Definitely its best month no doubt. The other games they were giving out were just way too dang old.

Kingthrash3603768d ago

this^
finally they bring something...gwg has been a laugh riot with the past games they released.
but still wayyy behind ps+ tho..bioshock infinate is a potential goty and is less than a year old. but progrees is better than nothin.

lassenwolf3768d ago

Sleeping Dogs cool, but another dud with craft, I did have but it's still just ok. Now if it was Tomb raider then that would be close to psn plus, but infinite and dmcHD alone beats gold hands down. I stopped all gold downloads and doesn't matter what the games are now, I'm done with live anyway. If I didn't have my kids tied to my account I would close it. Wiiu/3ds/ps4 all the way. Ms security has made me give up 100%. Love the system hate the crap you go through to keep a live account

"Ms security has made me give up 100%."

You mean like clicking the A button to sign in?

ALLWRONG3768d ago (Edited 3768d ago )

Sleeping Dogs is a good game

"Solid game. Old game." At least I'll actually own it and not just rent it.

fattyuk3768d ago

I'm one of those people who have rented sleeping dogs, it's sat on my HDD as we speak, I've played it and enjoyed it, I currently have it rented until may 2016 - I'm sure by then I won't be wanting to go back to play it.

^^^ this also applies to Lara croft

Well done to Microsoft for bringing a good(ish) game to the games for gold collection! Keep it up.

Thanks for the list.
I knew I had sleeping dogs already but I forget what games I got from Sony since they give so many away.
Getting hard to keep up.

LAWSON723768d ago (Edited 3768d ago )

Sleeping Dogs is fantastic, also I dont think people realize PS+ was made as a premium membership that would give free games while Xbox Live was not. Why the hell would anyone buy PS+ if it was not needed to play online? Free s*** that's why! Why did people buy Live? They had too. Next gen is different but this is related to last gen. No one bought gold to get free games at least I hope not lol. PS+ had to have free games that would impress considering people spent $50 for really hardly any other reason, to get people onboard with the paying idea. Genius idea of Sony IMO, so the whole paying for online does not seem like a huge negative when free crap is flying at you left and right. I remember last gen when the two platforms were compared MS had the payment to do what the PSN did for free. They win again by giving things for free, unless MS steps their game up (I doubt it).

All this is kind of jumbled but its late so oh well.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil9d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai9d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing698d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle8d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal8d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa8d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal8d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

boing18d ago (Edited 8d ago )

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.

LG_Fox_Brazil155d ago

Do they explain in the video why there are two numbers 3? Starfield and Tears of the Kingdom?

It's always refreshing to see games embracing the streaming community.

Bloodborne is a game I still restart and play every few months. I would welcome just a re release in 60fps with a visual upgrade. It's a perfect game. If I was king for a day I would include the randomizer mods because then it would be a kind of rogue like and I could play it forever.

gleepot355d ago

Sure, ill take a sequel to all of these.
