Although it's not mentioned Hustle kings also includes the vita version when you redeem it on PS3

You mean 2/3 of the phantom pain is awesome, until knonami pulled the plug.

Good month. I wanted to buy Metal Gear last month but I am glad I didn't now. :relaxed:

Would never in a million years have expected Phantom Pain! I have the game but still s**t hot!

MS better come up with the goods next month!

Bought MGSV when it first came out...and still have'nt touched it!

The vast majority of games are available on both consoles. There is 0 point in me buying a 2nd console.

To be fair I also own a gaming PC but without it I still wouldn't pick an Xbox up.

You have to add them to your libary but not actually downloading isn't an issue. They'll still be there for as long as you're subbed.

I hope SFV is added to plus I need more players to play against.

Do you have to download/install these games before the following month? or is it a case of once its in your downloads list its yours for as long as your plus account is active?

Another month and still no Knack, I have had it PS+ canceling my sub as soon as it expires in 2019 :rage:

Same here. The graphics on the PS3 version were impressive. I'm hoping the PS4 version blows me even further away.

Shame the plot was never properly finished though.
Maybe one day Hideo Kojima will produce a fan-sponsered conclusion, a-la Shenmue 3.

Yes finally! :grin:
Amnesia collection is first in the dl queue :grin:

Games are available for download. Add the games to your basket and you should be able to checkout with no cost.

Metal Gear Solid V

Amnesia Collection

Monster Jam Battlegrounds

Hustle Kings

Sky Force Anniversary

So excited for the games this month :D. Just waiting for them to be released. Still no sign on PS Store.

So if I use my 14 day free membership code I got with my new console, can I bag MGS for free or does it only apply for full paid up members?

I have Metal Gear on three Platforms and I've Played the Shit out of it,never gets boring even replaying the story.

Actually wanted the White PS4 Pro with FIFA 18, but it only comes with Destiny 2, so I bought it and hopefully will sell destiny 2 to buy FIFA 18.

MGSV is a great game. Definitely need to invest the hours into it to get the most out of it. I just wish I didn't put so much time into the PS3 version to only just go and do it all again for the ps4. :disappointed:

haha.

Agree 100%.

I own both. I feel no loyalty to either... really don't understand those that feel passionately for one or other, I have a preference for sure but no to the extent I would run the other down and to say the xbox doesn't have any "good exclusives" is nonsense.

Thank you!! :smile:

Tuesday :smile:

metal gear solid is still showing up at full-price? When does this become available for free for ps+ members? :dizzy_face:

I'm pretty sure I've played Amnesia but I can't remember. :grin:

I only just realised that, I thought they were totally free with XBL. I've learned something today!

I stand corrected, I didn't know it was the same deal as PS Plus for free Xbox One games on XBL!

Kojima always wanted you to avoid conflict wherever possible and the older games punished you massively for being spotted.
MGSV:TPP retains a little of that imperative by throwing a few hostage missions in but thankfully, most of the missions can be played how you like (ammo / money allowing).

There was a time when we had patience and perseverance for games like the originals but I know I've grown impatient.
I remember nearly selling MGS4 because I got sick of being detected so often early on.. I gave it another try after a week and something clicked (I played it through 3 times after that!)
I threw my teddy out of the pram when Bloodborne sent me back 30 minutes for the 3rd time... I plan to have another go soon... maybe after a Radox bath and some herbal remedy :stuck_out_tongue:

I think MS only let you keep the 360 games - the XB1 titles stop working as soon as your sub ends iirc.

Yep

It's a bit like a drm game . You have to have ps+ to play

I agree... I managed to get 2 years for about £40, I don't play online but the free games come in handy.

The Xbox store works the same way though (360 games aside) no active membership, no free games...

I wasn't best pleased to hear of the price increase in PS Plus a few months ago, especially as I have an XBL account to pay as well. But in fairness Sony really have been pulling out the stops this past few months with the free to play games. It's just a shame Sony don't actually allow you to own the games like Xbox - it almost feels like being bribed into staying a member. Ah well, great games and well done to Sony for stepping up their game

MGS V could have been one of the best games ever made if they didn't have the development issues they had.

