big saving. Even when they run a sale, often the deals are not that good. Some of the sales they actually copy from other regions (especially Europe) but Asia has much smaller selection. Some sales are driven by the publishers (like EA, Ubisoft) so you can expect to see the same across regions (also some global Sony campaigns like "Days of Play"). So overall Asia is increasing in frequency (and sometimes quantity) of sales but not always quality.

I'd guess maybe like once in 3 to 6 months we see an actual good sale from Asia (sizable selection, good discounts, perhaps certain high profile titles even cheaper than US). Bargain hunters are better off stalking US psn store (weekly sale(s), monthly flash sale) or EU psn store. Game prices are not good in EU though, just a general trend in how they market games there, but good selection. The monthly/twice-monthly EU "digital" sales often have good prices, if you want digital-only titles or indies.

Fallout 4 is only us$22.49 (~S$31.xx, even less if you are US ps+ member) on US psn at the moment. The season pass is not on sale but can wait lah, play the base game first.

Buy from Amazon US or PCGameSuply (see post #2), no mark up, you pay exact amount (sometimes pc game supply has 30% discount on us$10 card even). They are instant delivery electronically, no need to wait for shipping.

No need to wait for amazon email sending, you can access the code in your amazon account screen immediately after completing the checkout. Same for pcgamesupply.

I see. Thanks. Not sure worth it to change to usa as my main account invest so much games and trophies on my Asia psn.

Most of the time I play AAA games. So DLC and stuff usually release "on time"

Don't care about indie, free to play, demo and classic.

No need to change. Use a US account to buy from US psn store, use SG account to buy from SG psn store. Then regardless which account bought the game, use back the same SG account to play (unless it's a very rare case where the game is region-locked or account-locked), keeping trophies in one place.

The US Mid Year Sale is ending soon.

I actually bought Shadow of Mordor @ USD 5.99 this morning after checking some videos. Really a very good deal for the high quality. Thanks Pierce for bringing attention to this game.

I was also interested in some other games but didn't want to make the mistake of having an ever growing backlog. So just choose one enough already lah.

Hooted Cosmic star heroine and Amnesia: Collection

Hooted Cosmic star heroine and Amnesia: Collection

When I saw Amnesia Collection, I thot it's Amnesia + Soma, unfortunately not

So many I want to get but yet so many of these indies have chance of going ps+. Anyway this is round 1, still more rounds in the weeks to come, so I will take a few more days before pulling any trigger. There should be a flash sale this weekend too.

The Asia PS+ sale has some good deals too (the 10% code can apply to the discounted price).
