Ps+ March 2018 (Bloodborne, Ratchet & Clank) + end of PS3/Vita PS+ in 2019

[snakebit10]

Well I'll just grab Mighty no. 9. Already own BB and R&C. 

[DamagingRob]

Is it really such a bad thing, to not want to throw your controller through the TV? The Souls series has never been of any real interest to me, so I can't say if I'll ever find the time for Bloodborne. Bomber whatever and Mighty No. 9 are the only other ones I don't already own, and those don't really interest me either.

 

Great month for those that don't own some of these already, though! Ratchet & Clank is stellar, and Claire is a neat little game.

SIXTY USD, 60 USD, SIX-TY JU ESS DEE FOR 2 STUPID GAMES EACH MONTH

lmao.

 

lower the stupid price or riot.

 

Put another way - $60 for 24 games, which makes a $2,50 per game average. $10 if you only are interested in one game out of four, not speaking about the cloud and online features. Just look at this month's line-up as an example: a game like Bloodborne for ten buck, is that really worth a riot?

[GoldenShaka]

what a way to announce the dead of PS3, with Mighty No 9 and Legend of Kay???

??

 

I really hope we have memorable titles during these last months

[DizzyDavidson]

Already have Ratchet & Clank and Legend of Kay. The rest I’m not really interested but we’ll see. Also RIP PS3 (and Vita) games.

[Dangisuckatgamin]

Own both ps4 games but honestly I've been gaming so much less so my backlog is way bigger...

[Arin1979]

Nobody says anything about the bonus game?

 

Kyurinaga’s Revenge

[locutus442]

Great line up.  Makes me want to re-up my Ps+ subscription (expired last October, didn't have the money to renew it and still don't).

[stellanovas]

Already have R&C on disc (boyfriends copy) but keen to download Bloodborne. I'll play it eventually LOL.

[Beyondthegrave07]

So Polygon reported that they will stick with 2 games a month only (PS4) once March 2019 hits so just to go ahead and pop the idea of 3-6 PS4 games a month. I think they should offer 4, but pick let us download 2. I'd hate for people to own every game offered.

[Mog]

I've been wishing for Ratchet and Clank for a while, Bloodborne is also great. Finally a good month for me! 

[AUSTRALIANDJ]

Wont be playing either of these. Time to catch up on old platinums

Neither the NA or the EU blog mentions this, is it perhaps a local addition? In place of a different game?

[Super-Fly Spider-Guy]

God damn it, I bought Ratchet a couple months ago, and Mighty Number 9 I already had on PS3 but I guess I'll grab the PS4 version anyway.

 

Headliners are both big games, even if both are under 20 all the time now, rest is shit.

[Lordguwa]

i'll end up getting 3 of the games. 

isn't a total loss on value if at least 3 of the ps4 games happen to be played in a year, wish they would sweeten the pot to 3 ps4 games (even 1 or 2 can be indies).

[K_Raw21]

Never played Bloodborne but I know a lot of people who talk great things about it so I'll give it a try. I didn't download any games last month they were all trash. Ratchet and Clank is a childhood favorite so I'll def snag it! It's a good month for me when I download 1 game, it's a great month when I download more than 1 

[Chingon_Player]

Good news for me.

I have none of them and in my country the price of those games combined is more than the plus subscription so

I cannot believe how many people are getting Bloodborne FOR FREE and are saying "I'm not playing THAT . . .". Are you fucking kidding me? That is one of the best games this generation and you're getting it free!!! Is almost like easy games like "Mayo" has emasculated the majority of gamer culture.

 

PICK UP YOUR SKIRT, GRAB YOUR CONTROLLER AND DISCOVER TRUE GAMING!

 

Well ...

 

 

Thats just like your opinion dude ... ?

 

Nah in all seriousness the difficulty I could give two ***** about if the rest of the game appealed even slightly to me .. I just don't know man. Can't pass judgement until I've at least tried it but from what I've seen the gameplay honestly just looks like a bland mashup of hack and slash RPG's and trial and error super meat boy gameplay. The story seems hardly existing unless you're willing to dig into the games wikipedia page online and the atmosphere ... well to be fair this seems like the most interesting aspect of the game to me although I'm afraid the dark gloomy "spooky" looking areas will start to get repetitive if thats all you get throughout a 40+ hour game

 

Still never said I wouldn't give the game a try (why wouldn't I when its free) its just hard to be ecstatic about a game I've got so many doubts about ?

 

[dmland12]

I'm glad I passed up buying Bloodborne a few times when I saw it on sale!

 

Sad to hear that they're reducing the number of PS+ games to 2 in March 2019.  I only have a PS4, but I've picked up some games I really enjoyed for it from the PS3 and Vita offerings.  I guess it was only a matter of time before they dropped support for both though.  I hope this means we're going to be hearing about a PS5 soon.

[Leo Leopold Leon III]

while this is an amazing month, I think they did it only because they had to announce the 2nd thing and giving us worse games wouldn't please people

 

in other note, removing 4 games, leaving only 2 and still asking the same price? shitty move on Sony's part, atleast make it 3 games

Yes, it is.

End.

[Dr_Mayus]

Well sucks I already own R&C but glad others get to play that great game

The rest are all interesting. Good month for my Birthday  

[damage_6-9]

Nice little selection of games, don't have 3 of them... however, the 3 that I do have are unplayed...... no one to blame but myself, lol

I wasn't hoping for anything, I was expecting that this is not just a drop, but a swap. Of course I'll be pissed if there's no trade-off, and I don't really think it's remotely likely that the rumour of PS+ ending up with only 2 PS4 games and nothing to take the place of the dropped games is actually true.

 

At any rate, I think you trying to laugh in my face because of this is jumping the gun by a wide margin.

 

And since it's Sony we're talking about, I don't think it's even remotely likely that they will give us more than 2 games in the IGC.  The only reason the IGC was good before PS4 was because Sony was losing the console war and was doing everything it could to compete with Microsoft.  As long as Sony is winning, they like giving nothing back to their customers.  I fully expect them to go back to 2 random indie PS4 games too, and I expect them to cut PS3 and Vita network features.  You're free to disagree, the good news is we'll see who ends up being right in about a year.

People complain about getting free stuff. What were you expecting? Shadow of the Colossus? Wolfenstein II? You pay the cost of one AAA game for a year and get access to all the online features and more than 30 FREE games a year, and it's still not good enough.

 

Not everyone plays games the same way you do.  I personally would prefer all games to offer offline only trophies (or do what ME3 did and offer an offline alternative for the same online trophy), and I would never touch the network, at all.  I don't like online gaming, but if I want to Platinum or 100% most of my games, I need access.  That access comes with a pricetag since PS4.  This is one of the main reasons I almost never subscribed to XBL Gold and eventually stopped gaming on 360.  IGC aren't free games either, as long as you pay, you get to play them.  Stop paying, and you no longer get to play them.  It's like calling PS Now free games, it's a misnomer.  And since there's no guarantee I haven't already played or don't already own any of these games, giving some arbitrary number of 'free' games isn't accurate either.  And lastly, since I only buy games once they've come down to ridiculously low prices (under $5), and I get to keep them forever since I almost exclusively buy physical, the pricetag for 2 'free', usually indie games, isn't worth it.  I was wondering why there were so many sales on a yearly PS+ card recently.  It's cause they wanted our money now before making this announcement.

 

Value in gaming is completely subjective to the gamer.  I'm happy for you, or anyone else who thinks 2 random PS4 games a month for $60 is a wonderful offering and money well spent.  For me, and others in this thread, and probably countless others out there in the world, this is not good news, and honestly a bad sign for where PSN is going in the future.
