Hotline Miami will also be available on PS4 to.
So a triple cross buy, that's awesome, two PS4 games this month. Where have you seen this mentioned?

I am glad Hotline Miami is cross-buy as it gives me something on the PS3 this month as I already have Sly (Which I though was average) and don't really like football games much. Although I will probably give PES a few goes just to see how things have changed, I don't think I have played a footy game since getting my PS3. I think the last one I played was a World Cup Fifa on Xbox.

From the devs twitter, Hotline Miami is coming to PS4 soon and will be a part of cross buy, so if you already own it on PS3 and Vita, you'll get the PS4 version when that's released.

Is there no way to redeem a PS+ code via PC?

I logged in on the PC and tried to redeem my code but it says the code cannot be redeemed on a PC.

My PS3 is broke and I am planning on getting a new one in a month or two but wanted to renew my PS+ while Tomb Raider is on there so I had it in my collection for when I got a new PS3.

Here is an interesting article asking if we expect too much from the PS+ IGC?

Wow the US are only getting Batman now, we had that ages ago.

I do think people are expecting too much on the PS4 side this early into the system given that PS+ generally offers older games. I think it great that Sony have managed to offer a free game each month to PS4 users. As for PS3 offerings I cant see how anyone can complain about the games on offer. The biggest complaint I normally have when the PS3 content is announce is either "I already own it" or "its a game I have no interest in" which is not really a complain about the service and more a comment on my disappointment that every game offered is not something I want

It does annoy me that the US still get 3 PS3 games a month while we only get two, what's up with that.

We got that well over a year ago i'm sure

Got to say this month is a mix bag as i own half the games being offered (not sure if they are confirmed or not yet)

But the games i don't own PES2014 and MotoGP are games that i would never pay money for but i've always wanted to try full versions of them and maybe i'll start buying them when the next ones come out

Im not even sure ill even add those ps4 games to my download history, let alone even play them.
Personally id rather they gave us nothing this month and made up for it the following month with a bigger effort.

Nothing for me to download this month The only Plus games I've downloaded on PS4 so far have been Resogun, Contrast & Outlast and I only enjoyed the first two. Added all the PS3 games & Vita games to my history though so can complain too much

I think PS+ does a great job most of the time and we probably don't really appreciate it enough. If you stop to think about it, it is totally unprecedented, no such service has ever existed before, basically gamers have never had it so good!

All that said, I do think it would help Sony's and PS+ image if they could get some kind of PS4 retail game on there soon as I think some are tiring of the 'indie' 'budget' type offerings. For example drive club popping up on there in the next month or two would be a very timely coup for Sony.

I might be doing it a diservice purely as I don't really do retro, but when I youtubed it I thought it looked like a spectrum game.

It does have that pixel-art style, but the graphics are beautifully crisp and clear even in the 4-player split-screen mode that we tried. It handles in a similar vein to Contra or Metal Slug but you are given specific tasks and missions to complete which some are comparing to Monster Hunter.

I only had a 5 minute playaround, but I enjoyed it enough to recommend that everyone at least gives it a go when it hits PS+, especially if you're able to play in co-op.

I thought it looked crap. I dont like this retro look to modern games. Why cant they draw nice art but still in 2d?

If anyone fancies trying a retro sprite looking game, I recommend Fez. It's a 2D platform puzzler but you can rotate the world with R2 and L2 to access different areas. It was on Xbox Live a few years ago & was released earlier this week on PS4/PS3 Vita. It was only £6.24 I think including Plus discount,£7.99 without. If you buy one version, you get all three and the saves can be used over all three versions.

Then you get folk complaining stuff looks like Flash games... There's a middle ground somewhere.

+1. I already have it on Xbox and Steam but will get it again for Vita...

Any confirmation on what we are actually getting in April yet? It's strange for it to get this late as they will be out soon won't they? They should be coming this week I would have thought?

Not like I've got through last months yet though or the month before that and ditto for the month before that too.... wish someone would make a time machine so I could make enough time to actually play them all before I'm old and gray!

I quite like the look of this month's line up. The only one I have is hotline miami and it's nice to see some sports/racing titles in there as I know the PSN line up has typically been very light on sports games in the past. I'm not a huge footy fan myself but I'm sure it will please a lot of people and I don't mind the odd kick around. Moto GP is a good one to have too as it is something I have some interest in but would actually buy it outright but getting it free on plus: great.
