DIYgamer.com writes: "Released in late March to the Playstation Network, HamsterBall, developed by Tik Games, completely epitomizes why we, as humans, have created the oft-coveted HamsterBall… so we can watch our furry friends do crazy, batshit, insane stuff without having to worry about them getting hurt. HamsterBall kicks this up a few notches and allows for what I always dreamed about in my youthful years staring at my boring regular hamster run in circles in his own personal little plastic bubble.
For those that didn't do any prior research, HamsterBall is a track following, race-the-time game featuring 50 crazy courses and your hamster… in a ball. There's no real story, it's just one course after the next. In order to beat each level you have to get to the goal before the time runs out. Of course, there are other modes too, but we'll get to those in the actual review. For now this simple synopsis is really all you need to know to understand the game.
Hamster ball, timer, goal… check"
“There are tons of PS3 games that you can stream with PlayStation Plus and Hamsterball is one of the weirdest but it's also super-fun.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
A clumped mass of games is hitting PSN next month, and a lot of it is free to PS Plus subscribers. Including Awesomenauts, the multiplayer battle arena style game from the creators of another former freebie a la PS Plus called Swords & Soldiers.
The list of free games goes on and on, most likely totaling somewhere in the range of $100 worth. For PS3 gamers that have not yet signed up for a Plus subscription may want to consider next month as the best time to do so.
Remember though, nearly all PS Plus freebie are only free for a one week period, thereafter going for the full price, so you want to be punctual.
I thought I was the only noticing the sudden wave of good PS+ deals. So many things I've wanted to get in the PS store are PS+ only. I'll never be a member though. I refuse to pay for online.
^^^ Not necessarily as not everything is free. But whatever you want to call it I refuse to pay. I'm glad that I have the option to choose.
I think they're still there so if you sign up before next Tuesday you'll have everything.
Both Shift 2 and Shank 2 are previously released titles. May's freebies are comprised of several NEW releases. Tallying the monetary value in the two months so far shows May as the better month, but as @goflyakite said, newbies could get everything if they get on now.
If later on there will be GTA 3 or Vice City or San Andreas HD free for PS+ user? GTA V is on the way, there is every possibilities that it can happen! If it does happen, MEGATON and if it still can't convince people to go Plus, only then I think nothing else will!
XBLAFans looks into alternatives for those missing Marble Blast Ultra, which was recently delisted from Xbox Live Arcade.
