Still not free... lol. He even said "Not trying to be pedantic."
They should just call it subscription gaming to make it unambiguous, but hey they won't because they want you thinking you're getting free games which you're not.

It would be like if ntflx added 2 monthly games for you to play now and the sub price stayed the same. The service youre pating for is the movies and shows on demand, the 2 random games are a ”free" add in bonus... they didnt have to start including games.
The 2 free games have been part of the service now thouggh for so long and they advertise it as such that its just an expected inclusion of the service.
pretty much its clever marketing lingo

Because for PS+ subscribers, these games will be free at checkout for the month.
I get where you're coming from but IMO it's a silly thing to get hung up on.

It's usually fuel used in fanboy/console warz born from when PS+ began and Xbox had no alternative.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but "free games" were always part of PS Plus. It's online gaming that was added later with the PS4 release.

come on, what a bunch of shit for the ps3. Last month we had that xblaze code embryo shit that nobody cared about, the previous month a game about monster trucks. This month we have Sacred 3, a game nobody played despite being in every humble bundle/holiday discount/sales ever.
What does it take sony to give us something good? I remember the good old days of infamous 2, demon's souls, street fighter 4, king of fighters 13, tomb raider 2013, and it's been almost 2 or 3 years of nothing but crap.

IIRC in the EU you're not allowed to mark anything as "free" if you still have a purchase tied to it. So you can't do crap like here in the US with a BOGO sale, it has to be worded as like 2 for the price of one or Buy one get another 100% off or just with it or whatever the hell.
So like when you go to the PS Store for the plus games it'll say 100% off, because you're paying for the sub.

I'm thinking the mention of it being cross-buy was a mistake, because neither game page on the store even mentions it. I wouldn't doubt ti being cross-save, maybe, but even that isn't mentioned.
The US blog post when the game was releasing doesn't make mention, either:
https://blog.us.playstation.com/201...y-happiness-hits-ps4-ps-vita-on-september-13/
Plus each version got a physical release (complete with CE/LE!) which almost never has cross-buy unless they include a code for whichever version is not being bought physically (Sly Cooper Collection, for example).

It's not even showing up in the PS3 list where I usually download the vita games since my memory card is always full... Had to search for it...

Can someone help me out? I've been playing Deus Ex for some hour now and my skill tree was reset (won't go into details).
Now I have no Idea of how to assign the augs to my D-pad. I figured out that after actually using an upgraded aug I was able to assign it, is this the way it should be done?

I checked it on PS4 and lo and behold it's free now.
Oh totally, but I still want to try it. I enjoyed Sacred 2.
They get reset as part of the story don't they. From memory I think you pretty much start off with nothing then have to unlock them before assigning them.

Yes they do, but i'm investing all these points in the trees and I still can't use 'em, this is the only part of the game which kind of confuses me T_T

I did like the Sacred 2 them song with the in-game rendition.

No, it also gives a recap of the previous game as well at the start.

Glad I missed the pedantic 'not really free' debate this time around. The free games are alright this month. I already own Dues Ex but whatever, I've got probably hundreds of free ps+ games I haven't even played yet collected up, let alone my actual paid for backlog.

Good news Europe Plus people...Psycho-Pass for PS4 is now showing up as free for me in the Store.

I bought it on release and really enjoyed it, but I find Telltale games are very YMMV amongst gamers.
