Kena is awesome.

I clicked on the link and Bethesda gave away all their games this month. Sony got them all without buying them lol. Who needs Game Pass.

I was just downloading Ghostwire Tokyo with the free update on PS+ Extra. I can't keep up with all these games.

Good! Spider-Man will sell many copies with the upcoming movie.

They should also delete Horizon Forbidden West before the expansion comes out. I would delete it ASAP today.

The explanation is that they'll probably include the Remaster on PS+ soon, they removed the PS4 game.

I highly recommend Kena. Great game in my opinion.

True and I know you get a hard time around here but I want to say that you are a true gamer and I hope people remember that and don't get too carried away just because you have a different preference of console or a different opinion.

I more often agree with you when it comes to when we discuss things in the 'what we've been playing' thread.

Had a great time with Kena...just a few difficulty spikes that were a bit weird.

The PS5 remaster is already there.

Miles Morales too.

Edit : My mistake, the GOTY edition is there and Miles Morales, and the remaster is available to purchase through Miles Morales.

Sony store is so bad on PC that I can't even find out the Spider-man Remastered page to confirm.

Stuff like this is beyond me, how is it possible to have such an awful store in 2023? The guy responsible for this trash was even promoted to PlayStation CEO at some point lmao.The store on the console is just as bad, people asking for gifts and other features while I would just like a decent search function with relevant results.

Do you guys think it’s a coincidence that all these Bethesda games get announced the same day that the bad redfall news comes out? Is it Bethesda going around Microsoft and approving this because they as Bethesda want to stay in the good graces with Sonys fan base? Were these deals signed years ago before the buyout? Does sony know behind the scenes MS actually is going third party they just don’t want them owning abk specially?

Well, Bethesda essentially is MS. So MS is likely being paid for this.

I honestly think that this was agreed to years ago. Remember that rumor that Sony was going around behind the scenes throwing money at everyone when the Bethesda acquisition was announced? I bet this happened then, before the deal closed. Jim saw the writing on the wall and they were planning content drops for PS+ well into the future.

Haha, true. :)

I agree with the difficulty spikes with Kena. My biggest issue was actually with the end and final boss fight. That shit was insane to where I had to lower the difficulty level. Still great game though.

A lot of these games were already on PS Now before. I guess they just renewed the contract for that and made a new one for more recent stuff like Doom Eternal.

I wonder why Dino Crisis wasn't added and Resident Evil: Director's Cut is only available to purchase in some regions. It seems like there was a deal with Capcom that fell through or something.

Another awesome month. Btw, Microsoft keeps adding games to PS Plus.

Probably due to bugs.

It isn't a rumor, Sony always has been the console maker who signed more 3rd party exclusives and marketing deals with 3rd parties. Pretty much every single major publisher and key indie has been there. Same goes with signing their games for PS Plus.

Do you guys think it’s a coincidence that all these Bethesda games get announced the same day that the bad redfall news comes out?

Yes, it's a coincidence because MS already added many MS games to PS Plus before. They also released many games and DLCs on PS. I think there's no secret plan: MS simply wants to make money from PS players and this money they make on PS (or Switch) is part of why they bought these teams.

This sucks. I'd keep there both forever.
