Sucker Punch’s inFamous might have been one of PlayStation Plus’ first ‘try before you buy’ games, but it appears that it’s available to everyone anyway, at least over in the States. One of Plus’ main features was the ability for gamers to demo a couple of PlayStation 3 games each month, downloading the whole thing and playing for an hour.
Well, if inFamous is anything to go by, it looks like regular, nonplussed PS3 owners will still be able to buy and download the full versions of games as they hit the store, they just won’t be able to give them a test run first. inFamous is an odd game to start with, it’s such a high profile title that most will have already bought it anyway, but it’s worth noting that the download is 7GB, which is quite a whopper.
Update: early reports suggest inFamous is gameshareable. Odd.
In addition, Japanese gamers have awoken to find their Store is now PlayStation Plus ready (SCEE are yet to update) and it looks like they get Little Big Planet too for subscribing, alongside Toro Mini Golf, Pain, Echochrome and some avatars, all included in the fee.
We’ll have more from PlayStation Plus once the European version goes live.

Can you help a little bird?
Where the heck is LBP to download in my german PSN+ store?
Dlaf42
it only shows up when you buy the 1 year plus, i had two icons 1 year and 3 month. Once i bought the 1 year it showed a lbp icon to download the game
Dlaf42
also i have just noticed everything you buy off plus store has an expire date now, 1 year in my case 29/6/2010-29/6/2011. except lbp which does not
Deathbrin
Well a year is enough, next year there may be a discount if you still want more of that game?
Deathbrin
Actually wait, that’s if you got the year subscription i guess, so each will lead to 29/6/11 no matter what time you got the game? If you had 3 months it would just lead to your expiry date?

ah, im ready for ps+, got my wallet topped up with cheap ass psn cards, just gotta wait until 6 oclock to finish work. ive been watching lost over the past month so now thats finally oput of the way, plenty of time to play wipeout hd, which ive never played before.
SpikeyMikey23
on a side note, can anyone tell me if wipeout hd includes fury (i think its called that) or will that be an additional download for a price ( or possibly a freebie on ps+)
Voegelchen
Wipeout Fury is on discount next month. So I think its not included.
I bought the one year subscription. But I cant find LBP for download :( Is it supposed to be in the PSN+ tab of the Store?
SpikeyMikey23
ah cool, saves me from splashing out for the dlc full price, ill wait until its discounted, cheers buddy

It would make sense to make the downloadable games available to all. More moolah!
