Arcade/Toy racing games are thriving right now, the first Unleashed is one of the best Hot Wheels games ever and this should be no different. I grew up on Hot Wheels Stunt Track Driver 1/2, Crash!, and Velocity X, so this is right up my alley.

Hoping LEGO 2K Drive goes well too, LEGO Racers on N64/PC is still an excellent kart racer.

Great month, looking forward to Hot Wheels, I really love some good old arcade racing

darthv72371d ago

Heck yeah... love me some hot wheels

CobraKai371d ago

It’s fantastic. I paid full price and it’s worth it

LG_Fox_Brazil370d ago

Of course, these subscriptions cost money, you know?

MrVux000370d ago

Something inherently wrong with that?

Crows90370d ago (Edited 370d ago )

Yeah. Ps plus gives you value for your money. Unlike a different subscription that just takes your money. Hence why Sony where the first at every turn to give what players want or appear to be interested in. Free monthly games...check. subscription service with games ...check. And as always Microsoft goes in to do the same but constantly fails at giving good value. Games with gold has sucked the majority of it's existence. Gamepass is more expensive than ps plus extra and it doesn't give you online or monthly games. Ultimate is the most expensive service and yet it has less high rated games on its service than ps extra.

So yes. We should always judge these services for the value they give.

Hopefully they have God of War Ragnarok, Modern Warfare 2 Remake and Last of Us Remake for December 2022. This selection is down right depressing 😞

FinalFantasyFanatic370d ago

Yeah, nah, they're not going to give us Ragnarok when it's practically just come out, they know they can still make alot of money off that one for another 6 or so months, probably the same with the Last of Us Remake.

Crows90370d ago (Edited 370d ago )

Oh so you want all of the games for pennies. You think that would help the devs much? Gaming isn't a charity business.

another good line-up. Hot Wheels looks interesting. Never played it.
Still hooked in Need for Speed Heat (this month's PS Plus free game)

darthv72371d ago

This just reminded me to nab NFS before it was yanked. Thanks for that.

lucian229371d ago

Looks like another good month. Really was happy with gran blue fantasy last in the current month.

MIDGETonSTILTS17371d ago

I’m so glad I didn’t buy this on sale, albeit now I have to get the dlc

CobraKai371d ago (Edited 371d ago )

I didn’t know Superhot was a non-vr game too.

Mr Logic370d ago

For those that read this, keep in mind that Superhot was a flat game that was later made into VR. It wasn't a VR game that was ported for more sales. Both are worth playing as the levels and scenarios are different in both versions.
