Lost Judgement is a great game everyone should play. Better than the first (also a very good game).
all meh except Sea of Stars. That game looks super dope
Lost Judgment isn't as good as the first game but it's still rock solid and it has some great minigames (just to cheekily counter @thefourfoldroot1's comment).
From the PS blog:
“ Lost Judgment once again puts players in the sneakers of lawyer turned street-fighting detective Takayuki Yagami. Joined by his partner, ex-yazuka 😂🤣Masaharu Kaito, the crime-fighting duo is called on to investigate a seemingly perfect crime whose lead suspect has an airtight alibi”
Will probably try Spellforce 3. Otherwise meh month for me.
Are you effing kidding me? I bought Lost Judgement last week on the sale...come on 😑
The medieval remake kind of destroys the purpose of the psp version lol, not to bad was hoping for resistance retribution this month
@Vovander
Erm, yes, that’s an accurate if rather basic outline of the concept.
I might try spell force 3. Not generally a genre I go for, but it seems to be all mages and fantasy, which is right in my wheelhouse.
Glad I didn’t buy Witch Queen on ps… I guess? Throwing expansions out as full game additions is kinda trash.
I think this is a great month, nice selection of games in my opinion, I do have lost judgement though, its great.
Nothing for me here, as usual.
One of the worst month for me personally.
Get to try Cursed to golf which is good
@thefourfoldroot1 FACTS
@thefourfoldroot1
I was referring to their spelling of “yakuza” specifically - someone might lose a finger over that)
MediEvil: Resurrection and Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice for me.
Premium is starting to improve a bit.
Midnight Fight Express is superb if you havent tried it out 👍
Kind of a weak month for me personally outside Sea of Stars but the last two months have been great and I'm going away on vacation without a console for 11 days so it's not a huge deal to me. I'll just play more VR or one of the previous month's games
Looks like Sony is getting more aggressive on their day 1 releases.
Sea of Stars is my most anticipated game in a very long time. I can’t wait to play it. Also, Midnight Fight Express is pretty fun. I definitely recommend it if you’re into light hearted beat-‘em-ups.
Digging the Premium games this month.
@thefourfoldroot1 Agree. I also admire the topic they chose. Bullying isn't used much in story telling in video games. That's brave and out of the box thinking. I respect that.
Super hype for Sea of Stars. Also pretty interested in trying Cursed to Golf and Two Point Hospital out, both games I likely would never have bought.
Hmm... Suspicious 👀
I forgot I still need to finish Judgment 😅 I kind of fell off it because I got a bit bored of the actual city being very repetitive, despite really liking the game overall.
Great month. Excited for Sea of Stars & will also be checking out Lost Judgment & Destroy all Humans 2.
At least we seem to be pushing 3 retro titles a month now. Eventually we could end up with a decent retro library on premium. Im just hoping that we get the PSP version of Everybodys golf sometime.
I'll play Sea of Stars for sure.
Midnight Fight Express looks fun, I was always kinda curious about that game. Might also try out some other stuff on the list, like Source of Madness.
Lost Judgment is awesome but I already 100%'d it. Great new catalogue title for people working through the series, though.
I think that kind of lineup regarding day and date to a subscription is ideal. Smaller titles such as Sea of Stars and Moving Out 2. Just like Stray back then. They definitley don't cost as much as a triple A game to get for the subscription but still good quality to entertain the subscribers to main the subscriptions.
I don't like it when people come on here to moan about the selection, so I'm just going to end this comment now.
I'll play Sea of Stars for a couple of days before getting lost in Baldur's Gate. Nothing else for me.
Sea Of Stars in really excited for but also Moving Out 2! First game was a lot of fun.
May try a few others.
Midnight fight express is a great game everyone should try it
Is Lawn Mowing Simulator like PowerWash Simulator or different?
So we're all just ignoring the fact that Dreams is both in the Essential and Extra tiers this month?
Lots of good stuff here for me.
Sea of stars looks great.
Two point hospital will be excellent.
Lost judgement is one I want to try.
Cursed to golf is another on my list.
Tbh, I'd try most of the rest to if I get a chance.
This is another good value month for me, yey!
Moving Out 2 nice! was going to buy it anyway. Sea of Stars looks cool, will definitely play Lost Judgment and check out DAH 2 remake. Good month!
Premium seems to be on a roll for the last few months. Really enjoying the classics that I've seen added recently.
@thefourfoldroot1 @ShogunRok
I will agree with both of you.
The Story in Judgment is best... but the gameplay and mini-games are better in Lost Judgment.
Also Lost Judgment has the entire School Stories thing going on which is like a second game built into the first one.
