EA Sports FC 25 costs just £15 in huge PlayStation Store summer sale
Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6, Silent Hill 2, and EA Sports FC 25 have all received significant discounts in the latest PlayStation Store sale.
Summer might be the least active time of year for the gaming release calendar, but it's arguably one of the best times to pick up a bargain.
Amazon Prime Day has been and gone (although some discounts are still up) but there's also events like the Steam Summer Sale. Beyond that, the PlayStation Store always has a summer event, which is usually better than Sony's other sales throughout the year.
This year's sale is live from today until August 13, with more additions set to be added from July 29. It's a really good line-up too, with sizeable discounts across big franchises like Call Of Duty and Assassin's Creed.
For football fans, the main draw will be EA Sports FC 25 at £14.69, which is a massive 79% off the original price. This discount comes in advance of the next game's unveiling this week, but it is also another indicator that last year's entry fell below sales expectations. More Trending
Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 has similarly been reduced, as the series' next entry, Black Ops 7, is due to be unveiled at Gamescom next month. Activision's juggernaut shooter is 45% off, at £38.49, which is a pretty cheap price for a current Call Of Duty title.

A bunch of games out this year have been reduced too, including The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered at £39.99 and Assassin's Creed Shadows which is 25% off.
As for deals on the ultra cheap end of the spectrum, Borderlands 3 is a mere £5.99, if you want to gauge whether you'll click with its upcoming sequel. The Quarry, one of Supermassive's better narrative horror adventures, is also a steal at £8.44.
You can check out all the deals through the PlayStation Store, but we've compiled some of the best bargains below. If you're in the market for a PlayStation 5 console, Sony has knocked £90 off those too.

I got to see Ozzy's last gig thanks to Metro - it was the best day of my life
Ian Burnip was sitting in hospital receiving chemotherapy when he made one last ditch attempt to see Ozzy Osbourne live. The 38-year-old had been excited for months to see his Black Sabbath idol at their last ever concert at Birmingham's Villa Park Stadium on July 5. Ian, who uses a wheelchair and suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy, however learnt just days before that he would not be able to attend the gig with the standing ticket he bought due to 'health and safety' policy. After trying desperately to be allowed to watch the show, he got in contact with Metro, who made sure he saw the famous musician one last time. The heavy metal artist died on Tuesday after a devastating battle with Parkinson's over the last few years. With his health in decline, Ozzy planned to bring his acclaimed career to an end at the Villa Park show earlier this month. Back in February, Ian was unable to get accessible tickets to the final concert due to a huge waitlist. So instead the Aston Villa season ticket holder paid over £500 for a standing ticket for him and an aid through the club's presale scheme. As a regular visitor to the club and someone who worked there as a TV producer, Ian had believed the pitch was accessible and that he would be fine to attend with a standing ticket. But after months of anticipation following his breast cancer diagnosis in November, he was shell shocked just three days before the gig when Aston Villa sent out information saying mobility aids were banned from the pitch for health and safety reasons. Ian told us: 'It was like being stabbed in the heart. 'They are a band that my dad, who passed away a couple of years ago, had introduced me to. 'I was looking forward to this being a special treat that I had lined up in my life. And it was snatched away by this policy right at the last minute.' Ian desperately rung up Aston Villa but claims he was told that the concert's promoters Live Nation were responsible for the health and safety restrictions. But when he contacted Live Nation, they told him health and safety was the venue Villa Park's responsibility. Metro has seen an email from Live Nation to Ian, where the promoter says that. Running out of options and worn out due to the chemotherapy, he got in touch with us the night before the show to raise awareness of his plea for a seat to the show. Ian said: 'They made an access adjustment for Ozzy Osbourne so he can do the gigs, but they can't make an access adjustment for me to go the venue and see the show. 'I'd spent 48hrs fighting for access, a reasonable adjustment. 'It looked like I would miss out on this important memory – yet another gig I couldn't get to because of a lack of accessible facilities.' Once we heard from Ian we contacted both Live Nation and Aston Villa with his story and asked what could be done. That is when it all changed. Ian explained: 'Then Metro took on the case and heard my story – while I was sitting getting chemo treatment! 'Within an hour I had tickets which I could use, and was one of no more than 70 lucky wheelchair users who would witness an historic moment in music history.' He was also thankful for last minutes adjustments of all involved, including Villa and Live Nation, for finding him a space. 'I will be forever grateful that they sorted it out, and enabled me to attend,' Ian added. Because of this adjustment, Ian got to see Ozzy Osbourne's star-studded last performance.

As his band put on a stunning performance, he made an arrival on stage in a black throne with a bat on the top before belting out some of his best-known heavy metal hits. Known as the Prince of Darkness, he said 'let the madness begin' at the beginning of the show as his wife Sharon and daughter Kelly watched on from the crowd. Throughout the performance, Ozzy repeatedly thanked the 42,000 fans who had come to watch him sing. At one point, he was even heard saying 'you have no idea how I feel', as the crowd cheered him on. Just as the gig was closing, Ozzy gave fans one heartbreaking final message. The singer said: 'It's the last song ever. Your support has enabled us to live an amazing lifestyle, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.' Metro is also the official media partner of 2026 Scope Awards that will take place next year. Every year, the charity puts out a call for anyone who thinks they might have a friend, family member, colleague, neighbour, or celebrity they think is worthy of a nomination for the awards.

