It does. Mine didn’t work early on, but it eventually got a patch. You had to repurchase it from the PS VITA store though. I believe that’s what had fixed it. The struggle was real.
Hey Ryan, this doesn’t exactly apply to this Drop, but last week’s update, which is still on until tomorrow’s update had Grim Fandango listed as one of the PlayStation Plus Discount games on the webstore/PS3 Store, but the price was the same at $14.99. I was wondering whether that was in error. Either, it’s not supposed to be listed there, or that the game is supposed to have a sale.
Seeing that there was no official Pricing/Sales update, I have no way to confirm this. I left a post on the store update last week, but again, it didn’t include any of the Plus sales. Anyways you can check, cause that’s a game I would certainly pick up if on sale. I was so excited, but then confused/saddened.
Otherwise, Rocket League! SO EXCITED for (Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered BattleCars 2) it!
That game “Toro” is just horrible. Torturing animals is not cool at all. I know it is just a game, but shame on you Sony. Nobody would promote that type of cruelty in any way. Poor animals. Stupid tradtions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scfxJk_VQ_U
Hello! any chance Sony could combine PS Now and PS Plus so I don’t have to rebuy or rent games I already own on PS PLUS? That would be super awesome and wouldn’t take up my HDD space AND MAKE PS NOW EVEN MORE AWESOME ON PS4?… just sayin. =)
First Tuesday of the month for NA, next day for other regions.
Over the last 3 weeks PS3 offerings have gone from slim to none.
