This month's PlayStation Plus lineup isn't looking all that tasty, but the latest wave of European PlayStation Store sales should have you salivating in no time. On the cut-price menu this month are a slew of PlayStation 4 double discounts, which will see you pocketing savings of up to 70 per cent on mouth-watering titles like Saints Row IV, Toukiden Kiwami, and Dishonored: Definitive Edition.
Many of the offers will run through until 18th November, but there's simply so much up for grabs that we recommend turning your attention to the PlayStation Blog for the full selection. Of course, there are hundreds of games on offer for the PlayStation 3 and Vita as well, with titles like Battlefield 3 at an outrageous 80 per cent off. We'd strongly recommend pointing your peepers through here – but don't forget to tell us what you're buying in the comments section below.

Maybe people will stop moaning about Plus for a while, if your an actual consumer it's insane value for money.
I just got Arcana heart 3 love max for vita, i love portable fighting games and I want one more game for my PS4, but I cant decide which one...
@GamingPenguin People stop moaning about plus?? This will never happen until they get Knack haha
Sherlock Holmes for under a tenner? Done! Just that and Disgaea 4 for me this month, need to save some money back for my gaming christmas jumper (still can't decide which to get though - Blanka vs Bison, Guile vs Cammy, or the Fallout 4 one?!)
@GamingPenguin As someone who who is letting their subscrption run out and has no interest whatsoever in renewing it, I couldn't disagree with you more. Bar the odd intriguing title here and there, PS+ has been dreadful for two years. Whether it be poor choices in games (retail and indie), games that I already own, games that have been included in sales at a very cheap price a couple of weeks before given away or sales like this which is just a normal sale but the deals are just halved for people without PS+ to make it seem better.
Now you have to have the service on PS4 Sony have stopped trying to get people on it as it's compulsory. The service has gone downhill in the eyes of many and they're entitled to "moan" just as much as the people who moan about the moaners - and there are much more of them! - especially if they don't feel the service is value for money. I've spent £80 on the last two years of PS+ - know how many games I've enjoyed off it? One. Yakuza 4, a title I already owned and was halfway through but the disc was broke. £80 for one five year old game.
It may be value for money for some but it isn't for everyone. Sadly the people who do have issues with it, such as myself, are drowned out by the idiots who want AAA games every month - despite there being only a handful of AA games ever given away with PS+, let alone AAA. The only AAA game in it's history given away was Red Dead.
@Melucine
I would totally get Guilty Gear Xrd, it's a wonderful game and the price is more then fair atm.
I myself am thinking bout buying Toukiden Kiwami; I love the Vita version and I'd like to play it on my PS4 too, but €30 is a lot of money for a game I'll most likely end up playing 3 to 4 hours tops. There is simply too much to play these months and buying it "just in case", has cost me quite a lot of money over the years (my wife actually calls me 'Justin Case' ). I wish I was one of those people who can let the hype of a new release pass em by and play the games I didn't finish yet first. But since pre ordering got so damn cheap I have like 6 or 7 pretty recent releases still waiting for me to really tackle them.
And folks, do yourself a favor and buy PES 2016: it'll easily be the best €36 you'll spend this year.
@mrobinson91 you are so right even though most the indie games we have got, are better than Knack
Does it not seem that the 'sale' prices just reflect the price they go for on Amazon?
I dont get why people make digital purchases, you are paying to rent the game. If you own a physical copy you can sell it & make some money back.
@Nifty because reselling games hurts the industry, I'm guilty of it in the past but now I but new and don't sell, so I can support the developers
@Boerewors
I was thinking about it, but even though I like those kind of games I am not that good and Guilty Gear was always hard.
The second game I am thinking is Toukiden, will try the demo again before deciding.
For me it's AC Rogue and Fuse
Also thinking about PES for PS4 but I'm not sure, since I've been a Fifa guy since I left PES4 behind
PES is tempting
PES is tempting
Nothing really stands out for me, the discounts for most games aren't too big. Still, if you haven't played Black Flag £12.50 is a steal
@Anchorsam_9 To be fair that game is screaming to be put on PS Plus soon
@rastamadeus if you have only enjoyed 1 game, out of hundereds, your either just ignoring great games because they are indie or your not much of a gamer. There has been lots of games for just about everyone's taste. Your probably better off without Plus if your that fussy. 6 games a month for 2 years and you only like 1, that's just weird, sorry but it is.
@Boerewors I refuse to give Konami a penny these days so I'll stick with Fifa.
@Anchorsam_9 I got Black Flag for £12 pre owned. Deffo worth the digital purchase too.
@WARDIE
Lol, we discussed both games before... It got nothing to do with Konami, you old fanboy you
EA, Konami, Activision... They're all out to screw us. EA just buys it's way into a monopoly on several of our most loved sports, buys great studios to wreck em and have tried to force online passes, origin and lots of other crap upon us, so they're no better than Konami.
@Boerewors Lol. The main reason I don't want to support Konami is to do with the Metal Gear business and them taking their IP's over to mobile and turning their back on consoles. I do actually like PES to be fair
@WARDIE
What Konami is doing with the FOBs and micro transactions is despicable, but them closing down the LA office and focusing on mobile, well, it's just business. They should've treated Kojima better, and their other employees for all that matters, but I can't really be mad at them for leaving this crazy industry; there's so much risk involved in games like MGS and the rewards are relatively low. They make much more with mobile games, pachinko machines and their fitness centers without running the risk of 1 or 2 failed games bankrupting the company.
I honestly hope they don't leave PES behind, and that they'll give studios acces to the FOX engine, for a nice fee ofcourse. That engine has proven it's worth by now and PES is finally back where it belongs, it would be a shame to throw the investment away. I therefor believe they'll leave the industry phased and sit this gen out with less risky projects to recoup the initial costs for the Fox engine.
I am going to get Lunar: Silver star Harmony and DOA:Last Round, since I 'm having quite a lot of fun with the core fighters version...
Nothing for me in the Plus titles, nothing for me in the sale, nothing for me in the store update. Ho hum!
Still, I'm glad. I'm doing Driveclub Bikes at the moment, I still have lots to do in Project Cars, I still need to finish Dying Light, I still have to play Uncharted 2 & 3, and Just Cause 3 is out next month... so it's not as if I've nothing to play!
@GamingPenguin I think a lot of the post was hyperbole. I'd agree that the last two years have been fairly garbage (PlayStation Pus anyone?) but that would be glossing over amazing titles like Transistor, Rocket League and First Light. There have been some great little games sprinkled among the detritus.
Loving these savings!!
Black flag for £12.49 is the one for me from this bunch. Bargain.
I think the PS+ lineup is great, certainly better value than most of the stuff in this sale as far as I'm concerned. But different people like different things so you can't please everyone. I think you could put Fallout 4 in there along with Battlefront and the new CoD and you'd still get people moaning.
To be honest reselling old games takes a lot of effort at the payout next to nothing here in the netherlands.
As a new Vita owner, I was happy with Need for Speed and Wipeout 2048 going for £9 and £4.80 respectively. The physical games were retailing for way more. Of course, I now have an even bigger backlog of games to get through.