Was one of the few games i've played i never wanted to end (until the 2nd part that gets repetitive.

They're console exclusive. In the same way that you could technically play some PS exclusives on the PC through PS Now but 'technically' they'd still be exclusive.

I'm well into middle age... I really can't be having conversations about which plastic box is best under the telly when most of them are a couple of hours wages. I feel like i'm grooming teenage boys here...

Most of those games you listed aren't exclusive.

Not really, the story is pretty self contained.

Also, the games aren't in Chronological order. Phantom Pain is set in 1984, only a few games in the series that are earlier than that.

The only downside I can see is that if you then want to play MGS1-4, is that MGSV plays so much better than the earlier games that it's hard to get into them. I recently got 2 & 3 HD for the Vita to take on holiday but couldn't get used to switching back to the old gameplay.

It had potential to be the best game ever made imo just Konami got fed up of the milestone/budget extensions so we only got 1/3rd of a game.

I don't know who said it was 10/10 but they must only have played Act 1.



Well you can take Gears and Halo out of that list since they're both the worst in their respective series. I hope Crackdown and Cuphead turn out well for you guys.

WOW quality game, my brother was considering buying it a few weeks back.

Not to Mention PUBG. That game is going to sell a lot of XBOX's when it comes out.

well i'm glad i only paid a fiver for mgs

These all free on PlayStation plus?

Yes, you're right.

Gears of War, Forza, Halo, Killer Instinct, State of Decay are all boring... The 'mates' thing I get though, fair play.

to add to this, yes you can get it while its free and not download it until like 6 months from now if you wish, as long as you are still a PS+ member.
If you cancel your PS+ membership, any plus games you've got over that time become inaccessible.
Any games you bought with a plus discount however are yours to download again whenever.

I have never played any MGS game but fancy this (cos its free!)... will i need to play the others to get whats going on?

Sorry new to this. If I "purchase" MGS but dont download when it is free can I still download it months from now when I finally get round to playing it. Worried about filling up the hardrive.
edit looks like clonereeco has answered

I was not aware that I could use a portable external , thought it was only one powered by mains , would still prefer internal though so that way I've only got 1 drive to mess around with

@NaughtyDog it's these ps+ games , they all add up very quickly , I know I could easily fill 1tb instantly with games I have on my library but not currently downloaded because of a space issue

Since Xbox doesn't have many exclusives at all, and none that are interesting enough to warrant the spend on a dust collector, and multi platform always better on PS4.. no mates have an Xbox.... so yeah.. :kissing_heart:

I have 3 ps4's and a 2tb external drive and I'm pressed for space :thinking:

Unbelievable

Hot Buzz.

Nice for the Sony guys to get a good month for a change.

Amnesia is awesome.

Its 2017, do people still only own one console?

​I hear chapter 2 was not at all as they planned it. Very rushed. I decided not to bother with it and trade the game in when I realised it was mainly just repeating the same old missions with very arbitrary conditions to make it more difficult. (I did read the end of the story though which was cool).

Chuffed it's on PS plus now though. Maybe I'll get around to those missions one day. The gameplay is top notch...

i take it this is like the new(ish) xbox rules whereby i have to continuously be a member to enjoy the content? ie, i can't just sign up for a month, rinse the downloads, then enjoy them forever?

BOOM! Only on Playstation.

Great line up!

Just don't understand how mgs is a 10/10 game. It's basically the same 2 or 3 mission types 30 times then new game+ stuck on the end. 8/10 maybe but not the perfect game come on.

I'd say the same as I would to anyone considering upgrading their HD, go for a 2TB. You'd be amazed at how even that can get quite close to filling up :thumbsup:

Waved to myself. The joy of having both consoles.

Perfect thank you will download this

https://www.hotukdeals.com/visit/thread/2800883

Skyforce, Hue and Amnesia for me. Good month indeed!

