September’s PS+ Includes Grow Home, Teslagrad, And Twisted Metal

The votes have been counted and verified and Norway have scored null points. No. Wait, wrong thing, I mean Grow Home is the first game to be selected by public vote to join the PlayStation Plus line up.

Grow Home is the story of BUD, a Botanical Utility Droid sent on a mission across the galaxy to seek out a new species of flora to help oxygenate his home world. He finds the perfect specimen in the Star Plant. You’ll help the plant grow as you climb to the top. Along the way you’ll travel through a series of floating islands, crafting your own playground in the sky.

September’s goodies also include Super Time Force Ultra on PS4 and PS Vita, Teslagrad on PS4 and PS3, Twisted Metal on PS3, La-Mulana EX on PS Vita, and Xeodrifter on PS4 and PS Vita.

  1. Hmmm, not heard of most of those games. Not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing tbh! :D

    • Can’t say that I’ve benefited from the offerings this gen either, happy to pay the sub for the hooked up connection though sometimes :P

  2. The Instant Games Collection is now officially crap.

    The backlog is nearly done, Vita sold, I think I will grab tail and get out of my PS plus sub as soon as possible.

    • Agree!
      It was fantastic value on PS3 but on ps4, c’mon! I might not even add these to my download list because I’ll just end up deleting them a couple of minutes later.

      • As I’ve said before the trouble is PS3 had years of AAA titles to chose from as Plus was launched quite far into PS3’s run,PS4 has only been out a few years and doesn’t have the luxury of large back catalogue of triple A games,so they can’t really give what they haven’t got at the moment.

      • Pixel_nme I share your frustration and sentiment, though I would disagree with the number of AAA, there must surely be a load of games to cherry pick now…

        Need For Speed Rivals. Oh, it’s an EA title so won’t happen.
        Battlefield 4, they release BF3 on PS3’s PS+. Oh, it’s an EA title so won’t happen.
        Knack. OK, not a great game but still better than the ‘indie’ rubbish.
        Diablo 3. It’s over a year old now and would be great for getting people to play co-op online.
        Rayman Legends, again, over a year old.
        The Last Of Us Remastered is now well over a year old and itself is a remaster of what is now a very old game.
        Geometry Wars 3 is around 9 months old and indie looking so Sony should be loving this one.
        Tomb Raider DE is over a year and a half old now.

        Surely Sony could be looking at some of the above titles which surely aren’t selling highly any more, surely they could do a lot better than the endless stream of indie titles we receive.

  3. I doubt I’ll bother even adding any of these to my library, let alone download them.

    It’s a shame Armello didn’t win, I was looking forward to giving it a go.

    • It’ll be on offer at least as a runner-up – definitely my pick too!

  4. I’ll probably try Grow Home and I’ll download Twisted Metal but probably never play it. The others… If it looks like it was made for Gameboy I won’t even touch it. Hate that pixelated crap. Great month for those who do like those games though I guess.

    If my sub ran out this month I wouldn’t renew it for these games but I’m signed up forever so I take the good months with the bad months.

    • I agree about the pixel games. I didn’t spent all that Monday buying a PlayStation 4 to get bombarded with games thay could be played on the PlayStation 2 or my old phone.

  5. Yeah I think i’ll try grow home, been hearing good things about. Teslagrad sounds familiar, will check it out on youtube.

  6. I’m with everyone else – it’s barely worth continuing my sub now as I rarely get chance to play online these days and the standard of + games has taken a real nose dive since PS4 came along… Plenty of indie shovelware with the rare gem cropping up but no top class games in an awful long time.

    True what they say I guess – all good things must come to an end :-(

    • I’m getting more and more disillusioned with the service after tonight’s no PS4 connection…..just had a GT6 online meet on the previous hardware iteration so why can’t I connect to the current hardware online whilst there is an obvious PSN connectivity…ah fuck it I’m off to lie down to squeeze monkey nut shells!

  7. Looking forward to Grow Home.
    Teslagrad is a great puzzle platformer (already have the platinum).
    I was really hoping Super Meat Boy was going to be out next month (as it’s going to be a plus freebie), looks like it’s October at the earliest now.

  8. Looks like a good line up, especially for my Vita. Looking forward to it!

  9. Think I’m in the minority again… The entire list of games is right up my street. Probably helped by the fact I buy most physical games I want around launch. Having a selection of mostly digital games that I’d struggle to pay the full price for included in the sub is perfect. Time force ultra in particular looks ace.

  10. I missed the vote completely, bigger. I think I’ll have Grow Home and La-Mylanta, both look quite interesting.
