Great, a sports game I don't care about and a social justice walking simulator that takes 10 minutes to beat. If true its a weak month. Maybe NBA 2K16 will be fun with friends.

christocolus2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

I don't know much about gone home but NBA 2K16 is actually pretty good and I'd love to try it out.

gangsta_red2927d ago

NBA 2k16 is excellent and I just bought the game too. And I heard nothing but good things about about Gone Home.

Seems like a good month to me.

johndoe112112927d ago

@gangsta

You've heard nothing but good things about gone home???? Either all the people you know are sjw's or your friends have really terrible tastes in games.

Eonjay2927d ago

@johndoe11211

Personal attack not withstanding, the 'anti-SJW' crowd is more toxic than anything right now. It is just a game, normal people don't play games with the single objective of affirming a personal belief system. You guys and the SJW crowd truly deserve each other.

Great month by the way.

Ashlen2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

@Eonjay

Exactly.

bleedsoe9mm2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

probably allot of subs are due to be renewed in june , oh well for whatever reason its a good month for +

"It is just a game, normal people don't play games with the single objective of affirming a personal belief system. You guys and the SJW crowd truly deserve each other. "

Finally someone who gets it! I mean can these people not see they are fundamentally the exact same person that just happened to subscribe to different philosophies? They are essentially two sides of the same dickish coin. Just like the extreme SJWs don't want you to enjoy anything that doesn't fit their agenda, the anti-SJWs don't want you to enjoy anything that doesn't fit theirs. Majority of the time, neither crowd actually took the time to play the games they are raking over the coals, much less attempt to understand them in any sane & rational way.

Just play the games. Christ....we are talking about video games here, they are meant to be played, not stacked high enough to create your own personal soapbox to brow beat the masses from.

Kingthrash3602927d ago

This^^^^ guy gets it.
100% agree

Kingthrash3602927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

Am I confused or was gone home free already?
Edit : no I'm thinking don't starve....I gotta look up gone home
Edit 2: ok I remember now....it's not everyones cup of tea but got great ratings....I've never played it but will check it out now that it >>>might<<< be free

sonarus2927d ago

nba2k16 would be great. Sure basketball season is almost over but i think this would be the first $60 dollar title to come out on PS plus for PS4. For PS3 we got at least one of those a month and i have been generally disappointed with the PS4 offerings but this is a good sign they might turn the corner

mkis0072927d ago

Eonjay

Thank you! the back and forth between these 2 groups is excruciatingly painful to look at.

Ashlen2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

This is actually almost certainly fake. This is the same site and author that leaked the fake games for gold list.

http://gearnuke.com/games-w...

Clearly there is zero quality control.

bradleejones2927d ago

My Son likes Gone Home. I doubt it is free on PS plus, though. It was offered on there not too long back

Orionsangel2927d ago

Gone Home is a wander around game. You wander around looking for clues to figure out a mystery. There's not much else to say about it.

johndoe112112926d ago

@Eonjay
"Personal attack not withstanding, the 'anti-SJW' crowd is more toxic than anything right now."

So as far as you're concerned the people who are fighting for freedom of artistic expression, freedom to design and play any game that you desire, the freedom to buy and sell games anywhere that they are in demand, the freedom to express yourself verbally on the internet as long as it does not lead to actual physical threats or danger and who believe that we should all be equal are worst than the people fighting to ban video games they don't like, telling devs what they can and can't develop, fighting to get the internet censored and who believe that some people should have more rights than others? And all because we decide to call BS on a game that can be finished in 47 seconds and was falsely advertised as a mystery thriller but turned out to be a teen romantic walking simulator? Yeah.....that makes sense. I hope you don't say a word when the next GTA game comes out and they try to get it banned, or any game for that matter.

@jb227
"Just like the extreme SJWs don't want you to enjoy anything that doesn't fit their agenda, the anti-SJWs don't want you to enjoy anything that doesn't fit theirs"
BS. Where have you ever seen anti sjw's try to get games banned form being made or removed from store shelves? Telling someone that a game is crap is completely different than telling someone that they should not have the right to play a game. In what lifetime does that make any sense whatsoever?

nX2926d ago

Gone Home is not for everyone, it's a good experience but not much of a game. Still NBA2k16 would be amazing enough to forget about Gone Home, even if you don't like sports games you should try this one out.

