Unlike in the past, download sales of game titles have become widespread, making it easier to play classic games these days.
I wish I could tell my student days when I used to run around to the few game stores in the countryside in search of used game software that I wanted to play....
Now, the PlayStation Store is holding a sale highlighting such timeless classics! It's called the "PLAYSTATION RETRO Sale"!
You might think it's just a sale of retro games, but it also includes relatively new titles, including remakes at reasonable prices!
I'd like to introduce some recommended titles and titles with high discount rates based on my own prejudice again!
Up to 85% off!
Perhaps because this sale focuses mainly on retro games, the number of titles which is 73, included in the sale is small, but there are some classics that you may want to check out.
However, there are many great titles, so you're sure to find something you want to play!
Once again, PS PLUS subscribers can save even more on some titles!
