I already have Costume Quest (Great friggin game) and the others don't look that great.

Anyone else played and loved these other titles?

Shatter is a nice little breakout-esque game, but that's all I can really see that I'd think is worth it.

Being the absolute cheapass I am (and with good reason now as my wallet is parched for cash at the moment), I generally get games that are 75% off or so which is why STEAM is so awesome for me. I may consider Costume Quest or Space Invaders, though I doubt it.

Glad it's not in Europe. My PS3's broken and needs to be sent away to get fixed.

Shatters a good one. Although I got it on steam for even cheaper.

I played the demo for the first Deathspank, and it was horrible. Forced, painful humor and terrible combat, and considering the sorry state of Hack-and-slash ARPGs on the PS3, I'd be willing to accept almost anything, it was just too bad. Awesome theme song though.

Thongs of Virtue has a demo as well though, so you could check that out. Maybe it's better.

Even though it just came out, I kinda hope they put ME2 on sale. $60 is expensive for a full game on the PSN (Prototype is $30), and I can't imagine going to the store and buying 3 Psn cards just to get it.

I was going to say that myself, though frankly with that game's soundtrack, 20$ would be a steal.

 

[Treblaine]

Wow, of all the games I am interested in on PSN I don't care about any of those.

By the way "massive" sales of only 11 games? At a mere 50% off? Steam 3 to four times per year has sales with HUNDREDS of games with 66% to 75% off!

 

[Snotnarok]

This sale couldn't be considered Massive if the PS3 only had 50 games. Why not like Stardust HD, or Zombie Nation? They're missing out on great games to put on sale here.

Figures this sale comes the moment I spend the last of my money. Knowing my luck it will end buy the time I get more to. I feel sad now.

 

[Smoochy]

Swords and SOLIDERS sounds awesome, but I think I'd prefer a game with soldiers instead

 

[gigastar]

How is this sale massive with only 11 games going reduced? and only by 50%?

Seems to me that SCEA either just wants to shift some stagnant download keys, or is experimenting with replicating Steams success.

I might get Costume Quest, but I did just spend $45 on various arcade/indie titles on XBLA today.... Hm.....

deathspank is a funny Hack N Slash apart from that there's not much to be seen...

 

[fire-exit-man]

Any word on this coming to the PAL PSN Store? I've been thinking of downloading DeathSpank...

 

[BehattedWanderer]

Tomorrow I get Costume Quest. It looks to be a good day.

 

[Fearzone]

Sweet I think I'm going to pick up several of these. Thx for the heads up.

 

[icyneesan]

I was hoping for something like Infamous or Burnout Paradise to be on sale.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

11 games is massive? Damn, guess I never noticed how much Steam sales really put other sales to shame...

The sale, "11 for 2011" features - appropriately - 11 games on sale for an unspecified amount of "limited time."

Until January 31. Says right there in the picture.
