Never Alone is a great little game. Haven't heard of the other PS4 game.

Oh and Killzone Mercenary is fucking amazing. The best KZ game.

 

[Lalalandia]

Paid for Never Alone, delighted that more folks will see it. The platforming isn't perfect (quite far from it in some places) but as a documentary/game hybrid I found it fascinating and worthy of the EG 10/10. Like Valiant Hearts it blends learning and fun in a way that didn't make me hate either, I really hope that this becomes a genre.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

This is the first month where I think Games With Gold is actually better than PS Plus for me.

 

[RespectThySole]

I'll take Dishonored for a spin.

 

[Griss]

Good lord, do we always have to go through the "give me retail games" routine every month?

I'm delighted with this month, but if retail games are what people want they're entitled to express it here. So basically, yes.

 

[cr_blah_blah]

I do like some small quirky PSN games every now and then, but PS+ for PS4 has been crap ever since the release of the console.

I´m still waiting for Shadow Fall, Knack and some others. Those games are already catalog, no reason not to put one of those on PS+

I´ve played dozens of great titles from third parties on PS3, but now on PS4 i rarely download their free games.

Prejudice? Maybe, but it´s clear that PS+ was a lot better when they were trying to get their foot on the ground.

No it wasn't, look at that PS3 list for the first 2-2.5 years.

 

[AsfaeksBR]

WIll definately play Never Alone, and Killzone Mercenaries is a great addition for my Vita backlog. Now I only need a Vita...

 

[SxP]

Kinda disappointed with the PS4 titles. For anyone who hasn't played it yet, Killzone Mercenary is absolutely fantastic. I'll probably jump back into multiplayer with so many new people jumping in.

Yeah, I remember when they were first trying to get their foot on the ground and were giving me avatars, minis, and psp fighting games. PS+ has really gone downhill since then.

 

[ZOONAMI]

Swwweeeet. Almost bought Killzone so many times, but my memory card was too small. By the time I upgraded it didn't go on sale anymore!

...though my memory card is still too low on space to download it. At least I'll have it for whenever.

You won't have it whenever unless you download it. It will go back to full price if you don't download it during this month.

 

[meanspartan]

I know we arent allowed to say we prefer retail games over indies around here, but I want some damn retail games. It's been long enough now where something like Black Flag or Need for Speed should be on Ps4 Plus.

 

[AlexBasch]

> Dishonored gameplay video
> Shows Corvo killing everyone
> Stealthy

Cringed.

Anyway! Great addition with KZ:M, I bought it long ago, but it's an amazing game and I feel like going through it again.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Had to look up the ps4 games and this looks like a solid month. Tower of Guns looks like it could be the rogue-like to fill the void left by being done with Binding of Isaac that isn't a 2d sidescroller.

 

[RedNumberFive]

Killzone is an outstanding game. Hopefully this will revitalize online matchmaking.

 

[An-Det]

Happy to see Killzone this month, I've wanted to play it but never got around to it. Also Never Alone looks great.

 

[Griss]

You won't have it whenever unless you download it.

Incorrect, you just need to 'purchase' it, not download it. Once purchased a PS+ game can be downloaded or redownloaded at any time so long as you remain a member.

 

[Original Famous Ray]

Tower of Guns looks alright. Never Alone looks so pretty but the gameplay footage has me thinking of Limbo which I did not like.

Already finished Dishonored and I totally recommend it. Still waiting for a sequel!!!

Killzone looks very impressive for the Vita. Don't know anything about this Aaru game but the art looks nice.

 

[Majanew]

Yep. Indie games seem to get a pass because it's impossible for them to be mediocre because they're $10 indie games!

 

[xir]

what exactly is monster bag?

Tower of Guns looks like that FPS in Wreck it Ralph.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

This is actually one of the best months period, how do you dislike this?

Some people have bad taste. Just let them continue waiting for Knack.

 

[KojiKnight]

Incorrect, you just need to 'purchase' it, not download it. Once purchased a PS+ game can be downloaded or redownloaded at any time so long as you remain a member.

This is correct. (edit) Err Griss is correct to be clear.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I already own KZM on a cart but I'll still download it so I don't have to see that stupid processing cart thing pop up every time I turn my Vita on.

 

[dogmaan]

I love the occasional indie game, I'll definitely be getting Axiom Verge for example, but I do feel like PS+, especially on the PS4, has become a kind of indie welfare system.

 

[Night Angel]

Awesome! I never got around to playing KZM, so this is great.

 

[ItsTheNew]

Hell how about giving us some playstation now games thrown in? At least there would be a bigger selection and it would let ps4 owners who never had a ps3 play some older classics.

