PS+ is pretty crazy. Do they always give out this many games for free? Rushed to start my 30-day trial so I could grab KOF XIII, Dungeon Defenders, PayDay, Resident Evil 5 Gold, Double Dragon Neon, Bloodrayne... I didn't even pick up some of the others they were offering
― Nhex, Friday, 30 November 2012 14:44 (eleven years ago) link
yeah, it's a good bargain. though at least one week a month they have virtually nothing. that's this week.

Arkham City, Vanquish and Limbo are the new PS+ freebs in the UK this month. Two of those three are definitely great, Vanquish might be ok too.
But that means today is the last chance to grab Crysis 2, Scott Pilgrim, Double Dragon Neon.

Double Dragon Neon is so, so stupid, but I kinda love it?

EU peeps : Tokyo Jungle is £5.19/€6.49 (£4.67/€5.84 for PS+) for next couple of days

SO worth it

Did we have some kind of trash/guilty pleasures thread? 'Cuz Double Dragon Neon definitely is my Guilty Pleasure of The Year. Tries as hard as it can to be incredibly stupid and succeeds wonderfully. The actual game, eh, it's OK. Being such a huge NES Double Dragon fan back in the day helps, but wow, the ending song belongs in the pantheon with "Still Alive" and the God Hand ending:

I almost xposted this to the Xbox thread to make sure jjjusten read this. But then again, you probably don't need to play the game now that you've seen that. But man! This is gonna make my C&P just for taking the original DD theme and turning it into a cheesy karaoke rock opera.

I've been playing some Motorstorm RC. The game is tremendously tough, but pretty fun. I wish it had online multiplayer.

Might get Journey on sale today, but not sure if I should wait for a sale on the disc version. Tokyo Jungle on sale tomorrow; do I hate myself enough to buy it?Skullgirls too.

13 games on sale tomorrow on PSN:http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/01/21/psns-13-for-13-begins-tomorrow-top-games-movies-great-prices/
Really nice PS+ prices. Anyone rep for Unfinished Swan, LBP Karting, Hot Shots Golf, or House of the Dead OVERKILL?
― Nhex, Monday, 21 January 2013 16:25 (eleven years ago) link
Hot Shots Golf is great. If you've never played any of the previous Hot Shot games, it's a no brainer at that price. If you've played the other Hot Shot games before (or classic Mario Golf games), it's pretty much just more of the same, except with better graphics, a new shot type (though classic is still best) and some online modes... so it depends if you feel like playing more of that.
― JCL, Monday, 21 January 2013 17:21 (eleven years ago) link
Hot Shots Golf is mechanically a pretty good golf game and has a sort of RPG mode to work through, i find the look of it pretty ugly though, those big bobbly heads ugh :(played HOTD Overkill on Wii and its a good lightgun game esp local co-op, obv in thrall of Tarantino/70s exploitation thing but the script is quite funny in places - i imagine it would be pretty unplayable unless you have the Move controller though
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 21 January 2013 17:30 (eleven years ago) link
i haven't played Mario Golf since the Gamecube... i'm thinking about iti do have the Move, but i guess I'd have to shell out for a second controller to do co-op. for $5, though, that sounds like fun
― Nhex, Monday, 21 January 2013 17:35 (eleven years ago) link
oh yeh EU PSN is having a Final Fantasy sale starting Wednesday, pretty much everything half price. anyone want to rep for Final Fantasy Tactics: War of Lions?
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 21 January 2013 17:35 (eleven years ago) link
that's the remake of the original FFT for PS1, right? all-time classic in the genre
― Nhex, Monday, 21 January 2013 17:50 (eleven years ago) link
unfinished swan demo was great funFFTactics War of the Lions is one of my five favorite all time games. Buy it. Now.

ok on Wednesday then! with a new Picross game on Thursday as well this is a great week for handheld digital downloads.
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 21 January 2013 21:37 (eleven years ago) link
one note tho': FFTactics is free with PS+ so maybe worth just getting that instead?
― an old penis drawing is now "new and notable" (forksclovetofu), Monday, 21 January 2013 22:18 (eleven years ago) link
only free in US, EU blog say its not getting added anytime soon

ah, my apologies

Cool, so those PS+ games I queue up every month but never get around to installing or playing, now I can queue them up without even plugging in the PS3!

Ace, Quantum Conundrum is meant to be a fun time too, it's by the Portal people isn't it?
Hey I've got a PS+ question - I don't have a vita. But the PSN store seems to let me add the vita games under PS+ to my basket and check them out. Is that going to be enough for me to have them all still be available if I do pick up a vita in the future? Or do I need to have initiated a download to an actual console too?
― JimD, Monday, 28 January 2013 17:20 (eleven years ago) link
once you've checked them out they will always be accessible via yr download history, no need to download. i just go to the webstore (now available in US) and "buy" everything PS+ when it comes available, much quicker than using the PS3.
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Monday, 28 January 2013 17:26 (eleven years ago) link
That's great!
― JimD, Monday, 28 January 2013 17:34 (eleven years ago) link
i played the first hour of QC, it's OK so far but aside from the nice surprise of having Q from Star Trek narrate the game, there's nothing particularly wowing
xp yeah, i'm downloading all those Vita games in the unlikelihood that i'll pick one up at some point
― Nhex, Monday, 28 January 2013 23:29 (eleven years ago) link
US PS+ this week is ninja gaiden sigma... for vita? ugh.
