    I seriously have to thank Mr. Morgan Haro i think this is the most replies the Psn Update has had. its much better than any other person and i have to say thanks!

    In response to my post you replied to. i personally see no interest in the current Dual Packs the Psn is offering. I would assume more will be coming out and hopefully its with games i would like to buy.

    Again Mr Morgan Haro thanks for all your response!

    I’m disappointed that i won’t be able to get hard corps from the summer sale. Loaded up 10 dollars in psn credit just to get the game at the plus discounted price. But of all the things to happen, Sony had to expire my 30 days free ps plus sub at the very day the summer sales went live. Where’s my additional 30 free days of ps plus that i heard some people are getting, i just need to get my game.

      You might have been hearing about the Plus Birthday Bonus Months program, but that promotion expired 7/11. (where you subscribe to Plus and get extra month(s) free. But all PSN folks who received their 30 days of Plus as part of Welcome Back, as you can imagine, it expires 30 days from when you activated it. There was no additional 30 days of Plus that people were getting; but the good news is that these sales are PSN wide! So if you see a title you really want in the sale, it may be worth it to a) Hop onto Plus to take advantage of this, and all future deals, or b) put a bit more on your wallet to grab the game while it’s on sale. Hope this helps!

    Mmm… I’ll be grabbing all my nice PS+ goodies, but that Megaman PSP game has my number as well. If what I’ve read is correct, that the Vita should be able to play the digital PSP titles, this is gonna be awesome. I think I’ll also grab the Daxter and Secret Agent Clank dual pack. Give myself a few more options for on-the-go gaming.

    Ok so the demo for Catherine sucks, diffinitely not what I expected. What about another KINGDOM HEARTS game for the PS3. I feel the title has been cheated by not seeing what it can do on an awesome system like the PS3. Limbo is awesome. Can’t wait for it next week. How about BREATH OF FIRE 3 for a PSone classic?

  • midknight24
    July 13, 2011 at 5:24 am PDT

    Ever notice that the sales are on games I would probably never buy in the first place. Lets get some real games on here. BREATH OF FIRE 3, KINGDOM HEARTS for PS3

  • SnDin9
    July 13, 2011 at 5:32 am PDT

    Very cool! I’ve always wanted to see what Catherine is about. Dead Nation is fun, picked that up during the Welcome Back program. On a side note, anyone else just do a search/find for the word “free” and that’s all they read in these updates? :D

  • midknight24

    @Pain of Sarrow. If your a gamer,your a gamer.Im no nerd i have plenty of games and i just paid for a 3 months sub of ps plus and im from the hood,im a thug but i like to play games to pass time by,And it helps me stay out of trouble because you know living in the hood trouble can find you even if your trying to stay away from it.

  • magicfan345
    July 13, 2011 at 5:46 am PDT

    First, thanks for the update and the current sales – keep up the good work! I like the new PS+ area, although the white-on-yellow is hard to read…. and since I’m new to all the games that are on the summer sale list, it was really neat to find the Demos right next to the games, so I can try them out this week and decide, I’ll probably have to limit to 2 or 3 games for now….
    Here’s a suggestion for next month – many PS+ members got Magic The Gathering: Duels of The Planeswalkers (the old one, not the new 2012) for free last month, and I think a bundle discount on the expansion packs would be nice….. I don’t see any way to pay $15 for 3 small add-ons that unlock a few more cards…. however, 6 or 7 bucks for all 3 might be feasible…. or better yet, make them a free icing for PS+ members….. just some thoughts to consider
    Is there a schedule of what the free games will be in the next 3 or 4 months ? Where can we find this out, so I don’t accidentally buy a free game ahead of time :)
    Again, keep up the great work! PS+ is awesome!!

    I bought the Back to the Future: The Game – Full Series ( PlayStation Plus price $9.79). Notice that Episode 5 is missing. Is there a reason why Episode 5 is not on my download list? I check my PSN cart and its not in there either.

    Did anyone else notice that the lbp2 post on the 4th said the inFamous 2 pack comes out this week, while Killzone 3’s minipack comes out on the 20th? This post says the Killzone minipack comes out this week, and it doesn’t anything about the inFamous 2 minipack? Just curious as to which information is correct.

      Any games you purchase with a Plus discount are yours to keep, regardless if your membership lapses. It’s only the free playable content that would become inaccessible should your membership lapse. Free avatars and themes are yours to keep though since they are not playable content. Hope this helps!

  • memphisheat

    Yes, it will. If you buy a discounted game via ps plus, once the subscription ends, its still yours to keep.

    I really enjoyed the Shooter 2 multiplayer demo. I can’t believe I didn’t hear of this game before but no matter. At the $5 sale price, it’s a steal. I hope to see people playing the multiplayer in it in the coming months; I’m definitely planning on playing that a lot. Also, already 100%’d Golden Axe and Streets of Rage 2. Keep the Genesis classics coming :)

I Just would like to have them asap, They would just give my profile 1000+ Coolness XP & Would dish out 9999 Dmg to enemies. LOL.
    If anyone knows a confirmed date for Cloud or Squall id be a happy camper.

    I have to say this. Why is it everyone is going nuts over the sonic and streets of rage? Is it beacause it is free? LOL seriously go out and buy for 20.00 sonics ultimate genesis collection and you get all those games plus others and it dont take up any room on ur HDD’s. The game has 30 plus games for 20.00. Anyways Ill pass on the PS plus membership as it dosent offer me anything that I dont already own. (this is regarding the comments by posters as well as the rep). Im glad some people find a use for it but I dont as the content or discounts and or the free stuff is offered on stuff I already own. At this time there is no benefit for me to purchase it.