 

[Lalalandia]

You won't have it whenever unless you download it. It will go back to full price if you don't download it during this month.

You don't need to d/l it, just add it your cart and check it out. I know this works as I picked up a cheap PStv and was able to d/l ll my prior Vita games from PS+ (I don't own an actual Vita). You are correct about the time limit if you don't 'buy' while it's in PS+ the price retrns to normal.

 

[friskykillface]

killzone was an amazing game, sold it a while back but im ready B^)

 

[DrROBschiz]

Underwhelming for a PS4 owner

Thats ALWAYS gonna be the case for the LEAD system man

They need to MAKE money. They arent gonna give you Bloodborne for free until years later

There is a system for this man

 

[VanWinkle]

Pretty good month. Not spectacular, but I've wanted to play Never Alone, and Tower of Guns looks cool.

 

[Fbh]

Considering it works like crap for a lot of people (specially if you don't live in the US and don't have super high speed internet) I don't think that would be a good idea

 

[Fallout-with-swords]

Was initially disappointed since I didn't recognize any of the PS4 games but they all look really cool, pretty excited to check them out.

 

[ironcreed]

Nothing for me. Plus has just been utterly underwhelming for me on PS4. I am probably going to just let it expire come June, unless it picks up. I rarely play games online there anyway, with the exception of Bloodborne.

 

[xxracerxx]

What does this even mean?

 

[Kenzodielocke]

How is the performance on PS3 for Dishonored?

 

[QuantumZebra]

YAAAASSS was about to buy Killzone, good job Sony!

 

[cormack12]

Gutted, bought Never Alone last month. Really good game though for those who get it for free this month!

 

[ItsTheNew]

Considering it works like crap for a lot of people (specially if you don't live in the US and don't have super high speed internet) I don't think that would be a good idea

Eh, downloading multi gig games for those very same people probably isn't great either, but should that get in the way for a better value?

 

[Linkark07]

Killzone Mercenary. And just when I got my 64gb memory card.

Thanks Sony. My favorite month this year so far.

 

[kiguel182]

Never Alone is a great offering. Wanted to buy it on the last sale but held off. Hopefullly I'll find the time to play it!

I have no idea what the other two PS4 games are but they do look interesting.

 

[farisr]

Never Alone. Nice.

 

[Riesenfass]

Welp, another month with nothing that interests me.

It's been a few months since I've seen something I'm personally interested in - I might reconsider renewing my subscription. Now that my PS3 died, I'm PS4 only and I'm not getting what I want.

 

[lil]

Ahhh I'm getting PS+ in April and I've so wanted to play Never Alone!

 

[GenericUser]

I swear, the next time I hear the words "puzzle platformer" in a ps+ game announcement ...

 

[SliceSabre]

Never Alone and Killzone make April worth it for me!

 

[R1CHO]

It's been a year and half (more or less) since lauch, it's time already for some retail titles on ps+ for ps4.

PS: For example Killzone SF is only two months "newer" than Killzone Mercenary.

 

[Derpyduck]

As a PS4-only owner, this month stinks for me. But with MK and DS2 coming out in April, as well as Borderlands from March, it's not like I'll be hurting for games to play.

 

[meanspartan]

Yep. Indie games seem to get a pass because it's impossible for them to be mediocre because they're $10 indie games!

They can be great! I don't mind having indie games, but part of the reason I was told not to be mad when Sony made Plus mandatory for online play was because of what a great value Plus is, given all the free AAA on Ps3 Plus. An indie every month is fine, as long as we also get a AAA every month alongside it.

It's a fucking bait and switch. Make Plus awesome on Ps3, then once Plus is mandatory, stuff it with mostly cheaper to get indies. Oh and if anyone calls you out for it, people will criticize that person for "hating indies", or "is the game not fun if it was never sold at Wal Mart HURRR"

It's just not a great value to me if Plus is mostly going to be games I can get on Steam sale for next to nothing anyway. I was hoping for year-old AAA games. I didn't complain through most of 2014 because I understood that they couldn't give away brand new big budget titles. But now that the console is well over a year old, it's time damn it.

 

[poopninjamvc3mk]

Finally KZ:M. Game never goes on sale this is pretty nice. Better month for Vita than the last few. Might have to renew my PS+ when it expires soon. Also Dishonered is nice

 

[BronsonLee]

I was seconds away from buying KZM a few days ago.

Praise jebus

WAIT, NEVER ALONE TOO?! Best month

 

[RoadHazard]

That's very meh for me. Oh well, still haven't even played the March games, so I've got stuff to keep me occupied.
