Which of the games included with your membership did you play (and/or enjoy) the most this year?

As a reminder:
PS Plus list – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Instant_Game_Collection_games_(North_America)
GWG list – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Games_with_Gold_games

For me it was Slime Rancher. I had never heard of the game, but my kids and I had a lot of fun with it.

My runner up was Powerstar Golf (it was a Japanese alt. one month). Another game I had never heard of. It’s a solid arcade golf game. Obviously it’s not as good as a Hot Shots, but I ended up playing it quite a bit.

How about you?

Fortnite I don't think fits the rules of this topic, but it's easily my most played game this year and it's completely free lmfao...

Other than that, Life is Strange and Worms have been pretty good to me... but neither captured me for too long...

Slime Rancher was my kick back and relax game. So much fun until you create so many slime in one area that the frame rate dips.

Vermin tide looks like it'll be the overall winner in time spent. It's addictive fun like Left 4 Dead, and all my Xbox live friends have it by default so it's always a great group game.

I loved Life is Strange. Dontnod did the Telltale thing so much better than Telltale.

Slime Rancher. Just wanted to check it out and wound up becoming completely engrossed in the game.

well of the ps+ games this yr that i was interested in:

I owned already and therefore disqualified:
Until dawn
Resident evil

I beat:
Day of the tentacle
Tales from the borderlands

In queue:
Mgs5
Life is strange


So Tales by default because its a longer game than Day

This year? Forza 5. I know it's supposed to be terrible or disappointing or whatever, but I've been having fun with it. Stats say I'm at 15 hours.

In the defense of everything else that came out this year, my backlog was already huge, and free games every month don't help shrink it. There's probably several I'd happily throw more time into, but I haven't gotten to them yet.

That was in 2016.

Vermintide was really a surprise and easily wins the title as the best free games, but in general we got a great amount of GwG games this year.

By far, it was Alienation - super nice twinstick shooter. Probably spent around 100h and have a Platinium trophy for it.

Looking over the list, I didn't play many of the "free" games this year at all. A lot of times they don't give games that interest me (I speak only about the PS+ offering as I don't have a Xbox One).
I guess the one I spent the most time with was Tales from the Borderlands. But the one I enjoyed the most would be Until Dawn: Rush of Blood.

Good question. When I go through this list, I see few games I've enjoyed on my ps4 and vita.

In the past months, I loved to play Lovers in a dangerous spacetime, DOTT, VVVVVV, GoT season 1 (except that there is no season 2...), Journey, Just Cause 3, Rocket League, Transformers devastation. And need to play to MGS, Life is strange, Tearaway, Gone Home and Until Dawn. The rest of "free" games were a monthly deception for me, Sony is not doing well.

I really to see more big games like Mad Max, No Man Sky or Dragon Age.

A lot this year honestly.

Lovers in a dangerous spacetime: Great couch Co op game, spent plenty of hours on it.

Ryse: Son of Rome: A must play. I dunno why I've gone so long without it but played through the end. I think I remember them tooting about the Kinect compatibly so everyone stayed away but it's just a fun DmC style 300 game with gorgeous graphics.

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams – Director's Cut: Big fan of Machine Supremacy, and a solid platformer as well. Dunno how I missed this one when it came out.

Watch Dogs: I never bothered to check it out on release, honestly not a big GTA style gamer. Played a few hours and my stance on these games really hasn't changed.

Slime Rancher: became a total hipster and decided it was over hyped. Nah but seriously just never got around to it and Return of Samus came out shortly afterwards. There was no going back.

Vermintide I spend most of the beginning of the year playing so I'm spent on that game. Great L4D style game for anyone that's curious.
