[adamsapple]

Everything except Zau seems like meh.

 

[SlicedBread3]

Was contemplating getting Dave the Diver and Animal Well at some point, so I'm happy with that.

 

[LectureMaster]

Dave and Zau are good games but you can't just do a month lineup without a single AAA game, Jeez.

 

[tusharngf]

Crew 2 is one good game. If you are a fan of underground series this is the game.

 

[Three]

Dave the Diver and Crew 2 are good gets. Will check them out.

 

[a multicultural team of v]

For the love of God please have trophies for these PSX games. I'm not even a trophy hunter but give me some reason to play them over the games on an actual system.

 

[Heisenberg007]

VERY good month.

I'm in.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Will check out Dave the Diver. I heard great things.

 

[cash_longfellow]

They have had ample time to justify the price increase of Plus, this ain’t it. Dave the Diver looks cool, I’ll play it. But this BS at least one racing game and at least one Lego game (more multiples than one often) every month has to stop.

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Total crap. Feels good not subbing.

 

[Lions Gate]

Everything except Zau seems like meh.

Fuck zau

 

[LordCBH]

What a mediocre fucking month

 

[Ogbert]

Will check out Dave the Diver. I heard great things.

It’s good for about an hour.

 

[Killer8]

Animal Well coming out of nowhere. I'm glad Alone in the Dark and MediEvil are being added to the Classics too.

On the flip-side, I felt like Dave the Diver (and Dredge) were some of the most overrated games last year.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Trash month

 

[Fafalada]

Dave and Zau are good games but you can't just do a month lineup without a single AAA game, Jeez.

Hey I'm all for shitting on Ubisoft every chance we get, but The Crew 2 is as AAA as they get. Even FH5 looks small scope in comparison.

 

[engstra]

I like this month. Dave the Diver plus some day one releases like Animal Well and Zau. The Premium offerings are trending upwards as well.

 

[Aenima]

Dave the Diver is excelent, but i already beated it on PC last year, nothing else for me this month, but Stellar Blade would not allow me to play anything else anyway.

 

[FoxMcChief]

It’s good for about an hour.

That’s fine. Not like it’s costing me extra.

 

[AJUMP23]

Dave the Diver is excellent.

 

[Lupin25]

Animal Well looks interesting. Nice to see Sony throw Dunkey’s BigMode a day 1 sub deal.

Dave the Diver, Zau are good adds. The Crew 2 makes sense now that 1 will be delisted, probably one of the few decent arcade racers left on PS that isn’t Lego or Hot Wheels.

[havoc00]

Pretty trash month

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Some great games that I doubt I'll ever get to. I'll try to get to Dave The Diver, Raji and Deliver Us Mars. Maybe Stray Blade?

 

[Jaybe]

Fuck zau

They needed to pawn it off to a subscription service because they knew no one would buy it

 

[Spyxos]

It's only getting worse from month to month with ps plus.

 

[cash_longfellow]

It's only getting worse from month to month with ps plus.

Sure does feel like it.

 

[Generic]

Nice month, will try Deliver Us Mars, Raji and Lego Ninjago.

 

[dotnotbot]

PS2 classics are long overdue

 

[Kerotan]

PlayStation Premium | Classics​

· Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare (original PlayStation version) | PS4, PS5 (hopefully has trophies to platinum with Inferno and 2024)

· Star Wars: Rebel Assault II: The Hidden Empire (original PlayStation version) | PS4, PS5

· MediEvil (original PlayStation version) | PS4, PS5 (like Goku variants in FighterZ)

At this rate the classic collection for premium subs will be really big after another year or two. Still a ton of Sony published games from ps1/2/psp/vita.

They're probably waiting for the PS6 before doing ps3 as downloadable games.

 

[bender]

Isn't Animal Well one of the first titles from Dunkey's publishing venture? I'll check that out and Dave the Diver for sure. One of the better months for my interests.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare will be playable on PS5? Bought.

I also highly recommend Miasma Chronicles - it's from the same guys who made Mutant Year Zero and plays very similar as well.

 

[clarky]

Everything except Zau seems like meh.

Dave the Diver is great.

Highly recommended.

 

[Fake]

Medievil here I go.

 

[Varteras]

Busting it back out...

 

[Lokaum D+]

 

[balls of snow]

Deliver us Mars..finally.

 

[SuperBabyMethod]

Alone in the Dark is an excellent game.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

Marvels Avengers, baby!

 

[Topher]

It’s good for about an hour.

Pretty much. Bought Dredge and it seems pretty cool in comparison. Not diving, but fishing.

 

[xrnzaaas]

Dave the Diver is a huge game compared to Dredge. You'll still be getting new mechanics and things to do when 10 hours into the game.

I played it on PC, didn't finish it, but enjoyed my time with it. A good game to chill out, the sushi bar minigame is fun and exploring the depths isn't stressful despite the oxygen limit.

 

[Badlucktroll]

Those cutscenes in Rebel Assault II were so bad

 

[Skifi28]

I suppose it saved me 15 or so euros from buying Deliver us Mars on a sale, so not too bad.

 

[KimDongHwan]

They have had ample time to justify the price increase of Plus, this ain’t it. Dave the Diver looks cool, I’ll play it. But this BS at least one racing game and at least one Lego game (more multiples than one often) every month has to stop.

Yep!! It's always the indies saving the subscription, but I swear that they always add the same fillers, racing, sports game, gaas in need of new players, single player with micro transactions in need of new players, etc

 

[bender]

I just can't stand the Dredge's art-style.

 

[Topher]

I just can't stand the Dredge's art-style.

I can see that. I don't like or dislike it. It's ok. Game play is pretty good so far though.

 

[Lupin25]

Hit us with 1 good January after holiday hangover to justify the price increase then fucked off

 

[cash_longfellow]

Right…like I am waiting on some bigger budget games I have a slight interest in, but not enough to purchase, like Forspoken. There are several more but I don’t care to mention them because at this point I know they aren’t coming to Plus at any point (unless I buy them the month before lol)
