PS Plus: Hotline Miami Free for Members

Put on a mask (did I mention they’re all animal heads and that each one has a different benefit?) and ‘take care’ of anyone your answering machine tells you to. Sure, it may sound a little crazy, but that’s part of Hotline Miami’s appeal. This top-down action game requires careful planning to execute the perfect take-downs. Starting tomorrow, PlayStation Plus members will be able to download Hotline Miami for free on both PlayStation Vita and PlayStation 3.

There are also loads of spooky titles on sale as part of the Sale of the Dead, including recent sensation The Last of Us and other zombie favorites like Dead Island, Dead Nation, Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare and Telltale’s The Walking Dead episodes.

All of these PS Plus benefits will be available after the PlayStation Store updates tomorrow, October 22nd.

  • Lots of these games are cheaper elsewhere or we’ve been given them before or purchased them on sale as plus members. I mean Riptide can be found online for $9.

    I’m and hardcore gamer and I want discounts on new games not old stuff what’s in plus for someone like me. I mean I brought Hotline Miami as soon as it came out so I depend on sales to make me happy and these sales don’t.

  • I have to agree with #39. Although this genre isn’t exactly my type, the sales themselves are great. I only wish there had been a similar standard of games between PSN EU and NA for the previous months. This week, on the other hand, I have no complaints.

  • Guys, i have bought The Last Of Us last week for 60 bucks… Now is 35… Can you guys do something for my situation? Refund? Please! You can check my transactions

  • No love for vita.

  • Unbelievable with all of the complaining about what PS Plus members get & what they already have bought. First up stop buying everything & let your membership work for you & not against you. And if you don’t like the service then oh we’ll c- ya you won’t be missed no one cares. PS4 day 1 shipping I’m out

  • @ Jisatsu_Kiddo

    No kidding. The funniest part is that he said “for once”… he must have not been paying attention to the last 100+ times Sony has had a huge sale.

    @ carlpeon

    Look at the hypocrite telling others not to be a jerk… jerk.

    ——————————————————————————

    Too many cowards polluting the gamer community these days. I wish I could warp back to the 80s and 90s… eras when gamers still had respect… and brains.

    Incredible update as usual, Sony. You don’t have to say it, but I’m sure you’re sick of all these ungrateful peons too. ;)

  • Sounds like some of these people rely on Vita for PS+. Here’s a word of advice: Buy a PS3 or save up for a PS4 you poor morons.

    @ElektroDragon Why did you even bother telling the world that? You’re the FAIL here. You should have kept your mouth shut.

    @DJ_Tomato No, your just a poor moron who can’t afford a PS3. Why would you buy a Vita before a PS3? Are you stupid? Do yourself a favor and get a job. Not subscribing to PS+ isn’t going to make you stop complaining. You’re just another troll who can’t learn to afford another system to get his money’s worth on PS+. What a big baby.

  • huge fan of sony and the products especially my ps3, what is really making me wonder though is why does psplus EU get a higher level of IGCrelease then we do here in NA??

  • Well, my friend just bought The Last of Us few hours ago (60$), poor him. Is there any ways you guys can make this discount to him, just few hours…

  • I would get The Last of Us if it was 30$ with Plus instead of 36$. Not that it isn’t worth 36, but 27gb is asking a lot for my PS3, and Gamestop’s Black Friday sale of the game is 40$. 4$ less ain’t quite worth the trouble.

    Everyone should totally get The Walking Dead season pass however, even if you are not Plus. I paid that much for ONE episode a year ago, and it was still totally worth it.

  • Sleeping Dogs by itself was already on sale last month. Is there any way to get just the Nightmare in North Point pack by itself on sale if we want?

  • Finally will be getting The Last Of Us tomorrow. Thank you PS Plus!!

  • @ Firethorn43

    The difference will be a little more than $4 after GameStop tacks on the tax… heh…

    Probably between a $7-8 difference, depending on your state, unless you live in Oregon or some other state without sales tax.

    Although, I agree that the concern about disk space is more important in this case, which is why I’m personally willing to spend a few extra bucks to get Puppeteer on Blu-Ray during Black Friday, rather than take advantage of the PSN sale next week, as good as the sale is. It sure is tempting…

  • Awesome. Love the zombie sales. Some titles in there I have been wanting to add to my collection. And now at these prices. It is a no brainer.I am so glad I upgraded to a 1TB drive last week.

