[FriskyTanuki]

We've known that since Monday.

It was assumed, but didn't someone here post a comment from Morgan saying they were trying to make both versions available?

No, today's PS+ post is the first one he's made in a few weeks. They had a bad image and his replacement wasn't sure, so he inadvertently spread bad information. I've been trying to tell you guys since Monday that it wasn't Cross Buy since is the fact of the matter.

 

[Kotomine]

I noticed that there are some new default PSN anime-style avatars. Does anyone know what they're from?

 

[dvgamer]

Uncharted 3 in the PS+ lineup makes me wonder what is going to happen to the Super Slim Uncharted 3 bundles. Assuming Newegg is right, we'll see a $250 PS3 super slim with 1 year of PS+ bundle announced at E3.. Why pay more for a game you could get for free from a cheaper bundle right?

 

[j.t]

So can you still get the platinum for UC3 with the free to play multiplayer? Isn't there a couple trophies for just playing one game.

No, It comes with the FTP multiplayer which has the Co-op mode locked. One of the two multiplayer trophies. I do believe UC3 is 45 ing gbs. WTF is that. I was gonna sell my disc but now nah hells no.

 

[Investor]

You don't like Deus EX or Saint Row the 3rd also? Even if you have all of these titles already, you have to admit it's still an amazing month's offerings.

I don't like strategy games so xcom is a horrible title. I also dont like little big planet and I own uncharted 3 already so what a horrible month.

 

[FriskyTanuki]

Were you expecting The Last of Us?

Nah, but I think the slightly more obscure games like last reward or the slightly less mainstream sleepings dogs work out better for us. I get that most people would be excited for these but as cags we tend to pick up the big games for $10-$15 over the years. Just a personal preference.

The big three games are supposed to be big, well-known, and popular games. LBP Karting is the biggest question mark of that group, but the rest fit that bill really well.

I would say Xcom is the biggest question mark, but to each their own. At the very least, I am happy I sold my copy of Karting for $30 now.

XCOM: Enemy Unknown sold quite well while LBP Karting did not, so my point still stands.

I was just being a sarcastic ass. I love plus even if I don't like every game they offer as I really don't like games like xcom.

I don't like strategy games so xcom is a horrible title. I also dont like little big planet and I own uncharted 3 already so what a horrible month.

 

[breakfuss]

omg these threaded replies.  x

**Will say, though, that I do enjoy the dark theme better. Not necessarily because I find it easier to read, but it just fits the whole "CAG" motif better. Sooo, uhhh, I guess you guys were right. For once.**

True. That's one of the reasons why I didn't pick up XCOM before. The game sold very well, yet it's still $20 at best brand new. Even used copies at Gamefly were going for $20 during their sales events. Unbelievable. I'm glad their over-pricing kept me from buying XCOM and a lot of other games. Now we get some of them on PLUS. Saint Row the 3rd and XCOM for me. Already have phyical copies of Deus EX and Uncharted 3. LBP games don't interest me, but I'm still very pleased with this month's offerings.

Myself and other cags picked up XCOM for $15 new when Best Buy had it on sale. I'm hoping to just break even by trading my copy in today haha.

 

[cancerman1120]

I would be tempted to sell my UC3 GOTY but Uncharted is one series I kind of want to own.  The other 2 games I have not played yet so I am happy.  Well done Sony.

 

[dgwillia006]

Happy as hell about Xcom, was going to buy it soon anyway. Already have LBPK and platted U3 though. Still happy

 

[MrBeatdown]

Seems like a bit of an odd selection for a long term set of games. A not quite complete Uncharted, a strategy game, and a kart racer.

I don't have XCOM or LBP Karting, so I'm happy, but I think Starhawk would have been a better choice than Uncharted, and Battle Royale a better choice than LBP, but it's hard to complain when these are pure bonuses on top of what's expected each month.

 

[TooPoor]

Which store is the best option right now to get close to $15 back?

