Maybe because it is an easier/quicker plat? Not at all, if you look at comments on YT or Twitter most people are tired of sports game in PS+. Indie games have gained a lot of popularity over the years, and PowerWash is one of them. The platinum is not as easy as it looks, it takes maybe 40 hours minimum and a lot of patience.

Pray_4_the_End Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Power Wash Sim is awesome, I've had that game in my Steam Deck rotation for about a year now. Don't really care about the others, but PWS is definitely getting that plat treatment at some point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHealthy Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Great month in my opinion. Interested in all 3 though I probably won't play power wash simply because of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Actually a good month for me. LEGO 2K Drive is a big get for me. I played the demo for it awhile back for PS Stars, and enjoyed it...so it was going to be something I bought eventually anyways. PowerWash Simulator isn't really my thing....I don't really get the whole [Insert Job Here] Simulator games. But I've heard nothing but good things about it, so I'll add it to the backlog. I know nothing about Sable...so I'll wait to see what people say about it. But it could very well be the first month in a LONG time, I actually play everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started in 2010 for $50 and wasn't required to play MP games; in mid 2013 is when plus was required for online play. Shuhei Yoshida said that they've used such a huge amount of resources to build their online infrastructure that keeping the online service free is basically stupid and that the "main pillar for PS4 will be online play".. so he essentially said it himself that playstations main player base and focus financially is online gamers and that their current 2013 ps plus system wasn't good enough. They needed the majority of gamers to pay to play. They used to have their own playstation news/lifestyle show and special online events for ps plus subscribers, but they quickly realised next to no one cared. The free games also weren't enough of an enticement and most just wanted to play their preffered game online, hence why I originally said ps plus is primarily for online play, not free games.

Maybe because it is an easier/quicker plat? Seeing how a used copy of any Lego game can still go around $20 after ten years while you can't even move used copies of the likes of NBA 2K15 for more than maybe $3 even if you put a ginormous "SALE" sign atop a bin of them, I'd wager you're wrong. edit: Accidental double post Edited November 30, 2023 by shadaik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked it up on ebay, literally the top result is 19.90, tough I'd say the mean price is about 15, cheapest that is not an auction is about 13. Same numbers for NBA 2K15 (PS4): Top result 3.70, mean is about 5, cheapest offer is 1.60. One. Sixty. At that point people basically buy it because coasters are too expensive for them. I don't even have to mention all NBA games are, by their nature, licensed games. Edited November 30, 2023 by shadaik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolvieware Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I think this is a great month. I’ve been keeping an eye on Lego Drive so nice I now don’t have to buy it. I’m also kinda interested in Powerwash as well at least to give it a try! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtotheMtotheZ Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Horrible month. Especially given it is December.. but figures given the fact that its the low tier product of playstation plus so they must have it look not so good so you go for the more expensive tiers.

ARIXANDRE Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) Fine-ish. I bought Powerwash a while ago. With Extra, I really shouldn't buy games anymore. Edited November 30, 2023 by ARIXANDRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChilledBrandon Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I'm actually really happy about Powerwash Simulator. I really enjoy zen sorta games where you can stick on a podcast/music and just play something relaxing. I've been wanting to pick it up for a while but never had the money when it went on sales. Lego Drive seems like it may be fun to try and play with some friends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MACZ2021 Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Haven't heard of Sable before the lineup was announced, but interested regardless. Excited to finally get to play Powerwash Simulator and had my eye on Lego 2K Drive for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauersack Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 I am so glad that I did not waste any money on it, this is easily the worst month I ever remember seeing on Psplus. A shitty 2K game, what seems to be the dumbest of these "mundane af task that people normally have to get paid for in order to do it for any length of time simulators" (Power Wash Simulator, fucking really? Whats wrong with people?), and a game so obscure that it would normally sell for 1-3€ on the ps store instead of being part of PsPlus. Sony is really putting that increased monthly fee to good use I see. At this rate I doubt I will bother getting Psplus anymore aside from the time I need to finish the psplus games that I already have started but still unfinished on my profile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of all the things one could simulate, someone chooses a game about the simulation of washing random shit like cars and walls by squirting water at them for hours on end? A quick glance on the gameplay and graphics already tell the story about a shitty, low effort cash grab that is the same action on repeat. People who are into this remind me of the old Patrick Star moment when he can dream about "anything", but then he dreams about nothing but this: Player numbers are already showing an obvious picture to me there btw, likely just bought for trophies, nothing that should be anywhere near PsPlus, especially when they just recently had the farming simulator, which is the same shit at its core but with at least some bit of effort put into. You can respect this kind of crap if you want, for me its laughable that something like this gets thrown our way as a PsPlus bonus game.

You do realise that Powerwash Simulator has a higher metacritic critics rating than the last three games played on your profile, right? It may not be your cup of tea… …but it clearly isn’t a low effort cash grab or bargain-basement trophy-delivery software. 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is wrong with being content with something relaxing and simple? Not everyone has to dream big or be ambitious, and the same goes with whatever you do in your freetime. After a long day I'd rather clean some cars and walls of dirt and be satisfied with the end result, than pick up a big game with an immense open world and a high difficulty 👌 Let people enjoy what they like without bashing them like they are freaks of some kind Plus, a free game is a free game! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