  • Seriously Sony, why do we get the chappy games that no one want and ps plus on the European side get all the good games?! Even it up yo

  • Finally Hotline Miami, I will be downloading this as soon as possible, I’ve waiting to try it :D

    Nice sales, I’d definitly grab TWD 400 days if I could

  • @156: PrimeroFanboy: Don’t worry. I’ll never try to take your title. I know you are the #1 jerk here. That is why you had to say that about me. You still have something in your arse. It looks like a big D.

  • Wow Sony Blog team, maybe I should send these screen shots into the corporate office of Sony or better yet call to see who I complain to about being discriminated against a lot by your blog team blocking my main ps account s l i c k _ t from making comments in here for defending myself against people like Primerolncognito and another one called Gamerzlimited that goes against the NO JERK TOS daily on here for months and they still get to post comments harassing others for constructive criticism but I get banned from commenting? You are Jerks!

  • Will they round up my spending to $100 for the spend every $50 get $10 back promo if I were if to spend a total of $99.63?

  • The new TOS by the blog team is that its ok to be a JERK as long as you agree with everything the blog team does even ripping us off most the time on plus sales then the games going free a week to a month later. You voice constructive criticism on the topic and you get banned. But if you troll hate towards the complainers breaking that DONT BE A JERK TOS you get ice cream and praised at by The blog team and never banned.

  • You’ll soon learn that the blog team will not hear out legit complaining and will just block you to shut you up. If you blindly jump on here praising the feet they stand on for every scam they get ya in week after week they love ya but if you complain and it being legit they block ya from commenting. Im a fact to that! But the jerks that break the TOS at the bottom right get to stay cause they take up for the scamming!

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX That’s because Sony loves me for being their loyal customer (Not sure about Primero though). I’m planning to get a Vita next month. Even without PS+, I still have plenty of games to keep me going thanks to sales Sony offers. I don’t care what people think about PS+ and I’m not going to sell my Vita because they can’t offer games I want (Can’t you just buy them?). I would rather keep annoying the 3 people who tried to scam Sony to take advantage of them, thinking Americans are idiots using a petition, and comparing the qualities with another company than waste my time with trash like you.

  • Yo gamer boy, you loyal huh? Try having 5 ps3’s in the house one for every bedroom cause I have 4 kids, try having 2 psp’s, 1 vita and 3 ps2’s and 2 ps ones. Try having a psn account dated back to May 2007 to now my S L I C K_ t psn account my plus account that has been active since plus started. Try spending well over 3,000 dollars on psn off 2 main accounts all digital content for ps3 and thats not counting the disc games either. Me getting banned from commenting is ridiculous Im a loyal consumer thank you very much.

  • The European collection is way better -_-
    I’m not complaining just out of the blue… but games like Metal Gear Rising, Assassin’s Creed and more are way better than POKER NIGHT 2 or ZEN PINBALL

  • Looks like the blog team needs to unblock my plus account S L I C K_T that I’ve gotten 2’323 trophies 11 platinums, 93 gold, 347 silver and 1,872 bronze so far and should have way more platinums but I can’t game all day I have 4 kids to raise to. The point is I have well over 150 psn games or more bought digital and have spent over 3 grand in digiatl psn content since May 2007 to now off 2 main psn accounts. I have 5 ps3’s cause when we had 5 activations in the past I took advantage of that with buying digital. It changed to 2 now. I’m very loyal thank you!

  • The guy says he’s loyal to sony but is planning on getting a vita. Dude I’ve had vita since day one so you don’t seem too loyal to me based off not owning a vita yet. 2 of my 11 platinums is already off vita games as well. I’m averaging 2 platinums a year even though my gaming has completely slowed down the last 2 years since I do have a wife and 4 kids to attend to and can’t game 24/7 being a platinum junky lol. I say Im loyal to Sony so far. So why I am blocked from commenting off S L I C K_ T is beyond me. I deserve my right to vent if need be.

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX To prove I am a loyal consumer, I have been involved with PlayStation Underground back in the late 90s. This is enough proof to show my loyalty and this account I’m using is the same one used to this day. Most of my family live in a different country so I don’t have as many systems like you do. About your account being banned, guess you’ll have to chalk it up to bad luck because I have no idea how. You must have swear on your comments and censored it just like that guy who compared qualities with another company. He swore and got his comments deleted. I don’t see him comment anymore so I’m guessing he got banned as well. That’s what he gets for thinking Nintendo is better than Sony when it comes to region locking and 3rd party support. Guess you aren’t trash after all.

