Dishonored for 21.50ish sounds very good! Watchment is a great game and Stuntman Ignition is completely worth it at that price. My first game on PS3, great laugh.

If its 10 euro on your store, then on the UK store its... £8 for darksiders 2? Bargain.

Strange thing is, in the blog update it has Darksiders 2 as £9.99, which I'm guessing is a typo. So yeah, think it was under £8, if going by the price for de Blob 2.

These offers start when the store updates

Don't know if I asked this before, but I was just wondering is there a way to purchase games you have from the Instant Game Collection? I mean we know you lose access to the game if your sub expires, so say I wanted to take advantage of that Arkham City offer with my sub expiring next month, is there a way to do it?

Oh and the offers are available now

Would you not just delete the game from your hardrive, then purchase it?

Not that sure

I'd say you're better off just keeping up the sub, but if you do want to buy a game outright you can't unless your sub is already gone.

cloud493 · 13-02-2013 3:06pm

Just bought the sly trilogy, Arkham city, grand total of 15 pounds 91 pence

seems (by my calculations) you saved over a quid (~1.30) by buying in sterling, nice one!

I'm considering sly myself, is Arkham city not free on psplus at the moment?

Oh my sub's not going anywhere until 2014 at least(that's when I've subscribed to)

Was just wondering if it was possible.

I've €4 left in my wallet, Darksiders any good?

No. It was only up for December I think. Gone again now.

I personally really enjoyed both games in the series. For that price I'd definitely recommend it.

For a brief second, I read the first part of Penn's reply and thought it was to LF and was about to go on a rant.

As I now see the situation as it is, I will simply say, yes, Darksiders is definitely worth it. It's a Zelda game wrapped up in different aesthetics but that is no bad thing.

cloud493 · 13-02-2013 8:50pm

I'm actually tempted by a few more games. Definitely renewing my plus subscription, it's fantastic.

dan hibiki · 13-02-2013 10:03pm

[QUOTE=. It's a Zelda game wrapped up in different aesthetics but that is no bad thing.[/QUOTE]

id say its more like Devil May Cry, but much more badass.

From the PlaystationEU twitter

What sort of content do you want to see on PlayStation Plus? Let us know on PS Blog: http://bit.ly/YsZEy4

Free games? Hmmm, got them.
Free recent games? Yup, got Sleeping Dogs
Discounts on games? Check.

So if you were to make suggestions, what would it be? For Plus, not PSN in general.
Although I don't use it, I would suggest Home based freebies to encourage people to check it out and remind them it exists.

Can't really think of anything else. I'm sure some people would like free DLC, but I understand why they don't do that. It's their way of making money from the free games.

Beefy78 · 14-02-2013 11:36am

I'm loving Sleeping Dogs, but on the whole I still preferred PS+ as it was a year ago when the emphasis was more on the PSN games than 12-18 month old larger retail releases. That's just me though.

jaxdasher · 14-02-2013 12:04pm

I would like a ps1/2 game now and then.

Otacon · 14-02-2013 12:12pm

CastorTroy wrote: »

Free movie rentals
The inclusion of free PS Mobile games

Can't think of any more right now.

Stacking for €2.49. Not sure how long for. Nice game. Have it on PC. Well worth the price, in my opinion

Sleeping dogs is amazingly good, delighted with it! There's a couple of free DLC packs in the PS store for people who mightn't have noticed yet. Not much, think it's a car, a few bits of clothing.

Morpork wrote: »

Sleeping dogs is great fun. Not a huge fan of the driving mechanics though.

Agreed, driving mechanics isn't great. Cars seem to move a bit more unnaturally compared to GTA. Sort of on rails.
But the view behind the car is far better than GTA, you can see exactly what's up ahead without when going fast.
Story/acting/fighting all done really well imho

cloud493 · 14-02-2013 2:16pm

I want okami, either free or discounted :rolleyes:

I love GTA IV and especialy Episodes but that was the one thing that annoyed me about the games. Having to hold down the right analog stick so you could see ahead of you. Hopefully they fix it for V.

As regards Plus, maybe bigger discounts on newer games when they put them on sale...suppose they've done that already though with Darksiders 2 and Batman :pac:

Zero-Cool · 14-02-2013 2:39pm

Mads to play Shift 2 again, raging I didn't have PSN+ back when it was free. Would be class if we got Resi 2 or Resi 4 free. I think a PS1 or PS2 free game should be mandatory every month

tok9 · 14-02-2013 2:47pm

Something I'd like added to + would be the ability to change your PSN ID.

RedXIV · 14-02-2013 3:08pm

They talked about it once ages ago, about the possibility of introducing a policy in plus where you are offered 4 games and pick 2 etc. I'd like that feature. In saying that, I rarely even notice anymore if I have a meh month as my backlog is huge

That's the only problem with PS+. Too many games and not enough time

Another possible PS+ additional feature:

A time machine!

Ah tits! Oh well, I've it downloading now anyhow. Is the F1 and Conundrum ones worth a download?

Started playing Qunatum Conundrum last night and I am really enjoying the little I played. It think it has borrowed some ideas from Portal, but its still its own game. I definetly plan on giving it more time.

They were both made by the same person so I'm not surprised they share ideas!
