Forums - Sony - If you're in NA and don't have PS+ ...

GET IT NOW.
So right now you can get infamous 2, LittleBigPlanet 2, Ratchet and Clank all 4 one<---(not that good), but by tonight those games will be gone and a new set will be Coming and these are even Better. PSN are changing the Instant Game Collection on PS+ and the new games are Uncharted 3, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, and LittleBigPlanet Karting will all be added to the instant game collection.
So if you live in the US or NA (probly) then go and get the first game collection before the second one comes out and you cant experience those great games.
Also all of the extra content for the weekly sales and there are deals going on as of right now for E3 2013 sale, and Deus Ex is part of the Instant game collection this week.
Sorry europe :P

Yeah, it would be a good idea to join now if those games interest you. I believe that you don't even need to DL them, all you have to do is add them to your DL list. You can even use the web store for that and add them from your PC. That's what I always do.



I'm gonna be honest here. I dont care for it.

1. I game at the sound of my tastes not at the sound of Sony offers. I find it very annoying to play in such conditions. (because i like to complete the games i have and with my back catalog the chaos would get out of hand).
2. Its a virtual library of games just like the Xbox one. There is no 24 hour DRM, but there is DRM on it. After you stop paying the ps plus you lose all you free games.

So, if i had to get it, i would get it for the discounts most of all and maybe for this "immersive multiplayer", but chances are i wont.

I think you are absolutely right, but here in the USA, the "sale" model commands a lot of power in the consumer's mind. I'm trying to stop buying shit I don't need, but it's really hard (and I'm quite frugal with my money to be honest). I try to tell myself that, "I don't need it; I only want it," and that I have plenty of other items that I've bought that grabbed my attention for a while only to buy something else on sale later. For example, I just bought this, but I don't need it because I bought this at the beginning of the year for $90, but there is a sale now, and I don't see monoprice repeate their sales quite often. And I sort of want TLoU now, but I know I should wait a year for the all the DLC & game of the year addition.

Buying for the sakes of buying can be an addictive habbit that I don't want partake in, but I see myself spend more than I used to before. Don't get me wrong, I have money to buy this shit and not be in debt, but seriously, I don't need any of this and I don't know how long they will hold my attention. I'm not even using my DSLR right now, and I paid a lot for that thing. *Sigh*



LOL. Uncharted 3 is going to be 160GB to download. By default, most PS3 gamers in EU won't be able to download it. Horrible size.

As for the other two games, I dont think anybody will actually care. PS+ only seems to be good once every other month.

You surprise me. I was expecting some hate replies to my post. Glad to see some pondering.

Sorry, I don't tend to argue agaisn't logical statements. I can question the logic, but not here because I understand it.

I don't care that you don't care this is not a PS+ discussion. It has been discussed to death hundreds of  times.

Well you are entitled to your opinion, I dont agree with it but i understand. Still you cant deny that atleast Uncharted and XCOM are still good games (or atleast well recieved). Still I feel like people should know about this before the other good games are shelved and won't be available to PS+ subsribers later on, and also it might not appeal to you but appeals to a lot of other people otherwise Microsoft would be trying to implement the same model with Live membership's.

160GB for the single player? How many Blu-Rays is that? Never played the game, but I doubt it's so big. If you meant 16 GB, then claming that "most PS3 gamers in EU won't be able to download it" has no factual basis, as there is only one model that won't be able to donwload it, and that is assuming that the owners have not upgraded their hard drive. Your two first statements simply make no sense to me. Care to explain?
