I suppose I'm ok with this update. I don't like playing games that are too hard but I have been wanting to give Demon's Souls a shot. Labyrinth Legends and Malicious look pretty cool.
I really enjoyed Critter Crunch when it was free back in 2010. Closure looks pretty cool so I'm happy but I sure do hope they give us an awsome full PS3 game next week.
@JayArr On the xmb go to Account Management -->Transaction Management -->Services List. Select Playstation Plus twice and it should show you the expiration date.
I tried Foosball with the Move control and never made it past the tutorial. I just couldn't get the hang of it so I'll have to give it another shot with the dualshock3.
I suppose we can't get the epicness of Foosball every week. Ninja Gaiden is ok but it hasn't really grabbed my attention since the old nes/arcade versions(sorry Slapshot). I don't have a Vita yet anyway so nothing for me this week.
I hope I'm proven wrong but I seriously doubt the US will be getting this. We might, however, get lucky and get a discount on it in the next couple months.
I personally feel like I've gotten more than double my money's worth with PS Plus and will definitely be renewing my subscription. That doesn't mean I'm going to be happy with every single update. It's unreal to expect AAA titles every week but as Plus subscribers I feel it's our duty to give our feedback and let Sony know when we're happy with updates. They're testing out different games in different regions so how are they going to know what games we want if we don't speak up. That's why I make it a point to vote on the Plus update polls every week in the PS Blog.
Just like with NBA Jam, I'd rather get some free avatars or themes than Mega Man.
@Splat I doubt we're getting Batman for free anytime soon(if at all) since they offered it at a discount. I hope I'm wrong but I have a feeling we won't be getting anything worthwhile until Spring.
Screw getting Batman for free. We get it discounted. How awesome is that? I'd rather get some free themes or avatars than something like NBA Jam. I take this as a sign of what to expect from SCEA this year.
@Squiggle55
Supposedly the servers for NBA Jam go offline Jan. 11th so jump online while you can.
Awww man! I saw BreakQuest & Wizorb on the list and decided this was the day I was finally going to give in and create a FB account. That is until I got to the EU part. SCEA has sure been giving us a lot of love these past few months.
I've wanted Quantum Conundrum since before it was released so I can't wait to finally play it. This is why I no longer like to buy PSN games. I totally would've bought this day 1 but I'm glad I waited.
@Splat Me too. I actually have 2 copies of it since I had to buy the gold edition in order to use the Move controls. At least I can sell my gold edition now just like I did with Borderlands goty.
This steelbook is getting a lot of hate on the internet. I personally don't think it's that bad even if the art style is a little funky. Kratos looks weird but he also looked weird in the ads for this game.
I actually used to spend a lot more money in the PS store before I signed up for plus. I got tired getting free games I already bought so I just stopped buying psn games.
I'm glad that we can now see all of our synced trophies even when playing on a 2nd console. Like others have mentioned, I would like the trophies back in the games section but it's not a big deal.

Re: Five Things You May Not Know About the PS4's Controller
I already charge my DS3 overnight using my cable box but I'm glad it will be possible to do that on the PS4 console itself.
Re: Talking Point: Should Sony Double Down with a PS4 and Vita Bundle?
I don't have a Vita yet so I'd definitely buy a bundle as long as it isn't too expensive.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue One
I wanted to play but my DVR is so full I basically just spent all weekend catching up on some shows(mostly Merlin).
Re: PlayStation Network Scheduled Maintenance Times Revised
I just hope I'm able to renew my Plus subscription before the store updates tomorrow otherwise I'll miss out on those 3 extra months.

Re: Zen Pinball 2 Finds the Force, Loses It Again
@craigun
I don't see it happening but that would be sick!
Re: Guardians of Middle-Earth Free for NA PS Plus Subscribers
I love LOTR and was jealous when EU got it free so I'm happy.
Re: Which of These PS4 Controller Mock-Ups Is Your Favourite?
The first one isn't too bad. It basically looks like a dualshock with an added touch pad.

