Finally, lots of stuff for the PlayStation 4. But how awesome is it really? There's a lack of a full-fledged game, even in the indie scene.

It's very exciting for Final Fantasy MMO fans. FFXIV finally hits the new-generation console at a discount. Other than that? A couple of board games, trick racing, and some trivia game that should include a case of beer with its price.

Definitely stay away from Sony's absurd price of a full retail game for Beyond: Two Souls digitally. It can currently be had for just $32.30, and you'll definitely find it cheaper if you're patient.

Believe it or not, Vita wins this week in content. Conception II is a turn-based RPG for those that need something new after Persona 4 Golden. Dead Nation has been re-released for the portable, Ethan: Meteor Hunter is a solid price and ported over from the PS3, and you can't go wrong with a free game.

PSN GAME/DLC DISCOUNTS

Pure Chess has a game packages on sale, but I won't be listing them here. Those that are even getting the board game might as well pick up the whole darn thing for 12 bucks. Otherwise, the game packs are $2.24  each while the Batallion, Easter Island, and Halloween chest sets run $0.89 each.

Otherwise, the LEGO series is on sale, as well as NBA 2K14 and its DLC.

• Burgertime World Tour - $4.99
• Darksiders II - $39.99
• Draw Slasher (Vita) - $1.50
• Ethan: Meteor Hunter (PS3/Vita) - $7.99
• God Mode - $4.99
• LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (PS3/Vita) - $12.59
• LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (PS3) - $12.59
• LEGO Legends of Chima: Laval's Journey (Vita) - $12.59
• LEGO Lord of the Rings (PS3/Vita) - $12.59
• LEGO Marvel Super Heroes (PS4) - $31.49 / (PS3) - $25.19 / (Vita) - $18.89
• NBA 2K14 (PS4) - $49.99 / (PS3) - $29.99
• NBA 2K14 Blue Diamond Jewelry Collection - $12.49
• NBA 2K14 Gold Jewelry Collection - $2.49
• NBA 2K14 Platinum Jewelry Collection - $4.99
• NBA 2K14 Spanish Commentary Pack - $2.49
• TMNT: OOTS Character Avatar Pack - Free
• Trine 2 - $5.99

Seriously, the Spanish commentary costs money for NBA 2K14? C'mon guys...

Otherwise, for the crazy LEGO fans that can't get enough of their adventure games, I highly recommend picking these games up on sale. Playing the Lord of the Rings edition is the only way I can sit through that story, because any of those movies put me to sleep in one hour or less. Guaranteed! Plus, it's cheaper than getting all the movies, and will probably take less time to complete.

Which is weird...

INSTANT GAME COLLECTION

This week's free game is Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse on the PS3. No, I haven't played Disney games since the Super NES era with Aladdin. And this game probably isn't as good as Aladdin, so I may skip on this adventure. We'll see what the weekend brings.

Speaking of Aladdin, isn't it about time we get a remake of that fantastic game? C'mon [insert random indie developer here], you know you want to!

Enjoy the rest of your week, everyone!
