It was a year ago when Sony announced that PlayStation Plus would have something called the Instant Game Collection. That service would see a monthly rotation of PlayStation 3 games (later expanded to include PlayStation Vita games too) and – in addition – a trio of games that would remain the same throughout the year.
For the last twelve months, in among all the monthly titles that came and went (and there has been some real crackers), Sony offered European PlayStation Plus subscribers the brilliant LittleBigPlanet 2, the expansive inFamous 2 and near-future racer MotorStorm Apocalypse. Soon, those titles will be replaced with another set of games that’ll stay for a year.
So, what are we getting in their place? Well, how about the rather splendid Nathan Drake in Uncharted 3 (well, the single player at least)? And how about some LittlebigPlanet Karting, from the guys that made ModNation Racers featuring everyone’s favourite burlap mascot. And finally, you’ll be able to grab XCOM: Enemy Unknown, a neat third party offering.
Remember to grab LBP2, inFamous 2 and MotorStorm before the 12th of June, as that’s when the games will swap over.

I’ll nab XCOM and I’ll give LBP Karting a bash too.
As good as Uncharted 3 is though there is no way in hell I’m getting rid of my blu-ray and making 60GB worth if free space or so.

I’ve been wondering about xcom – not usually my kind of game but think if its really good I should try it. Ihave uc3 – a brilliant one, go download it if you haven’t played it! Lbp karting might be fun! I’ll need to finish downloading inf2, wanna play that as I loved the first one. Cheers Sony

I’ll give LBPK and XCOM a whirl,though I have got 5 or 6 games from PS plus I’ve yet to play. I think I shall hold out buying any new games for a while!

Great new. Even for North America in the future.
Uncharted 3 next week?
