From what we were shown, Gatling Gears looks set to be an entertaining co-op experience for XBLA and PSN and if the remainder of the game is as polished as the taster we were given, this should be an enticing product when it’s released in Spring this year
Posted by Morgan Haro // Community Manager, PlayStation Digital Platforms -
January is almost over, and we have one more Plus update for you, but first let’s reminisce on this month’s offerings, shall we? Plus member freebies included NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, Darksiders, Mega Man 9 and 10, along with Foosball 2012, and we there were some awesome deals with the 13 for ’13 discounts (last day is today). Topping it all off was access to the God of War: Ascension multiplayer beta, and the 12+3 Plus promotion where you can buy one year of Plus and get three extra months at no additional cost; which is active right now.
We’re sending January off by welcoming Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus for PS Vita, free for Plus members! There are also some amazing PSN gems at fantastic prices that you may have missed. Read on and enjoy the update, which takes effect when the PlayStation Store updates on January 29th.
Happy to see Ninja Gaiden Sigma on Plus for the Vita. Just in time for the second one.
They should have done the PS3 and PSV versions, but still a new / old Vita game is always welcomed.
Your not entitled to both. Stop crying, and learn to appreciate. Have u ANY idea how many free games, deals, etc we already got in January alone?
@donbear
You seem to be the one throwing a hissy fit. I was just saying it would have made sense to release both version seeing how the original is over 7 years old on the PS3.
I still have the original Sigma, it just would have been nice for everyone to get both since not everyone has a Vita. Which I have as well.
Think before you speak, you come off as rude and obnoxious. Neither of which are appealing qualities.
I don't think Sigma for PS3 is on the PSN though is it? Would have been a big ask for them to mail a copy out to every PS+ subscriber if not.
Heck yes! I always wanted to play this on PS3 and Vita, yet never got the chance to own it. This'll be great. Man I love PS Plus...
Wow NGS+ this week,you done well SCEA you done well.
Never did gotten around to it and was thinking about purchasing it before NGS2+ but guess i won't have to ^^
I will admit i dont have to buy too many vita games. They do give us better Vita titles than PS3 titles.
For the EU users:
We get:
Sleeping Dogs – February 6th
Quantum Conundrum – February 6th
F1 Race Stars – February 6th
WipEout 2048 – February 13th
Lumines Electronic Symphony – February 20th
:D
lol...yeah getting dozens of free games for 50$ a year and awesome discounts is such a horrible deal.
Maybe he was referring they offer games he has no interest in ? Its not like we are all the same and like same games duuuuhhh !
There are too many games PS+ offer for someone not to enjoy any of them...he's just trolling...there's something for EVERYONE on the PS+ instant game collection...and most of the games are actually VERY good...
I understand someone may not enjoy a game they release one week, but to make a statement insinuating that the whole PS+ instant game service is not worth it is ridiculous.
I love my PS3, but PS PLUS has been lacking lately, unless you're in Europe where you get Sleeping Dogs for free in February.
I'll renew it if it gets better, until then I'll use that $50 for a Last of Us pre-order.
Lol we just got DarkSiders, Bioshock 2 and RE 5 Gold Edition. How exactly have they been "lacking". Also this isn't the big PS3 game that we are supposed to get for the month. See the EU blog shows monthly update while NA does weekly so we will more than likely get a full retail PS3 game in the coming week.
Darksiders is mediocore game(IMO), Bioshock 2 is terrible, and Resident Evil 5... do I even need to say how many things are wrong with that game?
I'm happy other people are enjoying the update, I'm just glad I didn't renew as nothing has been tickling my fancy for quite sometime now.
I understand that you may not like the games offered to you from Plus as of lately, but its not only about games that you have interest in, but games you would have never tried before.
There have been countless games offered to me on plus, that I would have never bought because I had little to no interest in it. I'm happy to be a plus member, because I can download a game for free at least once a week that I may not have played before. And If I did, I can have it on my Hard Drive and give my retail copy away.
I also favor the discounts on games due to being a plus member. I got LBPK for 10 dollars, Shank 2 and Warp for 2.50 and The Unfinished Swan for 3.75. I paid less than $20 dollars for games that would have normally ran me close to $80 or $100 dollars. Some of them I had no interest in and the potential lose of not liking them was at a minimum, because of the savings and the price for them.
That is just me though.
Dude, ps+ is far from lacking. I for one beat re5, bio2, and darksiders a long time ago. I was bummed that we didn't get duex x and won't get sleeping dogs. I got over it and I still think ps+ is one of the best things that ever happened to ps3. So keep your chin up son.
greatness.. now ill be buying sigma 2 plus day uno.. As well as DOA 5plus
Yes!!!! glad i do my yearly renewal every year!!!! Never bought Darksiders so i can enjoy that one and Ninja Gaiden Sigma for vita!!! Hell Yeah.
Just beed more space because both my ps3 HDD (250 gig) and vita are at its capacity.
A look at some great, Sony strategy titles. All games are ranked according to gameplay, graphics, and overall replay value.
10) Disgeae 4: A promise Unforgotten
7) Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention
5) Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice
Two problems with this
Detention was a PSV game and in what world was Disgaea 3 better than 4?
Because as you can probably guess this was a badly put together and researched list. Was basically just every STG title to appear or be talked about by Sony.
Loved Deadblock and Awesomenauts especially - but I'm glad to see that Plants vs ZOmbies was tops! I was so excited when this was added to PS+, and really I feel that just about anyone can jump into it. Not too over the top military, great gameplay and simple mechanics.
Glad to see at least one of these comments offers something meaningful to the discussion!

As one would expect from a game of this genre there is little to no narrative. Long (or perhaps already short) story short, the Empire is bad and you have to stop them from crushing your people into the ground by fighting back in your curiously AT-ST-like mech. The story is presented only through some hilariously bad dialogue and a few still frames between chapters. Gatling Gears’ campaign provides a decent play time of roughly five to six hours. The story divides itself into 6 chapters, each one containing five levels and containing several action packed encounters with infantry, tanks, and aircraft of all sorts.
