Never got to play more than a demo of this game so i’ll definiely check this out. Anyone know how much hdd space this takes up?
Great Update! One more game to add to my enormous backlog because of PS+!
But I have a question though.
Are we ever going to see PSOne classics, dynamic themes and minis offered thru plus ever again?
I miss those! Coming from a long time subscriber from before the IGC.
Great PS+ Update. I always wanted to try Darksiders. It’s sad that THQ is auctioning its IP.
wow I’m impressed about this update… I’ve noticed things have been getting better lately ,but this is the best update in months. Thank you sooo much Morgan I knew there was hope lol
THANK YOU AGAIN MORGAN,CAN’T WAIT XD XD XD
@StECnet r u a plus member right now? I dont see a plus sign against ur id.
woot! finally… thank god.. now THAT i will take. now hopefully we’ll also get motorstorm apocalypse, dead space 2, RDR, vanquish and MAYBE arkham asylum (yes i said asylum not city lol).. now THIS is the kinda retails games i expect to see once a month.. lets hope February delivers too (ps i said once a month because usually is PSN titles throughout the month with ONE retail title a month)
Thank you Morgan!
PSS I notice a huge lack of negative comments here.. as opposed to lets say.. the last 3 months. You say you guys look at feedback so these comments should be taken as a hint as what should be done every month heh
Yes! Great update. If this game is as good as I’ve heard you just sold a copy of Darksiders 2 for THQ as well.
Too late to help THQ, but welcome nonetheless! PS+ continues to deliver.
Now, how about a discount on Vita memory cards for PS+ members?
Thanks so much we voted and you guys listen and gave us an action game
Great news, great game. If I some some more great news in the next posts, I’ll think about rejoining PS+ :D
Great game, too bad I already own it on both PS3 and PC. :( For those getting to play it for the first time, though, you’re in for a great game. Real men play it on the Apocalyptic difficulty. ;)
Nothing for the vita unfortunately…and where is metal gear solid portable ops and peace walker, final fantasy 7 crisis core and kingdom hearts bbs these are some of the best PSP games and its not on the ps store
@StECnet – yes correct. I was mad about it too last yr when I found it out after my month trial… If you goto the info on the games for plus wait for it to update. scroll down to the bottom, you will see it says:start (day you downloaded) or something like that and expire: (when your subscription ends)
Thats why I was like four24twenty are you being sarcastic you don’t keep your games.
Then again this has been on the comments in arguments for a couple months.
Some of you have unrealistic expectations and are whiny brats.
Nice! Looking forward to this one!
You guys are just making this year better & better, keep it up!
Rip THQ

For people like me that has ps vita and ps3 this update is very good and the kind of thing that i want to see every week if possible (old retail game that is also very good because i am aware that is not possible to give us aaa blockbuster current tittles). However, i would be pissed if i only had a psvita and the plus subscription as there has been nothing good for the system since release of the program (uncharted, gravity, wipeout, mutant blobs and jet set radio were awesome; retro city rampage is a good game but a lot of people cannot really stand 8 bit games anymore so it is kinda lackluster and chronovolt was absolutely terrible); you need to pay more attention to the vita library (i know that there is hardly room for maneuver in that regrad as vita is a very young platform but you could really work out a deal with warner for Mortal Kombat vita because they seem so desesperate for money and now it is only 20 bucks) or like i have told you before, try to squeeze in 1-2 ps one classic per month (add another game to the IGC or count it like a vita game). I cannot imagine people complaining if they get parappa the rapper, crash team racing or games of the sort for their brand new vita.
Thanks for the feedback, and we’re looking at how PS Plus content is doing on Vita very closely.
