It's pretty bad considering I got free access to hundreds of deals on Steam without paying a cent.

PS+ owners are getting ripped off.

In Europe we got Ratchet and Clank All 4 One and Crysis 2 this month. And another little game called Cubix or something like that. Plus we got several quality Vita games like Uncharted GA, Gravity Rush, Mutant Blobs Attack and a new game called Chronovolt, which truth be told is pretty meh. But yeah in Europe we got some pretty decent content this month. Nothing wrong with R&C and Crysis 2 for free. Nothing wrong with that at all.

Sideways is really good, but I'm pretty sure it was a "free" PSN+ game in the past.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here though, didn't PSN+ have a major update last week including Vita games? The PS3 games last week were pretty mediocre (for the U.S., maybe better in Europe this month), but it's still pretty great week for those that have PS3/Vita.

My definition of free is paying no money to get something.

Your definition of free is paying a $50 subscription to get something.

As long as our definitions differ then I can't say I ever got Crysis 2 for free.

rented for a year would be more accurate because free is not. But is still a good deal since people beat most games in like 1 or 2 days and then they go back to play COD online.

SCEA/E made that pretty clear when they announced this was the month PS+ launches on VITA.

If you did not pick one up for the $170 USD asking price on Amazon's black friday deals, you are an idiot.

The problem with that deal, was it wasn't announced until a bit late, and so many of the other deals went into effect very early. I was going back and forth on which bundle to get, that I had already "blown my wad" by the time the "better" Vita deal was revealed. I bought the 360 bundle and a bunch of games on the Microsoft Store that were $9.99 - plus I bought a bunch of PS3 games and also Halo 4 at full price. That's just on myself and on games, nevermind other random stuff I was actually buying for others as gifts.

If I had known Vita bundle was $179 and TWO games, instead of $199 and ONE game, maybe that would have pushed me towards the Vita (especially considering I'm already a PSN+ member). But even though that $179 deal was mighty tempting, it's pretty hard to justify adding that one on there when I had already spent several hundred dollars on video games.

Leave to Sony to completely mishandle one of capitalism's biggest month of the year by allowing its "pay-for-coupons" service to stagnate at such a critical time. :|

I gave up trying to understand the logic behind a lot of decisions the heads of Sony follow because nothing they do ever makes sense outside of the realm of delusion cows live in.

They try way too hard to be "corporate hipsters" like Nintendo but they fail to understand what makes Nintendo successful and ignore the wrong people.

I think that deal was announced the night before black friday. Erm, probably leaked(?)

Sound like VITA was not high on your list of things to buy anyways. I guess I can relate, considering the things you bought (and if I where big into console games).

Yeah but obviously.

Steam > Xbox Live > PS+

Actually it's more like Steam > PS+ > Xbox Live Gold > PSN > Xbox Live. There is a lot more value for your money with PS+ than with Xbox Live Gold.

Yeah, EU Plus has had amazing content for the price. They're promising something big for December too "Finally, without trying to give too much away we have lined up a critically acclaimed AAA action-adventure title for your December headline game that we are extremely excited about." Maybe it'll make me resub finally.

Wow, you mean those games they're desperately selling at the lowest possible prices in stores? And themes and avatars?! Wow, gimmie a break, I can't believe people care about those things. I thought it was about gaming, not styling out your profile trying to look good.

There are much more games to choose from (IF2, Scott Pilgrim, RE5:GE, Payday,etc.). Stop cherry picking :?.

Of course I wouldn't resub for just one game, I'd resub because SCEE have shown consistent quality when it comes to sourcing stuff for the EU PS+ service and an interesting game in December would be another bullet point in favour.

That's not the whole month yo, they also got RE5 Gold Edition, Quantum Conundrum, and Dungeon Defenders for PS3. If you also have a Vita you get 6 full games for that. November was a great month for PS+. Not to mention the rest of the instant game collection is still there for late subscribers.

Nice try, but that pic is just for that week, not the whole month.

We already had R5 Gold edition and the PS:ABR beta, among other stuff earlier in the month.

Why would I be "trolling" when I have PS+? I'm not trolling, just a mistake on my part.

It's still a terrible week however.

Do you get Crysis 2 for free, no, then stfu !

enjoy your crysis 2, I got plus and all I got this month was re5:gold considering I have the original for both consoles (xbox, ps3), and the gold edition for xbox. this month wasn't worth it.
