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

is there a good place to track current/upcoming ps+ deals? also does anyone know if the free plants vs zombies on ps+ right now is the vita or ps3 version? not that i am sure i want it or care, just curious
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Monday, 4 March 2013 18:47 (eleven years ago) link
I believe it is VITA
― my super interesting Kant story (DJP), Monday, 4 March 2013 18:49 (eleven years ago) link
there's a good PSN weekly deal thread on cheapassgamer, or you could subscribe directly to the PS blog at sony's sitehttp://blog.us.playstation.com/

xp I know, right? I had the exact same feeling, haha
― Nhex, Monday, 4 March 2013 20:54 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, Spec Ops, The Cave, and Joe Danger 2(!) definitely nice
― Nhex, Monday, 4 March 2013 20:55 (eleven years ago) link
ok so picked up the original motorstorm for like $2 (i think it might turn out awesome but it handles kinda weird) resistance: fall of man for $2 (i think i hate this and will return it, even for $2) and resistance 2 (have not played, will prob return thx to resistance one feelings)
where do i go from here wrt ps3 exclusives? is the uncharted stuff actually good or just critic jerkoff city? anybody got a box of dusty old games they want to sell me? HALP
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:02 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeah and duh i have ratchet and clank all 4 one, infamous 2, arcade super street fighter, vanquish, and little big planet 2 thx to ps+ freebie.

WIPEOUT HD

DELETE EVERY OTHER GAME ON YR HARD DRIVE UNTIL YOU PLAY WIPEOUT HD
― "Bellini." (DJP), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:04 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeah, i forgot that one. should i wait around and see if it goes ps+ at some point? still not entirely sure how that works or what the life-cycle is for games showing up there.
xp hahaha i think you feel strongly abt this somehow
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:04 (eleven years ago) link
can i just success getting motorstorm apocalypse and playing it on your buddy's huge screen via a 1080p 3D projector while massively lifted, because, that, uh, worked for a friend of mine.
― zero dark (s1ocki), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:05 (eleven years ago) link
btw when I come to MN I can bring Rocksmith with me so you can see if you like it
― "Bellini." (DJP), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:07 (eleven years ago) link
are motorstorm apocalypse or motorstorm pacific rift big step ups from the original? also is twisted metal any good or did they fuck that one up
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:10 (eleven years ago) link
btw I am a terrible person to ask about most PS exclusives because the vast majority of them can suck a nut IMO
for example, Infamous is a total dick
― "Bellini." (DJP), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:13 (eleven years ago) link
im still early in, but so far i dont dig the controls much in infamous 2 - i am going to have to remap a lot of controls on games (where possible) because put the aim and shoot triggers on l1/r1 instead of l2/r2 is just super stupid to me.
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:16 (eleven years ago) link
big fat xbox hands crush puny controllar may be a contributing factor here
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:17 (eleven years ago) link
or maybe Infamous as a game franchise is a giant shitstain, signed A Dude Who Is Physically Incapable of Aiming
― "Bellini." (DJP), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:18 (eleven years ago) link
motorstorm apocalypse is wonderful imo
― pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:19 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeah that would not help, the aiming is fairly finicky as far as i can tell.
― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:19 (eleven years ago) link
I realized I was not going to be capable of playing Infamous when I died repeatedly during the first "mission" after the tutorial, where 5 guys slowly walked towards me in the middle of a park and I couldn't kill ANY of them
― "Bellini." (DJP), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:21 (eleven years ago) link
uncharted 2 is really good; uncharted 3 is too much of an interactive movie not enough of a game imo
― pun lovin criminal (polyphonic), Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:21 (eleven years ago) link
GET: Orange Box, Demon/Dark Souls, Touch my Katamari (if you can get it cheap and you can)

― O_o-O_O-o_O (jjjusten)
Nah - they are kind of the same. The most different is the third one because the tracks have elements that change / destruct each time you race through it, plus it has a horned in story mode. Handling and crashing is the same throughout all three, pretty much. Pacific Rift has some good tracks. The bummer is that the first two games have lost their online servers & really half of those games was the multiplayer - single player is kind of boring after not too long (not enough tracks or variety or something).
The Motorstorm RC game is my favorite though (and it doesn't have online except for leaderboards).
― JCL, Wednesday, 6 March 2013 19:31 (eleven years ago) link
i'd definitely like to hear some more PS3-exclusive recs too. Yakuza games? White Knight Chronicles or other RPGs? PSN stuff?
