Greysun from Twinfinite writes “There were some big heavy hitters showed off at E3 this year, but what about the smaller guys out there? Here are 7 of the most promising indie games shown at the conferences this year.”
All playable December 5.
Sable was cool, gave me a bit of motion sickness though. Lego Drive and Power Wash are fun games.
I bought Sable a while back because it seems like a game I'd love and the art style is amazing but ... dear God ... https://youtu.be/mIJ7EjKhN-... The framerate is like a car that's conking out and about to die. It stutters all over the place, especially on the bike. It's not very playable.
You can get used to a low framerate but not this. It's like this on every platform and I don't think they ever fixed it.
It was worth pushing through for me personally, it's probably the best example of a map that rewards exploration. But it is terrible especially when zooming through forests
that looks choppier than the Atlantic ocean on a and day,
hopefullY they fix that for the ps+ release cos' id like to check it out.
How come I never see you in the bad news xbox articles. Or the system sales articles. 40 percent sure sounds like alot but if you actually say the dollars it's really not.
Essential had a 60 to 80 increase which is around 34%. Nothing you say is ever factual.
And if it were 3 popular games released this year you would say everyone already has the games and still complain.
So rather than release recent popular games they should release old unpopular ones to reduce the chances of people already having them? Weird logic
Microsoft tried to raise their price and everyone cried, so they took it back. Then they eventually removed GWG free games.
SMH
What games are you getting this month with your basic subscription?
And of course it wasn't a 40% increase.
Monthly core is the same price, but PS is still cheaper annually even after the price increase
Replies(1)What will it take to get you removed from this site? Enough is enough. You are so toxic to the comments sections here.
Trash month for Sony. I expect better. They haven't had a month this bad in a while.
Sorry they didn't cater specifically to your taste? Next time I hope they contact you first.
I'm really happy with Lego 2K Drive. I was about to buy it for my kids for Christmas, and I know I'll enjoy playing it just as much as they will. Being able to actually build our own vehicles sounds pretty cool, and much different from the other samey-Lego games. (It's ok to enjoy Legos as an adult, we won't tell your friends! ;) ) Power Wash Simulator is a surprisingly fun, relaxing game. I'm hearing good things about Sable, but I know little about it.
It's good to cater to different kinds of tastes.
I'm a paying customer, so I have the right to criticize my displeasure with this months releases. Sony has dropped the ball this month and hopefully they bounce back in January.
"Sorry they didn't cater specifically to your taste?"
Why are you asking? Do you not know?
@TheEnigma313 - criticize a company because, even at the higher pricing, the monthly cost of PS+ is less than a cup of coffee? @ $80 annually that's $6.66/mo. Make no mistake, I dislike the price increase, but we're talking spending chump change each month while expecting gold in return. Furthermore, how many people here have $35-50 subs active? Meaning they've paid $2.91-$4.16/mo. It's just silly and beyond ridiculous that month after month people complain about free games that were an added bonus to PS+. What kind of value do you expect each month for the cost of less than a cup of coffee. Criticizing a company for unrealistic expectations is sophomoric at best, idiotic at worst.
@TheEnigma313 Yea, my apologies for the passive-aggressive response yesterday, I could have toned that down a bit. You're right, you have the right to complain. Just seems there's always so much of that on N4G, no one is ever happy with anything.
I still disagree though, Lego 2k Drive is a big score, as it's only came out in May. That's amazing to get a 69.99 title for free, only half a year after launch for the monthly price of a coffee, like @Seraphim said. The PC community has been wild about Power Wash Simulator this last year too, with an Overwhelmingly Positive score on Steam. I know the concept sounds boring on paper, but nothing scores "Overwhelmingly Positive" on Steam without being truly great. Give it a shot.
We're going into December where lots of kids are going to be getting their consoles, so they offered some family friendly games.
Just because you personally don't like the games does not mean they are bad games.
When can we complain about Sony offerings? Seriously, like I made a comment about the classic games not having been stellar and you went up my ass about that.
So, my question is when can we voice our opinions about not being thrilled about the PS+ offerings? I’m pretty sure “never” is your answer.

You guys don't appreciate what you have and you're going to make it worse for everyone. Microsoft charges $80 a year at it's cheapest rate and they get zero monthly games.
Sony is giving you at a minimum 60 dollars worth of games this month, for $6.65.
If you want a different game go on the PSBlog and tell them what types of games you want, don't just say oh PS Plus is shit blah blah blah just because this month they didn't give you that one game you want.
And I believe my point was in that conversation that no matter what they give you, you're going to complain, I 100% double down on that. I went through a list of games that people said they wanted which Sony put onto Premium yet people still complain even after getting what they asked for.
Seriously, you guys are kind of worse than Obscure and the other xbox fanboys they just throw stones at the wall, but you guys are tearing shit down from the inside. You're causing people to cancel which means Sony has less money and the service is only going to get cheaper and cheaper games.
If you want better games more people need to subscribe so Sony can pool our money and negotiate better deals, that's why all the xbox fans are in here talking crap they want you to unsubscribe so Sony will have less money to make games and put games on the service.
Replies(1)I'm very disappointed as well.
Coming up to Christmas, the month of December should be a blitz, but this is a deflated bean bag.
I've had PSN plus since the ps3 days, but I'm seriously considering letting my sub laps.

Tunic Team has partnered up with Fangamer to create a special, physical release for Tunic, the studio's mysterious, fox-starring adventure game. It's 45 dollars, but it's coming packed with quite a lot of stuff, including the full manual.
VGChartz's Chinh Tran: "Every year gamers are treated to a wide assortment of games from different genres. From small indie darlings to large tentpole releases, there’s just about something for everyone. And yet, every year, we’re still caught unawares by games that both surprise and delight us. 2022 saw the release of several key surprises, as the shortlisted candidates demonstrate.
Chained Echoes by lone developer Matthias Linda took everything fans love about 16-bit JRPGs while modernising them in several innovative ways. Neon White by Angel Matrix had players speed-running through levels while slaying demons with Soul Cards. Tribute Games masterfully took the Ninja Turtles back in time to the age of arcade beat 'em ups with Shredder’s Revenge. Andrew Shouldice almost single-handedly channelled the essence of classic Legend of Zelda games through Tunic. And finally Luca Galante had countless gamers addicted to Vampire Survivors, as they battled endless hordes of monsters in an action roguelike shoot 'em up of sorts."
