Quite pleased to see Zombie on Plus next month, I have been interested in that since the launch of the Wii U.

Well, with that in depth appraisal you've certainly convinced me.

/Sarcasm.

So, Zombie as in the Wii U launch game. Nice addition, not too shabby at all.

Kind of Dying Light Lite if you will.

Big dilemma omtt as no doubt when ur plus runs out this time around u won't get ur free online.
I know 😕 That's why I'm waiting for there to be 2 months of games I'm interested in in a row so it makes renewing worthwhile. A lot of the games I've been playing of late and ones I'm interested in in the future are mostly single player until BF5 comes out

There's been a few PS3 games that I'd have downloaded if I were still a subscriber but I no longer own a PS3 or a Vita for that matter so renewing purely for PS4 titles when I can still play online wouldn't have been worth it.

If there was a way that Sony could implement backwards compatibility like MS has done with its 360 games working on X1 it would've been worth renewing as I'd have got my monies worth. Even if the PS3 plus games could be made available to play on PS4 via PS Now for free, that would be something

My first month as a non subscriber. Nothing here to tempt me back really. A better month than recently though.

I love the guy on the ps blog who (nearly) always is the first post asking if people are happy with this months offerings. He must be refreshing his browser for two days solid waiting for the lineup

April

Dead Star (PS4)
Zombi (PS4)
I Am Alive (PS3)
Savage Moon (PS3)
A Virus Named Tom (PS Vita)
Shutshimi (PS Vita)
I think Shutshimi is PS4 also, but nothing to get excited about...

Zombi is the best offering in a decent while - as in it's not a side-scrolling 8-bit platformer - but still, these offerings absolutely pale compared to what GFG put up this month.

Zombi looks decent, as does Dead Star, I don't think there should be complaints (on PS4 side) this month.

My sub came to an end in early March but I've decided to renew it today as there is always something to play from the free games, either on PS4, PS3 or Vita. It's definitely worth £35 per year, at least for me, anyhow.

Funnily enough, Knack is now only £5.79 on PSN. But I'm still convinced it'll end up on PS+ some time so I'm not buying it.

It's a real issue with PS+, that I simply don't buy games any more unless I want them brand new. I think the only ones I've bought in the last couple of years have been GTA V, Fallout 4 and FIFA 15 & 16. Oh, and the PGA Tour game when it went on sale recently. All the rest of my gaming has been via PS+, as I'm stupidly afraid of getting a game then it going on plus.

Mine expired 1404 today

Interestingly, as awaiting a ga,e in fifa 16 at around 1358 - came up you need to be a ps plus subscriber

Quit, went into rocket league and it came up 'this application will expire in 5mins)

They certainly don't f about wth this - instant F off pal!

3-4 years a subscriber, don't think ill ever be back as I rarely play online - maybe if I get rocke league withdrawals

Dead Star is quite good, I enjoyed a few blasts last night. Zombi was 22gb so had to leave that for now.

Dead Star would have been fun if they had made a single player campaign.
Took ages to actually start a game, it had a countdown clock that stopped counting down, then started, then stopped, then started. Matchmaking was pretty broken when I tried it.
Not often the tutorial is the best part of a game.

Not much interest in Zombi but I've downloaded it and will give it a chance, was surprised to see it was 22gb when Far Cry 4 takes up 24gb.
Graphically they are worlds apart.

A Virus Called TOM and Shutshimi are rubbish, AVCT has some nice presentation and production, shame the games is pants.

The problem with this is people want big games free, but your only ever going to get big games that are over a year old (and more) and by then you could have picked them up for around a fiver either second hand, or on a digital sale.

I had hope for Deadstar - it's an online game that needs a big player base to survive, perfect to entice players by giving it a free month - unfortuantly it seems a bit arse from my brief experience last night. It's certainly isn't this years Rocket League!!

It'd be nice if games like Evolve became free for a month, that's the sort of game that failed to generate enough interest (and playerbase) at it's time of release - and now is pretty much dead - but by tempting people to give it ago for free then it may bring the game extended life.

Dead Star would benefit from having the instructions more easy to understand. I have no idea how to rank up a ship or what the recycling is all about.

I resubbed in the end. Quite fancied trying zombi. Dead Star didn't do it for me really but it is a decent title.
Poor month for the Vita.

In good vita news though, Severed is finally being released on the 26th April with a 10% discount for plus members. Looks like it could be fun. Drinkbox are a great developer, I loved Mutant Blobs and Guacamelee

Ok this is a bit of a strange one. Just watched a youtube video about an April fools invisible avatar, ok April fools is long gone, but did anybody here know about this? It's a little weird that sony did this lol, the guy on youtube is American so I don't know if this was available in the UK.

It's quite possible nobody has a clue what I'm going on about !

I don't think you can share specifically to What's New. But if you share to Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, etc it gets posted there too.

YouTube worked! Sadly it's not possible to share pictures that way, don't want to post a load of gaming stuff to my Facebook.

Don't know why they don't just have a share to what's new, simplify things somewhat.

You could create an anonymous Twitter account and post pics to that.

That would mean Sony having to host the videos somewhere themselves, a massive amount of storage if everyone was doing it.
