Sales are IME just as good on console as steam. And to semi-confirm I took a look at few big recentish titles and one older one and using websites like Steamdb and psndeals recorded the lowest price (non-PS+) for my region (CAN).
Deus Ex Mankind Divided: PSN: $5.99, Steam: $5.24
Mortal Kombat 11: PSN: $17.49 Steam: $17.49
Call of Duty 4 Remastered: PSN: $19.99 Steam: 24.99
Oh and for whatever reason PSN doesn't charge taxes in my region but Steam does so PSN is actually 15% cheaper.
Obviously this is just a tiny sample of games I could think of and more comparison could be done but IME PC prices are not significantly lower if at all. Humble Bundles might be an exception on a per game basis but you also get a lot of crap you may not have otherwise bought...
Games go on sale on PSN/Live/eShop all the time, every weekend and week there's usually something. Might not be the best deal ever on a game but that applies to Steam too.
