    Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there a way of upgrading to PS Plus by buying a €50 PSN card but paying a lower price than that, e.g. in a bricks and mortar shop?

    There was a time you could get PS+ cards for E35 - same as when you could get it for E35 on the store.

    If you want to wait, it may happen again - but since they stack, buy it now for E50 and when you see it cheap, buy it then too.

    The way I justify it is that it works out at .97c per week. And look at what you get for that. Nothing comes close imo. Netflix for a year costs more.

    Id say therell be some great deals on ps+ cards around the PS4 launch. Im not expecting anything great from it for the first 9 months on the PS4 tbh, just some free indie titles.

    There will be PS+ versions of full retail games for free like Drive Club with the option to upgrade to the full game. PlanetSide 2 will be free too. Yeah it won't be as good as what we have now, sure but not as bad as some think it will be.

    Yeah its great theyre giving away (most) of a launch title away but any 3rd party studio would be mad to put their game on plus within the first year.

    No doubt we'll see Knack and Killzone on it in 2015.

    Wow, once again, Sony kill it. It was a tough month competing with Assassins Creed 2 from Xbox but I think Sony just about nudged it this time!

    I never played Spec Ops but was mad to and Mafia 2 is brilliant! I never cleared Most Wanted before trading so will definitely play that again!

    EDIT: Shredded got in before me :)

    Worth it for Spec Ops alone. Mafia 2 and Most Wanted are just the bonuses in my opinion.

    Yeah, I have the DLC for Mafia 2 but can't remember if I finished it, would mind going back getting some trophies at least!

    Edit: Just checked my trophies on the Playstation website and it shows I only have one level done from Joe's Adventure, class! Although I haven't even finished downloading Battlefield 3 yet!

    Looks good, I've got Mafia 2 on the PC but never finished it so I don't mind restarting it. NFS, I played the demo and seemed all right. No idea about the other games.

    So I finished XCom and went to download the Hitman game, but the price was €59.99. I guess that must mean I forgot to purhcase it when it was in PS+? Or is there a way to activate old Ps+ games? Is there a way to see what PS+ games I've 'purchased', other than the download list in the store?

    New to the PlayStation Plus here, please excuse my questions. :) Regarding free games exiting PS+ at the end of the month, if I "buy" them now but not download them, will I be able to avail of them later, after I free up disc space etc in a few weeks? Wanted to try Catherine and Unit 13 but I think the blog says they leave the free games collection on July 31.

    Some more great games.

    Each month PS+ seems more and more like constipation:

    They add games quicker than I can finish them...

    Reading up on Spec Ops: The Line, sounds really good. Will be the first game I download when available.

    I'm thankful that I had the foresight to purchase and finish Spec Ops long before this. Just one more game that I don't have to add to my ever growing backlog.

    Maybe you should clone someone that is good at games?

    The worst thing about the PS+ backlog for me is that it causes me to completely neglect the huge backlog of other games that I already had. I started playing Ballad of Gay Tony for the first time a couple of days ago - two years after buying it, I got given Birds of Steel last year which I really like the look of but haven't had the time to try, I bought Far Cry 3 at Christmas and its still in the wrapping, I'm playing through Uncharted for the first time (I KNOW!!!) and have the other two games of that series lined up, Resistance 2, Resistance 3, Tiger Woods, Pro Evo and that's the 10% of my backlog that I can remember off of the top of my head.

    Obviously it's a ridiculous first world problem but it's still a problem, dammit!
