by Dean Shimabukuro:
"Welcome to another Games with Gold reveal for Xbox One and Xbox 360! In March on Xbox One, take to the sea and save the world with Finn and Jake in Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion, then it’s an all-out vegetable and undead battle extravaganza in Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2. On Xbox 360, and Xbox One via Backward Compatibility, command the elite Delta Squad against the vile Separatists in the classic Star Wars: Republic Commando, and then prepare to wield Raiden’s devastating katana blade in Platinum Games acclaimed action game Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance."

Star Wars Republic Commando and Metal Gear Rising Revengance are great games in my opinion.

Notellin1906d ago

Both great games. PVZ2 is also a really good shooter for kids to play and it's fun for adults. I let me nephew play and it's a blast honestly.

People can hate and we can argue versus PS plus all day but this isn't a bad month overall.

AngelicIceDiamond1906d ago

I find it sad we have to revert to playin 6th gen Star Wars in order to play good Star Wars game. The current Star Wars product sucks.

Sciurus_vulgaris1906d ago

@AngelicleDiamond I agree. I skipped Battlefront (2015) because its beta was boring and it lacked content. Additionally, Battlefront 2 (2017) is the only game I have ever refunded, despite paying only $13 Canadian Dollars for it.

Iceball20001906d ago

I’m just laughing compared to PSPlus.

BizarroUltraman1906d ago

You act like PS Plus was always giving good games.... there was a time gwg was kicking butt. but yeah that didnt last.

gamer78041906d ago

yikes, thank goodness I'll be busy with black desert online.

LucasRuinedChildhood1906d ago

Well. PS Plus won pretty handily this month.

Republic Commando and MGR are really amazing games, Plants vs Zombies GW 2 is also great and i i would much rather have that instead of CoD zzzz. Gotta give it to gold this month.

IamTylerDurden11906d ago

Are u kidding? PS+ has easily been better this month and march. Honestly, the current gen games are infinitely more important than the last gen games.

PS+ received For Honor and Hitman this month, and if you want to brag about the PS3/360 offerings MGS4 while GWG got Curse of the Moon, Bomberman, and Rogue on 360. Rogue was a good 360 offering but PS+ destroyed GWG in February.

In March GWG received Adventure Time and GW2 on XB1. MG Revengence is a good 360 title but Modern Warfare Remastered and The Witness beat one good 360 game.

No Way1906d ago

Hey, why don't y'all just get both systems and enjoy both offerings? Ta-Dah. No more stupid bickering.

Grow up.

Said no one, ever... MWR is amazing, but the witness. I have no interest in a game that will put me to sleep.

Vasto1906d ago

LOL, with 2 games compared to 4?

gamer78041906d ago

while not a great month for xbox, this is easily the worst month psplus has ever had, instead of 4 games, you now get only 2 games for the same cost... objectively speaking since preference determines what style of games someone likes to play.

I thought it was a pretty decent month. I've been meaning to play star wars republic commando, never played it, and isn't plants vs. zombies 2 a dope coop shooter? never played that either, but i've always been interested. glad I don't have to spend money.

and revengeance is great for those that have never played it.

Tankbusta401906d ago

Yeah I've been wanting to replay metal gear rising for awhile! Now I'll get the chance

Knushwood Butt1906d ago

'Replay' being a key word here.

StormLegend1906d ago

Before people compare each online im. Just gonna say here that PS+ already had PVZ and MGR.

The Wood1906d ago

When did ps get metal gear rising. I'm in the eu, I don't remember that.

The Wood1906d ago

Oh. On the ps3. . . I was thinking I missed a ps4 version. Cheers

CaptainCook1906d ago

Before people compare each online... I'm just gonna say here MGR nd Star Wars is playable on Xbox One via Backwards Compatible program.

jagermaster6191906d ago

They got pvz2? No and Xbox already got the witness last year so...

Metal Gear Solid Can Work Without Hideo Kojima

There are more good non-Kojima Metal Gear games than one would realize. Scientifically, three examples prove a trend, and in this feature are three excellent Metal Gear games that Hideo Kojima did not direct.

I hope so, still cant forget MGS Survive , the first MGS game without Kojima involvement and it was a complete failure, the thing is Kojima way of thinking is outside the box and that's why their games 99% end up unique, original and a almost instant classic. MGS series are full of intricate things that somehows connects to each other, Lalulilelo, the Patriots, Outher heaven, Foxhound, PMCs , heck even Kojima manage to insert DARPA in there lol, a US government Defense Agency. So is really great MGS3 Remake is reviving the series but without Kojima who knows of the end result, I hope Konami have another or more developers insight their studios who can also think outside the box.

senorfartcushion348d ago

It actually can’t. But it won’t matter.

Kojima is Metal Gear the same way that Christopher Nolan is The Dark Knight, or David Lynch is Twin Peaks: The Return episode 8. Artistry is the creation of a thing from your own thoughts and feelings. Take away the original artist’s thoughts and feelings and you have a new thing entirely.

This isn’t going to stop the mega corporation creating a fake version and spending millions TELLING customers that it’s made with the same thoughts and feelings. The masses will buy the idea the same way the corporation will sell the idea.

just_looken348d ago

I guess everyone forgot metal gear solid rising was tossed to platnium games with a story script and that is it.

Z501348d ago

Kojima was involved in Rising tho

just_looken347d ago

kpjima just did the story everything else was platnium games look it up.

Hence i said script

neutralgamer1992348d ago

i think the bigger issue is whether or not Konami is actually interested in fully funding AAA games development. Even this remake is done by a studio not really known in gaming industry. Quality remake/projets vs cheap cash in quick releases. Which way will Konami head. I am a huge MGS fan and i feel like Kojima did long time MGS fans dirty with how made MGS5 and it's story elements

senorfartcushion348d ago

Remakes and remasters provide a gateway through to producing AAA games faster and cheaper.

RaveTears348d ago (Edited 348d ago )

Actually MGS Portable Ops which was technically the first canon MGS game that Kojima wasn’t mainly involved with it. Kojima was only the producer but not the writer and director.

Konami did other MGS spin off that were successful but that because Konami put effort. Just along Konami is not lazy and cash grab, they can a MGS game without Kojima.

i mean sure, but he made it the thing it is today and why people love it so much.

i think its not easy to replicate.

Flawlessmic349d ago

I doubt it could.

Say what you want about the bloke, but his games are uniquely his.

I don't think anyone makes games like kojima does, for better or worse.

Could mgs continue without him, yea maybe, but it would lacking his genius so wouldn't be the same.

Soulsborne348d ago

Well , he already created it. They just have to recreate it? Not like its a new concept or IP. Trash article.

Terry_B348d ago

Yes. It only needs motivated clever people.

Why We Need Metal Gear Rising 2

Demand for a sequel is about to skyrocket, like the good ol' days of 2013!

In case you're living under a suspiciously rock-shaped object, the recent PlayStation Showcase revealed that a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be coming, alongside a Master Collection of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3. While it is a remake of an existing game, there's a great deal of significance to it, considering the last time a game in the series came out was back in 2018 with Metal Gear Survive (and the less said about that, the better). Konami's decision to pull a Konami and feud with series creator Hideo Kojima has long left the fate of Metal Gear uncertain, but this recent announcement has led to all bets being off as to where Metal Gear can go from here.
