Some PSN updates

=================== PSN UK ======================

Either a pricing error or official price, Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition (PS4) is definitely cheaper than its PS3 version on UK PSN, priced at just £9.49 (US$14.3), this is the cheapest Sleeping Dogs for PS4 at this moment. Since we don't know what makes the price so low, it could be that this is a pricing error. So if you want to take advantage you should do it quick. This has been confirmed as the deal of the week for PS4.


==================== PSN JP ======================


Japan-made Indie Hack and Slash game that was released on Steam, Croixleur, has its PS4 port released in JP PSN called Croixleur Sigma (Japanese Only) for 1500 Yen ($12.4) and will include its PS Vita version as well (will release later this year). If you are fans of the game, you may want to check this out. Also PS4/Vita version has additional characters and perks listed by Gematsu.

If the game above is not your style, you can also get the animated 2D fighting game Skullgirls Encore (PS3) from PSN JP for 770 Yen ($6.4). The price is only valid until April 1st Japan Standard Time. This game has full English support, we've tested it.

If you are fans of Japanese games on PSP you can check this link for the full list of games being offered on this sale. They are the best cheap games on Japanese PSN at this moment. Bear in mind that except for Skullgirls Encore, all other games are not guaranteed to carry English language option.

Legend of Heroes -Sen no Kiseki- got its DLC for sale this month. The DLCs are all crossbuy for PS3 and Vita version. It's a bit shame that the game itself is not cheap at 3400 Yen ($28).

=================PSN HK/Asia ===================

Jump to PSN HK, one interesting update is, the free-to-play quirky game Shake Spears! is now released in Asian region for PS3 and PS Vita. If you wonder why it entered our list? Well, it doesn't cost a dime and if you are a user with Asian PSN account, you can now use your own region to purchase add-ons, and no need to swap Vita memory card if you are using Asian account on your Vita.

Next! Marie Rose, Nyotengu, and Phase 4 character DLC price for Dead or Alive 5 (PS3) has at last been dropped to HK$30 on Asian PSN. Now they are priced just the same as standard characters. If you are playing DOA5 Ultimate or Core Fighters and have been waiting for these characters prices to drop, now is the time to buy. If you want to get all three of them, get the bundle at HK$77 here.

There are some discount for PS Plus members in Asian PSN, but most of the games that are under HK$100 are titles we are not familiar with. You may check them here.
