GP writer Jared discusses what Sony did recently that made Playstation Plus a much better service nowadays than it used to be, and why it's important.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
FuRyu revealed on Friday its Exstetra fantasy role-playing game is getting an HD remaster that will launch this summer on Steam.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
That was your most nagging problem, lool there are bigger problems in the world than wanting to know what the free game is coming next. I really couldn't care any less about that problem
You DO REALIZE that all this whining is only going to cause Sony to backtrack and only make crappy games free onward, don't you?
Happened twice to me so far, vanquish and spec ops were two games I thought about buying then didn't and got em free on ps+ so I know this feeling.
I never really got how this was a problem... If you have to sit down and worry about it being free with plus at some point (typically months upon months upon months after release), then you probably didn't really want the game in the first place. I know when I want a game on the PSN, I just buy it and accept that I might get it for free at some point in the future. With this being said, what happened to supporting developers? People are quick to look down on the used / rental people (to a far lesser degree pirates), yet I see many of the same people crippled by the fact the game might be free with plus in the future. I mean sure they make money off it being free with plus, but you should support the games you like over worrying about $10 bucks.
Anyway, this article doesn't really have a point. Sony ORIGINALLY did monthly updates, but stopped due to inaccuracies. People complained a lot, so they're doing monthly updates again, which are getting less complaints overall. Needless to say, they're going to continue regardless of whither or not we support it, since it results in an overall better outlook on the PS blog.
I appreciate knowing whats ahead for the month of plus. Hopefully they keep it that way. It's still a surprise. Just a surprise once a month as opposed to once a week.
