Woops, my bad then! The day one games must not have interested me so I assumed they were older releases.
I remember being ecstatic at getting OlliOlli 2 for "free" earlier this year though!

Plus a 9/10 Steam score.
Fair enough.

Other than Dragon Age: Origins, this is two back-to-back disappointing months. I didn't even download any of last months games.

Wasn't the PS3 version's framerate atrocious though?

...and the future refused to change.
I keep hoping that Sony will convince me to want to spend $50 to renew come March, but that hope has been ebbing for months now.
Those PS3 offerings are a sneaky way of saying, "It's time to upgrade, you lazy bastards!"

It wouldnt lock the fandango theme if you get it via PSN+? or the theme was just for preorder

Yeah it seems well recieved but it looks like one of those puzzle/platformer adventure games I played dozens of already. Not really exciting imo :/ I'll give it a try though
Warfighter I've nearly bought a few times for 5 bucks, so that one's okay with me. But otherwise, as someone who almost always defends the list every month since they're "free", ouch. This is a rotten month (as someone who owns Dragon Age and Grim Fandango, at least). Give us LittleBigPlanet Vita or something, there are still major games to give out on the handheld.
At least they didn't pull an invizimals and give us the psp version of the patton game

Already had grim fandango so that doesn't do much for me but it's cool other people can play it though it's a really great game.

I'd take some PSP games if this is what they have left for Vita PS+.
PSP has lots of great games that people have probably forgot existed.
Edit. Wait. Legends of War IS a psp game? LOL. Bloody hell Sony. Thats the saddest shit

You're in luck! Patton is a PSP game after all!

It's a pretty fun puzzle/platformer. A cool look and theme, plus a smart difficulty curve that continues to introduce new mechanics and keeps you using the rest. It's very clearly made by a super small team by themselves, but I really enjoyed it. They did a lot with a little.
I did play it on Vita too. Tried it before bed about 6 months ago and ended up playing only that for a week.

I always heard that Grim Fandango was one of the finest Lucasarts PC adventure games. I'll take that. No 2D platformers on PS4 this month, rejoice!
Edit: It's true that PS+ is garbage now though. That's what happens when they get you to pay for multiplayer.

Why? Those are all games that really aren't that good. Why folks prefer AAA games despite how good they are rather than a generally good game is beyond me.

Its sad to see how Plus has changed. I used to have Plus for the awesome offerings. Now I rarely even download the free games but have to have Plus for Multiplayer. That's the gaming business, though. I love indies so I'm not even talking about just wanting AAA titles. Terraria PS4 Edition would have been nice.

I don't want free games at all. I just buy what I want anyway. I only want multiplayer so I can play online sometimes.
PS+ should be tiered, so people who want free games can pay $50 and I can pay the $10 for something that should be free anyway. Sadly, there's no incentive for them to not make me pay $50 for stuff I don't want, though.

PS+ for PS4 has been a total scam compared to PS3. Total waste of money so far. They're back peddaling to make us pay for online with almost zilch in return. Rocket League was a fluke.
They haven't so much as put their own launch AAA games up that are dead.

Goddamn, if it weren't for online I'd have unsubbed months ago and wouldn't have missed out.
Remember when we had Dragon's Dogma, Borderlands 2, or even Dust: An Elysian Tail and Valiant Hearts? Sigh.
I don't want more remastered p-a-c adventure games, but that doesn't mean I want Ubi shit either. The last + game I played was Styx and that's a July offering.
I guess I still haven't tried Gauntlet or Magicka 2 though, those might be fun...

Well they could have made us pay for online and give us nothing in return. That sounds a tad worse than it is now.

Pumped about Hardware Rivals. I played a bunch of it in the beta, it was pretty fun.
Great weapons and I love the vehicle handling. Games not going to win any critical awards or anything but it's got hours of multiplayer car pew pew fun to be had. Map design was pretty cool in the beta ... On one map there is this big temple pyramid with a sniper weapon at the top, You get your car parked up there and can take out enemy players. In Free for all it's pretty scary when every car on the map starts climbing the pyramid determined to kill you lol
All maps also have a "everyone dies" event that can be triggered giving you about 15 seconds to make it to a designated safe area on the map. Love the panic feeling of burning metal to try to make it to safety while at the same time somebody behind you is opening fire on you while ALSO burning metal to try to make it to the safe location.
As you play you learn quickly how to rotate your turret while driving at the same time. I became the king of driving forward while shooting backwards, for example.
I think that Hardware Rivals will surprise you guys, I only got a week in before the beta ended but I REALLY liked the game. Definitely worth the price of "free".

The only concern is the Patton game, it is not available in Australia or New Zealand, nor a few other stores I would imagine, so wonder if we will get a replacement...
Or will the holiday season time mean they are a touch more lax in offering alternates....
I have nothing against the lineup, there are a few titles I don't have and would end up playing.

A scam implies that you are being decieved, rather than just continually paying money for something you don't like.
