The Instant Game Collection for EU members surpasses even more expectations in May, by giving it's members the impressive "Hitman Absolution" from Square Enix.
After some very impressive reviews and not even six months, the guys at Playstation EU dropped this Tweet a short while ago...

"PS Plus members: your headline IGC game for May will be.... *drumroll* Hitman Absolution. We'll reveal four additional titles next week."

I personally cannot wait!!

Yeah the first year I signed up was rubbish!

PeaSFor4785d ago

been a member since the first day, i didnt even had a "rubbish" month since the beggining, sure there's discounts or games i dont necessarily HAD to get, but to call it "rubbish" would be simply ingrate and out of touch with reality, i am well aware that not ALL GAMES are made for my taste....but i wont spit in the soup and then call it "rubbish" too.

Sandmano4785d ago (Edited 4785d ago )

I got it the first day. Compared to the second year First year plus was RUBBISH!!!! Stupid mini games and games that people already had so out of touch with reality ? No it's fact that the first year was rubbish compared to the second.0

Europe has it awesome for PS Plus.

Sony of America seriously need to try and get all those nice titles.

HarryMasonHerpderp4785d ago

America get everything else though, more games, better prices/deals, everything is almost always on time and they always take priority. PS plus is the only good thing we have on the EU store.

jdktech20104785d ago (Edited 4785d ago )

Ok, then they won't mind when I don't renew my subscription. It sucks you guys don't get better deals and games and all that but if I'm paying hard earned money, I don't want to get shafted by the lackluster content. Granted, we haven't seen what US will get but EU got sleeping dogs, arkham city, ME3, Okami HD, etc. recently while we just caught up and got vanquish (which EU had early last year if I remember right) and demon souls (which is nice even if it's a 4 year old game).

I'm glad you guys are getting good content but it's kinda sorry to pay 50 dollars and get lackluster content. Again, I think PS+ is a good well intentioned service over here in America as we do get free games but I don't believe I will be re upping in June.

Anyway, I would LOVE to have Hitman this month as it's been on my radar for a while. Congrats to you european playstation gamers.

HarryMasonHerpderp4785d ago

America shouldn't get screwed over with PS+ and the EU shouldn't get screwed over with everything else. If i had it my way we would all get the exact same content. There's just so many dumb barriers in the way, I mean if we can make an EU/NA/JPN account no matter what region we live in (Sony must know we do that) then why can't all of the games be available on every store officially?
I'm hoping the Playstation store gets a huge shake up for the PS4 and we get 99% of the same content in every region I'll let that 1% slide lol.

Baka-akaB4785d ago (Edited 4785d ago )

I dont feel you guys are that screwed , you still get good games on us plus that we dont always have or wont have immediately .

Hell you still had Demon's Souls , super street fighter 4 AE , Borderlands , King of Fighters XIII and Spec Ops while some of the neat EU stuff are also popular games than many of us already had .

If anything your list made me think it's absolutely vital to have both accounts in plus

Sharius4785d ago

what if i tell you:

you can alway creat an EU account, buy plus member through prepaid card, download the game and switch to your main acc and play

HarryMasonHerpderp4785d ago

It's a great idea for the PS3, but the Vita not so much.
There are games on the US store that I REALLY want such as Dino Crisis 2, Legend of dragoon, Parasite Eve, Xenogears, Chrono Cross and so on. Problem is I want them for my Vita since they're ten times easier on the eyes on a small screen, Sony though decided we can only have 1 account on the Vita and it's also restricted to the memory card you use and switching accounts is a HUGE pain in the ass to be honest. You have to restart the Vita to factory settings and have an extra memory card to do so. It sucks! >_<

Baka-akaB4785d ago

It does suck but at least it's still possible . I usually just stick a whole month with either a jap or eu account before switching

Salooh4785d ago

@HarryMasonHerpderp
It is possible because i'm doing it. I'm playing Ninja gaiden right now on vita. but when i'm done i will transfer the game to the pc and then restore the vita and get in europe account again. It's that simple but still annoying as hell ...

MadLad4785d ago

I will give you this one.
Just grabbed on Steam for ten bucks.
Thought that one was a steal. Still do, but you still win this round.

Blastoise4785d ago

I'm eager to see what the Vita titles are

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.

solideagle18d ago

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

Relientk7718d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde25d ago

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.

Soy25d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12525d ago (Edited 25d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga26d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199226d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga26d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac26d ago (Edited 26d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman25d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger26d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box26d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion25d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7226d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7526d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit26d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14926d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7726d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