He said: 'I was like a kid at Christmas, having not allowed myself to get too enticed by what seemed for a host of reasons to be a pipe dream. More Trending 'It was a special day, one that I will never forget. The whole thing was superbly crafted to make it a meaningful, momentous event which spoke to people from all walks of life, as members of the metal family.' 'I was heartbroken when I saw that Ozzy had died. But at least I was able to see him and Sabbath one last time, especially as a Brummie and a Villa fan, at Villa Park.' Metro approached Live Nation and Aston Villa for comment on July 4 but did not receive a response when they then arranged accessible seating for Ian. Metro has approached them again for additional comment for this article. Got a story?

Will there be a season 3 of The Sandman? Latest news as season 2 ends
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page Today marks the highly anticipated drop of the last remaining episodes of The Sandman season 2. Fans were devastated to discover that this will be the last ever instalment of the hit show. Netflix has already announced that this will be the last we see of Dream (Tom Sturridge). The announcement came in the wake of serious sexual assault allegations made against the show's co-developer and writer, Neil Gaiman. Often referred to as Stranger Things' long-lost brother, the Netflix series has received great reviews – and has a score of 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. Get personalised updates on all things Netflix Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter.

The second season focuses on love and loss as Dream looks to rebuild everything he has lost since season one. Will there be a season 3 of The Sandman? Fans were gutted to discover this is the last ever season of the popular dark drama (Picture: Netflix) Well, if that information didn't solidify the answer for you… No, there won't be a Sandman season three. Dream's adventures come to an end today, as the streaming service releases the final five episodes. The Sandman's showrunner, Allan Heinberg, did not mention Gaiman nor the allegations when he shared a statement on behalf of the show's conclusion. 'The Sandman series has always been focused exclusively on Dream's story, and back in 2022, when we looked at the remaining Dream material from the comics, we knew we only had enough story for one more season,' he told Netflix's Tudum. Many fans were left confused after Heinberg's statement, as The Sandman comic has 75 issues – which seems a lot to squeeze into two seasons. Still, it's not all bad news. On July 31, Netflix will release a special episode focused on Dream's sister Death, which will serve as an epilogue of sorts to the show. How many episodes of The Sandman are there? Dream suffers many complex relationships and encounters throughout the season (Picture: Netflix, Inc./Ed Miller. All Rights Reserved) There are 22 episodes across two seasons of The Sandman (that's eleven in each season). Netflix dropped the series in two halves, keeping viewers hanging on that cliff. The first six episodes of the new season dropped on July 3, with the following five landing on Netflix today. Comic fans will be gutted to learn that this is the last they will see of the Mortals, Dreams, Endless and Other beings. Who is in the cast of The Sandman? There has been lots of controversy surrounding the series due to serious allegations against the co-developer and writer, Neil Gaiman (Picture:) Tom Sturridge leads the cast as Dream, AKA The Sandman, who is responsible for watching over all of humanity as they sleep. In these tumultuous episodes, Dream attempts to rebuild his kingdom as he embarks on his epic final journey. The cast all work tightly together to ensure dreams run smoothly, with many dark twists and turns. The Sandman cast Dream – Tom Sturridge Lucienne – Vivienne Acheampong Matthew the Raven – Patton Oswalt The Corinthian – Boyd Holbrook Desire – Mason Alexander-Park Nada – Umulisa Gahiga Fate mother – Nina Wadier Fate Crone – Souard Faress Fate Maiden – Denita Gohil Death – Kirby (Formerly Kirby Howell-Baptiste) Lucifer Morningstar – Gwendoline Christie Rose Walker – Kyo Ra How are fans reacting to The Sandman season 2 part 2? Will the latest drop of episodes live up to fans' expectations?(Picture: COURTESY OF NETFLIX) Fans can't believe this is the last they will see of The Sandman cast as the streaming service has cancelled any possibility of a following season – despite its immense success. Some Sandman fans were gutted to learn that this would be the last release of the much-loved comic book adaptation. @waste-snow23 on Reddit said: 'I'm so so sad about this. I waited so many years for this adaptation. I understand why it was cancelled, but I loved the Sandman series dearly.' Don't let the Gaiman allegations ruin the dream... Our Deputy TV Editor, Tom Percival, shares his thoughts on The Sandman Season 2 Part 1… 'We do not choose to be created, nor do we choose how we are made.' In the first season of The Sandman on Netflix, these words are uttered by Lord Morpheus (Tom Sturridge), otherwise known as Dream. In the context of the show, Dream is referring to everyone's lack of agency in their inception. It's essentially a slightly pretentious way of saying 'you can't help where you come from'. Going into season 2, Morpheus's words feel especially apt due to the large shadow cast over the show by its co-creator, Neil Gaiman. While Gaiman denies the allegations, I understand why people may not want to watch the show. However, I believe so much more to the series than one man. In my opinion, The Sandman season two is every bit as beguiling, bold and brilliant as the first, managing to somehow elevate the source material. To take this back to the opening quote, Dream can't help who made him. So maybe we shouldn't let the circumstances of his creation rob us of arguably the best fantasy series Netflix has ever made. Read the full Sandman Season 2 review here. 'A big step up from Season 1. Kind of makes me sad that this is the last one.' @certainalbatross added. Other viewers were glad to see the demise of Gainman's emperor, @brat-sampsin98 said: 'He doesn't deserve to earn a penny. I'm glad he's seeing his legacy destroyed.' Fans noted that the streaming service's decision to axe the show was the right move considering the severity of the allegations made, but others felt for the cast who may have wished to tell the full story and have had their characters' journeys cut short. @ithinkther41am on Reddit said: 'It's really a shame Gaiman turned out to be a monster, because this was clearly a labour of love for everyone involved.' The Sandman is available to watch now on Netflix. Got a story?