 

[Josh1billion]

Aw man, I already have two of the three games.  But at least this means more online activity for LBP Karting, which has been very empty compared to LBP1 and LBP2.  I hope XCom is good.

Starhawk was already free about 6 months ago.

Only the single-player campaign was free, but the bulk of the game was not.

The multiplayer was forgetable in my opinion. Never the less it was still a good game.

I have to disagree. It's a good multiplayer game with a unique style to it that nobody else does on consoles.

Which store is the best option right now to get close to $15 back?

Last reported base trade value at GS was $11 on 6/5, so you might even beat $15 if you have several other trades or a 50% trade bonus coupon (assuming this news hasn't tanked the value yet). Base at BB is only $6, so max of $12.60 there if you are unlocked.

Edit: Still $11 base at GS as of 6/7.

[akathatoneguy]

can't wait until the black background is done so everyone will stop talking about the background.

Anyone take the dive on Let's Fish? (ha!) I'd really like to despite all the bad reviews but still can't bring myself to do it.

I did...I love quirky niche games so I thought about getting it at $20 despite the reviews, and with credit left over from the spend $50, get $10 promotion, I had to snag it at $10. Haven't played it yet, though.

 

[denvilcahill]

Just wondering...  With Playstation Plus I know I can download the free vita games to my PS3 via the Playstation store onto my PS3 so that if I ever buy a vita I will have those games to download....  But is there a way to do this using just a computer?

I'm wondering because if PS4 games are offered with a Playstation Plus subscription when it comes out I want to be able to get any free PS4 games made available even if I don't get a system at launch...  And I doubt I'll be able to use my PS3 for that...

You don't need to download anything, just get it in your cart and check out so its in your downloads list. You can use the website to get things for systems you don't have, and that'll probably be true for the PS4 as well.

 

[io]

Really surprised by XCOM. I was expecting PSASBR and am actually kind of disappointed we aren't getting it since I bought LBP Karting and Uncharted 3 for $10 a piece already.

- I have all those games. Yeah, I was really expecting PSASBR too. Given all the DLC for it I thought they'd go the route of giving it away and expecting a big boost in DLC sales.

I will have to see about dumping UC3 and XCOM (which I haven't even opened yet). Both should qualify for the $5 bonus at Gamestop (if trading 7 games). That means as of today you'd get $16 for X-COM and $8 for UC3 (though both quotes are a few days old and values can drop at any time).

And me twice - I have both the disc and digital versions of LBP Karting . I got the digital version when it was on sale a few months ago even though I should have known better. I was planning on selling the disc but my son wanted to keep it since the save files are not compatible between the two versions and he had played quite a bit on the disc version. It is pretty much now or never to dump that though. I don't think he has played in weeks so I'll quietly get rid of that, at least . (The base price at GS for that is $10 though it is a month out of date).

So it's been confirmed SR3 is coming out next week for PS+ IGC? Really looking forward to playing that since I haven't played any of the SR games before.

SR3 is not coming out next week. The 3 yearly IGC ones will come out next week. SR3 will be the week after that or the last week of June. Here's the official statement from the Playstation Blog:

"Speaking of the June preview, with all this PS Plus content, this month is shaping up to be one of the best PlayStation Plus months yet. UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception (PS3), XCOM: Enemy Unknown (PS3), and LittleBigPlanet: Karting (PS3) are all dropping next week, joining Deus Ex: Human Revolution (PS3) which joined PS Plus last week. You’ll still have Machinarium (PS3), Saints Row The Third (PS3), Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward (PS Vita), and God Eater Burst (PSP, PS Vita compatible), all coming in June as well! It’s never been a better time to join up."

So it's been confirmed SR3 is coming out next week for PS+ IGC? Really looking forward to playing that since I haven't played any of the SR games before.

 

[Halo05]

Sorta bummed that I bit on the cheapass LBP karting but at least I'll get to try out Uncharted 3.

I really need to play the second one :/

 

[FriskyTanuki]

So it's been confirmed SR3 is coming out next week for PS+ IGC? Really looking forward to playing that since I haven't played any of the SR games before.

