Siliconera reports: "At the Taipei Game Show, Sony draped the curtains on a limited edition PlayStation 2 set to arrive in stores on February 4 in Asia. The new color, Aka Takara Kurenai, or (loosely) Crimson Red Treasure comes out just in time for Lunar New Year. While it superficially feels like the PlayStation 2's days are numbered since the PlayStation 3 is on the market, Sony's most popular console keeps chugging along.
Speaking of the PlayStation 3, Echochrome has a spring 2008 target in Asia. That's no where near as solid as the March 19 release date for Japan, but Echochrome is starting to blob around the world. Perhaps, Sony will announce a solid NA release date at Game Developer's Conference".
Alex S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Before Sony shuts down these stores, we wanted to give you a chance to grab the gems that will be lost forever. Here are five PlayStation games you need to play before they are gone forever."
Some of these digi titles need to be converted to run on ps5 games like the last guy will be gone now
In bad 720p streaming quality + we don't know how long Sony will allow PS3 titles on PSNow.
After all (and as far as it is known) they still use PS3 hardware for PS3 games. I really hope they use an emulator nowadays, but I don't think so.
Mulando don't know if you've used Now but games like that run fantastic lol. Playing Locoroco remastered looks damn near exactly the same as downloading. I know because I've played on my PC streamed plenty of times and you don't get a single artifact or feel delay. It really just depends on the title. Those ones are fine
Or...he's correct. They have telemetry, they can see how often people play old games. You people need to understand that if you go on N4G, reddit, FB groups, etc. to talk about games or keep up with games, then you are the hardcore of the hardcore and you makeup a tiny, TINY portion of the gaming public.
None of that is to say that I agree with taking down the stores or support Sony not doing BC for PS1-3.
But N4G PS gamers says people don't...only new exclusives matter
I really wish we got a Tokyo Jungle sequel with a bit more budget to it. That game was so unique.
It’s that time of the month again folks. The time where gamers collectively gather all over the internet to criticize what free games they get this month. So, who plundered the other’s fanboys for all their self-worth and gratification in life? Who was the victor in June? Let’s take a look.
Posted by Greg Lewickyj on May 31, 2016 // PlayStation Plus Content Partnership Manager:
PS Plus fans, we’re pleased to share with you two excellent PS4 PS Plus games for June.
First up, to help get everyone hyped for the NBA Finals, we’ve teamed up with 2K to add NBA 2K16 to the June lineup. One of the most critically acclaimed sports titles ever, NBA 2K16 has tons of great gameplay for everyone. With robust offline modes like MyCareer and MyGM, and deep online modes including MyTeam and MyLeague, there is an incredible amount of content to offer all types of gamers. So be the baller you always wanted to be and guide your team to the NBA Championship.
Awesome. Really enjoyed the game when I played the 4 day trial this passed weekend for free on Xbox Live, great that Sony is giving the full game with PS+. Also interested in Gone Home, very good month
Good to see NBA there, my son got the basketball bug with the play offs... Even though the Raptors were beaten by the officials and some team called Cleveland, he was still asking if he could stay up and watch the game last night.... i will surprise him with this.... finally get him off FIFA.....
Good to see they are finally listening and are adding retail boxed games and not relying on just indie titles.
They've released their share of boxed retail games...stop being a hater all the time bro.
Wow despite the recent resurgence in fanboytrolls moldybread successfully manages to keep his spot as most annoying contributor on N4G, I can't help but shake my head whenever I read his comments.
On topic, NBA was a really good choice for this month, even worth playing if you don't like Basketball.
@moldy
No matter where you are or what the articles about you stand manage to fling heat.
You are the definition of a hater....

81 ps4 games offered. how many were retail $60 games at one time? so why target me for being right and we all know ps4 owners and even the media have complained about how they are mostly indie games. it's time to celebrate, not get mad for speaking the truth.
@ kingthrash Not often enough. Coming from primarily a PS fan. (I just can't stop playing Mario, Zelda, Streets of Rage, etc!)
Personally I think Siren is the best game, it's really unique. It's the kind of niche game I really go for.

