I think it is good. They are good games. Of course not everyone is going to be happy and people may have the games (like me) but they have offered some good games.

First PS3 is doomed and now this. I suspect these articles will be popping up until E3

dangert124746d ago (Edited 4746d ago )

Depends
alot of you guys are saying people like me are ungreatful,this is not the case just appauled we are being offered what they offered us in there premium service we had to pay for...
imo it a flop

@zootang
fuck xbox live i'm on psn and a psn and ps+ member
imfamous i got of plus
wipeout i got of plus
lbp i got of plus
ratchet and clank was on plus
and so was deadnation as a discount

its like there trying to fuck over the early plus adapters not one game that weant on plus id be happy with a mini at this rate

zootang4746d ago (Edited 4746d ago )

I know of a paid service that offered less. I think it's a great offering. Plus we have choice which is fantastic.

FunAndGun4746d ago (Edited 4746d ago )

what premium service are you paying for that you didn't get reimbursed for?

If you are referring to Plus, you get 60 more days.

iamnsuperman4746d ago

You and I are getting our missing plus months back which is great. I got LBP free when I signed up, I bought Infamous, Got Wipeout free. I am happy because what I paid for is getting reimbursed with more than a month extra free. You can't really complain because what you end up with is a longer subscription than you paid for ie. getting more for your money. The games are a nice touch even though I got them before but I personal couldn't care because my subscription is being extended more than a month.

dangert124746d ago

@iamnsuperman & FunAndGun

you do realise that ever other plus member is getting that 60days so i did't even get a sign up bonus or i payed a discounted rate for a free game

nycredude4746d ago

zootang

judging by the disagrees alot of people forgot about th exbox live downtime and what MS gave to gamers for that. ONE game!

midgard2274746d ago

wait now people are complaining because PSN+ is better than xbox live/ because they got free games before? WTF do you want? a free ps3? would probably complain still,

i didnt see anyone complaining when MS gave away some crappy random Arcade game on their outage (dont care if theirs was shorter)

the fact iss that all of you people are greedy, if sony didnt offer games you guys wud just be happy that online is back up and got extra PSN+, but now that they are giving away games too you guys complain?

How bout you get over it and play the new games that are out today anyway? n4g is the minority of the population so those games will suffice just fine.

im guessing you guys would like sony to give away Infamous 2 right? freakin greedy whiners, i have all those games and i dont give a crap, theey were good games, Next time be telepathic and predict that this will happen

dangert124746d ago

this has nothing to do with xbox like i said fuck the xbox im complaining cause there giving me shit ive paid for in a priemuim service

nikoado4746d ago

@ dangert12

"you do realise that ever other plus member is getting that 60days"

It's my understanding that everyone gets 30 days of PSN+.

PS+ members were originally supposed to get 30 days AND the number of days the service was offline. Since the service was offline for like 25 days or something, the offer was extended to 60 days for plus members.

Oh come on! These articles are retarded serioulsy. Were getting FREE games just because the NetWork was down a few weeks. SO WHAT? there are more things to videogames than just "Multyplayer" maybe some people actualy realized that. "Oh wow I didt know This game had an awsome campaign" WAKE UP! play the actual game!

The fact that PSN is a free multiplayer service is a great gift, its been avaliavle since the begining, not like its XBOX LIVE where you pay to play then id complain.

So article "Writers" STOP trying to brainwash gamers into complaining about things especially when theyre FREEEE!!

mantisimo4746d ago

I'm not complaining about free things just the fact that I bought all these games at full price before ps+ came out and gave them away or discounts.

I would have been happier with a small credit in my wallet to choose from a greater range.

I agree its a fantastic selection if you don't own them or are a noob.

Joni-Ice4746d ago (Edited 4746d ago )

TOP! Its a great program. I own all five games but Im not complaining. The psp games are appealing to me also. I will pick up KZ Liberation and Mod Nation Racer.

EDIT: @ iamnsuperman...These articles are here to stay. They will never stop. Get use to it, I did.

Snake-eater4746d ago (Edited 4746d ago )

Top, I thought they would just give us a selection of PSN games, but credit to sony for giving full PS3 and PSP games

disturbing_flame4746d ago

I've never seen a game company giving such good games for a technical problem they had.

So i guess it's top, i don't understand the interest of the media relaying this could be a flop, i mean what are their interest to maintain this hate toward Sony now that the PSN is online ? Less click ?

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5089d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905089d ago (Edited 5089d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5089d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5089d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495089d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5089d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5089d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
