This month for PSN is not a good month with the exception of the invisibles which I heard good things about.

What makes GWG so good every month is the fact that not only does MS offer free X1 games but also 360 games that can be played on X1. The best value every month.

You also get to keep the 360 games even if you lose the subscription

ABizzel13069d ago

The XBO + 360 tie in, is nice, because you can get all 4 games on a single console, whereas PS gives you 6 games, but most of the time you have to have all 3 platforms.

If anything they need to incorporate PSNow into PSN, so they can do a similar thing.

captainexplosion3069d ago

PS Plus generally gives you about 4 games a month for PS4. There is 4 this month. And they are real PS4 games, not last gen games that can be played on current gen.

By chanting 'DELETE' or with a Psycho Crusher?

I can honestly say that I've never heard of any of these games. I don't know if they are good or not. They all sound like Indie games. Are any of these games retail non-Indie games?

Invisible Inc: Console Edition – $19.99

Stories: The Path of Destinies – $14.99

Hyper Void – $9.99

Color Guardians – $14.99

Tiny Troopers: Joint Ops – $7.99

VVVVVV – $7.99

From what I've read, it looks like Invisible Inc: Console Edition, Stories: The Path of Destinies & VVVVVV are the best of the bunch. Guess I'll check those out. A pretty lackluster month for PSPlus this Dec.

There good games and I actually wanted them. Xbox we already had sleeping dogs on ps for free and the others are old and played long time ago.

Condemnedman3069d ago

sleeping Dogs on the ps3 but not on the PS4 though?

XanderZane3069d ago

Those games were on XBox 360, but now on XB1. Now they are. I been wanting to replay Burnout Paradise for awhile. The games may be older, but they are still great games that not everyone has played.

Me neither. Deleted it. Robocop is clearly more my level.

It's pretty damn good. I'm about 16 hours into it. Lots of secrets and mysteries. I'm on day 14 I think. Still haven't beaten it. Gotten very close a few times. Unlocked many secrets already. Instead of writing down things, I usually take pictures with my Playstation and write on them using the editor, its very fast. There is a small element of luck, but mostly it's about learning and planning and solving puzzles that are bigger than the one room you're in or the item you're looking at. There are so many secrets that some players will never know unless you put in the time and learn and pay attention. It's an eerie and mysterious puzzle game. I think it's addicting and a lot of fun. 9/10

I just got to day 4. First 2 days I started going into it blind, and just trying to remember by memory but got overwhelmed pretty quickly. Got a handy dandy notebook and my notes will definitely help in the long run.

Been enjoying it so far, but with Oblivion dropping and me stupidly picking it up, might take a hit to my playtime on Blue Prince.

I like that critical thinking and puzzle solving go hand in hand, and you're not having your hand held the whole time.

No game is for everyone. We all have different tastes, some have broader taste some have more specific taste and it’s ok either way. Play what you like!

***The problem is, the game tells you absolutely nothing about what you’re actually supposed to do.***

Getting to room 46 itself is a puzzle and the whole game tells you to solve puzzles.

***But how do you know if something in a room actually has meaning?***

It's a puzzle game. It's not just going to hand you the answer. I guess this is the point where we get to people who want an NPC to tell them how to solve the part of a puzzle and the people who truly want to figure out the puzzle for themselves.

This makes me feel like some gamers are becoming more like my nephews, they're not solving problems, they're just looking for youtube videos of people who have solved them and following what they did.

P.S. Please don't write another first paragraph like the one in this again. It really sets a tone that you don't know what you're doing.
