+1 for Zombi. All the rest looks like the typical trash we have come to expect from Sony
God knows why they didnt inc uncharted 1/2/3 on PS4 over the past few months to boost Uncharted 4 sales.
To boost Uncharted 1/2/3 sales duh.
Surely Uncharted 1/2/3 has made its money
The uncharted triology on PS4 can be purchase for very cheap these days so they arent making much
Yep so not 'duh' at all.
Because they are bundling Uncharted 1/2/3 with new PS4 console?
Likely because they are selling those copies of the Uncharted Collection on PS4 instead and have no reason to give it away.
Hey! I Am Alive looks pretty cool. But yeah, the rest are fairly uninspiring.
Xbox live is way better these days
But the trade off isn't worth it hence the crap sales figures.
Let's keep the fanboy rubbish to YouTube comments, shall we?
Thumbs up for Zombi. Also I believe Dead Star is from some ex Metroid Prime devs, so I'm keen to give that a go.
It's not fanboy rubbish, the bone is a failure in comparison so it has to push in some way.
@StewBalls: This is a trap. If I point out the obvious reasons which push PS4 sales then I'm a fanboy, if I bag the bone for its even more outdated than PS4 hardware I'm a fanboy. So either way it's a trap and you're asking dick questions.
@Where's_That_Cake: So you've bullshitted yourself into a corner, and we're the ones asking dick questions…right, gotcha! ;)
@StewBalls: I believe my initial statement is valid as I have both consoles that I play regularly.
The fact of the matter is that the free games with live are a lot better then plus. It may be due to sales being terrible for the xbox. I think sony need to pick it up a little though
@Where's_That_Cake: ps4 sales are pushed because the console came out $100 cheaper than the xbone and the xbone had a terrible salesman in Don Mattrick at release. PS4 is a good console, but I prefer xbone for dedicated Australian servers, elite controllers, external hdd support, and real account security. That's without mentioning a lot.
@pacsman: Yup…Each & every GwG post is littered with PS+ subscribers saying exactly the same thing.
Not fanboyism or console wars, simply a statement of fact. I don't own a PS4, but I'd love to see owners get some AAA titles from PS+, hopefully the current comparison to XBL gets the ball rolling on that.
@niaboc: So the Xbone must be selling as well as the PS4 now then since that was years ago and Dom is long gone and the Xbone is as cheap if not cheaper than PS4?
PS4 outsells xbox every month of it's life until now with the exception of a few (like when xbox had price drop). Also price is the same now so launch marketing and price not the reason I think.
It is fact that the hardware in PS4 is better and is proven with some multiplatform games being 1080p in ps4 and 720p on xbox.
I think this is what wheresthecake is referring to when he said trade off.
@suicine94: Can we agree that the launch is vital? xbox screwed up their launch and are still paying the price today. The main determining factor when selecting a console is can I play on the same platform as my friends. And with more ps4's out there due to a much better launch, well..
hardware. ps4 has slightly better GPU and RAM, xbox has a slightly better CPU. xbox has external harddrive support. battery for controller support. elite controllers. upcoming keyboard and mouse support. Both consoles suck compared to PC, and both companies are looking to put out better consoles ASAP.
PS4 can outsell on console that's fine, due to windows 10 tie in, an xbox exclusive game will still reach a far bigger audience of potential buyers than an exclusive ps4 game will. shrug
upcoming keyboard and mouse support
upcoming VR support is better technological wise then a keyboard and mouse
due to windows 10 tie in, an xbox exclusive game will still reach a far bigger audience of potential buyers than an exclusive ps4 game will.
How? more ps4 sold then xbox so ps4 exclusive more reach then xbox… what does windows 10 have to do with this? if it's available on PC it's not exclusive.
the argument which potato is better is hilarious.
@suicine94: a playstation exclusive goes to the 40mill ps4 owners. an xbox exclusive goes to the 25mill xbox owners as well as any pc gamer running windows 10. according to steam this is 35% of steam users. Hence, an xbox exclusive will go to a far bigger audience of potential buyers.
The point from Where's_That_Cake might not even be an opinion but an observation made based on sales figures;
If xbox live is 'way better' but xbone sales are still rubbish then there must be a problem with the platform.
If PS+ is crap but PS4 sales are high then the subscription is crap but the platform is good.It's not a matter of fanboy/troll just an observation of facts (ie sales figures). The conclusion may be incorrect but based on the information available, what else can be concluded?

That you guys have missed the entire point of the conversation…
Exactly my point. It's the same approach that Sony made when they were behind in sales to the 360 when it released earlier than the PS3. Push the free benefits and try and catch people's eye. Sony are now the ones in the driving seat letting their hardware do the talking and largely ignoring the users added subscription benefits.
@StewBalls: You will also make note I was not taking part in your conversation because I believe it has derailed entirely from what Where's_That_Cake was actually saying.
@StewBalls: You're having you're own conversation about fanboys, no idea on your butthurt tood but idgaf about your agenda mate.
@Where's_That_Cake: You sound way more bottom damaged than anyone else here mate…you couldn't even muster up a positive vote for this deal on your own platform, that's just sad. ;)
@CyberGenesys: No, _Cake derailed what pacsman initially said…which was essentially that XBL has been giving away better game titles, which is an inarguable fact.
Taking it to console sales, platform superiority & product launches is just a quantum leap of dumb-people logic…
@StewBalls: I just realised why you're here man. April Fool, yeah I get it now. You can leave lol.
BTW, I think PS Plus is shit at the moment. No arguments there. I can admit when a product I buy is shit, enjoy that bone.

I'm genuinely embarrassed for you…

I think you will find Cake was actually agreeing with Pacsman, with the added observation that, despite XBL being better quality when compared to PS+ it is still not enough to drive up sales of the Xbox One which is still lagging far behind in that regard.
you couldn't even muster up a positive vote for this deal on your own platform, that's just sad.
Your own platform? Fanboi confirmed.
This is the best "crap-burger vs turd-sammich" argument, ever. Why not just go PC and never have to pay anything for online multiplayer gaming?
You PS guys really need a troll in here whinging about how it's not really free, blah blah blah… ;)
I'm a PS guy but yeah seriously,……..stop whinging here 😋🙃😁
It's a trap! ;)
Except it's accurate: this isn't any type of deal, it belongs in the forum.
Mods historically disagree…
True, but I cannot understand how informing people of the games they've paid for can be a deal.
Zombi! FINALLY one game I want it is free in PS+
Dead Star looks good to./gif dawn of the dead
The games aren't free, you need to pay a subscription fee to get them.
Dam… just payed $10 for Zombie.
they have a habit of releasing the games free which are on super cheap sale around that proce point so I htink ill hold off in future.
Looking forward to the xbox games though, shall be good.
Meh, both Microsoft and Sony will release updated hardware in the next year. Hit the reset button on the "console wars".
Is dead star good?
Was hoping this was a April Fools joke and PS4 got better games this month…
/gif well played
The only thing of interest is Zombi and unfortunately I've already played that. It's a great experience if a tad repetitive.
ffs is there anyway to disable all the gifs??
I can't see any on my Android tablet, lucky me!
Now that I have both Zombi and Zombi U, which one should I be playing?
When do these actually become available?
I don't have a playstation so don't know how it usually works but I thought if you are signed in to ps plus account online the game should show free
Based on the article from the EU site (which is for Australia too) its the 5th of April. But then due to timezone it might be off by a day?
https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2016/03/30/playstation-plus-…
yeah still few days to renew..
Zombi's a good enough reason for me to upvote this. Bought it early last month when it was going for under $10 and don't regret it. It was much better than expected.
Sure beats last months lineup.