Machinarium will probably be the normal free game for next week, as Morgan said Saints Row The Third is out later this month:

Saints Row will be coming later this month, so hang in there! Glad to hear you’ll have a great game to be online with the fam!

 

[TheLongshot]

Unfortunately, most of the announcements this month doesn't do me a lick of good.  Basically, the only games I don't own are Dues Ex, LBP Karting and Uncharted 3, and I played some of the last and found it wanting.  Oh well, I guess you don't win them all.

 

[mars009]

Hey guys quick question. So was playing sleeping dogs until my ps3 said my content expired and kicked me out...wtf!!! The expiration date says 5/2014 so what do I have to do now 

 

[FriskyTanuki]

Did you recently renew your sub, specifically after Sleeping Dogs was added to PS+?

 

[Namerson]

So many free games! I assumed that they would all be PS3 exclusive games but all three are great either way

Awww, so you're only getting three free games this month? How depressing. I feel your pain.

Did you buy and/or download the Trial, assuming there was one, at some point and maybe never play for the hour? If so, try downloading the game again, cancelling it, and see if that updates the license.

 

[KneeKnee]

Looking forward to some more Vita love from Plus.  Zero Escape is a good start,

 

[Jimbo1]

How long is it going to take to D/l Uncharted 3? How big is the digital version?

 

[FriskyTanuki]

How long is it going to take to D/l Uncharted 3? How big is the digital version?

The Free-to-Play Multiplayer game is about 4.8 GB, but there's nothing out there about how big the single-player campaign is that's only available in that.

 

[specialist]

Virtue's Last Reward was the best game of 2012, and one of the most brilliant gaming experiences ever. If you have a Vita, GET THAT. 

Anyone know about the free month of PS+ through Home? I tried doing it earlier and the servers weren't up or something.

Hey guys quick question. So was playing sleeping dogs until my ps3 said my content expired and kicked me out...wtf!!! The expiration date says 5/2014 so what do I have to do now

did you buy the psn account by yourself or here or ebay.... maybe someone sold you a used code and removed your system from the ones that are allowed ?

Pretty sure you can't do that free PS+ month quest until E3 actually opens on Tuesday.

They confirmed that the PS+ you can get via Home WILL NOT stack onto pre-existing subscriptions. Just a warning for those who might want to get it.

That happened to me on Sleeping Dogs as well last month. I had a 1-year PLUS subscription that had just started a few days before Sleeping Dogs came out. I played the game, and only had about 1 more thing to do before I would platinumed it, and then I got that same message stating that the content I'm currently playing will be expired in 1 hour, and then got kicked out an hour later. I was playing off-line then. So all I had to do was logged back online, and restarted the game and continue on to my Platinum.

X-com is a nice surprise. I've already played through Uncharted and I had a gameshare of LBP Karting at one point, but I sold it knowing it had a pretty good chance of entering the PS+ lineup. I was banking on PSABR being in there though so I'm a little bummed about that.

Really excited about virtues last reward

Definitely would not have bought it since its more akin to a book but it got great reviews

Can you explain to me a little bit about gamesharing? I have been looking, and am still looking, for Trine 2 to go on sale for over a year now. A member on here said that I missed a sale this past March, but I don't think so since I've been checking every Tuesday. Anyway, another member here was nice enough to offer to sell me his Trine 2 on his account at a good price. I would have no problem Paypaling him the amount, but I remember reading somewhere that Sony can and do ban your account if you are sharing it with others. I have way too many online games on my account, so I didn't want to risk getting it banned. Till this day, Trine 2 is still at full price.

I'm bummed about us not getting PSASBR, too. My only concilation is that there may be an Ultimate version one day with all the DLCs on it.

You won't get in trouble with Gamesharing. It may seem risky, but it's actually completely okay, per Sony and even CheapyD himself. Everything you need to know about Gamesharing can be found in this thread. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. The regulars are usually pretty friendly and helpful.
