    GTAV :eek: :p

    By "something special", I'm guessing it'll be a game from the past year. Or if it wasn't for the sales Rockstar had on PSN over the past few months, I nearly would have guessed at the full GTAIV+Episodes game


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,839 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    I was thinking Max Payne 3 but hope not. I would gladly take San Andreas and Vice City please! I see a lot of R* games on sale so they would hardly give one for free after putting it on sale already?

    Yeah if it wasn't for that I would have hoped for GTAIV+Episodes or even Red Dead Redemption GOTY (including Undead Nightmare etc). Max Payne 3 might be a runner though.

    Signed up to this yesterday after reading through some of this thread. Seems like a great idea. Started playing Limbo last night.... WHAT A GAME!!! :eek:

    It cost me €14.99 for 90 days. Is that the usual price or is it usually more expensive? I know they had some specials over Christmas but do they often discount the yearly price?

    Excited to see what games they announce today. I basically haven't played any games over the last year and a half so there should be plenty for me to catch up on over the next few months.

    thats the normal 90 day price, it was going for about 11 quid just before xmas.

    Playstationer.net posted a rumour they heard
    Playstationer.net


    So here's what we're hearing. PS+ free games this month are F1 Race Stars, Quantum Conudrum, Sleeping Dogs, Lumines and Wipeout 2048





    what a load of crap! except Sleeping Dogs but I already cleared it. Not confirmed so hope it's the proper list.

    Would be delighted with that. Lumines and wipeout. Yes please!


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,702 ✭✭✭✭Penn


    Sleeping Dogs??

    I swear to f*ck, I nearly bought it yesterday and decided no, I had too many games to clear already. Then this morning I was checking out some gameplay videos of it and thought "F*ck it, maybe I will get it at the weekend"

    If it's Sleeping Dogs, then that is f*cking brilliant


  • Registered Users Posts: 779 ✭✭✭jaxdasher


    Thank god I didn't buy sleeping dogs. But I would like dead island too. I enjoyed it on the pc. Getting quite excited now. Next Wednesday wont come soon enough.


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,322 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Hope it's not Playstation All Stars, but fear it could be.

    Bought it on sale with a free Vita version from the PSN store last week.

    Jesus if that's true, it's amazing.

    Only problem I'm going to have here is that I'll have to finally invest in a 32gb Vita card.

    Its definitely not. They said it won't be for a long time if ever.

    Well if it's not, it's definitely worth picking up from the PSN store right now. €22.49 with a free copy of the Vita version thrown in.

    Do they make the announcements on their twitter feed?

    Posted on their blog but they tweet when the blog is updated.


    I doubt it'll be Sleeping Dogs or Max Payne. Or even F1 All Star Racing. Reason for me saying that is because when they started this, they said all retail games will be at least a year old(At least for the PS3. Clearly not the case for Vita)
    So wil be games that have more or less stopped selling in the shops/online

    I Know but I said I wouldn't buy anymore games until Bioshock Infinite and I already got the GTA collection to play it online with friends.

    It is a great price but I don't think I'd actually get use out of the game. Had super smash bros and barely ever played it.

    Hope you're right. I did buy Sleeping Dogs :o
    Still in plastic wrapper though. Between AC3, XCom and just starting Dark Souls it'd likely be in the wrapper for some time to come anyway.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,088 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    I was wrong. Sorry!

    It is Sleeping Dogs and Wipeout 2048 and Quantum Conundrum and F1 Race Stars and Lumines.

    My Apologies for saying otherwise. :)

    And Woohoo!

    So:

    6th Feb - Sleeping Dogs, Quantum Conundrum and F1 are being added and Bioshock 2, Ratchet and Clank and Cubixx are being removed

    13th Feb - Vita gets Wipeout and loses Jet Set Radio

    20th Feb - Vita gets Lumines and loses Pinball Arcade

    So if you haven't added them to your download list already, add all games about to be removed ASAP to be safe.


    And as someone was asking about discount, for 2 weeks from 6th Feb you get 90 days for €9.99

    Looks like the rumour was spot on. Very happy with that.

    Yup. Ah well. Gonna go trade it with someone that doesn't have plus :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,322 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Booom! Great update altogether.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,839 ✭✭✭✭Zero-Cool


    I already traded my copy but I might actually download this and buy that Bruce Lee typ DLC that came out recently!

    EDIT:

    DLC is Zodiac Tournament pack and is 3.99 euro. I never got the platinum so actually this will be a great excuse to go back to it. One of the best games of last year.

    I wish now i hadn't of platinumed Sleeping dogs 2 weeks ago. :(

    Wipeout will keep me happy! :D

    How does anyone with a PS3 not have Plus? It's the best €50 you'll ever spend on gaming.

    Fully agree about Limbo and here's a heads up re: subscription discount:

    "The new games will be available to subscribers from 6th February. At that point Plus will also be 30% off on the 90 day membership, a deal which is available until the 20th. People already subscribing can use this promo to ‘stack’ their subscription, too."


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,160 ✭✭✭tok9


    Seriously, If you have a PS3 and Vita, PS plus is too good! Uncharted, Gravity Rush, Mortal Kombat and now Wipeout and Luminees.

    That is excellent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,088 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Have the Quantum Conundrum bundle on PC. Good puzzle game from one of the main people involved with Portal

    Yeah, I think it's fair to say it's the best gaming subscription service of all time?

    Nice one. Was just off checking reviews of the other games. Loved both Portal games. Review sites must get loads of hits once the plus content is announced, everyone checking out the latest freebies.
