I wanted to play both of those PS4 games, so I'm okay with this.

 

[tilomite]

First Light is a great addition for me, glad I had the willpower to hold off buying the game.

 

[Koralsky]

Good month for all my PS platforms - thanks, Sony.

 

[ILoveBish]

Woah dave looks hysterically bad. I'll try it anyway but damn.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

I'll definitly be looking forward to the ps4 games.

It's times like these when I'm really glad I'm a ps+ member.

 

[An-Det]

I've been looking forward to First Light, I can't wait to play that. The Swapper is excellent, more people need to play that, and Prototype 2 is great. Apparently Woah Dave! is from the BIT.TRIP guys, so I'll give that a shot. Decent month.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Yeah, we got a 4 year old game and a collection of even older games. At this point, I legit feel like taking out the PS3, and, adding an extra PS4 game would be more beneficial.

Of course there's no guarantee they would do that, but, they're not just going to take out the PS3 part of the deal without an incentive.

And what about the Millions of ps3 owners who have not upgraded? WTF?

By no stretch of the imagination is this even remotely a bad month. You are expecting way too much of this service if you think otherwise.

 

[JawzPause]

Best month in a while

 

[Goldrusher]

DuckTales is a pleasant surprise.

 

[MUnited83]

ahhh but this is europe ps+

hopefully NA ps+ gets killzone shadow fall mp instead

Not happening.

 

[Carl]

2 great months in a row

 

[danowat]

I was looking at buying the swapper yesterday, glad I held off!

 

[Neuromancer]

The Swapper and Infamous FL are both fantastic.

 

[Artex]

I almost bought The Swapper for Vita before my last flight. I also didn't know Duke Nukem 3D was available for Vita. That...is awesome.

 

[SliceSabre]

Another awful month.

Glad I saw this so I can not renew.

 

[quesalupa]

Another great month.

I will definitely renew.

 

[E the Shaggy]

Ducktales and Infamous? Hell yeah.

 

[RK128]

If the rumor is true, then the new year is kicking off great . Ducktails Remastered is a wonderful platformer and I've heard great things about Prototype 2. Vita owners getting Duke Nukem for free is amazing too ! Looking forward to next week if this is true .

 

[ComputerMKII]

Weren't those games announced like one month ago?

 

[ThatStupidLion]

PS+: the gift that keeps on giving.

 

[Celegus]

Not much for me, but I'm currently drowning in games so I can safely skip another month of PS+ games. I'll try Infamous, but didn't care for the first two games in the series so I don't have high hopes.

Swapper is fantastic, be sure to check that out if you haven't yet.

 

[dugdug]

Maybe you're right, but, I've been subbed since the service launched originally, and, I remember getting much better games than fucking Prototype 2.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Duke,Ducktales, and Prototype 2...pretty decent month.

Only beat the first Prototype so this should be fun even if it is more of the same

 

[CHC]

Duke Nukem 3D & Woah Dave (Vita)

Sony right now:

 

[boredandlazy]

Duck Tales?

Woo-oo!

I got it.

Anyway hopefully this is accurate and is the same for EU/AUS since I was planning on getting Duke 3D anyway.

Edkt: Oh, this is UK/EU/AUS. Awesome.
Screw you people who say the Vita lineup sucks. It has the Duke.

 

[Eyothrie]

What exclusive PS3 games are left at this point? Beyond, KH HD (never gonna happen)... and? I'm just wondering what I should be looking forward to for PS3 PS Plus.

Beyond isn't even on PSN as a download

 

[AmuroChan]

Basically, they've barely put any exclusives in the IGC outside of the LBP games.

These are the exclusives off the top of my head that were free with PS+ at some point. The ones in Bold are first party exclusives.


