Under Defeat is definitely worth it for that price, love that game
It's an incredible deal. Does anyone know how much the upgrade is?
Some good deals, i'll be sure to grab a few things from this sale. Couple of things that strike me as odd being discounted though.
I know Delta came out not too long ago but you'd that they'd discount that instead of vanilla Soul Sacrifice.
Does getting the game digitally not include it? Suprised they're discounting this by itself.
Both of the games are on PSN, seems odd for us not to have that bundle when Aus/NZ have the Persona 2/3 one.
The PS1 versions are famous for their long load times and on top of that these are 50hz slowing the games down even further. If you can put up with them then you'll still get the same game but you'd probably be best opting for another version if possible.
Didn't Klonoa run in 50hz despite Bandai Namco saying it was the US version? Did they ever fix that so that it's 60hz?

They are on PSN, but IIRC they are quite expensive as far as PS1 classics go, so a discount would be nice.

Some seriously good deals in there.
Well, for comparison, the game sells for about $30US in Japan still and it was released in 2006, not 2011. That's staying power.

You can, I bought FF9 on the US PSN yesterday. It's a pain in the ass but if you have separate memory cards for each account it's just a matter of wasting a couple of minutes formatting the Vita when you switch.
There's no excuse for Europeans having to put up with the 50hz bullshit, no way that shit is getting my money.
Dealing with the Vita's account system sucks but I'll take that over enduring the games in slow motion any day of the week.

This looks like a pretty good sale. Does anyone know if PSN NA is supposed to have a similar sale or anything? I looked but I couldn't find any information.
I have a new copy of Trails unopened but I would like to just buy the digital and play it on the Vita.

Then what you are telling me is I shouldn't buy this blu-ray of a film I once saw on VHS (and don't know it is any different) and shouldn't mind VHS quality?
Just sayin
You can deal with a 50 hour game taking 60 hours? I'd love to have the free time you have.

FF7 for me, I go on vacation in a few weeks and was planning on picking it up for the trip anyways. Half off makes it all the sweeter.

Resident Evil Mega Bundle is a fanastic deal - just don't have the time to play any of them, so will be wasted.
Nice to see the EU is getting some decent bundles - Ni No Kuni is a must imo.

Hmm, most of it been on sale so many times, and a lot of games still expensive.
At least 3rd Birthday is back to £8, went to buy that about 18 months ago to see they had upped the price from £8 (like other PSP Essentials) to £16. Almost makes me not want to buy it with such greedy piss taking.

Great sale, I suppose I have to upgrade to a 64GB Vita card sooner than later though.
Getting P3P, Trails and maybe FF1-3 and FFX/X-2 (Already own the PS3 version but it would be nice to have on the Vita).
Damn you 50Hz PS1 games and damn you Sony and publishers who enforce it.

I don't know about PS3 as I only have a Vita, but it runs correctly there.

Always love when there's a EU PS1 sales and people are going nuts over 50hz and saying to buy the US versions instead.
1: Is the US version on sale?
2: How do I magic the US PS1 game on to my Euro Vita?
lol

Final Fantasy sale again you say?
Time to grab X/X-2 for Vita.

That's a fair amount of hyperbole. Just sayin'.
Oh really? That's great, I was interested in getting it to play on Vita anyway. I'll have to grab it sometime.

Odd that Persona 3: FES is not included in the sale.
since when is P3:FES available in the EU

Wasn't P3:FES for PS2 only?

Are you serious? They might not be on sale right now but they have been and will be again, besides, buying on the US store is a lot cheaper because they don't convert currency.
Playing them on a EU Vita doesn't require magic, just formatting.
Some people just like getting screwed I guess.
Do whatever the hell you want but don't criticize people for providing good and helpful advice for fuck's sake.
Don't play daft, you get what he's saying.
A playthrough of a game that takes you 10 hours on the US version will take 12 on the EURO version, 50 will turn into 60.
It's a waste of our time and directly affects gameplay.
Why are some people defending this?
It's like the people calling this out are the bad guys here.
Sometimes people here nitpick the craziest things but playing games almost 20% below their normal speed is a non-issue?
So true.
I am not going to buy another memory card and have to reformat my system (Which means losing all my home screen customisations and icon placements every time) every time I want to play a PS1 classic, it's just not convenient for a large amount of people.
In hindsight I do wish I had signed up for a US PSN in the first place, but I didn't do my research and I have far too many digital titles on my Australian account to switch over now, so I'll make the best of what I've got.

Close to max cart size each, so about 6.6GB for both.

Unfortunately not, only cross save.
Nope.
Thats too bad, getting the vita version only then.
I always buy stuff without owning the console. It's kind of stupid but I just can't help myself.
