First X-Men, now The Simpsons. Can't wait to relive my arcade days again. I'm going to pump quarters into my PS3 to make it as true to the arcade experience as possible!
Capcom needs to get in on this shit pronto. WTB Dungeons & Dragons, Knights of the Round, and Saturday Night Slam Masters!
| MrBubbles said: how does sony pay for the games they give away? is there a large sum given to the publisher before its put up...or does sony pay them the full rate they would get if the game was sold...or do they give them some smaller amount since the users dont actually own the games? has sony said anything about how many subscribers they have? i assume it isnt overly huge but even so it seems like it could be expensive if they were paying out the full rate. |
I think they don't pay much for the content at all - in most cases they'll simply be swapping a free game for priority advertising on PSN. For example, after Castle Crashers was given away for free on plus, it appeared on the PSN front page. All the Telltale games get advertisement on launch as they give a lot to plus. I expect this giveaway of Far Cry 2 will see a big push for Far Cry 3's DLC on the PSN store or whatever else in the future.
Plus is just a clever way for Sony to monetize their adverts on PSN. You've got to also remember that offering a game for free on plus can be a great way to increase the games sales too - as the extra publicity / more adverts and stuff will sell more. Plus any DLC will sell for the game.

wait so all "free" games get taken away if you remove your PS+ subscription?
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
I wasn't keen on Far Cry 2 until someone on Youtube said it was basically Just Cause 2 in 1st person, is that true?
PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.
Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

I remember they had this at Chuck E Cheese, I would waste all my coins playing it.. this game was hard. |
Ah those were the days, but even The Simpsons game couldn't alleviate my fears of a murderous animatronic uprising that I was sure was going to happen at some point.
I am the Playstation Avenger.

I also thought Far Cry 2 was horrible all driving throught the same locations getting into random gunfights the story never got started for me and I traded the game in after trying to force myself to like it for a long time.
Simpsons game on the other hand the only game I ever beat in the arcade it was an awesome game. Def a download cant wait, hope it has trophies.
I remember being blown away when I saw this game in the arcade at the carnival back in the 90's. I didn't even play it. I just watched other people play it. It was like watching the cartoon. I'll probably give it a try.... Sad thing about getting perfect ports of these great arcade games from back in the day--they never look as good as you remember. I was really sad after I played Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and X-Men.
I watch a lot of videos on youtube, too. Rastan, Gladiator, Chase HQ, Robo Cop. They never live up to the memory.