On topic,astro.turfing the NBA was a really good choice for this month, even worth playing,,,. i don't even ,.like Basketball.
Couldnt care less about NBA2k16 and Gone Home but am looking forward to play Siren and Echodrome
Funny.
Sony hasn't been giving out many AAA games....people rag on them....
Sony gives out a AAA game that's only 7 months old...you could care less.
I have never been that interested in sports games but from what I can gather NBA2k16 is really good game for those who like the genres. Good one Sony.
I will give "Gone Home" a play though since I do like Action/Adventure however, this game is classified as Adventure so that should be interesting. As for "Siren" on the PS3 and "Echochrome" (actually my wife may like that as well) on the PS4 -- give me a break there are only so many hours one can allocate to gaming and I have not even finished "Zombi" not to mention the other games I have. 😂
Sigh! -- Oh well back to Bloodborne. 😉
Gone Home is a really quick game and completed in a few hours but NBA 2k16 is a great pick up and makes it a good month
I have so little interest in sports games that I would actually prefer Goat Simulator.
Even if you don't like Basketball NBA2k16 is a great game, especially with some friends.
On the other hand Goat Simulator might be fun for a few minutes but believe me, you'll quickly feel stupid for enjoying this kind of entertainment. Though I guess it would be a better game for PS+ than Gone Home.
It's a 2 hour game though, at least with Goat Simulator it's a sandbox that's quite frequenty updates with new DLC etc.
I heard Goat Simulator was actually pretty good. I have to give it a try. NBA 2K16 is good (I already own it for my XB1). If I didn't, I'd probably get the PS4 version.
Id prefer goat simulator myself. None of my friends care about sports games so the playing with your friends part/argument is invalid to me as far as that decision goes.
2K16 is spectacular.
The ultimate team mode and rpg-like (Spike Lee directed) my career mode give dozens if not hundreds of hours of entertainment. Even if u are not a BB fan the my career mode is enjoyable. It has interactive cutscenes and rpg elements, u create your own character, it has multiple story paths with different outcomes. It's a lot of fun.
2k is coo...but spike Lee messed ot up...so much so made a YouTube video reviewing why it was so wrong and so bad and didn't make any since. After the story ends it's a great game tho.
Spike Lee is a racist piece of trash he pretty much did more bad for the my career than good.
My best friend's ex-wife makes $95/hr on the laptop. She has been unemployed for six months but last month her income with big fat bonus was over $14k just working on the laptop for a few hours. Read more on this site.... www.earnmore9.com
They were all announced. Echochrome PS3, Siren Ep 1-12 PS3, God of War Chains of Olympus Vita, Little Deviants Vita. It's on the official PS Blog.
Edit: Thanks for changing your link & adding the tags. This original posting linked a different site "Thisgengaming" with only the 2 titles listed, saying the other games were unknown. You can check it in their edit history.
Thisgengaming is worthless, about as needed as a hole in the head.
OT... Told my wife a couple weeks ago I should get a basketball game bc I used play them a lot. And gone home looks like a few hours of fun.
Yea, I'm real happy with this lineup. I haven't been into basketball much in a long time, but looking forward to trying one for the first time in years. Especially after seeing how highly rated 2K16 was. All of these games I'll give a go. :)
I can't say much for Thisgengaming. Not real familiar, other than a few articles I've seen posted here and there. I just know the article was already outdated when I checked PS Blog and posted the above comment.
Thisgengaming is hopefully pretty close to the next website being banned from N4G. Never before have I seen so much stupid clickbait like on there.
Thisgengaming has no clue as to what the hell they are doing. They just run with crap with out doing their research (you know, like what REAL journalists are suppose to do).
When we posted the story there was just the video out that only confirmed the two games at the time. The PS Blog post was posted after we posted our article.
I literally commented within a few minutes of you posting the article, the one stating NBA 2K16 and Gone Home, with the rest unknown. (It was at the top of the pending list for Approval) The PS Blog with all 6 titles was already up at that time. You couldn't double check PS Blog before hitting "enter" to submit? (Maybe they posted it while you were typing it up?) Talk about trigger happy! lol
I'm not going to call you worthless like the person above. I don't know you. I'm just saying in this instance, you really jumped the gun.
Really solid month. Even down to God of War... which is an interesting choice before E3... but I digress.
Great month!
Well even though I don't care about basketball much,.. Very happy to try it out,.. Apparently 2K16 is amazing.
Gone home is cool and all,.. (really wanted to play trough it,.. but would never buy it for 20 or whatever used to be the price on steam,..)
So I am pretty content with the offering. Wish I had PS3 still,.. Entire Siren is awesome as well.

and the red PS2 looks nice too lol
A red PS2 .. wow .... Japan has the friggin rainbow colors of the PS2 since 2003 ...
I want... :P~
Looks cool. Now the PS3 needs more colors.
I will buy that red beauty and probably never even take it out of the packaging.
No, maybe I will, but i will not connect it to anything.
Ok, maybe just connect it, but I won't turn it on.
Well, maybe it has a different startup screen? Ugh, what the hell. I might as well use it.
Looks luffaly!
