  1. Meanwhile… PS Plus games for January:

    – Nokia Snake
    – Fruit Ninja
    – Resident Evil 6
    – ET The Game
    – FIFA 97

    • I’d take Fruit Ninja (VR tho!) but FIFA 98 was way better than 97, it had lethal strong tackles!

    • Possibly not the best plan to take the piss out of PS+ in response to a list of games of which 50% were on PS+ 3 years ago.

      And one of the other 2 is some sort of tower defense disguised as an ARPG game.

      • Taking the piss out of the Plus lineup is almost tradition at this point.

        I tried to think of the worst possible lineup for Plus but looking at it now, it’s actually not THAT bad next to the actual lineup’s we’ve had in recent months – at least we’ve actually heard of these games.

        To be fair none of those games on the Gold list appeal to me either. Maybe Rayman Origins at a push but even then I’d rather not play anything if I’m being honest.

        There are plenty of other (better) games to play so I’m not about to rally a protest outside Sony HQ or anything. I just can’t remember the last time I actually wanted to play one of Sony’s Plus offerings.

        True, Sony gave us most the these Gold games years ago but there’s definitely room for improvement.

  2. I recently purchased the gears of war Xbox when it released 10/7 .. I can honestly say xbox games with gold n the ea access program gives better free to play titles than Sony PS +by far.. I’m playing burnout Paradise as a free title whooo whooo

  3. As far as I can see every time I look at my sons games with gold AND EA Access list of games… I have had most of them on PS Plus already at some point.

    Burnout Paradise while we’re on the subject… PS Plus.. June 2011.