XanderZane2926d ago (Edited 2926d ago )

NBA 2K16 is good, but I still like NBA 2K15 better. I actually don't have Gone Home, but I heard you can easily beat it in about 10 mins. You don't even have to search the whole house for clues to finish it. I keep getting Gone Home confused with Grow Home. I thought Grow Home was going to be free. In any case, I'll wait and see what's coming for PS3. I already own NBA 2K16 for my XB1.

yeahokwhatever2926d ago

Grow Home was free. I have it and its dumb.

"a sports game I don't care about", how dare they release a free game without taking your personal wants a needs into account.

Psytrix2927d ago

Technically the game is not free. Stop paying for plus and see if you can still access it.

TFJWM2927d ago

@Psytrix Technically it is free if you are paying to play online...

wellard2927d ago

How dare you ridicule his opinion? Just because he doesn't like sports games doesn't mean you can berate him. Child, you need yo speak to your parents about some upbringing.

MagicBeanz2926d ago

@ wellard

STFU and go crawl back in you hole kid.

MagicBeanz2926d ago

@ Psytrix

You're paying for Plus to play online, that doesn't make the game any less free.

Jyndal2926d ago (Edited 2926d ago )

@MagicBeanz, the game isn't free. If you cancel your PS+ subscription, you won't be able to play the game even in single player mode. You're basically renting it.

@jp227 i have to agree with you. I'm have enough with all this nonsense. Anti SJW or SJW, i'm just don't like it really. That's just make my head hurt so badly.

vanethe2927d ago

same I hope this is not true :(

JohnathanACE2927d ago

Wow, 40 dislikes? All I said was I didn't care about it since I'm not a sports person. I stand on what I say about Gone Home. And to people saying "don't complain about a free game" I pay for PS plus and this is part of the sevice. Not hating on the game I just don't care for it.

scark922927d ago

In your defense, It took me 3 hours to beat Gone Home, it is a short game.

Cartman551252926d ago

Gone Home had beautiful graphics and an engaging story. It doesn't shove tolerance down your throat at all. Don't be ignorant.

GameBoyColor2926d ago

yo, i don't watch basketball much, but I love the games. One of the best things coming from 2k.

magiciandude2927d ago

This is a good month for PSN+. I bought a copy of 2K on Black Friday for 20, traded it in at GameStop for more, then I'm getting it back, for free. That alone makes this month great for me. Gone Home is another game I want to play.

Igihara2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

The PS3 version of 2k :)

DualWielding2927d ago

sounds too good for it to be truth

Eidolon2927d ago

Because it's an AAA or you really want NBA 2k16?

DualWielding2927d ago

Because it'll be two games in the same month both of which actually look like they were made for the PS4... when PS+ since the release of the PS4 have been mainly about games that look like they were made for the NES

Eidolon2927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

Tropico 5 and Tabletop Racing made for PS4 and not PS3, and they look good.

nowitzki20042927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

Resogun looked like it belonged on NES? You might need some glasses.

Chumdiddy2926d ago

Yeah, it'd be another very good month for PS+ just when I was sure I'd not renew in August.

I've had it since day 1 and it's just been terrible so far on PS4. Yet, Tropico, Gone Home and 2K16 are the kind of titles we got on PS3 the first few years. I played the shit out of 2K14 when that was a PS3 PS+ title a fee years ago. I hope this is true!

I'm playing the shit out of Tropico, too. Debated buying it a few times so I hope the PS4 catalog has finally reached the size to start giving out games of this caliber. PS+ on PS3 was insane for the value it gave you! I get lowering it a bit now but they were giving out straight indipixel trash for these last two years on PS4.

SuperbVillain2927d ago

damn, 2k16? not bad at all. cant complain about that

nowitzki20042927d ago (Edited 2927d ago )

I hope its true. I already own it but a lot of my friends dont and it will make it even more fun. Besides that its already a great fun game that people should try out.

