I'm starting to get a little worried that now PS+ is necessary for MP Sony isn't going to put as much effort into releasing higher quality games for PS+

I think it's more a case of the PS4 is selling like crazy so they don't think they need to try as hard.

I'm not sure that's true.  I mean you can buy and PS4 and not get PS Plus at all.  So they can sell millions of PS4 and get none of those buyers to subscribe to PS Plus unless there is something there for them.  What makes those high sales people buy PS+ in addition to the console is free games and multiplayer.  They could stop giving away free games entirely and the Destiny, Battlefield, Call of Duty, EA Sports, online multiplayer crowd would still buy PS+ because they need it for multiplayer.  I don't play online multiplayer at all so I couldn't care less about that and I'm subscribed ONLY for the free games.  I'm sure I'm in the minority though so they could probably lose my business and that of the few others like me and not see a huge hit on their bottom line.  They really get you though in that if you unsubscribe you can't play the old PS+ games you got.

I do not think 1 bad month is cause for alarm TBH. Generally speaking there is usually at least one decent-good game released a month, especially if you are a multi Playstation console owner (meaning PS3, Vita, PS4). Even if it is just 1 game a month, I believe + is still more than worth the price of admission. Especially now that they have finally upgraded the storage capacity, and the usual 10% discount on new releases, I think + is fine.

If we get 3 months in a row of garbage, that would be cause for concern.
Right now, I would just say this was a bad month.

Every single month people have been saying that the IGC has been crap. It hasn't, but you know how the internet is.

I find it interesting too, that most of the other message boards and forums I read think this is a good lineup for November, while the GH doesn't. Personally I'm looking forward to Magicka 2, but again that is the niche indie title nobody usually cares about. However, ME2 and BG&E are two beloved IPs and acclaimed titles; The issue is how old they are for most people. It's a terrible month for Vita though, which seems to be the consensus everywhere I've read.

I disagree this is the only "bad" month. I think October and September were pretty meh.

I still think Plus is worth it, I just think it is "less" worth it. I don't go "wow, we're getting that? Sweet!" any more. I go "hmm. I might play that. . . eventually". Ya know?

However, I am a bit of a spoilt gamer because I have lots of stuff over many platforms, so that could also explain it.

EU Black Friday sale

Hello, P4G for £10 (Y)

 

For £10 P4G offers a tremendous amount of gameplay. Great title. Works on PSTV as well.

I picked up the Driveclub season pass for £5, some of the Evil Within DLC and Tropico 5. Had some PSN credit otherwise I'd have waited for Tropico 5 retail to hit £10. Love the UK/EU retail market, puts the digital console store pricing to shame. Managed to snag Tearaway Unfolded and The Order for 8 euros each off of Amazon.de this week, and also Tales of Zesteria for £19.95 from TGC. 

Going to have some Christmas backlog! Completed FO4, but I'm back to Bloodborne with the DLC as it is fantastic. Lots of new weapons, and the DLC so far is easily on par with the quality of the Dark Souls 1 DLC.

    • All these CEOs got the biggest boners thinking about firing employees for AI. Turned out it was just a wet dream.
    • And the fact that the majority of people from Poland are white European Christians while the people you are complaining about in post after post are not is just a coincidence... Every sentence in your post I am replying to is racist nonsense. None of it is actually based on any facts whatsoever. All immigrants are seeking a better life too. It's literally the only reason they would risk everything and leave their homes, families, and homeland. They are working and contributing to the economy too, as you even admit. They get the same benefits your partner did AND that YOU are eligible for as well. That is one of the key things of the EU and a mark of a civilization. That is the definition of a society where everyone is given a chance, treated equally and fairly, and is judged by the content of their character, not their different skin color or which version of ignorant superstitious nonsense their parents lied about as children. Racists around the world said the same things about the Irish and Jews and Poles (like your partner) and...every other immigrant movement over the centuries. What's your family's heritage, by the way? Were your ancestors lied about with racist fearmongering crapola by self-entitled locals the same way as you are now? If someone like that said the same things about all people from Poland, like your partner, would they be right? Or would you want them to judge your partner based on who they actually were, not where they just happened to come from?
    • Again, this is an irrelevant attempt to attack the messenger. The truth does not require any justification.
    • Removed the blue and underline as you did not post a link. This would also  be considered spamming.
