PS+ Jan Content is now live.

edit, if anyone knows how to download Guardians of middle earth (I have the unlock but not the full game) then please let me know, the PS Store can be a real PITA

Search the PSN store for Guardians of middle earth and download the trial. I had a similar problem with another game a while ago and that worked. The trial should be the full game with content locked out, the unlock code unlocks the full game I think.

yeah, seen that happen before. doesn't work in this case unfortunately.

edit, went into DL history and this time while DL'ing the trial, it picked up the full installer

Finished downloading Mk today and gave it a quick trial, think im getting too old for beat em ups, couldnt even pull off johnny cages 3 button combo, Sqaure, square, sqaure, with a thumb press haad to switch to index finger for the speed, wish they would put in an option for a slight delay allowed.

google doesnt seem to be helping me so i thought i would ask here

i have a 30 day free PS+ subscription when i purchased hitman, if i was to use it when a game was reduced for PS+ and puchased it would i be able to play it after the free PS+ subscription finished?

i can understand not being able too if it was free at the time but if i was to still pay albeit at a discounted rate it seems a bit harsh.

Yes, anything you shell out money for (using the PS+ discount) is yours to keep when membership expires. It doesn't matter if the PS+ sub was free or not.

I just got playstation plus, gutted I missed Batman AC. And Bulletstorm. And Resident Evil 5...

But anyway.

How can I find out what upcoming games there are on ps plus? I've been to the official website but it just shows the current games, is there anywhere I can get insider info on this?

Thanks!

JDR82 · 7 Jan 2013 at 21:23

The next month's game are usually announced near the end of the month, so at the moment we don't know what the February games will be.

Kosmiche · 7 Jan 2013 at 21:25

Thought there might be some secret info somewhere on the net. Oh well

Anyone know if Tony Hawks HD is worth it with the PS+ discount? Hoping it does justice to my memories, loved THPS2

ps3ud0 :cool:

It's faithful but there's not much content and a lot of my favourite levels are completely missing.

ps3ud0 · 8 Jan 2013 at 01:34

Thats a no then?

It plays exactly like the old PS1/PS2 games, it feels really nice to play it just totally depends on your favourite levels, the ones included are:

THPS

Mall
Downhill Jam
Warehouse

THPS2

Hangar
Marseilles
School 2
Venice Beach

There's some DLC which adds three more as well, Airport, LA and Canada which are all from THPS3, it adds the revert trick as well which was introduced in THPS3 and you can only use it in levels from THPS3, not sure if you can just free skate on any level and enable reverts, but it's disabled for the career mode on levels pre-3. Like I said, it looks great and the gameplay is as faithful as you could realistically expect, it doesn't really have the magic and the soundtrack is pretty lacking too if I'm honest.

Yeah I had a look around Google when mine said that to see if there was some kind of announcement, apparently it was intended to be from yesterday afternoon to today at some point around the afternoon too iirc.

point decay · 18 Jan 2013 at 15:32

ah, so that's why its down.
