PS Plus for February: Helldivers and Nom Nom Galaxy

Well, I mostly want it because it still looks amazing visually and to complete the KZ saga storywise. I played KZ2 & KZ3, so I need to finish the campaign for this one. Also, no offense, but I learnt to never fully trust GAF on opinions regarding games.

None taken - if you're keen then just buy it - it's bound to be dirt cheap now.
 
So, this is expected to NOT include the ridiculous amount of DLC Helldivers seems to have? I thought about buying it around Black Friday, but got Divinity of XB1 instead.

Is the game even... good without all the extra content? It seemed to run pretty deep.

I remember hearing about Nom Nom years ago at... what is it... Bit Summit? But it seemed to fall off the face of the earth since then, and I've never heard a peep about it since then... I always feel bad for games when they seem to disappear into the depths of the PSN store..
 

Glorious!

Look at my post in the last page. It doesn't feel right if I don't at least play the next installment to the Killzone franchise, which I love.

Javin, you're like me as one of the few weirdos on Gaf who likes the Killzone franchise.
It's worth a punt even if it's the weakest of KZ2 and KZ3.

The futuristic timeline of that universe and uneasy alliance between Helghast and ISA makes for some interesting (though undercooked) story stuff imo.

The visuals are incredible too, give it a go if you can find it second hand/cheap.
 
They were so good I haven't renewed my subscription for 4 or 5 months already.

It's ok to have terrible taste. Although there is no world where Knack is better than Magicka 2, Gauntlet, Grim Fandango, Broken Age, Super Meat Boy, Super Time Force Ultra, Grow Home, La Mulana. Knack is not even half as a good as any of those games, and hopefully it never shows up on Plus.
 
Helldivers is fun locally but after a while me and my friends hit an difficulty wall. We were only three players and I don't know if the game balances for that or assumes you have to be four players for the higher level planets.

Would have loved to have kept playing it but my friends got frustrated with the difficulty.

Never tried online.

Do we only get the basic game or do we get the expansion version? (only had basic)
 
Helldivers is awesome! Bought it on launch. This is great for those who did as this should boost the games population. I'll probably jump back in and play some then.

The DLC isn't necessary at all to enjoy Helldivers - it's great without it.

I wish, if only my country was more popular on gaming. It's so hard to even find second hand games in most stores here.

Haha, I honestly find the gunplay engaging enough to love the games. The story and characters are a bit underdeveloped, but I like them for what they are. Also, yeah, another reason I'm still interested is because of the visuals. Still one of the best looking games in the market two years on.
 
Good choice of games. I'm happy.
 
Excellent! Helldivers is top tier gaming, best of the best. It will be great to have a huge injection of new players in the fight for freedom. And I love PixelJunk so I'm looking forward to NomNom. Great month,, finally breaking the long chain of disappointing poo.
 
Yeah, looking at the positive feedback for Helldivers here, I think I'll try it out. But first, I'll watch some gameplay videos. No idea how the game even looks. :P
 
Is helldivers gonna come with the dlc do you think?
No. It will have the free expansions that add the most significant content (New enemies, bosses, planet types, mission types, and horde mode), but the paid DLC, which is weapons and air strikes and vehicles and such, will not be included.
 
Helldivers looks solid but it's just not my type of game. Nom Nom isn't really my cup of tea, either. I'm glad that others are psyched but the streak of not even downloading any of the offered PS+ games for me personally is now at 5 months. Although, to be fair, I would have jumped at Freedom Wars and King's Quest had I not already owned them.

I think at this point, I see the value of PS+ in the sale discounts. I play almost exclusively SP so I don't care about online play, and the monthly games are far more miss than hit with me. But the discounts more than pays for the subscription each year so I keep renewing.
 
Not really interested in either. Man, if SFV wasn't out soon I would probably just end my PS+ Subscription. Unfortunately that's not really an option.
