US PS Plus May (Stick it to the Man, PES 2014, Limbo, Puppeteer)

Stick it to the Man is a pretty cool little game. Glad more people will get a chance to check it out.

Yeah, and I think it's a great fit for PS Plus. I personally think the game is really fun while it lasts, but similar to many point-and-click adventures (I think that's the closest genre I could use to describe it) it's not that long and the replayability is somewhat limited, so I imagine some people have been hesitant to pay for it. Getting it for free will result in a lot more people giving a chance, which makes me happy as one of the developers behind the game. :)

Vita gets hella shafted. That is an incredibly weak lineup for the Vita.

Not surprised since SCEA acts like the Vita doesn't exist and could give to two shits about it.
 
Yes Yes Yes.gif

I think PES on + is a huge oppurtunity for Konami, to show how capable their footy game is to the unbelievers.

Skullgirls is great, though i'd rather have it on PC.though I don't have $15 to spare.

I still think puppeteer should've been a launch PS4 game.

Wish we got Murasmasa over Surge.

Played Limbo 4 years ago. Bought Puppeteer for $20 and still felt disappointed by it. No interest in anything else.

Europe got 2 great Vita games that have been on my radar for a while, and I would've been happy with even just one of them. Instead we get trash. This will be the first month since I got PS+ where I don't download anything.

This round goes to Europe. Who hasn't played Limbo at this point? Soccer game for the US doesn't make much sense.

No excuse now for at least trying Skullgirls.

Game is fantastic.

Skullgirls is 3.75 on GMG right now.

What's wrong with Stick It? Was received fairly well, looks like a good bit of fun

Some people feel Sony is sticking it to the PS4 user with the slew of indie games on ps+.

I'll be honest and say ultimately I don't mind even though I don't really dig any of the ps+ games but when you take a look at the other platforms I gotta ask, why do we only get one on PS4?
 
I'll grab Stick it to the Man for when I eventually get a PS4. Nothing else for me really (already own Puppeteer), but I'm okay with basically a month off. I already feel like I'm drowning in games I want to play.

I sucked six dicks to get this tag.
Is plus deteriorating a bit now that it's mandatory for ps4? Kind of seems like it

Didn't This month of april/march just have Arkham City, Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, Thomas Was Alone, and more? Don't see how it's deteriorating...unless you're Vita only then lol.

bad gameplay lol
I feel really dumb for buying Skullgirls now. Y'know, since I bought it at full price when it came out, played it literally less than I played the demo (maybe two or three hours total?), and never touched it again.

Bummer. Keep hoping that we (NA) will get MGR:Revengeance.

Picked Puppeteer up when it was heavily discounted a few months ago and it has its charm. I'll be interested in finally checking out Skullgirls though.
 
Was kinda interested in Stick It to the Man from the Giant Bomb quicklook, so I'm happy to get that (and maybe actually play it, unlike most of my PS+ acquisitions). Skullgirls would be pretty sweet too if I didn't already own it on Steam. Surge Deluxe looks like an interesting diversion, think it got decent reviews on GAF.

Probably won't ever play PES except for a laugh and already played Limbo on PC and no interest in replaying, but hey, why not.

EDIT: Oh right, Puppeteer. I own that game on disc. Played one level of it before I got distracted by other games. Ooops.

Presumably because if they put 2 up every month, they wouldn't have anything left to sell.

It has been for me on PS3 the past couple of months. Actually, mine is due to expire in May anyway and most of the games I have from Plus are games I have already played. Which is why I think I am just going to free up some HDD space and give it a rest for awhile. Thankfully, I can still play online on PS3 without the subscription.

There's enough indie games to give 2 each month.

There's enough indie games to give 3 each month. That's not the point.

You guys are confusing the idea of giving value to a service with eliminating your entire profit margin. They could give away Thief too, but I doubt Eidos would want to take that deal (though, in hindsight, it probably would have been a good idea.)

There are indie devs out there that I'm sure would at least like to attempt to sell their game on it's own merits instead of taking the playstation payout, which we know is fair, but not mindblowing.

So was the Vita when it got Uncharted and Gravity Daze. Let's be frank, they aren't putting any retail games on it because they know they don't absolutely have to.

That and no publishers are taking that deal.

I bet Killzone's singleplayer will go up next month or the month after.
 
Stick it to the Man (PS4) - YYYYYYYEEEEESSSSSSS! I was looking foward to this since the announcement but I have way to may games on my backlog so I never bought it. =)

Puppeteer (PS3) - Have it. played it. Still gonna go for platinum. Really good game. Amazing 3D.

Skullgirls Encore (PS3)
- Don't care for fighting game not named Streetfighter. =P

Pro Evo Soccer 2014 (PS3) - Brilliant! I haven't bought a football game in ages. Will get the World Cup DLC for sure.

Surge Deluxe (Vita) - Never heard of it. Is it good?

Limbo (Vita) - Have it. Loved it.

The system was over a year old (in Japan at least), when they launched Plus on Vita in late November of 2012. The PS4 is barely 6 months old.

Fun fact: I bought Puppeteer at launch and didn't even play it yet.

Now I must sell it on eBay ASAP before it loses all resale value.
 
Really horrible month for Vita, especially considering how good the EU Vita lineup is. Surge Deluxe is supposed to be good but its full price is only $5 and Limbo has been in numerous sales & bundles before this.

At least, this means that more people will play Puppeteer.
