Both offer some good games this month. Great for those who own multiple platforms!

TGGJustin2615d ago

Agreed. Both are offering a good mix of AAA and indie games in March.

Who cares? Remember people your paying for the ability to play multiplayer really. Have been since the original Xbox, or PS4 with sony. Sony just started the monthly game idea as a way to get people to pay, and signify that it was coming.

They may try to offer better value, but at its core its to play multiplayer.

Cmv382615d ago

You do know , that Sony was doing monthly free games a while before the ps4 even existed?

psuedo2614d ago

Yes sir I am aware. Thats why I said "have been with the original xbox, or ps4 with sony."

Started paying for multiplayer on the ps4, but on the ps3 it was free. They just did the free games to get people to pay. To give value, because why pay when its free? Then with that fact back then you could assume the ps4 was going to have a subscription.

GearSkiN2615d ago

LOL Sony started the free games after the whole system came back from the huge hack that happen on PSN, they did it to grab customers back, and its one of the best thing that ever happen on online services that comes with free, then xbox joined a long.

TGGJustin2615d ago

Wrong. PS Plus started in 2010. The hack was in 2011.

Silly gameAr2615d ago

It started before that. Get your facts straight.

Rebel_Scum2615d ago

Hosting the infrastructure cost money. Because its online it should be free? Gimme a break.

GWG destroys PS+, if you're looking for past AAA experiences, as usual.

PS+ wipes the floor with GWG, if you want indie experiences, this month, as usual.

Same old, same old.

TGGJustin2615d ago

Tearaway Unfolded on PS4 and Earth Defense Force and Under Night on PS3 aren't indie games in case you missed that.

Ulf2611d ago

Lol. Sure. They also aren't AAA.

Major_Glitch2615d ago

At this point, does it even really matter who's "free games" are better? I doubt people base their decision to buy a console based on what games Sony or MS decide to give away for free each month.

Kiwi662615d ago (Edited 2615d ago )

Yet no one has ever said that is the reason why they brought a console as its other factors as to their decision

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for March 2017 any good?

Neil writes - "A new month is on the horizon and that means four new free Xbox games will soon be available to download - at least if you are the proud holder of a valid Xbox Live Gold membership. But after a fairly solid couple of recent offerings being sent our way, do the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for March 2017 deliver the goods?"

Again, any month with AAA games is good and a win for CONSOLE GAMER'S.

Nice. I finally get to try out Evolve and Layers of Fear also I never played borderlands 2 so it's all good.

Kribwalker2626d ago

Back to back solid months. The player base in evolve will jump up now that it's free

Sureshot2626d ago

Agreed! Subscription paid for in a single month!

XanderZane2626d ago

Yeah, I wanted to try Evolve, but wasn't going to pay for it. I was wondering if anyone was still even playing this game. Already have Borderlands 2 and Heavy Weapon. Not really into horror games like this, but maybe I'll check it out.

lxeasy2626d ago

Can't wait to get back on evolve and I will definitely be playing borderlands 2with friends, haven't played the other games. Hope the good as well

boomtube19872626d ago (Edited 2626d ago )

Why does M$ continue to give away AAA games. At this rate they will get bankrupt. Non AAA indies and side scrollers is what the masses want right?

JasonKCK2626d ago (Edited 2626d ago )

3 games I don't own, nice. $100 worh in games in one month.

gangsta_red2626d ago

That is an awesome month for sure!

Paytaa2626d ago

I have them all except Evolve so I'll probably check it out. Very solid month.

slate912626d ago

Finally get to give Evolve a fair chance

MaxiPower902626d ago

Waiting for a game to go free is not exactly giving it a fair chance lol. That's like waiting to its in the bargain bin and then saying how you supported the devs by buying it.

slate912625d ago

I see what youre saying. How about, give it a fair chance with my play time.
