    I'd like something better than reissuing 5 year old indie games this month

    I don't have an Xbox 360 or use my crappy netbook for gaming so I was happy to get my hands on Super Meat Boy since seeing it on Indie Game: The Movie.

    Yes - but what AAA games would they likely add - Knack. No thanks

    I actually wouldnt mind Knack but AAA titles that could be free - Battlefield Hardline/Killzone/Soul Suspect/NFS/AC Unity. There are plenty they could start generating money from buy giving the base game free and hope people buy add ons.

    I like very few of these neo retro games, although a few of them have surprised me, but I haven't been hooked in for long by them, really.

    Maybe people haven't been buying the add-ons like they hoped they would so it's become less attractive to give the core game away for free. I bought the Awakened DLC for Dead Space 3 in a sale but I think that's the only add on I've got for any of the games I got from PS Plus.

    I reckon Soul Suspect will be given away free in the next couple of months. Might not be for PS4 though.

    All the launch titles, AC Blackflag, Killzone, Lego Marvel, NFS Rivals. They are all coming up on 2 years old next week.

    Didn't Games with Gold get AC Black Flag a couple of months ago for Xbox1?

    Yep, thought it was going to go to Plus soon after.

    Gold got Ground Zeros a month after Plus.

    I think AC4 is a contender with AC6 just released.

    Same as, I've put a shocking amount of hours into that game. I've just changed from an Expert to a Master last night, go me :)

    Asia has gotten Thief on the PS4 for November, the moaning today will be entertaining if we get it.

    I wouldn't mind playing it but hear it's awful plus I've seen it in some shops for 15 quid.

    That came out for PS3 a good few months ago in the PS+ deal - for feb. I doubt we'll get it. Plus Asia got Super Meat Boy, so i doubt it'll be anything like the lineup they got

    That is why the moaning would be entertaining, but no we never get the same, but it is significant as it is the first AA game being offered on the service for the PS4 so far.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Dragon Fin Soup is a strong possibility this month.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,519 ✭✭✭Flint Fredstone


    If it's not Thief, write me a short story on why you should get my copy of that piece of crap game and I'll gladly send it off to the winner :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,528 ✭✭✭Lucious Sweet


    Thief is utter ****e and it only got a 67 rating on Metacritic so that should rule it out if the old ≥70 rating still applies.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,375 ✭✭✭✭kunst nugget


    I don't think it's as bad as all that but there's something a bit off about it. It's just doesn't excite you in any way. If I play it for an hour or two I enjoy it, I just don't feel any need to finish it at all. Maybe I'll get around to getting stuck into it but it's a tiny bit lifeless.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,505 ✭✭✭✭Xenji

    The rule got quietly scrapped a while back, although it was never really an official requirement as many thought.

    That metacritic rating thing doesn't apply anymore. They quietly jettisoned it a while ago.

    I need to play Knack. I have a morbid curiosity about it after all the slating it has had in this thread.

    Infamous Second Son would be nice.

    I'd take Knack or any Assassins Creed either having never played any of them.

    Not a major indie fan either, recently finished Valiant Hearts and enjoyed it though.

    that's about as Indie as Oasis.

    I played Thief on the PS3 and thought it was pretty awful. Not gonna cry if it's one of this month's offerings though, i'll just skip it.

    Ha forgot that was Ubisoft.

    Ah well if it's on ps plus and looks like the standard indie fare then it's an indie to me. :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,830 ✭✭✭✭Taltos


    Thief was one of my first games on the PS4. Unfortunately I'd only recently finished Dishonoured on the PS3 and was so blown away by that I couldn't understand how Thief could have lost it so badly.

    Either way if it's free I'll add it but can't really see myself playing it again anytime soon.

    I'm getting the feeling it's not going to be an overly impressive month.

    Looks like we are getting Magicka 2 and The Walking Dead.
