    You can buy now and it'll add the 12 months on to the end date of your own subscription

    Pretty sure it'll go until Nov 2021. Once you add any months to your PS+, it stacks on top of however many months you have left regardless of how or when you purchased it.

    Bit early for that. Closer to the end of the month maybe.

    Would you prefer to know all the free games at the start of the year? or do you like the surprise element of every month.

    I like the surprise. They're the only presents/surprises I get these days anyway so might as well enjoy them!

    Saw an article there saying that we're coming up on the 10year anniversary of PS+

    I still remember hearing about getting announced and trying to figure out the catch in getting 2 free games a month (mind you at the time I thought it was you pick 2 games you wanted :P )

    I remember for the 5th anniversary they sent out a little plaque with your stats which was nice if you'd been a member the whole time, wonder if they will do anything if you've been a member for 10 years?

    Seen in a few places rumours of Crash Trilogy, RE7 and No Man's Sky as next months games. To be taken with the proverbial pinch of salt...

    NBA 2K20 is good but recently on sale for 3 dollars and 10 euro, you'd want to pump about 40 euro into it to get your player to an acceptable level if you wanted to play the online streetball or just have a good player in career mode.

    At least give Shadow of the TR. if it's a big anniversary.

    Erica looks reaaaallly interesting.

    NBA 2K20 was down as low as €4.99 a couple of weeks ago.

    I've gotten Tomb Raider multiple times for cents in bundles, NBA 2k20 is worthless

    I'm getting real sick of getting force fed american rubbiish like NBA and MLB as if anyone in europe cares but I guess it's indicative of sony as a whole these days

    Pretty disappointing alright. Anyone even remotely into basketball likely would have picked up the NBA game long before now given how often it's on sale, and the Tomb Raider game is so old the only one who'd be looking for it is Lara.

    Admittedly never heard of the third one, so can't really comment.

    With their big 10 year anniversary of PS+, it's a shame the thing I'm looking forward to most is the free theme.

    Wasnt there a Tomb Raider game for PS4 a few years ago on PS Plus?

    Where does this new game fit with that one?

    Looking at the list of previous games, the 2013 Tomb Raider which is a reboot was on PS3. This one is the 3rd in the reboot series. Rise of the Tomb Raider comes before this one

    It’s Rise that’s free this month. Shadow is the third one.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider is IMO all that’s wrong with AAA games. Stunning visually, but insipid design-wise - full of busy work, needless mechanical fluff, and so much dull, repetitive combat it becomes a farce. Also tries for the Naughty Dog style of storytelling, but falls far short.

    A bad game, TBH, although from what I’ve heard the subsequent one was even worse (albeit from what I can gather was a quickie sequel put together by a different studio).

    I played TR last year, thought it was ok for that kind of thing and honestly can't remember a thing about it (except that it's ok, I think)

    Rise was pretty good to be fair imo. I enjoyed it quite a lot. Somewhat disposable after the fact which maybe reinforces your point. Shadow was mind numbingly boring though and I'd argue was more like a game that you're describing. It was so bad at a few points that I was skipping dialogue just to move it on. Bland. Dull. Boring.

    Yeah the US stuff is dirt. You've hit the nail on the head though in that those with even remote interest would have it given the sales its been through.

    I'd love to see choices in PS Plus each month for each selection. Their back catalogue is huge they could easily give four games and you pick two of them.

    Bought NBA 2k when it was like 4 euro 2 months ago. I don't recommend it, like all the 2k games it just pushes that VC crap on you
