PS3node: Hamsterball Review

For those of you who yearn for more games in the style of Super Monkey Ball or Marble Madness, your choices are limited. You could pick up Katamari Forever and, well, that's about it. So when Hamsterball emerges and presents itself as the scratch to satisfy both itches, it's difficult not to be curious. You can overlook the title and the fact that you play as a hamster because, well, you did play Super Monkey Ball. Unfortunately, Hamsterball lacks something that keeps it from being the solution to all your animal-rolling-in-a-ball woes: fun

PlayStation Plus Hidden Gem: Hamsterball

“There are tons of PS3 games that you can stream with PlayStation Plus and Hamsterball is one of the weirdest but it's also super-fun.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.

There's never been a better time to join PS Plus

A clumped mass of games is hitting PSN next month, and a lot of it is free to PS Plus subscribers. Including Awesomenauts, the multiplayer battle arena style game from the creators of another former freebie a la PS Plus called Swords & Soldiers.

The list of free games goes on and on, most likely totaling somewhere in the range of $100 worth. For PS3 gamers that have not yet signed up for a Plus subscription may want to consider next month as the best time to do so.

Remember though, nearly all PS Plus freebie are only free for a one week period, thereafter going for the full price, so you want to be punctual.

Trine 2 and Rock of Ages is pretty great.

I thought I was the only noticing the sudden wave of good PS+ deals. So many things I've wanted to get in the PS store are PS+ only. I'll never be a member though. I refuse to pay for online.

PirateThom5134d ago

It's not paying for online, it's paying for game content up front.

Outside_ofthe_Box5134d ago

^^^ Not necessarily as not everything is free. But whatever you want to call it I refuse to pay. I'm glad that I have the option to choose.

Bathyj5134d ago

I think I'll have to get Max Payne.
I just wish it was a HD remake.

dboyman5134d ago

Looks promising though Sony needs more PSN Plus "goodies" for PS Vita...

catfrog5134d ago

they also need to bring cloud saving for ps+ to vita

Ducky5134d ago

I'd say this month's free Shift2 and Shank2 were a better time to join.

Hicken5134d ago

Shank 2 is a yes. Shift 2? I could do without that game ever touching my PS3 again.

goflyakite5134d ago

I think they're still there so if you sign up before next Tuesday you'll have everything.

KosmoCrisis5134d ago

Both Shift 2 and Shank 2 are previously released titles. May's freebies are comprised of several NEW releases. Tallying the monetary value in the two months so far shows May as the better month, but as @goflyakite said, newbies could get everything if they get on now.

Der_Kommandant5134d ago

If Max Payne doesn't convince you to go plus, maybe nothing will.

badz1495134d ago

If later on there will be GTA 3 or Vice City or San Andreas HD free for PS+ user? GTA V is on the way, there is every possibilities that it can happen! If it does happen, MEGATON and if it still can't convince people to go Plus, only then I think nothing else will!
