Are you a PlayStation Plus subscriber? Then get yourself over to the PSN Store and start filling up on this month’s content. The PS3 update for the, frankly astounding, subscription service is going up on the store as we speak – all you have to do is search for it.
This month you’ll be getting Mass Effect 3 and Dead or Alive 5 for everyone’s favourite price of “free.” If you happen to have loads of money sitting around gathering dust, you can justify these game’s inclusions in the Plus Instant Game Collection and pony up for any of the mountains of DLC available but both are perfectly enjoyable without the need to download any of the extras so definitely worth seeing how you enjoy the core games. You’ll also be receiving Joe Danger: The Movie (it’s a game, don’t worry) gratis, too.
Hopefully you’ve already grabbed Sleeping Dogs, Vanquish and Limbo though because that’s what’s coming down to make room for the new stuff.
Vita content isn’t changing over until next week so you still have time to grab WipEout 2048 for free before it’s replaced with Metal Gear Solid HD Collection next week. Lumines: Electronic Symphony will stick around in the Vita’s Instant Game Collection until March 20th when it’s replaced with Puddle.
I don’t wish to sound like I’m going on but Plus is really great, isn’t it?

Time to use one of my free plus months methinks. Only for F1 Race Stars, Quantum Conundrum & Joe Danger 2 though! :)
No plans to download DOA5 unfortunately motalla! ;P
skibadee
not sure you can do that more than once.
Forrest_01
I am pretty sure i have done it twice already now. I’ll try one of the others i have lying around & report back.
skibadee
any luck?
Forrest_01
Lol – See below motallas comment! :)
I did intend to ‘reply’, but for some reason it popped it on as a new comment.
So i think you are right – I am sure i have already done it twice though, which is just plain weird.
skibadee
bugger.
just go for it Forrest it will be worth it by the end of the year I’m sure.
Forrest_01
Truth be told, i did consider it, but i found a workaround that allowed me to use one of the free codes. :)
Motalla
D’OH !!!!!!!
Forrest_01
Actually, you might be right there – I have just checked the other two i had lying around & they are both saying that they may be incorrect or redeemed already.
Perhaps i am getting confused as i have done it over a couple of consoles (although that would be a little strange as i would have thought it was tied to the user). Oh well.

i’m looking forward to giving DOA a try.
the last one i played was, well, 4, and that was a real disappointment.
i’ll probably download ME3, why not, apart from the fact it has the worst ending ever, most of it was pretty enjoyable, and i can give the multiplayer a proper go now.
at least i assume i can, i wouldn’t be entirely surprised if the online pass wasn’t included.
there’s one thing i’m curious about though, have they patched Mass Effect 2 to be able to import ME1 saves now that they’ve released it on ps3?
and i see the ea execs are still living on bizarro world judging by the pricing of their tiger woods game.

I’d just checked out the ME3 online pass situation and it’s included as part of the digital version rather than a separate file
hazelam
cool, guess i will be playing multiplayer later. ^_^

Can anyone confirm if save game files from the disc version of Mass Effect 3 will work with the digital one or not? I don’t fancy giving up 13gig of HDD space and having to start the game from the beginning again.

Couldnt see Joe Danger on + last night
rSp8
Neither could I but using the search function found it, and it was free.
Forrest_01
Yeah, for some reason it isn’t in the instant game collection bit, but if you search for it, it is indeed free for plussers.

Utterly amazing deal traded in Doa5 and got some money but still got it on ps+. I also now have mass effect 3 as well plus Joe Danger. Incredible

PS Plus Instant Game Collection is literally the best thing Sony have done since they began Plus in the first place.
