If I recall correctly you seemed to enjoy Assault Android Cactus at PAX a couple of years back

Dear lord, I deleted a post earlier saying I bet the games are crap I've never heard of with names like Metal Assault Alpha.

That's what I ended up voting for. I think it's what we played last year? It was fun at the time, but I think I spent all of about five minutes with it and it didn't leave a lasting impression.

Doesn't matter anyway as it's coming in third on the list already and Broforce is well in front making it the most likely winner.

I wonder why they haven't provided an option of, here's three games for PSPlus - choose one, and that's your free game for the month. Seems like an equally fair option to voting.

Probably doesn't work logistically. I'm sure Sony has to pay the devs for giving their games away, or something of the sort. So if you do it your way, they'd have to pay for an extra 2 games per month, which would probably cost them a fortune over time

Presumably they pay the developers a fee based on how many people are downloading the game. If they offered everyone a "1 of 3" option, I doubt that would cost them 3 times as much as offering a single game.

I think it is more likely that they don't want to give customers too much choice. If I could choose exactly what games I got from PS+, I'd never buy anything else.

That's understandable. I was under the impression that all of the games that are up for voting will then not be considered as being part of the collection down the line - meaning, that they could give a 25% discount (like they do now where it's tiered - 1st Free 2nd 25% discount 3rd 15% discount) to the two games that you didn't 'buy' with PS Plus.

The Last Guy huh. Man... that's pretty darn old. A great game though, so glad it's finally getting the spotlight in PSPlus. Bloody difficult though.

April's line up is:

PS4:

Zombi (not even a Fulci reference with this one)
Dead Star

PS3:

I Am Alive
Savage Moon

PSVita:

A Virus Named Tom
Shutshimi

Some interesting games that I'm glad I haven't directly bought. I'll give Zombi a shot. Am quite keen to try out I Am Alive as it was always on my 'to play' games.

Will definitely try out Tropico 5. I nearly bought it when it was on special a while back.

May's output:

PS4

Tropico 5
Table Top Racing

PS3

Bionic Commando Rearmed 2
LocoRoco Cocoreccho!

PSVita

God of War: Ghost of Sparta
Switch Galaxy Ultra (also on PS4)

Some good games this month - in my opinion. Like Moo, I nearly bought Tropico 5 when it was on special but opted out of it. A lot of people were predicting Watch Dogs this month, so maybe that'll be in the future.

I do hope down the line that NieR is added as a PS3 game closer to when NieR: Automata comes out to get people on board with it.

Does anyone get an issue where you can't connect to the store even though online is functioning in every other sense? For the last few days I've been stuck at the "Please wait" screen with no luck. I want to download Gone Home.

Seems okay for me. Perhaps try claiming the game via store.playstation.com and tell it to download it to your PS4, and see if that works?