Re: Sony Bundling 3 Month Bonuses with Annual PS Plus Subs
My subscription ends in April so I might have to take advantage of this.

Re: New PS3 Super Slim Colours Strut Their Stuff in Japan
They should release limited edition versions like Microsoft does with 360s. I'd love a Star Wars or God of War PS3.
Re: Review: escapeVektor (PlayStation Network - Vita)
Sounds awesome! A PS3 version would be nice.
Re: Darksiders Brays onto North American PlayStation Plus
I'm definitely happy with Darksiders.
Re: Classic White PS3 Coming to North America on 27th January
It's nice to have a new color but I'll stick with black.

Looks weirdly intriguing.
Re: Review: Big Sky Infinity (PlayStation Network)
This looks really awesome!
Re: Fez Is Finally Coming to Other Platforms in 2013
I don't own a 360 yet so I'm hoping to see it on PSN.

Re: NA PS Plus Subscribers Nab Retro City Rampage
Yesss!! I was still kind of hoping for Batman or Red Dead but I'll definitely take Retro City Rampage.

Re: Labyrinth Legends Crawls onto PSN in Time for Christmas
This looks fun.
Re: Sonic the Fighters Sours the Japanese PSN This Month
I've never played Sonic the Fighters. Sounds like I've been missing out on an awesome game. Lol!

Re: Future Publishing Shutting Down PSM3 Magazine
Another one bites the dust.
Re: Grand Theft Auto V's Open World Is Big Enough for Planes
Bigger than all those games combined? This game is gonna be huge!

Re: Sony: Sackboy Is Becoming a PlayStation Icon
My dad isn't a gamer but even he likes Sackboy. He wanted me to give him the Sackboy plush that came with the LBP2 collector's edition.
Re: Gran Turismo 5 Races Past the 9 Million Sales Milestone
This game is awesome! I just wish I had a racing wheel to get the most out of it.
Re: This Russian PlayStation All-Stars Commercial Shows Fat Princess on the Throne
I liked it.
Re: Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition Haunts North American PlayStation Plus Update
@Splat
Me too. I actually have 2 copies of it since I had to buy the gold edition in order to use the Move controls. At least I can sell my gold edition now just like I did with Borderlands goty.
Re: Rumour: Amazon Outs PlayStation All-Stars Steelbook
This steelbook is getting a lot of hate on the internet. I personally don't think it's that bad even if the art style is a little funky. Kratos looks weird but he also looked weird in the ads for this game.

I actually used to spend a lot more money in the PS store before I signed up for plus. I got tired getting free games I already bought so I just stopped buying psn games.
Re: Crysis 2 Is Europe's Next Free PlayStation Plus Giveaway
Oh yeah? Well.....we got NFL Blitz in NA so .........I'm crying on the inside .
Re: PlayStation 3 Owners Revolt Over Firmware Update 4.30
I'm glad that we can now see all of our synced trophies even when playing on a 2nd console. Like others have mentioned, I would like the trophies back in the games section but it's not a big deal.
Re: 300's King Leonidas Charges into God of War: Ascension
I already preordered from Amazon so I hope he'll eventually be available as dlc.
Re: The Walking Dead's Collector's Edition Is Surprisingly Large
I've wanted to get the comics for some time now so this is pretty cool.
Re: iam8bit Hosting Stylish PS All-Stars Jamboree This Week
Yeah they might like the complimentary drinks so I'll have to see if they're up for it.
Re: iam8bit Hosting Stylish PS All-Stars Jamboree This Week
Man I wish my friends liked gaming as much as I do. There's no way I'd convince them to go to this unless it was for Madden or some other sports game.
Re: PlayStation All-Stars Beta Begins This Week for Plus Subscribers
Looking forward to it!
Re: Review: LittleBigPlanet PS Vita (PlayStation Vita)
Great review, Sammy! I'll be getting this for sure when I get myself a vita.
