Awesome deal. I haven't seen it below $12 on PC yet.

Awesome deal. I haven't seen it below $12 on PC yet.

I totally missed it in yesterday's store update post, but apparently it's a price change ... as in permanent. I wonder how much longer before it becomes a Plus freebee. Even indie games for $5 are hard to come by these days.

Strange... It's still listed at $39.99 on both Steam and directly from uPlay. It's rare for console pricing to be better than PC. I bought it on Steam for $12 during their winter sale and I have seen it at that price a few times now.

$5 is a steal 4 TSOT. Seriously, if you can handle the subject matter, it's an awesome game.

2K Games is having a big 10 year anniversary sale on Steam. Some good deals, like the Bioshock Trilogy for $11.

I'm really tempted to grab Borderlands: The Pre-sequel + season pass bundle for $40.50 but I still think it will probably drop lower than that before I have time to play it.

They are kind of being weird towards PC gamers with this game though. The game plus season pass is normally priced at $90 on Steam. That seems like a rip off when you can buy the Handsome Collection on PS4/Xbox One for $60 and get The Pre-sequel + season pass and Borderlands 2 with all DLC. This $40 sale price for The Pre-sequel and season pass seems like it should be the standard price considering that this package doesn't include BL2 and all its DLC. Asking $90 for this package that has less content than the Handsome Collection is ridiculous.

I'm thinking about the Civ: Beyond Earth and Sid Meier's Starships bundle for $27 too. I want to check some reviews for both of them before making a purchase since they both got kind of a mixed reception. It seems like a decent price for the bundle though.

If you preorder with Amazon, you get Borderlands: GOTY edition for PC for free..

The Order is $39.99, $32 with GCU at Best Buy.

Probably $12-19 or so too expensive for most still IMO.

"G-- Dammit!" -- in my best Cartman voice. I should've known this $5 price was either a mistake or temporary, even though it was listed in the PS blog store update post as the new price (rather than a sale price). Taking for granted that it would always be the price from now on, I didn't jump on it yet.

EDIT: Now the PS blog listing for the price drop has been annotated: *Due to an error, South Park: The Stick of Truth was incorrectly listed on PlayStation Store at an inaccurate price. We apologize for the error.

I was able to put it in my cart at the $5 price when I posted the deal earlier this week, so if I had checked out, I would've gotten that price until they fixed it.

Yeah, I had a feeling that was an error because everyone else was still listing the normal price at $40. Even if you buy a PS3 disc copy directly from uPlay it's still $40.

Here's footage of when Zookster found out.

PSN Flash Sale! There's some insane deals here, like 90%+ off stuff. Not much for PS4 owners, but tons of PS3/Vita stuff.

Dead Nation Apocalypse Edition (PS4) is the best buy in this Flash Sale, if you didn't get it when it was free for Plus members. I'm going to grab Sam & Max: Beyond Time & Space, the one Telltale game I didn't get during the last dollar flash sale that included a lot of full-season Telltale games.

EDIT: I just noticed a poor man's version of Sunset Overdrive meet Angry Birds in this Flash Sale. It's a relatively new game called Tennis in the Face, which is cross-buy on all PS platforms. Here's the description:
Help former tennis star Pete Pagassi save the city from an evil energy drink corporation Explodz. lol

I was at my local Target and noticed they had a bunch of games on sale. I ended up grabbing Assassin's Creed Unity on PS4 for $19.99. They had the PC version but the deal appeared to be only PS4/Xbox One so that's what I got. I know the game had it's issues but I liked Black Flag and I figured I would get my $20 out of it. Looking at the box, I see that I actually got the day one limited edition for that price.

Here are some of the deals I saw.

Assassin's Creed Unity PS4/Xbox One - $19.99
Assassin's Creed Rogue PS3/360 - $19.99
Far Cry 4 PS4/Xbox One - $29.99
Destiny PS4/Xbox One - $39.99
Dragon Age Inquisition PS4/Xbox One - $39.99
inFamous Second Son $19.99
Killzone Shadow Fall $19.99
Watch Dogs PS4/Xbox One $19.99

I think I saw some deals on NBA 2K15 and EA Sports games but I can't remember the pricing on those. I almost grabbed inFamous Second Son for $20 too. I've been itching to play that again and it's a decent price. The game is a year old at this point though so I'm sure I'll be able to get it for less than $20 soon if not free from PS Plus.

AC Unity is $19.99 on Amazon right now and will be at that price at Best Buy in next week's ad I heard.

Thanks for the tip. I would prefer to play it on my beefy new GPU instead of my PS4 so I think I'll take the copy I just bought back to Target and buy the PC version from Amazon. Luckily I haven't opened the wrapping yet.

True but don't forget, as of last I heard the performance is still nerfed regardless of your system. Hell Look at how it is for TotalBiscuit, and he has a Titan Dual SLI configuration..
