Pocket Gamer: Given the popularity of Dr Kawashima's Brain Training on the DS back in the day, it's perhaps quite a surprise that more of these brainy puzzle games haven't popped up. Or at least haven't seen the same level of buzz around them.
March was a good month for bagging yourself a bargain! Hopefully we'll be able to find a few more good deals this month too. Here are a few of the bargains that FantasyMeister managed to bag himself in the month just gone.

Not true at all. Ive just finished the Tomb Raider remake on PS4 earlier today and while some people say it isn't up to the last games standards (i think it's better), it's still a very solid, enjoyable game. Environments are great, the gameplay is great (specifically the bow), the story kept me entertained. It's pretty good.
If you have a PS3, PS plus and have yet to play it, i strongly recommend it.
As for the other games on PS plus this month, Dead Nation looks awesome on PS4! I like the interactive aspect while streaming. Can't wait to download that.
Edit: Just saw 'Brothers: A tale of two sons for PS3, awesome! Ive been waiting for this to come to PS plus for ages. Ps plus killing it, yet again.
abzdine - "I fully agree that this isn't good. Though I haven't played it"
That's the type of response you see from most people who don't like the new Tomb Raider. Ironically alot of these people love Uncharted
@ Matt, this Tomb Raider is a superior game than the rest of the franchise. I've played all of them. All. This is the best. It's nothing like the rest of the franchise sure. Still better.
You MUST be joking!
Tomb Raider 1-3 were complete crap.
The latest Tomb Raider is gold, especially on PS4.
The last Tomb Raider was amazing, it was a great reboot of the franchise. Playing it on PS4 right now.
New tomb raider is good. Been playing the ps4 one. Might get the double dipped dead nation update. Just bought dragons crown for $17. Very happy so far with it. Lost a lot of time in it today. Give me my bubbles back! Lol.
Nice one. My backlog gets bigger and bigger though. I'm actually surprised that Square Enix made that PSPlus deal for Tomb Raider considering they're trying to sell the Definitive Edition for full price.
Anyway I think I'll try Brothers A Tale of Two Sons first.
Pixeljunk Monsters is hands down the best game on that list. Pure gaming addiction.
yup, i got all the edition of that game lol.
Ps3 + encore - Psp version - Psvita HD - Pc HD .
I think i have a problem lol
At first i thought it was tomb raider on ps+ for the ps4 and i pooped a little bit...
Yep, and anyone else notice that Dead Nation while streaming (35 seconds in) viewers will be able to vote on what looks like helping or hindering you? Looks like a fun use of the interact feature.
They said that there will be 30 different commands to influence the game while streaming :D
lol so much trolling incoming. Gotta limit my stream to friends only... then I'll have a bunch of troll friends trying to get me killed -_-
I think you meant:
Best console service.
XBL isn't a service, its a paywall membership
Pixeljunk and Brothers the only games I'll give time towards I guess. Another port and a game JUST released on PS4 isn't the best message sent, I guess those who missed it on PS3 without a PS4 will enjoy.
Not surprised, next-gen consoles don't have a large retail library. It'll probably be awhile we see retail games, games 8-12+ months old typically end up on PS+, the PS4 isn't even that old yet .
I get that, and actively mention so on reddit, but there are plentiful indie titles coming which are perfect candidates for plus, not a port of a game given to everyone who had a ps3 during the outage.
April I am predicting will be Daylight for PS+ PS4 users. I think the first retail game we will see on PS+ for free for the PS4 users will be Knack.
Agreed.
I think Indie titles should be the highlight for awhile. Giving a PS4 version of a game that was given out for free on PS3 isn't exactly the best idea.
I was about to buy the definitive edition of tomb raider the other day, what odd timing there going to lose sales
The EU ps plus has been leaked again we take a look at the rumoured games and eye which game should be your next platinum.
meh? :D
wth !!Tomb Raider!!! and that Tales of Brothers thingy is pretty hyped I guess?
Pixeljung monsters :D :D awesome and smart as!
and Dead Nation for ps4 thats pretty cool
EU usually leaves me jealous, but i already played those games heh. TR was okay, pretty forgetable imo.
This update is rock solid imo. Been interested in Tomb Raider for the longest of time and now I finally get to play it atleast if I have the time. I've heard good things about tales of 2 sons. Also a pixeljunk monsters for my Vita? I'll take it!
Damn, i was hoping in the rumoured Dead Nation 2, i guess we're getting a port then. Oh well, i hope they add something new. Great game anyway, for those who didn't play it yet.
Well wrong article unless you meant the playstation store in 3D. Them discounts in ur face lol.
But honestly 3D would be great, Im sure it is coming sooner rather than later.
I actually just started playing some of my older games in 3D. I tried Black Ops one time and the 3D in that game is weak, its barely noticeable. But I just bought Killzone 3 and I think its the first time I ever seen actual 3D. The 3D in that game is amazing and now I want to play more games in 3D. I think 3D is under rated and under used but it seems like it was a fad. Even though TVs are still using it, there seems to be very few games and movies that offer it. Hopefully more games offer it because its not like the game can only be played in 3D. Having options is always a good thing. 3D works really good in shooters and I'd imagine horror, action, and platformers would also be more immersive.
I'm of the opinion that the Dead Nation port is to build hype for the sequel that Housemarque was touting.
I hope we don't get Tomb Raider in the U.S I bought in the December Sale so would feel stupid if we do
I'm still hoping we dont get Tomb Raider in the EU. I thought I'd wait a few weeks for the PS4 version to come down, but now I wont bother.
I also hope that Dead Nation isn't true as we got that on PS3.
And PJ Monsters I bought in the xmas promotions. Argh.
Oh well, back to Outlast.
So much for the Definitive edition, was thinking to get it when it hits the bargain bin but I can surely settle with the ps3 version for free. Its not like Im going to miss out on anything. Same game, just a rougher coat of paint. Cant wait.
