    What’s the deal with this? Does it come as a code in an email an you can activate it anytime or does it activate immediately.

    Getting a PS4 pro for Christmas so will miss out by that time.

    Thanks.

    Also does it mean I miss out on the free 14 day trial?

    You can purchase it now, get the free months games through the website.
    Then you have some games before you get your PS4.

    I would assume so. If you are after something in the Black Friday sale the ps+ requirement on the discounts is being removed on Friday.

    Hi Guys,

    I see on amazon you can get the above for around €42. Do you know if this will work with a IRE account? It would be great if it did as it would be a saving of nearly €20, as I am due to pay €59.99 at the end of December for my renewal :-)

    Thanks,

    ** Actually, you can get them for €45 in Smyths so happy days **

    Thanks,

    It’d only work for UK accounts, better off paying €3 more and buying it from the PS store directly, it’s 25% off at the moment for €45, I think the offer ends at midnight tonight.

    When are the monthly games normally announced? I didn't get any email last month strangely enough. Not on plus too long and so far only DL games in October, Amnesia and Hue. Hope they're decent this month, have my fingers crossed for Salt and Sanctuary.

    Nah didn't bother. Not the sort of games I'd be into.

    Didn't think much of bound at all, worms wasn't very good either.

    Hopefully the **** they offered as free games last month was just a decoy for the mind blowing December line up they are going to announce this afternoon...

    Darksiders 2 is a great game, as it was when I played it 10 years ago.

    Got the collection earlier this year. Loved Darksiders 1. Could only stomach about an hour of D2.

    I was all set for another great hack and slash game but I got some open world, equipment micro-management bullshít statfest.

    Nice little line up, sure we will have the usual people in crying about how they aren't Triple A titles but honestly, the best PS+ months are the ones in which they offer something a little off kilter.

    Darksiders 2 is a great game, especially if you liked the first. Granted, it goes from linear to open world, and there is a loot system, but it's simply a case of picking up better weapons. There's no crafting as such, you can use spare weapons to upgrade your favourite. And while there is a bit of inventory management, it's nothing like Fallout or the Elder Scrolls for picking up crap. Highly recommended.

    Never played the Kung Fu Panda games, but I liked the movies, so I'll give it a whirl!

    Have to say though, thought there would be more for December. Ah well, I was about to pick up DS2 again recently, happy I waited!

    I was looking for some more kid friendly games to play couch multiplayer with so Kung Fu Panda will suit me down to the ground.

    Was hovering over the buy button on the Darkaiders franchise pack on the steam sale.

    Glad i didnt but it now. Looking forward to trying out Darksiders 2 but after some comments here we may have been better off getting the original. Ah well,least ill get to try it now.

    Yeah pants line up last 2 months now, youd expect better given the PS4 is over the 4 year old mark now...

    Even the PS3 lineup is weak, Syberia 1 & 2 are good but Id like to think everyone has played the **** out of both them in the 15 odd years theyve been around.

    It's probably the best PS3 line up in a year, ironically…
