I certainly was after posting. ROFL. I figured I'd leave it for comical value than editing.

It was a good brain fart though. I had a good laugh, and so did you.

And I agree with you that's a solid month, albeit nothing that really interests me. Can't win every refresh.

 

[onnextflix5]

Still no ps2 games . Barely any ps1 and psp games, with the price increase and poor games, will not renew. Everyone do the same, don’t just downgrade to essential , or they will never get the message.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

People have already mentioned this, but please do yourself a favor and give 13 Sentinels a try.

 

[dotnotbot]

They should get their heads out of their asses and offer more PS1/PS2/PSP emulated classics instead of PS4 remasters. Even the streaming service is lacking many titles PS Now had.

 

[Crayon]

Yo that's pretty good for me but the paradox remains: if I haven't bought these it's because I'm busy with games I want more! This does make it tempting to jump a few to the front of the line though.

Also, a shout for 13 sentinels. I'm not too crazy about visual novels in general but I loved it.

What's the difference between sniper ghost warrior 2 contacts and sniper ghost warrior 2?

Cheeky wanker.

So it's literally the same campaign just with added assassination contracts?

 

[Heisenberg007]

Pretty good month for me!

[xrnzaaas]

Premium continues to be a letdown, but that's a cool selection of Extra titles. Especially with Nier Replicant not having any massive sales since tha launch.

God forbid I had to do my own digging. So it turns out this is the most recent iteration in the series. No connection to the old one from the ps3. Here's the release order so looks like I'll be playing this.

[delfrickintree]

You told us and we listened. You like Starfield? What's bigger than a field? An ocean. Here's 3 of them.

Whats bigger than a Sea of Stars? Star Ocean. 3 oceans

No kidding.. I really dont understand whats holding them back. The syphon filter games were fun while it lasted, and legend of dragoon was a huge surprise. Thats the only good ones so far

 

[Long Far Gone]

I bought 13 Sentinels not expecting much, I was very pleasantly surprised. The story is convoluted and pretty much batshit insane, deploying every sci-fi trope since the 1980’s, but the way they unravel it, I didn’t have much trouble keeping pace. Ended up getting the Platinum trophy and was immensely satisfied for doing so. Can’t remember the last game I can say that about.

Also, while the battles look like something from the early 2000’s, the absolute hordes of enemies coming at you is something to behold, many a time I was sat there thinking ‘how the fuck am I going to win this?!’

 

[mckmas8808]

That´s on you for having 2 consoles. most people only have one

EXACTLY!

 

[Muffdraul]

Damn it Sony, literally right after I paid full retail for Nier Replicant in April 2021!

 

[cash_longfellow]

So, a brand new entry of Star Ocean is getting announced at TGS? Sounds good!

 

[cash_longfellow]

Please play 13 Sentinels. No excuse now.

I’ve almost pulled the trigger on this one so many times recently. Pretty excited to play through it!

 

[Aenima]

I strongly recomend playing all Vanillaware games, they are all amazing.
-13 Sentinels
- Odin Sphere
- Dragons Crown

Really good month for me even if some of the big name games are some years old already, gonna be playing:

- Nier Replicant (was on my wishlist)
- Star Ocean The Divine Force
- Call of the Sea
- Odin Sphere (only played the original back in the PS2)

 

[DeepSpace5D]

One of the better months for me personally. I was already really happy with 13 Sentinels and Nier Replicant, but Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir has been on my radar forever as well.

You’d think at least a couple of those Star Ocean’s are decent as well? I’ve heard the series has peaks and valleys.

13 Sentinels is pretty much the only game that a good amount of ppl praised alot, that surpassed my expectations. The game is very story heavy, so if you are not ready for alot of story with one of the most gorgeous 2d art out there, then ... just give it a try.

 

[sachos]

Pretty good month huh, JRPG fans will love it. Im interested in a bunch of games but my backlog is already huge lol

 

[nial]

It's funny to see Japan getting the Second Evolution PS4 remaster that Square Enix never released in the West for some reason.

SO3 is a PS2 classic, but it was already on the store since a few years ago, so yeah...

 

[Chechack]

Damn

This is an awesome month

Lost Judgement was added recently,now Nier,Odin Sphere,13th Sentinel.

Wouldnt have to buy any new games itll end of this year i guess

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

Not a particular great month for the first month of the price increase.

The price increase has nothing to do with the choice of games. You will have shitty months as usual.

 

[crackajack]

Not a particular great month for the first month of the price increase.

Anyone expecting any change due to the price increase will get perpetually disappointed like all the I'll stop subscribing Premium whiners that should not have subscribed in the first place, assuming they are not actually trolls.
Maybe I lack the vision, but what could Sony possibly add to all three tiers that would genuiunely change it? People who are not satisfied with 700+ games won't be with 1000 either. People who don't care about streaming won't be if it magically is better after inserting more coins in the machine. Day One won't be coming anytime soon, not for Essential anyway. I can imagine they could do some PC client and extend the whole service on there, but since they said nothing now, the price increase is just a "we want your more of your money and won't do anything now"-move.

Great month but I continue to run into the "problem" of either owning most of the title I'm interested in (duh) or having played them on Gamepass (Unpacking, Call of Sea, West of Dead).

Sub services above the basic tier, especially with two, are hardly the right tool for collectors that already build their gaming library with all games they are interested in. They might stumble over some hidden gem, and maybe if they are younger, they can try some older stuff now and then, but the service has also discounts for sales often, so I guess anyone should benefit enough from the yearly/monthly charge if they are actually playing more than 2 or 3 games a year.

For me those new additions are not super high on my interest list, but still a couple I might want to give a shot if I find the time.

• Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands
• Watch Dogs
