TOTP: Buy Monster Monpiece for $9 (flash sale in North America).
Maybe this was too short notice and they plan on doing it next week.

I definitely want Monster Monpiece for that price. Hopefully I can scrape together something by the 16th.

Direct flash sale link
Maybe $10 Knack will save us the Knack PS+ begging
I recommend:
Neptunia Rebirth 1
Monster Monpiece
GG Xrd
Mercenary Kings (it's a bit weird, I enjoy it but it's a bit slow paced)
Hard Corps Uprising (basically Contra)
LBP3 (after the bug fixes, it's one of the best LBPs--great level building tools, new chars are fun)
Sportsfriends and Towerfall Ascension are great, but only for local multi (towerfall has single player but it's only okay). Sportsfriends does NOT require Moves
Can't decide between Geometry Wars 3 or Super Stardust Ultra

It won't

I bet Knack will go free on PS+ next month.
SSU is a remaster of the PS3 game, don't buy it if you already have it.

I could play some of you in Monpiece if you want. PSN in profile. Please say who you are, I have enough trouble recognizing forum names as it is
Doesn't it have a ton of new levels, bosses, modes? They made it sound like it had at least as much new content as the original game did. But I do have SS HD and Delta

Same dilemma.
Still very much worth $10 to me to have an improved version on my PS4 which I'll actually play, verses an older version on my PS3 I no longer turn on. Just not sure if I can squeeze it in around all the other sales.
I haven't played it, but from what I understand it does have several new modes, but not really 'new levels' - more, 'remastered levels' that are the same worlds with reworked patterns/bosses.
$10 is a fair price for that, though, all things considered.
There's one really cool looking mode where you leave some some sort of rock trail behind you (think Snake) that looks dope.

I just got a PS4, played a bit of GG before and think Xrd's graphics are amazing.
I should buy it right? Does it have decent single player content?

It has a fuckton of single player content, including an Arcade mode with elaborate cutscenes, the RPG-stats-esque MOM mode, challenges, an in-game lore guide, and an awesome multiple hour
non-interactive

Yeah that's all I needed to hear. Thanks.
Didn't even setup my US account on the PS4 yet because I didn't think I'd use it at all for now.If I had to suggest only one game from the entire flash sale, it'd be Monster Monpiece. The card system is impressively deep and if there is any time where the online is more active than at launch, it's now with this sale.

Unpopular opinion, but it'd be worth that price, IMO. That said, it doesn't change the fact that there are simply better games available for the Vita now, like Toukiden (Kiwami) and Freedom Wars.

Okay, I got Freedom Wars for cheap recently and Kiwami isn't out yet. So I'm safe I guess.

Meh. Yes and no, depends how badly you want to play a mediocre hunting game.

Actually, if you put it that way...
Monster Monpiece, Neptunia and ToX2 might be enough.
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
Nah, it's really mediocre, and not really properly balanced for singleplayer either (may not be an issue for you, but it was for me).
No it was $35 when I got it.
Y'all probably already got it already, but if not listen to this man.
No.

Geo wars 3 is pretty hype

Agreed. I would go for GW3 over Super Stardust. It is more Stardust. GW3 has more content. Tho Stardust is amazing on my 3D TV I just got. Get both if you got the cash.
I want to... but if they release all those Super XX R Plus versions
They will. It'll take time, but will happen. But 24 bucks is just too good, and a revision will hardly come out on consoles before fall.
The story is mediocre up until a point, then it becomes insufferable.
Just made the list of games I'm downloading for my Playstation TV + 32GB memory card:
I don't think it'll fit all of them, but I'll start from largest so that the small ones like Fez and Hotline Miami will end up staying on my Vita.

I can't really sit through these whole youtube videos to find out... how much can you enjoy Monster Monpiece without buying any cards?
I might get Mercenary Kings since I never bothered to play it on Steam, missed it while it was free on PS+, and maybe the Vita version is still coming with retroactive crossbuy potential? Maybe I shouldn't bank on that.

you absolutely don't need to buy cards in Monpiece, at all

I think I bought one pack near the end just to see what it was about - you don't need to buy cards, you can get any card in the game through playing.
Ok guys, I'm broke and can only make some of these games hopefully calling in birthday tabs promised to me.
Guilty Gear and Neptunia are the must have games on that list. Monster Monpiece was just added because of you guys, but I'll probably end up tossing it due to online trophies. Not sure how active the game is at this point.

Only thing I'd drop is Knack, I'm sure you can find another MonMon buyer who needs the online trophies.

It's the most generic, pointless JRPG ever, then it gets to be (spoilers...I guess)
a super boring "rawr I'm god but evil so I kill u mortals" then mortals are like "no way more like I kill u"
...wat? Are you confusing rubbing with buying? Are you confusing buying cards with IAPs? You can buy hundreds of cards easily with the ingame money gained through story mode and not rub, though rubbing gives you a better variety of cards to use in battle. If you're completely insane and want to randomly limit yourself, yes I think you can probably not buy cards with free ingame currency and just use dropped cards but I don't know why you would do that.
You can fight yourself over Ad Hoc for "online" trophies or just play vs a gaffer, honestly the "have a billion friggin unique cards" and "rub until your arm falls off" trophies are probably more egregious. I would suggest not worrying too much about trophies, but I can play some online matches for fun or possibly trophies (not sure how many are required, I'd be happy to play some normal matches but not cheese through 500 in a row if that's required)
Thanks for the replies. I'll ask around about Monster Monpiece. I wonder if my trophy hunting friend is getting it.
What's your thoughts on LBP3? I take it you've played it.

From what I understand, there are still parts where you rub the girls to power them up or something but the more...provocative artwork has been taken out.

I think I'll get Xillia 2. My wallet can not take any more of these deals.
Thanks for clarifying.
I did some more research into the game and yeah, it's a bit over the top for my tastes.
Legends + GGVita it is.

Man, everyone's hype on Monster Monpiece. I guess I would have been too (ccg starved) if I didn't already plat it.
Then again, I'm happily buying Ragnarok Odyssey Ace so what do I know. I had a blast with the original demo.
Like moths to a flame.
You don't need to spend any real money to buy cards, period.
