    does anyone know how to easily see your PS Plus games versus games you've bought and are yours?
    backlog gone too big to remember at this stage..
    out of interest...its annoying that in the end you are only renting these

    You could check out the instant game collection page on wikipedia for the full list of games if that helps but I don't know if you can check on the store.

    This is just a guess but maybe you could log in on the website and sort games by price, tis worth a try.

    Actually, isn't there an add-on for Firefox or Google that can help you go through the games you've bought and I think it can help you view what you've got free on Plus.

    Found it: PSDLE

    Never knew they expired. How long do we have them, a year?

    All depends on how long your PS+ sub is for. As soon as that expires, you lose access to the free games.

    For as long as you have your PS Plus subscription is active.

    It is, you lose access to the Xbox One games when Gold expires.

    but they come back when you renew or join again no? you don't lose everything just because you forget to renew for a few days. the sense of panic is not really coming across well in this post.

    Aye, I lost access for a couple of days without realizing it because I forgot to renew. Got full access to all games once I re-subscribed.

    Well one this particular issue is it not the exact same?

    You lose Xbox one games till renew.
    You lose ps 4 games till you renew.

    PSN is way way better last few years.

    Oh sweet Jesus nobody even the biggest Sony fanboys in the world could say ps3 online was stable let alone good.

    Downwell is so much freaking fun. Haven't been able to put it down for much of the day. Love the Amstrad/Speccy style graphics too!

    Downwell's a good 'un alright. Pure mechanics, no fat. Bastard hard for sure once you get down a few strata, but a perfect example of how to take one basic idea and just go to ****ing town with it.

    AC Freedom Cry is probably some of the rare AC content that I don't own, so happy to get that this month :)

    Already have JC3 since launch, highly recommended pisstake sandbox of destruction, with a not too terrible story if you end up playing it :D

    Played a little JC3 last night, could only go to the practice island as the game was downloading. So was just blowing up barrels, a burning barrel fell over a hill and then a whole tree exploded 100 feet in the air.
    Totally sold.

    I remember them being painfully slow, but I think it was when I had the original ps4. I think they are better on the pro.
    The SE servers are awful and it's an always online game.
    I think you can force offline mode if you disconnect you internet.
    It makes the game faster :D

    Got around to playing some of Just Cause 3. I don't know how long I'll last before I get bored of it but goddamn that's a great version of Firestarter to kick off proceedings.

    Tried Just Cause 3 last night and the loading screens were getting to me after a while. What is more unforgivable though is the length of loading after you die... absolutely infuriating. I was reminded of how good the Uncharted games are in this regard, you die but you are back in play really quickly.

    The grappling hook mechanic is also ridiculous imo...

    I thought the version of The Prodigy's Firestarter was fantastic also!!

    Yeah, them loading screens are pants. I can already see myself deleting the game. Just so off-putting.

    It's a fantastic cover. Actually took me a min to cop on to what song it was.
