PlayStation is treating us this festive season by hosting a Holiday Sale in the US, as well as what it's calling the January Sale in other parts of the world including the UK. For the past few days, these exclusive sales have only been accessible to PS Plus subscribers, but that's all about to change as the full sale season kicks off today! Enjoy big savings, and deals on the years most popular games.

I'm anticipating some very big savings, as we've already seen up to 75% off discounts as part of PlayStation's 30th Anniversary Sale (why are there so many sales?). As a proud owner of a PlayStation 5 console, I've picked out some top deals below on games that I'd definitely buy, and I think other gamers will love too.
