There are a total of 121 titles available for all generations of Sony platforms, but the lack of AAA titles takes off some of the luster
Sony Corp.’s (NYSE:SNE) PlayStation has been the pinnacle of the gaming universe with the different generations of the hardware having become the “to go” device for all things gaming.
A while back, Sony announced a special limited edition and controller to mark the 20th anniversary of the company's entrance into gaming and then announced some more special accessories for the console.
The 20th anniversary initiative continues as Sony recently updated its PlayStation Store with new games available at big discounts as part of the “PlayStation 20th Anniversary Sale.” As of right now, the sale is only available to customers in North America.
It is interesting to note that there are not many titles available on discount for the current generation PlayStation 4. Some of the titles on sale include Activision Blizzard Inc.’s (NASDAQ:ATVI) Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls and Call of Duty Advanced Warfare. We also have Metro 2033 and Metro Last Light Redux for the PS4 at an awesome price of $7.5 each.
The bulk of the games that are included in the sale however, are for the PlayStation 3 which is unsurprising since Sony is aiming to retaining its player base and also some revenue with Sony’s older generation system. The sale includes Electronic Arts Inc.’s (NASDAQ:EA) Burnout Paradise Ultimate Edition which is available for just $6 for the PlayStation 3. The game is one of the best party games on the platform and is a must-have for people who are interested in having fun with innovative challenges for a party of up to eight players.
The sale also includes Max Payne 3: The Complete Edition and Lara Croft and the Guardian of the Light both of which are available for $6. The very popular Ni No Koni: The Wrath of the White Witch is also available for $6. This is a great chance for gamers who have not played the game up till now and the discount does not get any better than this.
You can check out the full sale along with prices at the USA PlayStation Store Page. While the sale has a large number of titles available on discounts, the lack of AAA titles is disappointing and we hope that Sony adds popular titles in future.