Portable HDD with a 1ft USB cable sat right next to your PS4, surely that wouldn't be too traumatic?

I would do that but I just can't stand anymore cables on my desk so would prefer it to be internal , I have plenty of hard drives about the house but they are all being used , my original ps4 is still going strong but I think if it does I'll be upgrading to a ps4 pro , either that or I'll just shove a 1tb+ inside and download everything again

Isn't Hustle Kings free to play on PS4?
Or is it a demo? I've got it but never really bothered with it much. Prefer a real game of pool.

Buy an external. As long as it's over 250gb and USB 3.0, it should work fine with your PS4.

I grabbed a used one from Cex. 2 year no quibble warranty as standard.
Of course, losing your installs would be a pain if it died, but drives are so expensive nowadays, it might be your best bet if you're on a budget.
I got a 2TB Toshiba one for £45. Pretty decent. Works great.

MGS 3 was superb, but I thought 4 was decent. Good for fans especially.

The Rex versus Ray giant robot battle was great. As was catching up with Ada, Meryl and Big Boss.

EDIT- I think I've convinced myself to replay it. :smile:

500gb hard drive isn't enough :cry:‌ :cry:‌ :cry:

Id forgotten how good they were

Wow, heat for MGSV. So glad I didn't buy it now! :skull_crossbones:

You lucky people who don't already own MGSV are in for a treat! A genuine 10/10 game. The last few months have been class, but those of us who regularly buy games arejust getting stuff we already own. Great to see Sony upping their game though.

Can anyone who's played the Vita games tell me anything decent about them? Seems they were picked for their cross-buy capability first and foremost (as per usual). :neutral_face:

You can continue from the save you had on disk version.

I'm trying to come up with a reason to moan about this. The problem I have now is that I had months of crap monthly games I didn't want to play, and now suddenly I've got several good games that I could've been playing in that time and don't have time to play them all now. That's the best I've got. Oh and they need to stop putting 'That's You' in each month, it's not a monthly game if it's going to be free every damn month.

Metal Gear Solid has been crap since 3.

If you already own a game MGS and download it off ps plus do you have to start from the beginning or will it save your previous game you had on disk

I need to renew my playstation plus in october lol.
Any good deals on the internet? :grin:

Wow, another excellent month. Sony are really on a roll at the moment...

I've finished MGS and Hue and thb I enjoyed Hue more. Don't get me wrong MGS is a great game but it's not a 10 out 10 game that IGN gave it.

Since Sony put there prices up there free games have been so much better before phantom rain wasent the month before last they gave away just cause so the months are looking good ahead just hoping there 12 deals before xmas are tidy :thumbsup:

On it's own but if you've been on Plus long enough, you'll already have (the disappointing) Ground Zeroes.

MGS.. Nearly bought this in the summer sale. Glad I held off.
Heat from me

Fantastic, some games I don't have :grin:

Giving away MGS 5.....Sony this is Madness!!!

MGS V is a brilliant game (for the first 70 hours at least) and anyone who hasn't got it is in for a treat.

Is it MGS: TPP Definitive Edition? Or just TPP alone? Will it have GZ?

MGS V as free game. Wow...I have the game but I'm not even disappointed because everyone is getting amazing value for money with this month ! What a game surely one of the best main offerings from a month true masterpiece of a game . Hope Sony keep up the value of free titles on offer going forward . What a time to buy into ps plus in October

Don't think it did particularly well. I know MGS has a pretty niche following as it is. Only 1 person on my friends list bought this game lol.

not sure if xbox or ps freebies are better this month i don't care i have both so heat added and lets hope all months can be like this.

Yeah, it'll be nice to have it digital too though, so I won't have to switch discs as often.

Sky Force is a great game and quite addictive

Even though I already own The Phantom Pain, this is so much better than the crap we xbox one owners are getting next month.

Sounding like a fan boy but last 4 months Sony have knocked it out of the park! Triple A titles each month

Hot hot hot. That’s a few AAA titles the last few months

Terrible Vita games as usual. Why always indie crap?