  • No I banned cause I was venting my opinion about getting ripped off on plus sales so many times buying games on plus sale to just go free a week to a month later. Best example was the week before e3 last year. Infamous 2 was on plus sale for 23 bucks I bought it and then that next week e3 hit and right after e3 they put that game out for free to plus members. I was raged. I called them up on the phone and they said all sales final cant refund me. You better bet I was smoking mad. I jump on here to vent!

  • Once I jump on here to vent I get attacked by the fan boys and I defend myself and Morgan Haro takes their side and says ridiculous stuff about me like a reply to one of them saying maybe I’ll redeem myself and that fueled my rage big time. Morgan acting like Im the one in the wrong lol. Im just venting over getting scammed off plus sales and then getting attacked by jerks defending the scams and I defend myself against their attacks and I get banned but the jerks attacking get to continue attacking others.

  • Im pretty sure I’ll be banned again as always. I’ll just have to go use another one of my over 40 made psn accounts lol. So sick of having to make bogus psn accounts cause I keep getting banned on here lol. If they ban my isp I’ll just jump on another somewhere else over wifi on my iPad and be right back in here as always. They can’t silence me no matter how much they want to. All Im doing is voicing my right to complain legibly on here.

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX Hey, consoles are expensive. Don’t expect me to own every single Sony console out in the market in order to be loyal. That sounds more of a fanboy would do, which I am not. I’m not planning to buy a PS4 at launch because how much to maintain it. At least I’ll finally save up money to get myself a Vita this year. But it must be tough to be a parent with a lot of kids, I’ll believe you that you are loyal consumer.

    Yeah, I’ll admit that Sony’s customer service kinda sucks still. The lady on the phone never fixed my issue with the LittleBigPlanet cross-buy DLC. At least you get to keep Infamous 2 forever, but that’s a big whooping $23 lost and can go to other things. I can understand your reasoning to be smoking mad. That’s just like me when I bought Tekken 6 on PSP for $19.99 on a Namco sale and it ended up being free for PS+ a month later. But I’m not too mad about it because I plan to buy that game and it would have been $39.99 later after my PS+ subscription expires (It’s $14.99 now). I would try emailing them. Maybe it’s just me, but they acted more nicer to me compared to the phone.

  • This is off topic but are you guys EVER going to put SKYRIM on psn network? Its been on Xbox Live for over a year as a digital option and is only a little over 3 gigs in size on 360. So what is the hold up on psn? I want to get rid of my last disc game which is Skyrim cause I prefer digital over disc. Oh and please get Nascar 2011 and Nascar inside Line on the usa psn store. They are available digital in the UK and even hong kong of all places and yet it being a american motor sport its not available digital here yet? What?

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX You know what? Just do what you want. I’m not going to stop you anymore. You have your reasons and I’ll respect that. And I just realized I haven’t commented on my opinion about this week’s PS+ update. Looks great and I look forward to buying “The Walking Dead” this week. That is all.

  • Well man its not just the infamous game its a lot more on top of that along with it that Ive been suckered into with plus over the years. Their was a plus sale for red dead that came with the add on undead and they screwed up and instead of it being the undead small MB add on it was the undead separate over 10 gig stand along undead. They screwed that up and I called them over it but they said it would take almost 2 weeks to refund me and I had zero dollars in my wallet after buying that. I told them forget it cause Id lose out on the sale if it got refunded. So I jumped on my other main psn account that luckly had plus still active by a month and I grabbed the add on of undead on sale for like 7 bucks on that plus week sale.

  • So now I have a undead stand alone full over 10 gig add on they screwed up on and refunding the whole thing wasn’t going to fix nothing but screw me out the plus sale. So having to go to another account to buy it its correct small download of just over 200 mb of the undead that goes with red dead just pissed me off. Then I get screwed recently on sleeping dogs, bought it on plus sale for it 2 weeks later goes free on plus, bought walking dead on vita 2 weeks ago for 20 bucks its going on plus sale for under 10 today. Many more games Ive been scammed on to by this plus sale crap. So its not just infamous 2.

