PS + is the greatest service everrrrr. Remember Me should be fun!

come_bom3843d ago (Edited 3843d ago )

Seriously ... Microsoft has to improve their XBLA Gold service to compete with PSN+. I honestly don't see the point to pay for XBLA Gold, simply to play multiplayer. Microsoft should really follow Sony with their online payed service.

pyramidshead3843d ago

I can see it happening and they will adapt for sure. No longer will they offer 8yr old games, but 7yr old games!

mattdillahunty3843d ago

did they just call Metal Gear Rising a masterpiece?

lol...

PS+ is awesome and all, but calm the hell down with the hyperboles.

abzdine3842d ago

PS+ puts everything else to shame.
MGSR and Remember Me? dammnnn!

Gazondaily3842d ago

Yeah, Xbox Live will look like more of a joke when the PS4 releases when it will have all the chat functionality and more.

ZodTheRipper3842d ago

So it really was the right decision to wait with MGS:Rising :D
I'm going into my third year with PS+ and it's still as awesome as ever.

I also didn't try out Remember Me yet but I'm much more looking forward to playing Rising.

gaffyh3842d ago

@matt - MGR is actually quite good for what it is, the only thing I don't like about it is the Metal Gear in it's name, because it's not a Metal Gear, at all. They say you can sneak through the game, but you really can't, is almost impossible.

I forgot about Remember Me ;), so that's enough for me.

Eonjay3842d ago

I need a new hard drive, NOW!
Holy Hell, it keeps getting better and better! This is what I expect from an online subscription.

NeMo_HeauxZ3842d ago

Exactly why Im switching. I cant for my Playstation!

FamilyGuy3842d ago

WTF Remember Me and MetalGear Rising! I need to get a EU account, they're getting some ridiculously new-ish games.

Why is XBLG even a comparison anymore, a better challenger would be comparing different regions on PS+ with each other, MS isn't in the running.

HiddenMission3842d ago

@mattdillahunty

Actually to hack n slash gamers it could be a master piece and guess what I for one played it around 15 times straight through.

Stop being salty because MS doesn't give out free newer titles...instead you games from like 2008.

Yeah your bitter much.

SegaSaturn6693842d ago

Metal Gear Rising was phenomenal. It's more accessible than stealthy MGS games and I think it's a better choice to initiate a newcomer with the series.

Thomaticus3842d ago

I think Microsoft will improve their service, because now there is competition. PS Plus is a true competitive service for Xbox Live, so I think they will get their Live service up to par. The issue is before is, there was PSN / PS Plus wasn't considered as competition, and thus MS didn't need to match it's services. The bottom line here is... competition between companies is good. Without competition companies get stagnant, and don't produce good deals. That's why it's important for both MS and Sony to do well so we get the best products and services

Not just mp
Netflix also.../s

Should have known this was EU.

guitarded773843d ago

Damn straight... I hope the US gets MGR and Remember Me too. Great month for the EU PS+.

showtimefolks3842d ago

plus puts all services to shame lol

vigilante_man3842d ago (Edited 3842d ago )

The first year of PS+ was a bit dodgy. I only joined once the IGC came about. There never has, and maybe never will be, a better gaming subscription than this!

If I had a 360 I would be screaming from the roof tops for Microsoft to up their game. MS played it clever. To do anything you need Live Gold.

I defy just 1 person of sound mind who pays for Live Gold to actually say that Sony are not giving their customers value for money with PS+. I only hope for all gamers that MS can follow suit soon.

a_squirrel3841d ago (Edited 3841d ago )

How was the first year a bit dodgy? That's like saying the service at McDonalds was a bit dodgy but only because there was an attempted armed robbery this one time that shut it down for a while.

Soldierone3842d ago

Remember Me was friggin awesome, I still have it. It has its glitches and clunky areas, but the story is so awesome.

Noctis3842d ago

I love how when I see good stuff coming out for PS + I always think to myself: "nah, this is too good for the US". and sure enough, too good for the US.

DarkLordMalik3843d ago

Metal Gear Rising..... HOLY SHIT!!!!! This alone deserves a yearly subscription. I am glad i have both USA and EU PS+ so that i can enjoy freebies from both regions.

blackblades3842d ago

Wow! so you paying $100 a year.

Cernunnos3842d ago

For a total of 8 dollars per month!!! So expensive...

Irishguy953843d ago

****ing Yes. Month after month.

g-nome3843d ago

Stop it now , i'm still trying to catch up.

Redempteur3842d ago

You cannot stop the train..

You're saying that but deep down , you're happy aren't you ?

RedDevils3842d ago (Edited 3842d ago )

I can feel your pain, I'm trying to finished all my plus games as well but the games keep coming :)

Salooh3842d ago

Definitely an amazing month but only remember me for me. I already finished rising , not interested in vita games .

KwietStorm_BLM3842d ago

I gave up trying to catch up a while ago. Best thing is, since I have no intentions of letting my subscription lapse, the games I never got to will just be there. I'm gonna have to make sure I stay on top of PS3 updates from here on out though. It'll be November before we know it. It would really be cool if I could access those games through Gaikai on PS4. That would be so much win.

DarkBlood3842d ago

well some of it is going to go away eventually, you could just accept the download and just cancel it

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

Record of Agarest War 2 announced for PS3

Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5063d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905063d ago (Edited 5063d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5063d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5063d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495063d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5063d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5063d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
