Bad month for those of us that buy games in sales

 

[31GhostsIV]

Well, that's utter shite on PS4. It's become the norm though unfortunately, so not surprised.

 

[maouvin]

Everyone go play Freedom Wars. Game needs more love.

 

[Vashetti]

I thought Freedom Wars was on IGC before. Am I crazy?

Certifiably insane.

 

[Ridley327]

I thought Freedom Wars was on IGC before. Am I crazy?

Soul Sacrifice, the other Sony funded hunting action game, was on IGC.

 

[Nattan]

Great month. Freedom Wars is a great game and people should give it a try.

 

[EdwardTeach]

eek just bought freedom wars for £10!

 

[Ventara]

First meh month for me, simply because I already have both Vita game. Well, I've read good things about Blood Dragon, so there's that, at least.

 

[GunBR]

It's Xmas, so I was waiting for some surprises.

Maybe we get something during PS4, at least a free PS1 or PS2 game for the PS4

Spoiler

Or our savior Knack

 

[Stone Ocean]

To all the people complaining: Only Episode 1 of King's Quest has been released, with the rest of the episodes to follow at some unspecified date. It's unreasonable to expect to get games that haven't even come out yet.

Because there's zero chance we're also getting the other episodes, effectively wasting one of the PS4's games on an extendend demo, since if we like the game we'll have to buy it anyways.

 

[Draft]

Sell 30 million consoles and don't have to worry about putting anything good on your "free" games service. Dirty Sony.

 

[jwk94]

I guess I can try Freedom Wars. PS+ has been pretty shit ever since PS4 launched.

It kinda has. I mean it's a decent month, but I would've liked some retail games or at least 3D games on PS4. Does Gauntlet have online coop?

 

[Rain City Gamer]

Awful PS4 month.

This^^^

 

[PBY]

I think your enjoyment of some of these items depends on whether you have/use the entire family of PS platforms.

If you really only care about the ps4, its a rough month. Which is weird, because you'd expect them to put out quality stuff to push BF sales. Guess not.

 

[valkillmore]

It would be sweet if we started getting backwards compatible ps2 games as part of PSPlus.

I'd fuck with Katamari Damacy on PS4.

 

[BadHand]

May have to dust off the old PS3, never got round to either SSX or Blood Dragon.

 

[MUnited83]

wut

 

[adj_noun]

Is it a complete story or episodic like the TT games?

Or is their way of restarting the enumeration so that they don't call it KQ9?

Complete-ish. The story the episode tells is self-contained, but there's an overarching narrative that will continue in the next episode.

 

[Vashetti]

Soul Sacrifice, the other Sony funded hunting action game, was on IGC.

Maybe if I hold out long enough they'll give away Soul Sacrifice Delta >.<

 

[lt519]

Almost bought Freedom Wars for $5 just to see what it was all about.

They should have done something bigger for PS4 to try and boost PS+ sales for holidays.

 

[Crankshaft]

This is the first month that there is an actual PS4 game that I want to play. Can't wait for Gauntlet!

 

[Lucifon]

PS4 offering continues to be poor, I swear it's getting worse and worse. Many suspected they'd step it up for Christmas...but I guess not.

 

[canedaddy]

Freedom Wars, yeah! Almost bought that the other day.

Not super excited about the rest of the lineup (already own Blood Dragon).

Hate seeing the abominable, series-killing SSX on there.

 

[RealityCheque]

Great for PS3 and Vita.

PS4....not so much.

 

[maltrain]

That's the best month for PS+ in a long time.

Since Rocket League for me.

I was waiting for a sale for buying Gauntlet and King's Quest.

Freedom Wars worth the month alone....

 

[Redhood]

Terrible month! I am not gonna resubscribe. The quality has seriously dropped after the launch of PS4.

 

[Griss]

Did we not have Blood Dragon before? I know I didn't buy it... Maybe that was a demo I tried? EU here.

 

[MrDaravon]

Like half of this thread I guess it's finally time to see what the hell Freedom Wars is all about! Everything else is crap for me.

Also I thoroughly enjoying the extreme gulf of opinions every month on GAF over the PS+ stuff. Every page will have people saying it's awesome and/or the best month, followed by the other half saying it's shit and they're unsubbing.

 

[eFKac]

Gauntlet right after Magicka? Come on...I'll take Kings Quest though, never enough point n click adventures!

 

[D1renegade]

Damn.. the ether I feel since i bought Freedom Wars on Day 1....

The rest of the games listed are meh...

Spoiler

trash

Maybe January will be better.

 

[shmoglish]

Cool. Gauntlet was on my buy when cheap list and KQ looks interesting. Never finished Blood Dragon. Is Fwars MP only? SSX was ok, same for rocketbirds

 

[darkside31337]

They should have just taken the month off. Embarrassing really. PS4 offerings are unbelievably poor.

 

[Kalor]

I've been wanting to try King's Quest so this will help me know if I want to buy the rest of them when they come out. I never got round to Blood Dragon and thought about Freedom Wars so this is a good month for me.

 

[AndreH121]

In a way just releasing Episode 1 Is like a demo but that episode is quite a bit longer than the ones in the Telltale Games series. I bought the season pass when it was first released and it was almost the equivalent of a full-price AAA title if I remember correctly.

 

[Ray Down]

Is it a complete story or episodic like the TT games?

Or is their way of restarting the enumeration so that they don't call it KQ9?

Compete for the most part, each episode Graham is telling a story that took place in his life to his granddaughter.

Like this one is the trails he went through to join the knights

There is an overreaching narrative that you will see and gets hints at through out the episode.

 

[Xeroblade]

didnt we get Freedom Wars on vita free already? Or am I drunk?

 

[Brew124]

Sounds like a good month to me. I'm in for Gauntlet, Kings Quest, Blood Dragon, and Freedom Wars.

 

[Aces&Eights]

Anyone on PS3 that hasn't played Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, the soundtrack alone is God tier.

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Lol King's Question?

 

[jwk94]

wut

I'm just not interested in the current output. I want something with a big or at least decent scope. I want an open-world game or something with an open-level structure in a 3D environment.

 

[Sjefen]

Wow this month kicks ass, I need to play all of them.

 

[Intel_89]

Following Magicka 2 and TWD S2 with two games of the same'ish genre, there's that too.

 

[GitarooMan]

Man, I bought Gauntlet and didn't play it a lot...oh well. Cool game though.

 

[TalonJH]

Wow, giving away Freedom Wars. Great game. Maybe my second favorite Vita game.

 

[Fupri]

I bought SSX this month.. It was £3 on PSN & now it's free.. Wtf, lol

 

[comshoplesce]

whoever wants knack + uk resident

http://www.thegamecollection.net/sale/christmas/knack-bundle-copy-ps4.html

6,95 and enjoy it

 

[sam777]

Pretty shit for PS4 tbh.

Thats very specific, I guess you will be dissapointed many months of the years....

 

[Paertan]

I already have Gauntlet and Blood Dragon for PC otherwise I would be thrilled =P

Blood Dragon is awesome!
