Re: Official PSN Games Thread

How long do I have to download the current free games? Is it today, or up until the new ones go live, or is there some overlap? My PS+ expired at the end of March and I have a renewal code ready to go, but I'm waiting for the opportune moment.

It's when the new ones go live, mid-afternoon of the first Tuesday of the month.

So if you want the April games, do it on Monday, but I don't think April was a particularly strong month (at least on PS4).

Actually I thought Never Alone was pretty good.

It was pretty good, but for the PS4, I thought it was the weakest overall month since launch, even if I enjoyed and finished two of the three games.

This month, by contrast, is pretty phenomenal.

I already finished Guacamelee when it was free on XB1. It got really difficult towards the end, but totally worth it. I almost picked up The Unfinished Swan when it was on sale the past couple times, glad I held off.

I've spent $30 on all those Star Wars tables you all can get for less than $10 total and I don't regret it at all. The SW tables are almost all great and mostly well voiced with reasonable sound-alikes (whoever voices the Mark Hamill lines excluded).
Decker, which SW tables you like best? I may not get all of them. Probably one of two. Thanks

Re: Official PSN Games Thread

The last pack is the best value as it's four tables instead of three.

My two favorite tables are probably the Boba Fett table on the first pack

And the Starfighter table from Balance of the Force
<iframe width="853" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iswul7npJSY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Honestly I'd probably just recommend getting them all because they're like never on sale, but barring that, I'd try the demo versions which are available to download. That way you'll have a good idea which packs are better than the rest.

Remember if you buy them to buy the PS3 or Vita version FIRST. Buying it on one unlocks it on the other. Then after completing the purchase, it will show as a free purchase for the PS4 version and you can grab that next.

Anyone else having trouble getting into the PSN store this morning (Saturday)? I haven't been able to on the PS4 (for the last several hours), although I was able to on the Vita.

I just logged out of PS4 and then logged in again and the Store came up when I tried it. Weird.

I can now waste most of the remaining day taking advantage of the Star Wars tables deal.

Picked up and played all the tables. I suck at doing the missions* but they're still a blast.

*seriously, I struggle to get them started and when I do I lose my ball damn near immediately killing the mission.

I downloaded P.T. before it dropped off of the store, just out of morbid curiosity.

Normally, I scoff at "scary games", but that was unnerving as hell. Hopefully most of you were able to at least check it out.

Sucks that Silent Hills was cancelled.

Consider yourself lucky because the PSN Store hardly ever works on my PS4. I usually have the do the Internet connection trick to get it to come up which is kind of annoying actually. You would think this bug would be one they would have put the effort in to fix ASAP.

May PS+ games are up. Airmech Arena is also free, but you will have to search for it since it wasn't on the original list.

It's been said before, but it bears repeating. Guacamelee is SO GOD DAMN GOOD!

PS4 = definitive version IMO. D-pad and sticks are muy bueno.

Race the Sun is pretty fun and addictive. Played through the first chapter of Ether One as well, it has that Gone Home feeling.
