In truth, the first round of the European PlayStation Store’s highly publicised Summer Sale is somewhat disappointing. Yes, there are a few deals worthy of note, but the whole promotion is bloated with games that have been discounted dozens of times before. Don’t lose hope just yet, though, as a bunch of PlayStation 4 titles are set to get their price tags slashed next week.
According to Sony employee Jawad Ashraf on the PlayStation Blog, over 25 next-gen titles will be reduced on Wednesday. At the moment you can pick up the likes of Battlefield 4 and Need for Speed: Rivals at just over half price, but we’re hoping for some meatier reductions next time. Writing in the comments, the abovementioned spokesperson hinted that The LEGO Movie Videogame and Outlast may be two of those titles discounted.

Really hoping that there will be discounts on Trials Fusion, Transistor, Entwined and a couple of others. I just don't want Sony to give like 10 or 20% discounts on these games, it wouldn't be worth it buying them then IMO.
i actually really want The LEGO Movie Videogame. I've no idea why, but would pay a discounted price for that. £17.99?
I think Entwined could do with being reduced as I paid it's full price and I really don't think it's worth it...and I'm a huge indie game fan. What there is to the game is fine but get into the right rhythm and the game can be over in a flash. It would be nice to have some real meaty reductions on desirable next gen titles.

Sounds like a reasonable price to me. I've actually started to take a liking for the Lego games now after playing through Batman 2 on the Vita from PS+ and trying out the demos for the games on PS4. But it seems Movie Videogame isn't as open-world as Marvel Superheroes, which is a shame. :/
I'd like the Watch Dogs season pass on PS4 discounted please Sony. Not sure why the PS3 one was already and PS4 missed out?
There isn't really anything I'm dying to play, wolfenstein, sniper elite, tomb raider and rayman are all on my radar for sales, I'll be picking up worms at some point regardless of sales.
Slash all the games
Sony should make a special promotion, for three days ONLY each NEW PSN account (created within 7 days before the promotion end) can download 2 games of their choice (no matter what) for FREE.
Ha, that surely would make plenty more pople convert, more than already did!
This is disappointing, just brought Abs so that better not be going down lol, Battlefield 4 maybe one is pick up if it went to better than half price lol
To be honest, that's the great thing about these sales because if you don't see something you like now then odds-on you'll see something that tickles your fancy later.
With the summer hols just started I can't say I blame PlayStation for holding back on the big discounts for the moment because they know that many parents will be buying extra games for the kids whether there are good discounts or not. It'll be hard to be patient and wait for tasty discounts but I'll be trying.
Discounted next week... added to the IGC in September.
Europe only?
No america? We only see pure pool discount...
SCEA is ran by idiots. Since I joined this sight I realized how bad SCEA is compared to SCEE.
Don't be so aggressive, thanks - get2sammyb
Hopefully by sale they actually mean at decent prices, not prices that are still double in shops. Lego Movie should be no more than a tenner, for example. It's a sale, not a 'couple of quid off event.'
@Dohv Amusing. SCEE are so bad it's laughable. They don't give a damn about customers, repeatedly lie and ignore complaints. God knows what SCEA must be like.