@MikeOrator That's a very fair assessment.
I can’t ever get into Yakuza games and that seems to be the one everyone is heralding. The rest of it looks like scrapings from the floor of a carpenter’s workshop to me
Really enjoyed Judgement so I'll download the sequel sometime next year after I'm done with the upcoming mammoth new games next month.
@Vovander
Oh, didn’t notice that! Lol
Kind of meh but overall they have been adding a lot of good games this year so as far as I am concerned there is nothing to complain about. Premium is still garbage and I unfortunately just renewed it as I forgot to change plans before the renewal.
Yep. Lawn mowing seems to be the choice this month.
I already own Lost Judgment so a bit of a bust all round. Sea of Stars looks decent at least.
This is the first playstaion plus month... in essential and extra games... not 1 to play... not 1
Source of Madness is the perfect PS Plus offering. Game looks great, but you never know until you try those types of side scores if they're good. Moving Out 2 will probably be fun on the couch with a buddy so I'm happy there, too
@KnightRider1982 I’d say different
Man I was really hoping Sony was greedy enough to get Twisted Metal 3 and 4 up on the service to take full advantage of the new show lol. Especially when they went out of their way to make sure we have full access to the entire Syphon Filter franchise that no one really cares for anymore.
@bindiana It’s a tough game but I really got invested in completing the thing, which is rare for a roguelite. The bosses will cheat and screw you over, but the game allows you to cheat back as well.
Second garbage month in a row. Not what we were used to for Extra. But well, I won’t have time to play them anyway with all that’s coming out in the coming months.
Not a brilliant selection of games. First time my extra sub has been a bit naff but hey with diablo 4 consuming every spare hour i have and lies of p and lords of the fallen arriving very soon its no biggie.
Nothing of interest. Glad I'm dropping back down to Essential later this month.
For me a very strong month. Love it
That’s funny. I just took Lost Judgement off my wishlist yesterday because it’s so expensive and I thought I’d never get around to playing it anyway.
@Hundred_Hand_Slap i already own majorly of the list on plus extra, disappointing month for me, maybe i will give that RPG a download chance to see what it's like but that's it for me 😏
Two Point Hospital is fun....hopefully the far superior Two Point Campus makes its way onto Extra as well sometime.
Definitely downloading MediEvil: Resurrection and Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice.
Even worse than last month.
Spell force 3 and Two point hospital will hold me over until bg3 time.
Not much here to get me excited, maybe Lost Judgement if I were to ever play the first game. That new Sea of Stars doesn’t entice me but I haven’t really researched it very closely. Curious about Two Point Hospital because I’ve wanted to try one of these sim games like that.
Very excellent month if you're not a AAA-only gamer. If you are? Probably shouldn't subscribe to anything past essential.
The premium games are a bit odd imo you could already play the medievil remake on extra and ape escape ps1 had already been on premium. I feel like they could have gone with other psp/ps1 games tbh
Death's Door and Sea of Stars in the same month. Each of those will keep me busy for a long time. Plus lots of others I'd like to just goof around with for a bit.
Newly announced games are underwhelming imo. Seems like a bunch of Game Pass selections are wrapping up their time over there and coming over to PS.
Not much here for me personally, mainly because their kinda not too crazy cool or I already own the ones I already wanted like Lost Judgement (Which is fantastic btw. Highly recommend it after playing the original). Sea of Stars, Destroy All Humans 2, Two Point Hospital, and Cursed to Golf are all ones I wanna try though so not a bad month at all Premium also looks good this month as well
Midnight Fight Express is an awesome inclusion
MediEvil: Resurrection on the PSP has the brilliant voice over by Tom "Dr Who" Baker so it's worth it for that alone!
Would be interested if I didn't already have it on my PSP and Vita...
@DarkTron
This is to ensure that when this month passes, people are still able to claim and play Dreams.
There will be more PS5 users buying consoles later in the year and this allows them to try it out
Lost Judgment is absolutely brilliant, one of my favourite games. I highly recommend it
Sea of Stars is amazing. I got real Chrono Trigger vibes from the demo. Hoping the full game is something special. Other than that I stupidly bought lost of them on sale recently
So it wasn't a nightmare, this is actually the lineup.
I couldn't bring myself to finish Judgment. It's a perfectly fine game, but after storming through all of the Yakuza games, I think I had enough. There just wasn't enough new stuff there to keep me hooked, and the characters don't hold a candle to the originals. I'm happy setting aside PS+ for now, anyway, and buying games outright.
One of the weakes months. Midnight Fight Express was such a dissapointing borefest.
