I think Killzone shadow fall is a bit underrated to be honest, I think its a great game with a fun multiplayer, a solid single player with a fairly interesting story & very good overall gameplay (I'd say its the best in the series in terms of gameplay).

That Galag-z game is part of the Play promotion in the states, so I wouldn't expect that to be a plus game.

Submerged would be cool though. It looks really interesting, great music too.

Yeah I would have liked to see that on Plus too, but its already been announced that it will launch with a 20% discount for PS+ members.

They have already had a good month with the popular Rocket League, now expect about 5/6 months of games I probably wouldnt download.

November is the PS4s 2 year anniversary so expect a burst of good games around then to keep people subscribing.

Not sure what the think about Limbo reappearing on PS+. On the one hand we have already had the game on PS3 PS+ but on the other hand this does open up the possibility for remasters like Sleeping Dogs the appear on PS4 PS+ or to see PS4 version Thief. I have enough PS4 content to not play Thief on PS3 and would rather play it on PS4, but I cant bring myself to buy it on PS4 because I have it free on PS3.

I am happy to see Lara Croft on PS4. I enjoyed the first game and hope this is more of the same.

Limbo on PS3/Vita isn't cross-buy with PS4, just like Guacamelee on PS3/Vita isn't cross-buy with PS4 and that was on PS+ a couple of months ago.

Just seen the advertisement saying you can now vote for a game to be put on plus. Think you can choose out of 3 games.

Pleased with God of War Ascension, love the series but missed that one somehow.
The Lara Croft game looks fun, I enjoyed the prequel, so more of the same will be fine with me.
Shame about Limbo but happy enough all told.
It would be cool if they let you play the Ps3 games through the streaming service for the month they are available. Curious to try it out.

I already own Lara Croft, a nice wee game for those that haven't played it. Played Limbo about 2010 when it was an xbox exclusive, nice little game but I imagine most people will have played it by now.
GOW Ascension is the only God of War game I haven't completed, something feels off and it's difficulty is rock solid.

I haven't played any of the others, I'll give them a shot but definitely not excited about them.

So a pretty good month if you're new to Lara Croft or Limbo.

I remember people complaining about the difficulty and Santa Monica Studio had to release a patch to make it easier. I wish they left it alone. This game was proof that button mashing won't get you far.

But I've completed every GOW before it which means something isn't quite right with difficulty spike/balance. I'm not brilliant at games but I do consider myself 'above average'.
I won't play souls/bloodborne type games as I know they will drive me insane.

Not sure I like that.

I can see us missing out on some small gems if you have a better known, larger title in the vote. For instance if you have something like an Uncharted up against 2 smaller PSN titles everyone is just going to vote for the bigger game & were going to miss out on the smaller titles which you may not usually buy but end up really enjoying.

I know there's been a ton of games i've got through PS+ which i'd not heard of & would never have considered buying that ended up been awesome which i've put a load of hours into & i'd miss having that if people just always ended up for the better known game.

Completed Limbo on PS3 like a lot of people but I'm up for another bash. I haven't played Tomb Raider TOO though so looking forward to that one.

Won't be bothering with GOW since a mate lent me that game not too long ago and I gave up after about an hour of playing it.

Already own Sound Shapes but I'd recommend it to anyone who hasn't, if only for the Beck levels.

Not sure how I feel about that. On one hand, it means that, as a gaming community, we get what we want.

One the other had, I have to question some people's taste. I just know there are people out there that would vote for something like Knack ahead of Rocket League just because they see it as a "proper" game. Or they'll vote for something with Zombies in the title, regardless of its quality relative to the other offerings.

There's a danger that, rather than providing varied, unique, high quality offerings, it could end up offering lowest common denominator pap.

Whatever happens, it's sure to generate some interesting conversations as debate on pages such as this one. Could be fun.

I do agree with you two. People will vote for the better known title rather than which one might be best. At least the other two titles will be discounted that month tho.

But I guess Sony will have no accountability. If people complain about the months PS+ offering then Sony can just say 'Well these are the games you guys voted for'. Even if the three offered are garbage.

And will the voting just be for one game? So Sony would still pick the other five ? Meh !

Personally speaking I find the look of Knack much more appealing and to my taste than Rocket League. I thought Styx and Entwined looked more interesting than Rocket League as well.

As someone who tends to prefer the larger games over smaller titles I would like to see some variety for the games offered on PS+. At the moment it is too heavy leaning toward smaller indie titles which is great for those who prefer those games but more often than not they are of little interest to me (And clearly a lot of others). All I want is to see PS+ cater to all customers, indie fans are well catered for, fans of larger retail games really aren't cater for at all any more.
