u keep discounted gamesu lose access to all the free ones once you discontinue use.

and do you get good freebies?
― zero dark (s1ocki), Tuesday, 29 January 2013 15:05 (eleven years ago) link
Mostly A list (but not usually triple A) stuff from maybe 9 to 12 months ago? Sometimes longer. So yeah, pretty good. Recently in the UK we've had the likes of Arkham City, Bulletstorm, Crysis 2, Red Dead Redemption, Borderlands 1.
Basically thanks to PS+, my massive Steam backlog, and my increasingly limited gaming time, I'm planning to buy NO NEW RELEASES for the whole of 2013. We'll have to see how that goes though, resisting GTAV is going to be a a struggle for sure.

American ps+ games (and this is pretty universally agreed upon) are not as good as UK. Still worth it honestly.

when i heard about the Sigma for Vita I was actually like "phew!" since i just bought it used for PS3
― Nhex, Tuesday, 29 January 2013 17:57 (eleven years ago) link
this is gonna sound kinda weird but... how do i buy it??
― zero dark (s1ocki), Tuesday, 29 January 2013 22:46 (eleven years ago) link
PS+? from the PSN store on your Vita, PS3 or the new webstore https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.comthink they are doing 15 months for price of 12 in US atm

i tried looking for it on the PSN store on my PS3 and i couldnt find it
― zero dark (s1ocki), Tuesday, 29 January 2013 22:55 (eleven years ago) link
that's odd, there's usually enormous banners for it! says Instant Game Collection in big letters

Ni No Kuni is absolutely fucking gorgeous! also very easy.
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Sunday, 3 February 2013 17:51 (eleven years ago) link
what i've been hearing is that it's very nice, very pretty but ultimately so-so game
― Nhex, Sunday, 3 February 2013 17:55 (eleven years ago) link
yeh, about 5 hours in and it feels like that's the way it's heading - beautiful, well made, but a JRPG for beginners. which is ok. i really want a DQ that looks like this, and Level-5 developed VIII and IX, so ...

― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Friday, 22 February 2013 14:22 (eleven years ago) link
Oh man, this is going to be the first time I've ever played a Dead Or Alive game.

the sad thing about DoA back in the day was that it was a decent fighting game that was completely overshadowed by the wholly unnecessary boob physics

hmmmmmmm... i don't know about that
― Nhex, Friday, 22 February 2013 16:40 (eleven years ago) link
boob physics never WHOLLY unnecessary imo u sexist
― Even by Zales standards, that's sad. (forksclovetofu), Friday, 22 February 2013 16:40 (eleven years ago) link
they are unnecessary when the boobs start to resemble a weird hybrid of water and JELL-O
― This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Friday, 22 February 2013 16:44 (eleven years ago) link
that is when they are MOST necessary, reclaim the boob physics for science
― Even by Zales standards, that's sad. (forksclovetofu), Friday, 22 February 2013 16:47 (eleven years ago) link
but i appreciate your proper capitalization brand usage of JELL-OKudos™

Actually I was implying that DoA was never a decent game ;)
PSN store is doing a "Spend $50, get $10 back" deal from tonight through to the end of March
Nice deal to stack with the "Buy 12 months of PS+, get 3 months free" deal which runs through March 4th
You need an extra cent to get to $50, but since we'll probably see the Gamer's Choice deals run, I'm sure I'll pick up something like Journey, Persona, Skullgirls, etc. depending on what games win
― Nhex, Tuesday, 26 February 2013 17:43 (eleven years ago) link
i think i am getting myself one of these - so playstation plus gets you random free games every month? and i can keep them?
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 27 February 2013 20:57 (eleven years ago) link
as long as you pay the yearly fee yesyou'll want to get a 500 gig/terabyte drive tho
― forks is lucky he didn't get stabbed over a marilyn monroe cd (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 27 February 2013 21:03 (eleven years ago) link
you keep them as long as you maintain your PS+ sub, or if you drop and resubscribe
note that any games you actually buy on sale with your PS+ discount are kept regardless
the deals are up - I'll grab Journey this time, and maybe Sound Shapes? I didn't even realize there was a PS3 version
