I think its a great month. Control is an amazing game imo, and I haven't played the dlc so looking forward to blasting through that on the 5. Concrete Genie I never pulled the trigger on, but will definitely give that a go.

And I have to say that I like the look of Destruction Allstars. Looks like fun.

Agree with all of this. Best month I can remember

I was thrilled to see Control come to PS Plus, very happy with that. I'll be playing Concrete Genie in VR. I love PSVR.

I don't own Control so that's handy. The rumoured ones of Cjv 6 and Far Cry would also have been good though

So watching that, a lot of the content still has to be paid for (at least at launch)?

There is no pay to win, skins, emotes etc can be bought using currency earned in game or via paid add-ons. They did say that in the future there would be more ways to earn in game currency.

I never mentioned cosmetics. There are "Challenge Series" events (trials, challenges etc, with 'back story') which can only be played by redeeming destruction points. These points can only be bought at launch. So if you want the full experience, either pay up at launch, or wait for them to add the ability to earn destruction points in-game and hope it isn't a slog to do so.

Ah sorry, yeah I wonder if the Challenge series will launch after a few weeks and when there is another option to earn destruction points. I can't see them locking content like this behind paywall

I wonder what the original business model was. Anyway, hopefully it won't hurt interest, as the game looks like it might be fun.

Pity we don't get Bloodstaind: Ritual of the Night on PS+ on top of these three games like Japanese subscribers.

Fantastic Metroidvania game.

Ah balls didn't even think of that. Anyone know if you can play the dlc straight away or is it accessed/suited for late game?

You've to finish the main storyline to do the Foundation DLC and you've to complete the The Face of the Enemy mission to be able to trigger the AWE DLC.

I got the Expansion pack at Christmas after completing the game the end of 2019. I don't know if it was the break or the DLC but it wasn't as much fun as I remembered. Couldn't see myself playing the whole thing over again.

Trying find somewhere cheaper then 60 euro to get sub for year for Ireland. Everywhere I've seen seems be sold out.

Any ideas?

Yeah have noticed that all the sites that sell Irish PSN credit or PsPlus have been out of stock for a while now. Any other region like US is always in stock. No idea what's going on. Unfortunately I think you're going to have to pay the full price for it. Or just get 90 days one for now and hope that they discount 12 months sub again.

I'll keep an eye on it sure.

Controls are a bit odd but it’s quite a relaxing game.
Don’t expect too much and you might have some fun.

Watch out resting your finger on the R2 button, super sensitive and messes with the dodgy controls even more

I actually platinumed it Just because it required minimal investment, I have about 8 hours logged on it and happy to leave it at that. Nice to get through a full game in the minimal time I have available these days
