Think that's a great month was tempted to buy man eater many times , Have heard greedfall is a decent game too and you know exactly what your getting with Lara you either like it or not

Shadow is a good game ruined by pointless fluff and side quests. Apparently if you stick to the main story it's not too bad, but I got bored of it very quick.

Maneater has potential, but the initial fun wears off quickly. Bought it on sale, played a couple of hours and haven't touched it since.

Greedfall, again has potential but the travel time put me off, and its a bit janky. Needs a bit more polish really. It's not bad, but to me didn't feel different enough to other similar games to make me continue with it.

Probably not a bad month if you've never played any of them before.

Sums it up well. Tried one side mission, hated it. Stuck just to main quests then and enjoyed it till the end. Should stick to what it's best at, good action linear game, rather than adding pointless open world type fluff. Imo...

Thought Shadow was over of the most pointless and disappointing games I've played.

That's what the reboot was like. It was way more concise and then Rise was just a bloated slog.

I just want to play TR2 again with modern graphics. Venice is forever etched in my mind!

TR 1 and TR 2 in current gen graphics and mechanics would be glorious. I'd love to even pay Anniversary (remake of 1) again, would be great to get an Anniversary edition of 2 but don't think they'll ever go back from their current form.

Had my psn plus 12 month sub auto renew and got a 12 month code as a gift afterwards. What/where is the best way to go about selling the code on?

You can stack it and have two years of ps plus.

I've finally got around to setting up my PS5 , Haven't been using my ps4 at all , I have an Irish , UK and US accounts , I've only ever had PS Plus on my Irish account which is out , Is it possible to just buy a 12 month US sub from CD Keys and activate it or is there messing about using a VPN ect ?

If you get PsPlus for your US account you will lose access to any ps plus game you redeemed on your Irish account, better off staying with the one region for PsPlus

No vpn required, you can just add US PS+ by signing in and redeeming on the US account. You will lose access to your previous PS+ games if you had it for another account though.

Make sure the PS5 is the Primary console for the US account and the account you want to play online with.

Last hour to pick up Bugsnax for free if you forgot previously!

This month's games are now available

The Playstation Store website is absolutely chronic. Trying it on Safari and Chrome and I can't add the games to the cart because the action buttons aren't appearing and can't even sign into the site on Brave.

had to go into it, on chrome, in an incognito window. Only way to get the buttons to appear. Only way to get the prices to appear normally as well.

I just use the mobile app, never had an issue so far

I use the mobile app but have to add them to library, put in my password and checkout one by one. It is very annoying.

I never get asked for password at checkout, but yeah doing multiple purchases is annoying

Same thing was happening to me yesterday evening (Chrome). The solution was irritatingly easy - signing out and then back in again. :rolleyes:

First time on a US Account, previous was a UK PS+. When I go into get each new monthly game they are not free for me. Asking me to pay for them.

Is it, that's just my problem thing?

Are you signed into the right account and are you on the right store?

Yes, US Store, when clicking into PS+ you've to change as well. Tried on PS5 and on the Website but no luck. Seems I also have great difficulty adding a payment source which will compound the issue because even free games need a way of paying. Hmmm catch 22 I think. Cannot add either a card or paypal. Cannot even create a US paypal because it needs a US Mobile to send a text.

Seems like a lot of hassle to save about €11 on a yearly Plus sub.

How did you pay for US PS+?
Can you use the same method to add funds to your US wallet and use that as a payment source?

€28 saving so I would say significant when you have to buy one every year.

No, I will try a VPN and see if that solves it.

EDIT - Could be a broken US PSN Store actually. Earlier the prices were on it, now with VPN on and off prices aren't even there and then a quick scoot over to Twitter I find a lot of people with similar issues:

I've never had a saved payment method on my US account, I just add money to the wallet via psn credit top ups

Yeah, seen Greedfall was showing up as £10,000 on the UK store for Plus subscribers.
