I had a 90 day subscription which I won I a competition. It ran out a few days ago. When I get a new subscription, will the saves I uploaded to cloud storage be available again or are they now lost forever?
You have to renew your subscription within 6 months otherwise they will be wiped.

Man PSN+ is such good value for money, playing BF3 every night and then having games like Just Cause 2 and AC3 to fall back on really is something.

Just seen this on the EU Blog comments. I would guess LBP could be the Vita replacements for Uncharted.


Guacamelee
Hotline Miami
Far Cry 3
LittleBigPlanet Vita
PixelJunk Monsters Vita
Plants vs Zombies Vita
Need for Speed:Most Wanted Vita
Assassins Creed: Liberation Vita

From the EU Blog Staff "Two of those are planned but I can’t say which I am afraid"

My PS+ was due to expire in 3 days, so I just re-subscribed (12+3 months). The account details now correctly show that it runs until mid December 2014, but the expiry date on my games has remained the same and states they will expire in 3 days.

Is this normal? Will the games switch to the new dates once the existing subscription expires?

Thanks in advance.

^^ I think that is normal, mine haven't updated either for the game I downloaded before extending my subscription but the games I downloaded after all have the new date.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how often are the games updated and how long do I have to download them?

New games come each month, normally its three PS3 games and two Vita games. Sometimes games are cross-buy meaning you get the PS3 and Vita version and sometimes we get collections like Jak and Daxter which counts as one game.

You have until they get removed from the service which varies on the game, the shortest time games are available is a month. You dont actually have to download the games though, you can just 'buy' them which adds them to your download history so you can download them in the future even after the game has been removed from the service.

Vita games are great next month. Happy with the PS3 games too, but thanks to GTA V they will have to go on my ( ever increasing ) backlog.

For platinum for Far Cry 3 but will add it to my collection. Not really heard much about the other games but at least there's nothing to entice me away from GTA

I'm so pleased with PlayStation Plus. In my opinion it's much better value than Xbox Live and gives me the oppotunity to play games I've either missed in the past or just didn't think I'd like at first.

It's a good job I upgraded my 60GB PS3 hard drive to 500GB a few years ago as it is gradually filling up with all the games. Just started playing Jak & Daxter over the weekend, a game I missed first time around and am really enjoying it. Also got ICO on the go too, another missed gem from the PS2 days.

Got my PS4 on pre-order but was a bit late so might not get it in time for launch, but with all the games I've still got to get through, including GTA V, it won't matter too much.

Looking forward to getting my teeth into Dragons Dogma. From what people have said it is oldschool type hardcore RPG which allows you to use other peoples characters as pawns to aid you , even if that person is offline it will boost their stats too.

Farcry 3 is an amazing game i only need the online missions done to platnium it.

Zero interest in either Vita offering but that's nothing new. The PS3 titles however are an entirely different matter. FC3 offers some strong RPG elements, high level production values and all the exploratory diversity that the freeroam genre provides. Capcom’s ‘Westernised’ RPG Dragons Dogma is another title that will receive some attention. Quality effort Sony!

What other'big'games do we think could eventually make plus?

I dont fancy it, but feel that twisted metal possibly didn't sell well,so thought that not make it. Also surprised gt5 didn't make it.....though that might actually hinder sales of GT6 as a bad demo I guess. Had also hoped for Arkham city.

I'm hoping for Unfinished Swan and Journey by the end of the year. I was expecting GT5 to come on when GT6 is due, they often do that, give you the old one when the new one comes up (Saints Row, Mass Effect, Dead Space, Battlefield, Borderlands etc)

Wish they'd do a month of 1 game give away plus 1 catch up token. You could use this to get a title that has previously been offered but you missed. Maybe offer this say twice yearly.