  • Bought the first borderlands full price with all add ons and it went on sale on plus and once went free for plus if I recall right. Been a long while since then, several other games to recently bought that went free on plus to but I’d have to dig deep in my paperwork that I write down the plus games that go free on and the games I bought on plus sales and my download list. I have to write this stuff down as record cause I have near 1,400 items in my download list dated back to May 2007 to now. Been with plus day one. Been ripped off a ton on plus sales.

  • Also that just rages me when people say… At least you own them… I DONT CARE, It doesn’t mean anything to me owning it If Im always going to be a plus member… It just means I wasted extra money I never had to waste to begin with. My plus membership just ends up costing extra when these plus sale then goes on plus free crap happens. I learned my lesson though. After sleeping dogs screwed me, I’m never buying off plus sales again.

  • I’m really disappointed… I mean… Europe got —————>Metal Gear Rising<———— and we got an indie game? these last months I haven't downloaded any single title… I'm thinking in not re-new my subscription, I could use that money to get a game that I would play like Battlefiled 4, Saint Seiya Brave Soldiers or Dj Max Technika.

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX Wow, just wow. That is a lot of reasons to get mad at Sony and I totally understand what it means to be in your shoes. Judging by your situations, you don’t seem to buy physical copies of any games. I guess I don’t get scammed that much because I don’t buy too many digital download games due to the fact it takes a long time for them to download in your system and that I tend to avoid the mainstream titles as I know I can get them cheaper as a physical copy. I only go for the small fry games that are budget friendly and are under $10. A word of advice is to never buy a game when it’s not on sale unless it’s released on the first day or you know it’s too niche to even get a sale. Guess all that money wasted could have went to get other games. I know how that feels and it’s probably the best option to do.

    @Kanon_of_Gemini That’s EU November PS+ game. We don’t know what US gets until the end of this month. Then again knowing the history, it’s most likely it will be another one next month.

  • @ CrazyRage,

    holy cow, do you really need to make like 10 consecutive posts?

    Pretty sure i know why you were blocked based off your last ten comments, you do nothing but vent the same complaints over and over, I could see why they could make a case of you disrupting the comments section, you aren’t giving your new name a good image either, I’d be surprised if your new account stays unblocked to the end of the year.

    Funny, how only a few select people get blocked here in the comments, hint, it has nothing to do with fan-boys, I’d wager its people that are annoying and they eventually have enough. No weird conspiracy going on, sorry to say.

  • “Also that just rages me when people say… At least you own them… I DONT CARE, It doesn’t mean anything to me owning it If Im always going to be a plus member…”

    But you DO own them. If you were worried about getting “SCAMMED” you should have not bought anything since you know its a roll of the dice as to which game gets put into the rotation.

    Do you have the intellect of a 12 year old? You admit you are an adult, yet you still hang to the thought that you were scammed? Grow up. Literally. You were not scammed. You obviously felt the game was worth the cost and paid for it. I you have buyers remorse, that is ON YOU. NOBODY scammed you.

    I swear, high schools should brush up on their critical thinking in English, maybe then we wouldn’t have so many simpletons thinking they got scammed when no such thing occurred.

    I can only HOPE people like you quit buying PS+, so that they no longer have such an entitled opinion that Sony is scamming them whenever they buy games that later go on to be free (oh and so you also miss out on the great sales lol).

    But alas, maybe you will redeem yourself, how ever small that chance may be.

  • People are just crazy in here !!!! stupid !

  • Sorry for that.

    Thank you for your attention to direct these words to my intellect devoid of economic intelligence to understand this explanation.
    Mr. Stanley you need to get back playing game (if you’ve played). Gracias.

  • Can we get some of the old MLB the Show games up in the sale one day?

  • When will we get to “pre order” Contrast like we did with warframe?

  • I will buy a card of 50 to download the revelations and the two islands dead!

  • @XxCRAZYxRAGExX
    Did you have to fill this blog with your whining and “loyalty”?
    If you really are mad about your account ban then get your arse to the customer support and spend the time to try to contact them instead of whining on the blog.

  • Great!!!!

    I am getting Hotline Miami (both versions), Alien Breed Trilogy (PS3), TWD Complete First Season (Vita) and Plants vz Zombies (PS Vita).

    Thanks for all these great deals.
    Cheers.

  • We really need a patch update/fix for Poker Night 2. It has frozen my PS3 countless times and always drops while saving game..which happens at least a few times per minute. Other than that it is a very fun game!