If its true have fun, you wont be disappointed.

Sunny_D2926d ago

Me either, I will definitely be downloading this game.

Kingdomcome2472926d ago

How much newer of a game do you want? Were you expecting DOOM and Overwatch this month on PS+? My word...

Sony shares big new PS Plus stat, but not the one we want to see

PlayStation Plus has improved the split of PS4 and PS5 players on its priciest tiers, but Sony continues to hide total subscriber numbers.

lol acting like it’s equivalent to ms numbers

Mr Logic17h ago

Uh...They're definitely not equivalent.

"Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service now has 34 million subscribers."

"the total number of PS Plus subscribers across all tiers was 47.4 million"

darthv7217h ago(Edited 17h ago)

That PSN number seems like it should be much higher... especially when you consider that PS4 alone has a sell through of over 117m. To not even be at least half that is rather interesting.

To the XB side, having 34m to an install base of roughly 50m (XBO sell through) or even 85m (360 sell through) is a greater percentage of unit to member ratio than PSN.

That's not the "gotcha" you think it is Darth.

Have you ever heard of a PC before? I hear they are pretty popular.

MS started lumping gold subscribers in with those GP numbers... keep in mind.

shinoff218316h ago(Edited 16h ago)

What. Definitely more os plus subscribers but that makes sense due to actual console sales

Darth the difference between the bases are huge your right but you gotta think. Ps players buy more games, where as the Xbox base relies on gamepass for their gaming. So it makes perfect sense

darthv7216h ago(Edited 16h ago)

What makes perfect sense though? You say PS players buy more games... so then logically there should be more PS+ subscribers given the increased number of online multiplayer games in the PS4 generation alone. The PS4 was the first time that + was required for online play much like Gold was for 360 users.

Keep in mind we are talking subscribers, not simply XB/PS users. I assume you meant to say offline single player games, which is most likely true as well. That gen also saw a significant increase in games with an online component comparted to the previous gen.

victorMaje15h ago

I for one will be going back to essential at the next renewal. When I feel a game is good & right up my alley, I’ll check trusted reviews & just buy it.

jznrpg14h ago(Edited 14h ago)

I have the top tier until 2028 as they gave me a massive discount for all the years I had left but I’ll most likely go to essential as well. I buy my games but my kids do use the service occasionally. They do prefer to own their games as well since any game can leave the rental service at some point and they don’t like that idea. They mostly use it to demo games then ask me to buy games if they really like it.

RedDevils10h ago

For me, I will cancel it all together but unfortunately I still have it till 2030 lol

meganick14h ago

I would like to see Sony add a fourth tier of PS Plus for people who just want to be able to play games online without any of the perks like monthly games, store discounts, or anything like that, and it should cost $20 annually, $30 maximum. There’s no way I’m paying $80 just to play games online. Even the original $60 fee was too much, and I would often wait for sales to re-up my subscription.

P_Bomb10h ago(Edited 10h ago)

Essential is too expensive, I agree. We’ve got one Essential and one Premium sub. Dropping the Premium when it expires.

gamerz7h ago

Just let my subscription lapse for the first time since 2010. Will sub again every now and then for a month or so to access my old ps+ games but for me it's the end of an era.

DivineHand1256h ago

Let those numbers continue to drop because it is now too expensive. $80 per year just to play online. I noticed they didn't offer any discounts on the subscription or controllers during this year's days of play for the first time in many years and they will feel it when people choose not to renew.

My subscription will lapse next month and it will stay that way until further notice.

KevtheDuff3h ago

There were savings on subs and controllers here in the UK? I bought a controller yesterday in the sale..
It would be weird if those deals were not in other territories too?

Okay. I was saying before in another article how SH2 looked better than the last trailer, which is true but damn this looks rough as hell.

I wanted RE4 / Dead Space remake quality

Cheat providers for competitive games should be illegal.

Rynxie1d 11h ago (Edited 1d 11h ago )

This is what developers and manufacturers should do. I know going after cheat devices/makers is a cat and mouse game, and cost money. However, they can get that money back by sueing these manufacturers of cheat devices. Take a page from Nintendo's playbook.
