PlayStation Plus (PS+) has always offered a great variety of games for players, but what does the service look like on the developer side of things?
Tackle the topic of dementia head-on in an emotional walking simulator/collect-em-up on PS4 and Steam.
Author writes "Both Sony PS Plus and Microsoft Xbox Games with Gold include some excellent free games as part of their service this month. But who wins February?"
"Too bad PS4 owners won’t be able to play it as a backward compatible game, huh?"
Which is a shame, because this would have been an awesome month for PSplus.
Unfortunately for myself, I have already packed up my PS3 (and 360) to clear some shelf space when I got my X. Hopefully for next gen (and if the patent rumors are true) Sony will offer a lot more titles on PS+ that range from all their previous consoles.
Yeah, but you don't get MGS4 playable on the PS4. That would have been cool to have the PS3 PS+ free games playable on PS4.
That doesn't change the fact that it's a great month for PlayStation+ members.
That does change the fact completely. Especially for those that don't own a PS3.

Both are offering 4 games playable on current gen consoles (2 AAA & 2 indie games)…
For PS4 the 2 AAA games are: For Honor & Hitman 1; while the 2 indie games are: Gunhouse & Rogue Aces
For Xbox One the 2 AAA games are: Assassin's Creed: Rogue & Star Wars: Jedi Academy; while the 2 Indies games are: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon & Super Bomberman R...
The only difference is that the 2 AAA games for Xbox One are old gen games…while the 2 AAA games for PS4 is current gen

PS4's offering could be better with back compat…But its still better than Xbox One's offerings

Yeah, not really comparing the offerings from both Xbox and PlayStation though.
But GWG already offered For Honor a while ago and Hitman is on Game Pass for anyone who subscribes to enjoy.
So its not an awesome month for anyone because you packed up your PS3? smh Still a better month for Plus then GWG regardless.
"August is here and now that both Microsoft and Sony have announced their free games lineup for the month via Games With Gold and PlayStation Plus it’s time to look at which is offering the better value for gamers."
If you look at each services free games. You will see that GWG also has re-released a couple titles multiple times, and that Plus tends to beat it to the punch with more relevant titles that make their way to Live a month or more after.
Do you mean that GWG has offered the same game free more than once b/c no I'm pretty sure they haven't. Also both services tend to have a lot of carryover. trackmania Turbo and Trials Fusion were on GWG long before they came to PS+.
Nice.
that's the problem PS+ has become a propaganda machine for indie games instead of a premium service for consumers
