PS3; Far Cry 3, Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen

Vita; Street Fighter X Tekken & Touch My Katamari

I need a vita

Cool!!

I nearly bought street fighter x tekken for my 360 but never got around to it and I nearly bought it for Vita the other night but decided not to bother and kept playing uncharted instead.

Delighted thats coming. Touch my Katamari I know nothing about but free is free so it'll be a download.

Kinda glad theres no big adventure game on the list this month as I still have to finish uncharted and gravity rush.

Dragons Dogma! From what I've heard, that's supposed to be very good

You heard correct.

Bought Spelunky couple weeks back (with PS Plus discount) but was umming and arring whether to buy it or not - basically pondering 'will it be free on PS+ soon?'

Prime example of first world problems! Anyone else postpone buying a game off PSN just in case it came out on plus?

My PSN purchases have gone to almost zero since I signed up to PS+ [Day 1 purchase]. I also don't purchase disk versions of anything anymore. I spend not much more than €50 a year on my gaming and I'm happy. I don't have much time to game these days. I purchase the odd extra thing but nothing much.

Compare that to before PS+. I used to spend about €30 a month. That equates to about, let's say, €400 a year, including actual games and DLC. That doesn't include disk based games that I used to purchase before they were available on PSN.

Looks like an excellent update this month. I've already completed Far Cry 3 but I'll be interested in Giana Sisters and the Street Fighter game on the VITA.

I own Dragons Dogma but only got an hour into it. It just did not click with me.

penev10 · 17-09-2013 10:20AM

Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen! Excellent, another game I was meaning to buy anyway. If it gives out Tomb Raider and Dishonored before my sub runs out next year I'll be sorted!

EGriff · 17-09-2013 10:27AM

Far Cry 3, what a game, might trade it in towards GTA V now. Always liked the look of Dragon's Dogma too.

Xbox would really want to get the finger out, they're giving Rainbow 6: Vegas this week. That's a great game too but its 7 years old.

tonydude · 17-09-2013 10:41AM

Was borderline getting tekken this week, thanks sony

CastorTroy · 17-09-2013 12:50PM

Wonder will SFXT be cross buy as well. Or is that being too greedy?

phobia2011 · 17-09-2013 05:05PM

My sub just ran out, us the free 3 month offer still running?

johnny_ultimate · 17-09-2013 05:09PM

Great line-up next month. Was disappointed when I read Far Cry 3 as I (like most, Id guess) have played it already, but Dragons Dogma and Giana Sisters are two games I've had my eye on for ages but know there would always have been something else to distract me away from them. Now I will - hopefully - get around to giving them a whirl. They're the kind of games there should be more of on PSN+ - the small, cult releases that would bypass people by otherwise. **** the AAA releases, more niche!

Till Friday.

jaxdasher · 17-09-2013 05:33PM

Omg too damn good. Far cry 3! And Dragon's Dogma DA! I played the original sooo good. *swoon*

Notorious · 18-09-2013 12:32PM

Another great month for PS+. Back when I worked in a game store, I'd buy nearly every big game that came out - most of which I'd never find the time to actually play. Thankfully I held off on buying all of the games in this month and next month's collection. PS+ is really paying off.

My big question is, how good will it be on the PS4?

MarkY91 · 18-09-2013 12:42PM

cleared and sold far cry 3 so its a ****e month for me

..FC3 is one of my favourite games ever. just an amazing story and fun game to play. think im gona try platinum it

Tipsy McSwagger · 18-09-2013 05:03PM

padz · 19-09-2013 02:08PM

goin to buy the years sub will the 90days be added on after i purchase it, cant see where it says it on the psn store but it says it here

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2013/08/20/playstation-plus-on-ps4-the-revolution-continues/

its there any link or discount code that i need to apply?

RangeR · 19-09-2013 02:15PM

Maybe they took it down a day early. They do this sometimes. In fairness, ye left it a tad late.

batistuta9 · 19-09-2013 03:00PM

it was still on the store this morning going through the PS3

i couldn't see where it said it either in the web version weeks back

It's a bit unfair to put the blame with the poster here. Perhaps they were waiting until payday to purchase, you don't know. They were relying on a statement made by Sony which they have potentially went back on and left some people in the lurch.

batistuta9 · 19-09-2013 03:08PM

it's still there, on the website click playstation plus and it's the middle ad in the banner

actually: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-ie/home/games/psplus

But clicking on the banner brings you to purchasing choices that do not include the extra 90 days.

that's what i was on about before when i said "i couldn't see where it said it either in the web version weeks back"
I don't think it ever showed up in the purchasing part

but it's saying it on the banner so it should work, someone is bound to have gotten though so should know

It did. I saw it there at least once. not a banner, but an object available to purchase.

maybe it did then

but just after it was mentioned here i was looking at it & couldn't see any mention of it on the purchase page, i thought the star beside subscription at the top related to it but no, that's just telling you 1 year = 365 days

it's worth the risk trying it still anyway:
worst case: you buy something that you'd buy anyway. if a little early
best: get the 90 extra days with it

Far Cry 3 is amazing, it was my favorite game from 2012. I've never heard of the other games bar Dragons Dogma which looks kind of interesting.

Try the Dragons Dogma demo. Its quite a long one and your save carries over to the full game.

MarkY91 · 19-09-2013 05:15PM

i cant wait until we get far cry 3. i cleared it already and sold it but its just amazing. its up there with TLOU for me

CastorTroy · 19-09-2013 10:41PM

The 1 year + 90 days offer is still on. My expiry date just went from July 2014 to October 2015

Just wondering, where in the ps3 menu do you go to check the remaining time on your subscription?

CastorTroy · 20-09-2013 12:46AM

I just went by the expiry date of the Plus games on
