I mean it’s had its desired effect; I’ve downloaded games I wouldn’t normally buy. I don’t think anyone can say there’s ‘nothing’ for them - that simply can’t be true. It’s not an amazing selection as of yet but I do think PlayStation will be working magic behind the scenes and we will see a lot more in the future.
Great addition but the lack of downloadable Classics on the service is bad. They need to get this PS3 emulator and some additional PS1/PS2 games of note, fast.
@ChrisDeku yeah, this is what will be interesting. Third party like LEGO will be under 12 months I would guess. Also would be interesting to see if Sony move the goalposts dependent on success of service.
@Flaming_Kaiser All of these games are already out though. For instance, I’m holding off LEGO Star Wars and GT7 as I realistically believe they will come out in next two months. Even if they’re not first day releases, if I think it’ll release within 3 months on the service, I’d still be inclined to hold off buying.
I’m now dubious on purchasing games because of the not knowing whether they will suddenly show up on PS Plus. Wonder if others do the same and it dangers sales?
I think Microsoft have nailed it by detailing exactly what’s coming to the service so you can decide what to buy with the knowledge you won’t get it free a month later.
Given the time we’ve waited for the DLC, I wouldn’t be surprised if this DLC release follows a fairly quick turnaround of an RE9 announcement and I’m so pumped for it. This series is amazing at the moment.
I support the notion they are waiting for the team in green’s event tonight before they announce.
The entire PS Plus rehash has been appallingly advertised and handled. Sadly it appears they didn’t secure the kind of calibre of games they wanted to hence they’ve kept on the down low about it. Hope I’m wrong though.
Am I right in thinking Neil alluded to it being released sooner than next year? I had the volume down low but I’m sure he kind of stopped short of agreeing with Geoff it was coming next year?
Surely this is something that should definitely be on PS Plus Extra. It’s a first party but an old game and PS5 only. Sounds like it’s expensive in order to be free on the service and entice people to subscribe.
But in short, if it’s not on there, I’m not paying for that.
What I hate about this year is we had everything in February and very early March and now we’re just expected to look forward to PSVR2 (vast majority won’t buy one let’s be honest) and a half baked PS Plus service.
Not surprised these fake leaks are being made - a lot of bored people waiting for some release dates and new announcements.
Shall I sell my PS5 now or what? Not a single big single player story game, which Sony has done so well at, announced after GoW. Seriously getting concerned about the direction of travel.
Considering even my speedy wifi still can’t make Sony’s attempt at streaming games work, this isn’t heartbreaking for me but as I say, Sony need to do streaming better from the ground up anyway.
@PenguinLtd Ah but they did stop it. Also, stacking the current membership so you have it for longer or utilising a discount on a site is different from stacking from a previous system in order to financially gain in the future.
I’m taking a punt on this that they’ve tweaked the first game to launch with PS Plus’s classic games which is their contract with them and that the second game remaster will then be announced.
I think, given how long this has dragged on, there’s quite a bit of Silent Hill info to come…

Ooo never even heard of this - shall download! (Currently have about 9 games downloading.. sorry hard drive)

Re: A Handful of Games Separate PS Plus Extra, Premium Lists in USA, Europe
Metal Gear Solid or SOCOM. Give us what we want Sony.
Also, not bothered about us Europeans missing out on PS3 titles, I want downloadable games so doesn't bother me much.
I'm just missing Evil Genius 2 - can't believe it disappeared from the service.
Re: PSP Game Super Stardust Portable Joins PS Plus Premium
Great addition but the lack of downloadable Classics on the service is bad. They need to get this PS3 emulator and some additional PS1/PS2 games of note, fast.
Re: Reminder: PS Plus Extra, Premium Roll Out Across Europe Tomorrow
Descenders has confirmed it will be part of this regions lineup. Not huge news as part of US but worth noting.

Re: Reminder: PS Plus Extra, Premium Roll Out Across Europe Tomorrow
Bit disappointed that it’s appearing that over the months rollout there’s 0 updates to classics. Come on Sony, want some surprises tomorrow please!
Re: The Last of Us: Part I's Out of Stock PS5 Firefly Edition Fetching $450 on eBay
Yeah, I would have passed at this at the original price, let alone that.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Back on Top, 95% of Copies Sold Were PS5
@jgrangervikings1 You’re not wrong. 😉
Re: F1 22 Will Let You Feel Debris on the Asphalt Thanks to PS5's DualSense Controller
‘communicate individual chunks of surface debris‘
Yeah right…
Re: UK Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Back on Top, 95% of Copies Sold Were PS5
@KayOL77 The service hasn’t fully rolled out yet so facts are limited I’d argue.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 431
Horizon FW for the next few days before I get my grubby hands on this PS Plus shake up on Thursday.
Can we all channel some opportunistic energy that Sony with add some classics and Extra games this week.
Re: Resident Evil Village DLC Is Shadows of Rose, Out 28th October
Given the time we’ve waited for the DLC, I wouldn’t be surprised if this DLC release follows a fairly quick turnaround of an RE9 announcement and I’m so pumped for it. This series is amazing at the moment.
Re: PS Plus Extra, PS Plus Premium Now Live Across the USA
Add Metal Gear Solid and MGS Snake Eater you COWARDS.

Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest Live a Show to Remember?
Meh it was fine. Just what I expected to be honest. I’d rather have a large Sony showcase.
Re: Pricey Destroy All Humans 2 Collectors Edition Includes a Two-Foot Tall Crypto Statue
Would love to know if they sell all of the units for this. Who is spending that money on that, christ.
Re: F1 Manager 2022 Gameplay Revealed, Plots a Course to PS5, PS4 This August
This looks amazing, first day purchase for sure.
Re: Capcom Showcase Announced for 13th June
Exoprimal is going to be the marketing equivalent of Deathloop isn’t it?
Re: Gotham Knights, Modern Warfare 2, Cuphead DLC at Summer Game Fest
I pray for some Bioshock news this week.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for June 2022?
This is an awful selection but hey, I just want the official PS Plus lineup for the UK.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Update Makes a Huge Improvement to Performance Mode on PS5
Finally finished Dying Light 2 so was out of this or returning to Cyberpunk. After this news, it’s time to start this beast, woo
Re: Stray Jumps Straight to PS Plus Extra on 19th July
This is great news. I’d really love to see F1 Manager go straight to this service too given it’s first of its kind.
Re: It Must Be Summer, Because Clearly Fake State of Play Leaks are Spreading on Social Media
What I hate about this year is we had everything in February and very early March and now we’re just expected to look forward to PSVR2 (vast majority won’t buy one let’s be honest) and a half baked PS Plus service.

Re: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Revealed for PS5, Out Next Year
PS5 being fully utilised now; love to see it.
Can’t wait for this, hope there’s less worlds to visit (rather more differing terrain to explore on the same planet) and better story.
Re: Sony Pictures Eyes Director Neill Blomkamp to Steer Gran Turismo Movie
Films, mobile gaming and live service games.
Shall I sell my PS5 now or what? Not a single big single player story game, which Sony has done so well at, announced after GoW. Seriously getting concerned about the direction of travel.
Re: No Man's Sky Now Has Its 20th Free Post-Launch Update
Really wish you could start this game and skip the tutorial. Only reason I’ve never returned to this game as the tutorial is too long winded.
Re: Deal: Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7 Both Below £50 in the UK
I’ll wait for GT7 to either get a free trial or be placed for free on the new PS Plus service. Got Horizon already, great game!
Re: Like PS Now, DLC Won't Work with Streamed Games on PS Plus Premium
Considering even my speedy wifi still can’t make Sony’s attempt at streaming games work, this isn’t heartbreaking for me but as I say, Sony need to do streaming better from the ground up anyway.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy on PS5 Makes You Feel Like Harry Potter
A small part of me is putting a small bet on this being one of the first third party first day releases on the new PS Extra service.
It’s a small part and a small bet. Very small.
Re: PS Plus Members in Asia Irate As Sony Wipes Discounts on Tier Upgrades, Demands Upfront Fee for Stacked Subs
@PenguinLtd Ah but they did stop it. Also, stacking the current membership so you have it for longer or utilising a discount on a site is different from stacking from a previous system in order to financially gain in the future.
That’s my view anyway.
Re: PS Plus Members in Asia Irate As Sony Wipes Discounts on Tier Upgrades, Demands Upfront Fee for Stacked Subs
Controversially I agree with the stacked approach - Sony never said that option could/should be used so people used it at their own risk.
As for the discounts that Sony have given, that’s just plain ludicrous.
Re: Sony Prioritises 'High-Caliber Games' for PS Plus Extra, Premium
@LiamCroft ah yes, been a busy 24 hours so had completely forgotten this ha!
I take my comments back!
Re: Sony Prioritises 'High-Caliber Games' for PS Plus Extra, Premium
Gone really quiet about this demo trials haven’t they?
Got a feeling as it didn’t get the developer excitement they thought it would they are going to go silent on it and eventually phase that out…
Re: Resident Evil 3 PS5 Upgrade Could Be Close to Release
Now this IS exciting!! YES!
Re: PS Plus Games for Asia Officially Confirmed
@get2sammyb Difficult day in the office hey? Haha
Re: PS Plus Games for Asia Officially Confirmed
Nice selection but am I sold? Not sure.
Re: PS Plus Premium's PS1 Games Have Separate Trophy Lists for PS5, PS4
Give me a full games list Sony, NOWWWWW
Re: Third Party Publishers Probably Ditching Their Own Events This Summer
Can’t be the only one watching this website exclusively for PS Plus news… right?
Not surprised by this news, one big event will always pack more punch for developers.
Re: Spider-Man Games Could Have Been Exclusive to Xbox
Well, thank christ Microsoft messed up.
Re: More PS1, PSP Games Launching on PS Plus Premium Revealed
@would_you_kindly @milktastrophe I don’t own PS Now but according to Push Square’s list MediEvil definitely isn’t part of the range available?
Re: More PS1, PSP Games Launching on PS Plus Premium Revealed
@Liverbirdsarego Yes! That’s the one! Great game.
Re: More PS1, PSP Games Launching on PS Plus Premium Revealed
So far none of these have my interest. Where’s MGS, where’s SOCOM, where’s that skeleton game from PS1 (can’t remember name). They were classics.
Re: New PS Store Weekend Sale Has Lots of Cheap PS5, PS4 Games
I’ve just realised Sony are delaying this full list of titles in the new PS Plus lineup so they can sell them in sales and generally.
And that realisation has irritated me so much.
Re: Sony Reveals Vision for the Metaverse
Forget all this - what happened to that Discord partnership? Shouldn’t that be the connection between communities they should be focusing on?