PS3 might be okay. Always liked Trials. Monster Jam seems similar and that shmup doesn't look too taxing. I don't have the motor skills for Ikaruga style games.

MGS 5 is a decent giveaway. Shame the ending is so ****, but that's Konami's fault. Not Sony's. The other game looks pants, but hey ho.

Mixed feelings.

Happy to get MG

Amnesia...sweeeeeeeeeet! Resubbing.

Glorious

:0 MGSV! A side of me is like.. bar stewards give me a decent game I haven't got for god sake but this is the best month ps+ has EVER had great for folks who don't already have metal gear.. can't be many surely?

I platted Metal Gear Solid. By the end, my pain wasn't phantom...it was very much real.

That reminds me, still need to finish mgs.

Winner of the month goes to Sony, this is an incredible lineup. Metal Gear is AMAZING - though at times it can get a bit repetitive.

I'm glad I didn't rebuy mgs the other day.

Did really enjoy the gameplay. Story was a bit out there tbh. But getting to go through again will be good.

Also amnesia, two heavy hitters titles for ps+ is surprising.

The inclusion of Metal Gear absolutely trumps even the rumoured Xbox GWG list from yesterday!

Can almost justify the PSN price increase... (maybe not)

Hue is OK too - more puzzle than platformer.
Floated my boat for a few hours anyway :smile:
Cross-save but only a handful of trophies.

Awesome. Amnesia games are brilliant!

You sad person posting this so quickly! Tut :b great month for PS4 but terrible for PS3 again, a lot of people said it would be MGSV on forums.

PS4 games are great, definitely two worth playing to the end. Sad to see the PS3 and Vita (Sky Force is actually good) get neglected though but still happy with the month overall.

Metal Gear Solid!?!?! That was out of nowhere! Give us Knack! :joy:

MGSV is a great game. Unfortunately I bought it with the exclusive console back in 2015.

Another good PS Plus month. Hopefully the price increase will keep the quality increase going!

WHOA MGS V? Too bad I've played it for more than 500 hours.

Really? Our Psvr not yet setup. But our library definitely filling up with all these psn deals

Rigs... Rigs why isnt that in title :smile:

How long to the usual moans and groans and threats to cancel their PS plus? A good month.

Nice lineup.

Good month for ps4 owners... heat.

I imagine most people have MGS by now... those that want it anyway been well below a tenner for ages..

Another incredible month - surely we'll have no entitled whinges this time!
MGSV:TPP is one of the best games this generation (once you get to Afghanistan) and Hue is a lovely little puzzle platformer :smile:

I don't think I've played Amnesia before :stuck_out_tongue:
Looking forward to playing that & Sky Force too.

Phantom Pain is a gem :thumbsup:

Great line up this month, looking forward to the Amnesia Collection. Sky Force is supposed to be wicked.

MGS V, fantastic!

MGS V is one of the best games I've played this gen. Story may have been underwhelming but the visuals, music and gameplay are all absolutely stellar and I've put over 100 hours into it, anyone getting it from PS Plus is getting an absolute bargain.

The Amnesia series is also well worth a play.

Genuinely brilliant month, props to Sony.

Fantastic month and I don't own any of these for a change!

A new VR game would have been good. Got excited when I saw Hustle Kings in the title.

To be fair, this month is absolute fire. Hell of a line-up.

Do you always have to be first to post... :kissing_heart:

Awesome!

*waves to xbox owners* :face_with_monocle:

Yeeeeeah I nearly bought MGS today because I wanted to play it again. This is even better because that was on Xbone so I'll get a few trophies in the process now.Thanks for putting the time in to mske the list too.

Bought MGSV earlier this year and clocked over 200 hours playing it. Great game.

This list trashed out the XO one...

Sky Force is surprisingly good game.

Cracking! Don't understand why Rigs is still there for another month though.. have there been a load of new VR sales so they're trying to temp more people in??

Would never have expected Phantom Pain to be given away

Good month!

Nice

Wow, incredible month.

Wow Metal Gear is awesome
