Companies spend millions on marketing. This service advertises their games and grows their markets. You can bet Sony are pulling out stats like x% of PS+ users who tried Darksiders went on to buy Darksiders 2.
Of course we don't know for sure, but it is pretty likely putting these games up often costs little to nothing.
Can't check now as I'm not near the PS3 but that has to be a mistake surely? Or is it saying "from 0.99" as in most are more expensive?
Oh SCEE
Yeah, Vanaf means from.
"Vanaf" means "from". I'm not really sure what's wrong with the picture.
Ah right, thanks. Hope there's some good deals.
Strange, didn't see the problem when I was looking through the store.
Oh SCEE
Herst should be herfst.

So quick question here, just signed up for PS+ today.
I added all of this month's free games to my cart and did the checkout process. The games have the little red shopping bag icon next to them in the store now. I didn't download them all since I'm close to this month's data cap. Do I need to do a full download of each game for them to "count", as in I'll get to keep them when they're removed from the PS+ freebies area? Or was going through checkout enough?

You're all set as long as you "purchase" them they are associated with your account. You will see them on your download load if you check, and they will remain on the list as long as you are subscribed to PS+.
People will keep saying to download the games, but just doing the purchase if enough. You never need to actually download them.

NA Store just updated. Everything is available via search.

Well I did not see that coming, I got the walking dead episodes one and two for free from ps plus, let my sub run out and bought episodes 3 and 4, and I can't play them and use my save apparently since 1 and 2 were plus freebies.
A problem with the way Walking Dead works.
Episode one is the classed as the game, and every subsequent episode is DLC for that game. As you got Episode 1 for free, and can no longer access it, you can no longer access the other episode as they are DLC for Episode 1
You have to either buy Episode 1 or renew your PS+
Yeah, I noticed that too last month when my sub lapsed. Walking Dead views the episodes as DLC and the "main game" is apparently part of PS+.

I would expect them to give the rest of The Walking Dead for free. May have to wait a month or so but I'm pretty sure it's going to be a freebie.

Maybe early next year. They will eventually.

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't, they have you fixed now and want you to pay for the rest.
Exactly what ended up happening, except it was more like half an hour. And I still hate fighting games. I was surprised at how fuzzy the characters were, I guess I got spoiled on Disgaea 4's beautiful graphics.

I'm waiting for Journey or Uncharted 3 to show up free next personally
Get ready to learn about patience.

Oh I'm patient. I'm just thinking that SCEA will put out a "big" game soon to make up for this month, especially in comparison to SCEE's offerings lately. That or the big bang the service needs going into the holiday rush. Something to possibly "celebrate" the new PS Storefront update.
A PSN game that most people bought day one like Journey would fit nicely when sales drop off, and they're giving away Uncharted 3 in the new bundle anyways...
That's a clue it won't be on Plus. Because the bundles also include a month of Plus, so they dont want to duplicate content for new owners. They want to give them stuff that would entice then to buy Plus.
hey, i remember reading about it somewher here on GAF. my problem:
i DL'ed RE5: Gold Edition (had the 1 hour trial-version before) and started the game. Now i just got the message from the XMB that the game version will expire in half a hour.
- i've checked the store to see if i've DL'ed the right version
- i've checked for that yellow bubble thingy beside the game in the XMB (it's not there)
- i've checked if i still have that trial version installed (nope!)
so GAF, what's the deal? what do i need to do?

Is this the thing where you keep playing and then at the end of an hour it says "surprise, you had the full version all along!"?
Since they're giving away Uncharted for new PS3 owners along with a PS Plus trial, there's little chance they'll offer the same game on Plus. Uncharted 1 or 2 would be more likely. As for Journey, the retail release was fairly recent, and it's one of their top sellers. If anything they may offer a discount on Plus to boost sales, but I wouldn't expect it to join the Instant Game Collection until next year, if even then.
yeah i just quit the game to post my question here and it fixed itself. so. somehow GAF helped me to fix this bug!

Sony really loves some Cacpom, too bad it's just a one way.

It's like what the store would look like if cvxfreak took Grace Chen's job.Look what US PS Blog shows:
