Popular Post eigen-space Posted October 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) PS+ Predictions Contest (2020) Welcome everyone to a forum game where your PS+ Game Predictions can actually win you something! As you may have guessed by the title, @DaivRules and I will be giving away prizes to users who have accumulated the most Prediction Points throughout the year. Each month, Sony releases approximately 2 games through PS+ for free! Users can name their 2 predictions for games up until Sony announces them in their blog. You will get points under the following conditions: 5 Points for guessing the Exact Game 3 Points for guessing a game made by the same Developer 2 Points for guessing a game published by the same Publisher 1 Point for guessing the same Genre Final standings: User - Total Points FilooGaroo 29 voodoo_eyes 27 kanzenchaos 26 Congrats to the winners! Interesting statistics: 25 Most predicted games through November (Game - Votes): Horizon Zero Dawn 76 Doom (2016) 49 The Order 1886 44 Marvel's Spider-Man 41 Crash Collection 36 Uncharted: The Lost Legacy 34 Celeste 27 God of War 26 Nier Automata 25 Watch Dogs 2 22 Resident Evil 7 21 Dishonored 2 18 Knack 2 18 The Last Guardian 18 Assassin's Creed: The Ezio Collection 17 Prey 17 Spyro Reignited Trilogy 14 Dying Light 13 No Man's Sky 13 Just Cause 4 12 Battlefield V 11 Hollow Knight 11 A Way Out 10 Dark Souls Remastered 10 Mass Effect: Andromeda 10 FAQ Who gets prizes? The 3 participants with the most points during January 2020 - December 2020 will be receiving prizes (TBD). We may also add in "Wild Card" prizes, which would be handled as a drawing. Note that this post is open for December 2019 predictions as a test run, but these points will not carry over to the 2020 contest. Which regions will this be covering? We will be looking at both the NA and EU blogs to determine the games. If there are different games between the two, any of the games will count. If a different region happens to release your game, you will be able to obtain only the +5 points for the exact game if you make us aware of the match. How long do I have to post my entries? You will be able to post your predictions for the upcoming month until Sony releases their blog post detailing which games are being offered. The event runners reserve the right to announce an early submission closure for any month due to leaks, so be sure to get your predictions in early each month! How are Genre, Publisher, and Developer determined? We will be going off of the information displayed here on PSNP. For example, Borderlands 3's genre is Shooter, developer is Gearbox Software, and Publisher is 2K Games. If the game has more than one listed for genre, developer, or publisher, you'll get credit if you have a partial match. In cases where PSNP does not have these elements listed, the event runners will research the games and make their determination. Do points stack? No, points do not stack. You will get the highest point value for each game that you guess. For example, despite that Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy XIII-2 are the same Genre, Publisher, and Developer, you would only get 3 points (rather than 6) if you guessed FFXIII when FFXIII-2 was the true release. The most points you can obtain in a single month is 10 if you predict two correct titles. Can I change my predictions? Please try not to change your predictions to save the event runners' sanity when keeping track of games. However, if you do decide to change your mind, make sure to do so before the blog post is announced. We will accept the most recent prediction. We will also check edit timestamps of posts to make sure they weren't changed after the blog release. Do I have to have PS+ to Participate? Nope! You just have to be a PSNP member with 25+ posts. Other Notes --If you make more than two guesses, none of them will be tracked. --If you don't guess a specific title, it doesn't count (ex-- saying "I'm guessing it'll be a shooter" doesn't count for anything). --If the event runners can't discern which title you're talking about, the event runners will not be held responsible if we pick the "incorrect" game (ex-- if you say Tomb Raider when what you really mean is Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition or if you say Doom, of which there are 2 distinctly different games called Doom). Best of Luck!

eigen-space Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 Just now, Roronora_Zoro666 said: Imma guess Nioh and Outlast 2 for November November's has already been announced We're opening up to December 2019 predictions, but as mentioned in the main post, December 2019 will be a test run. Points don't actually count until the guesses for January 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aecesaje_ Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Great competition, but I think there should be one more rule - If a game gets leaked, everybody that posts after the time of the leak shouldn't get points for that month (in that way you would avoid spammers and giving free points for the participants that just copypasted the leak) I will give my predictions later this month 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just now, Han_the_Dragon said: So, this was the different event that you were planning? I'm a little sad that's not a new themed trophy hunt, but it's an interesting take on something that kind of became a monthly ritual to a lot of people around here. I usually don't join the guessing threads, but I think that I can start now ? This wasn't the one that I was planning, but @DaivRules had the idea for this event. May still be doing another trophy-themed one 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can guess as far out as you want, just specify which months your guesses are for. Jan-Dec 2020 is the official contest. December 2019 is a dry run for the sake of fun.
