PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup for May: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Humanity, Watch Dogs: Legion

Rift Apart. If you don't have a plus get it from a friend or subscribe for a month to play it. The game is:

Sony just casually dropping a sub service where for £80 a year (or £50 during Black Friday) you can get games like DeS, Horizon FW, Ratchet, Sackboy and Returnal. They just love eating Microsoft's lunch.

It is just cheap enough for me to keep. Maybe. Subs don't work for me. I think ratchet, which I intended to buy and play, is the first game I tried waiting to hit a sub. And here goes 67 months/$50 of not using the service. More than it costs for the game!

If I had different habits it would be a great deal but I already have a massive collection of games to try out... mostly curated by me. So a sub is somewhat redundant.

I'm kinda like that also, when a game i want reach 30 bucks i buy it, so probably will not continue with PS Plus. Game Pass is bit different for me and so far i had more games i wanted and didn't buy yet on GP.

Without an insane marketing/influence blitz and just a handful of ps5 games. And without giving it away for years. This is why I think it's premature to say anyone else owns the sub business.
 
Great month! Looking forward to Sakuna, Humanity and Pursuit Force. Already have R&C and Risk of Rain but people should check those out.

The way I look at it, most of us are going to pay for essential regardless, and it's only an extra $40 a year for Extra. So about $3.34/mo for access to the library I think is a more than fair deal. Premium at the moment is a waste though.

That's exactly the impression my consumer monkey brain got. It just feels like I'm getting all that for $40 because I'm already resigned to coughing up the 60. The total $100 a year feels pretty cheap. The switch one is just a nice little stack of snes games (to me) but for $20 im like... sure. A meal with a shake at carls junior is like $17 now.

We used to say that about their PC games, then putting their games on the service. And now look at this.

The market is changing and Sony is reacting to that change.

They won't put their games day1 in 2-3 years though. They will do it slowly, like they did with their PC games.

I hope everyone is ready for budgets going off the cliff if this will actually happen. There is no way around it.
 
Ratchet is great for the lineup.

They're not playing with the Syphon Filter games lol. I think they're only missing 1 game at this point.

I have to check my library because I think I already bought Sakuna: Rice of Ruin. I have so many games that I bought but haven't played so I have to check these lists half the time on games im interested in.

Going to try out Humanity though at some point.

I have almost all of these but recognize this is a great month overall.
That said I'm still bitter that Sony is removing first party titles for no reason.......

IMO it's like Dead Space 3; not as bad as everyone says, but definitely the weakest of the trilogy no matter how you look at it.

The change that pissed me off the most was that unlike the first two where you had full access to every weapon and gadget you'd acquired up to any point, Legion makes you choose a loadout... and you can't change it while you're in a secure zone or under pursuit, engaged in combat, etc. Made the whole thing feel like way more of a pain in the ass than the previous WDs.

Supposedly it was updated to allow you to play the entire solo story campaign as Aiden Pearce instead of generic NPCs and it's a big improvement. I haven't tried it that way personally, maybe now I finally will.
 
More Syphon Filter. Yes!

Hopefully the releases of the franchise on ps+ premium is setting up a new Syphon Filter reveal soon. I know Bend are making new IP but one can hope.

Short sighted, a lot of people are going to sign up and stay signed up if all Sony first party is on the network. I would have stayed on it basically forever, however, If they keep taking off first party titles there is a strong change I leave when my sub is up.
 
Blade Dancer: Lineage of Light is a first-party Japan Studio PSP game that NISA and Ignition picked up for the west. I wonder if Sony acquired the publishing rights of the game in NA, Europe and Australia? If so, I hope they do the same with titles like Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Work Time Fun, Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner, Wild Arms XF, etc.
 
Feels great never having bought a game on PS5, despite owning one for over a year, PS+ Extra comes through again. Can't wait to try Ratchet A Rift Apart and Humanity :messenger_smiling_with_eyes:

I'm actually a bit surprised how little comparisons are made between the two services from mainstream gaming media.
Some type of monthly comparison between the services offerings would be some decent journalism and way more valuable than a lot of shit they regurgitate.
 
Interesting how many Bethesda games they've added recently to the service, i wonder if it has to do something with the ActiBlizz deal.
Also some nice additions to the classic catalog. Pursuit Force! I think i saw Metal Jesus Rock talk about that game in one of his PSP videos, looked pretty cool. They still release way too few games for the Classic Catalog, where are the PS1 games and especially PS2???

Gamepass edges with PC and EA. Without that, PS+ would have been better service.

15$ for PC, EA(console+PC), and day1 games is steal.

But EA is 99% garbage. The PC part I'll give you, if you've got a capable gaming rig. Which I, and many other console owners, don't. For us PS+ is definitely the better deal now.

Looking forward to trying out Ratchet & Clank. Just made the upgrade to a 4K OLED so I can't wait to see how beautiful it will look. Will definitely play Humanity and also heard Lake was supposed to be good

Make sure you play on 40hz mode, you get the very high graphics and much smoother gameplay.
 
Great month but still surprised at how greedy it was to release the spiderman remaster for $50 then simultaneously remove spiderman ps4 shortly after.

i was hoping the remaster would replace the ps4 version but we gotta wait til they cash out on it before they put it back on

Damn, Sony lol

I'm kinda pissed I spent over a $100 CAD on this nearly 2 years ago. 😳

Definitely could've waited.. even though it's a pretty good platformer.

Damn…

They really need patch the dishonored games to 60 fps or release a collection remastered edition. Leaving those master pieces capped at 30 fps on current gen console is a disgrace.

Thats an easy win for Xbox if they want to make them exclusive, remastered 4k60 pack with Prey included too. In fact i would not be surprised if thats one of the collections Phil talked about in the KF interview.

FYI Dishonored 1 DE and Death of the Outsider have FPS boost on Series. Both run at 60 FPS.

For some reason they skipped over the second game for FPS boost and went for Outsider instead.
