I hadnt seen that image, I saw a supposed screen cap of the German PS blog.

http://playstationeu.i.lithium.com/t...v=mpbl-1&px=-1

Easily faked as well...

I wish we didn't get these fake leaks as it always make the actual PS+ list disappointing when something you like the look of doesn't turn up (Even though you know it probably wont anyway).

Some real arty farty titles this month.

Guacamelee is a great game & im looking forward to having it on PS4 as mostly played it on Vita.

Unfinished Swan & Hohokum were 2 I wanted to try but held off til they were on Plus.

I want to try Murasaki Baby but guessing it won't work with Playstation TV as it relies heavily on the Vita's UI.

Never heard of Ether One but it looks interesting. Chase the Sun doesn't interest me at all. Don't like those endless runner type games.

Bit disappointed it's not Knack or Rayman like the "leak" shown but these will do nicely for me.

Very interesting month. Already got Guacamelee, but really looking forward to trying out the rest.

They might not be "big name" games, but it is giving people an opportunity to play stuff they might otherwise have overlooked.

I actually approve.

To be honest I don't think it matters for me what comes to plus. I usually add to library and don't even bother trying them. I don't get as much time gaming now and when I do I jump on battlefield.

Great to have these. Personally I'm glad we got those over Rayman and Knack.

Unfinished Swan! Finally! Wanted this and Journey on PS+ for ages. Hope the latter will show up soon as well.

Guacamelee is really good too if you put a bit of time into it, we got that on Plus for PS3/VITA a while back and I completed it, not sure I'll be going round again but it's nice to have there.

Is this the first month for months/years where the PS3 doesn't get a big "name" title? Not complaining as I've still got dozens in a backlog and we got such a good one last month (Dishonored), but I hope this isn't a sign of a dwindling down for PS3.

Having said that, some of my favourite PS+ releases on PS3 recently have been the smaller indie arty ones.

Good month.

I have Guacamelee on ps4 already, great game. I picked up Race the Sun in the Xmas sale for a couple of quid. Really good game. Has a nice art style and that 'one more go' feel to it. Great on the Vita

Interested to try the rest. ether One looks really cool and I have been wanting to try Unfinished Swan and Hohokum.

Hohokum, Unfinished Swan and Ether One look interesting this month. Race the Sun looks ok as well although not sure I will try that one out. I didnt really enjoy Guacamelee on PS3 so will give that a miss as well.

So good month for PS4 owners with 5 games been offered

Its just a shame about the fake list as I would have been a lot happier with this months list had I not read that Knack might be a PS+ game this month.

Could, in a way, plus actually harm these indie developers ? Reading on official psn forums you see a lot folk say they are fed up being burned by buying an indie game only for it to pop up on plus. Many folk saying they now don't buy any and just wait.

It's very possible that it's hurting indie devs. Although the $1 million (?) they get from Sony will help heal the loss they incurred from people waiting. But it's the indies companies whose games don't appear on plus, that might be hurt more.

Only just got round to playing Never Alone from last month - what on earth were the developers smoking when they came up with that control scheme? Maddening and bizarre system to throw the boro. Simply had to give up.

Just played some Papo and Yo. It is interesting and far better than the one-dimensional Dishonoured. I knew there was a reason that I will never pay any money for FPS games.

I finding the whole 'Indie game" thing a piss take if I'm honest. I didn't pre order the most powerful console ever made, to play bloody indie games. If they want to force us to have PS+ it should be cheaper, if they want to supply us with indie games. It's not too bad for me as I still have my PS3/Vita etc, but for people who only have a PS4 or came over from the 360 it must be a kick in the teeth.

The odd indie here and there is not a problem, but month in month out is getting very tiresome. The console's getting on for 2 years old, and still no drive club, knack,etc is stretching my loyalty a bit far.

Why do people keep banging on about Knack, month after month after month? If you want it, just buy it FFS.

TBF to Sony, if it wasn't for them you'd just be paying for the privilege of online play a la Xbox Live for the first 10 years.
Whilst I enjoy the prospect of free games every month I'm quite sure PS Plus and Games with Gold are having a detrimental effect on gaming, people hold off buying games now in the hope that they will be 'free' further down the line. Some developers will make money from their games appearing on these services but there will hundreds of other games that suffer because of it.

Exactly this. By giving away AAA games they create a "I'll wait till it's on PS+" mentality which is very dangerous.

When AAA games appeared on PS3 PS+ there was usually a reason behind it, such as disappointing retail sales (Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs), or to promote a forthcoming sequel (Battlefield 3, Need For Speed: Most Wanted).

On the topic of indies, look at The Trine games. They're technically indie games but are amazing. They even look and feel more AAA than some AAA games. And we got Trine 2 on ps+ last year.

Lots of indie games are shite, but so are lots of AAA games.
