    It wasn't on Plus... There was a pricing error for a day so loads of people grabbed it for free.

    It was for PS3. July 2014 according to Wikipedia. I played it for about 15 mins and never touched it again.

    Everybody's Gone to the Rapture was rumoured last week as well.

    NBA 2K16 is absolutely fantastic, I've sunk dozens of hours into it since I bought it. Defence is extremely hard to get to grips with but stick with it and it'll get a bit easier. Would be a great choice for plus, I can sell the disc for a few euro then.

    Oh yeah it was 2K13 that had the price glitch

    The online Park street ball is brilliant but 95% of online players are absolute dopes. If it does go free, would be great to get some private matches going. Always the best laugh playing with fwends.

    I LOVED that. Felt like I was wandering around a dream for a few hours. Must give it another run through over the summer.

    Might not be the same game/year but there was one that was added to plus in some countries instead of a more violent game but they messed up and it was still down as free for the rest of SCEE.

    I'm so glad he added the /s at the end to indicate that he was being sarcastic or I never would have guessed.

    Does Pong and Frogger have a Platinum trophy? I'll play it if it does.

    I hope the multiplayer isn't just an afterthought to the exhilarating campaigns.

    Siren: Blood Curse is a great game if a tad unwieldy and totally fúcking weird. Looking forward to playing Chains of Olympus again. Pretty good month overall.

    Gone Home is a quick game, apparently completition takes between 30 mins and 3 hours.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 8,568 ✭✭✭RedXIV


    Definitely gonna try Gone Home. NBA games have always been hit or miss with me, but it's my first sports game (other than rocket league) on the PS4 so will probably give it a try.

    Isn't Siren:Blood Curse a horror game? didn't realise it had episodes?

    It's a game I'd be interested in playing but not one I could justify spending €15 or whatever it costs. I'm happy to get that on Plus.

    Yep, a slow playthrough taking everything in shouldn't take more than 2 hours.

    Trophy wise, can be platinumed in about 50 mins

    Yeah, it's a horror game and a very unsettling one at that. It was originally released chapter by chapter I believe.

    No Platinum in Gone Home, only 100% completition.

    Siren has no trophies at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭Digital Solitude


    Sirens fairly old though isn't it? Most of the older PS3 games don't have trophies.

    It's been on my list for a while anyways so I'm happy about it, knocks another game off the PS3 list.

    Would that put you off playing a game? Wouldn't bother me at all.

    Yeah it would put me off, I'm a bit of a strange fish and need to hear that "Bing" when I've unlocked a trophy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,369 ✭✭✭Rossi IRL


    Very happy with NBA


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,507 ✭✭✭✭Xenji


    Happy with Gone Home, I have both Siren and NBA 2k16 though, NBA is a 42 gig download.

    Siren was one of the best horror games on the PS3, once you get used to the odd and some what awkward controls at times it is a great game, especially if you play it with headphones on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,567 ✭✭✭✭martyos121


    For anyone like myself who already has NBA 2K16, it's worth noting that CEX (the website prices anyway) are taking it for €27 cash. It's quite literally free money. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,166 ✭✭✭Beefy78


    I didn't get on at all with NBA 2K13 - I struggle with anything too complicated and therefore Basketball games peaked for me with NBA Jam :)

    That said I've got friends in the States who rave about the career mode and say it is the best sports career sim ever made so I'm keen to give it a better try.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,456 ✭✭✭astonaidan


    Already have NBA but still great game for those who dont have it, my sports game of the year.
    Had thought about getting Gone Home for a while now, so happy out.
    All in all a good month for plus on PS4, its rare I say it, long may it last

    Career mode is brilliant once you finish the awful, awful story which takes up the first 10 hours or so, depending on how long you set your games to. I always play full length 48 minute games to get realistic stats, the progression system is good too (you buy skills in baskets rather than individually to avoid overpowering, badges give you extra perks).

    It's up there as one of my favourite sports games ever, it genuinely gets better every year IMO, and I'm not even a big fan of the sport.
