Oh come on, this is bullshit. I actually would have watched Logan and Boss Baby, but I guess we Europeans aren't that important.

Shit month for me. I would rather take a good indie game over a broken AAA game like JC3. I hope Freedom Cry is decent at least.

Just Cause 3 isn't even worth a download if the performance is the same as it's been since release, and from all accounts it seems to be on the base PS4. Not only is it a disappointing sequel, but it runs like absolute garbage.

Their patches trying to fix the in comparison minor framerate problems at launch made the framerate MUCH worse. Your early experience is useless now.

I too enjoyed and platinumed the game shortly after launch, but I'm not blind to the obvious problems subsequent patches caused.

So what version will be released on PlayStation Plus next week? The broken one or the one with minor framerate problems?

No wonder Just Cause 3 is on sale fon Steam and free to play this week-end.
I hoped for a full AC game and not a small add-on like AC4 or Unity but that is fine.
The thing that bothers me is that Just Cause 3 didn't get any PS4 PRO support even a small one. Boost mode helps a little but that is all.
This game could have profited from PRO power so much.

Giving us Just Cause 3 for "free" is like giving us a free turd. Surely you were aware of this game's embarrassing performance issues, so why give this to us? It's more of an insult than a reward.

Sony was telling the truth when they said they wanted to increase the value of ps plus. 3rd solid month in a row.

This whole year has been really solid. Definitely the best so far for PS4.

The PS+ discounts have been great as well.

I'll have to make sure I try out Freedom Cry



I really doubt this will happen. I don't think they really care. I'd stomach the performance issues if they patched out those mini games. Will never not be upset about those.

Yeah for sure, I lost hope ages ago. I tried to power through it but it was just rough to play through.

Just cause is a a diamond in the rough. Worse loading times than GTA, more crashes than a Bethesda game and crazy framerate drops when standing around. But blowing stuff up is cool.

I'd be really excited about this if JC3 didn't have such a bad rep on consoles. I might just wait for a good Steam sale if I can't stand the slowdown.

I was really disappointed that they didn't give it stronger support.

I managed to beat the game. 3rd island was really rough. Don't think I can where revisit the game though

Different regions get different deals sometimes. It has nothing to do w/ Europeans being 'less important'. You get sales we don't. Big deal.

Oh FFS I completely forgot to download it! :(

Is it still possible?

As someone else said, yes. Also of note, you only ever have to 'buy' it during the month. Once it's bought, you can download whenever you want while you have your sub.

Awesome month for me. Been casually wanting to play JC3 for a while now, and I've never played an AC game so that's a treat as well.

Also - don't sleep on Downwell. I already have it and it's a really fun timekiller.

Another really good month, only really April has let me down this year and even then it was an alright month, just wasn't interested in anything. Hopefully Sony can keep it up.

Just Cause 3 ran like a nightmare when I bought it, drove me so crazy I had to return it..
I'd probably download it just to fly around w/ a wingsuit again idk

Eww. This is why asking for more AAA games makes no sense.

I'll get Downwell though.

Errrr other than the threads being WAY more positive these last couple months with all the AAA games? The shift is pretty blatantly obvious. The change to more AAA games is awesome.

I'll give JC3 another go, I was overwhelmed by the size of the map and knowing that it was going to get very repetitive soon enough.

Great month. Already played JC3 but happy to jump back in.

I consider myself a pretty decent assassins creed fan (bought all of them day 1 since the first), yet somehow i have never even heard of Freedom Cry.

What the hell is Freedom Cry? Never heard of it until today.

It's a short sequel to ACIV where you play as the quartermaster (and broest of bros) from ACIV, Adewale, who is now captain of his own ship.