Uncharted: Golden Abyss
Uncharted 3
Unit 13
Dragon's Crown
Wipeout HD
Wipeout 2048
Dead Nation
Resogun
Infamous 2
Rachet & Clank: All 4 One
Demon's Souls
Starhawk
Ico
Shadow of the Colossus
Puppeteer
Sly: Thieves In Time
PS All-Stars Battle Royale
Gravity Rush
Disgaea 3
Catherine
Modnation Racers
Soul Sacrifice

 

[Mupod]

Is first light okay to play before second son? If I like it I figure I could get the retail game since it's cheap now.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Yeah a bunch of minis and PSone games are so much better...*rolls eyes*

What a narrow viewpoint. There are millions of PS3 players out there that Sony wants to either keep on Plus or incentivize to get Plus (and remember it's not necessary for online MP on PS3 so the igc is all they really have there). Why in the world would they dump that?

Anyway is Duke3D playable on PS3 as well it is that vita only?

It's coming out on both but I haven't heard anything about it being cross-buy...

 

[Hubb]

Looking forward to Last Light. I should have the base game beat by this weekend and unless the game takes a huge quality dive towards the end, I'll jump right into Last Light.

 

[Eggbok]

First Light takes place before Second Son. It actually ends where Second Son starts.

Get out of this thread with your facts and your data. The general response to PS+ titles is generally disdain when the titles aren't exactly what people want every single time. This inevitably gets translated into "There's never anything good here ever." It's a fruitless endeavor to even try to combat that mentality.

 

[sturgboski]

Bummer of a month for me as I own all but the two Vita games and I'm not that excited about either of those. Can't win them all I guess...

Edit: the PS4 and PS3 games though are pretty fantastic, especially the PS4 games. Last Light is awesome.

 

[Kasper]

Fucking hell, I just got Ducktales for Christmas.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

If you don't want to hate life, play ducktales on easy. You'll thank me later.

 

[RK128]

Wow, I'm surprised that many are upset with this line up . Sure, the Vita isn't getting new retail games like SAO: Hallow Fragment, Killzone Mercenary and Tearaway, but you are still getting one damn good shooter (heard nothing about the second game :l). The PS3 is the real winner of the month, as you are not only getting Ducktails Remastered but also a fun abet flawed open world game where you can destroy everything.

If anyone played that PS2/GC/XB Hulk game the Prototype guys worked on, you can see how much fun their games can be .

I get it, Sony 'should' be offering retail games every single month....but they can't do that with the Vita, as then they will completely run out of games to put on the service for Vita . I also understand that indie games are not everyone cups of tea but you shouldn't dismiss them as they are nothing X(; give them a chance before you ignore them at least :l.

Sorry, but I see that attitude all the time whenever PS+ is brought up, so I had to state my thoughts on the matter.

Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful new year and that we get a great year in gaming in 2015 !

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I'm pretty happy with the PS4 titles. I've been holding off on those two until they were cheap or free. It's perfect for me!

 

[JayEH]

I like Prototype a lot. Come at me.

 

[netguy503]

I don't hate the games announced this month but two "Infamous" style games in one month (First Light, Prototype 2) is a bit much, no? Seems like a waste of a slot to me.

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

Infamous and Prototype have never been similar and the only people who tried to make those comparisons post launch were trying to craft some kind of fanboy narrative.

Put another way, they are only similar in the sense you have superhero powers in a open world. Which would also include crackdown, saints row and the spiderman games.

Infamous first light and Prototype 2 are even more far removed from each other.

 

[RK128]

Well, it seems that Sony doesn't want to put Second Son on Plus yet, so they are using First Light as an advertisement for Second Son; people play First Light for free to get a taste of what Second Son is like and if they want more, they buy the full game.

I suppose that is why Prototype 2 is on Plus in January too; to make up for First Light not being a 'full' game. Granted, if First Light is anything like Festival of Blood, then it should have a ton of content, but point still stands .

There are enough differences between the two games to justify both of them being on Plus at the very least .

 

[Orniletter]

Ok selection for PS3 and 4 but terrible Vita games.

 

[friskykillface]

DUKE NUKEM, haha i loved that game on N64, do it sony


i wish ducktales was on PS4 :/ i want to play it

 

[matrixman92]

wish I didnt renew last night, knew I should have waited

 

[John Bender]

Duck Tales and First Light = ^_^

 

[Producer]

the hell is Woah Dave

another shovelware indie game for vita

 

[amar212]

Jesus, just take PS3 out of Plus, already.

Are you allright?
