Does save data from the retail version of Soul Sacrifice carry over to the digital version? Really have no idea how that stuff works :/

Perfect. The SS demo was cool, the story and production values are great, but the game itself had me on the fence (small areas, combat that seemed fun but also like it may get repetitive - though maybe it gets deeper). Like Hotline Miami, it's something that I may have passed on if it wasn't up free, but I will probably love it and be interested in a sequel once it's in my hands.
So far, PS+ is paying off in spades. Anybody who has a Vita but doesn't get this service is nuts.
I still miss those PS+ PSP games. Thank god that I didn't bought Stranger's Wrath

i'm banking on LBP and PSALBR - as for the third it's up in the air.....i think either a racing or i dont know...unit 13?
I already own PSALBR and Unit 13 (ironically, got them both for free on the Free to a Home thread), but I would be down with LBP

Haven't played either of them. This is awesome.
With our luck dqx(the mmorpg) is more probable
No matter if shahid got millions of absolute masterpieces(lol), if he won't give me type 0 hd i will be disappointed.

Same.
Edit: To be fair I'm not worried because I'm a "playstation user". I have a PS3/Vita and will get a PS4. So every month I have something I don't have.
Does that mean we'll be getting other PS+ games in November to replace the yearly ones too? I'm surprised Soul Sacrifice isn't one of them.
The sad thing for me is that they're giving away Vita games that I bought and haven't even launched yet, heh.
My current rule is that I only buy games digitally if I'm going to play them immediately.

Wow. Dick move, SCEA. Just based on the number of times it's been on sale lately...
At least they're sort of doing it right in terms of getting current releases out and played by people to drum up new interest in the next game. However, based on my understanding of Soul Sacrifice Delta, I'm not thinking the freebie will help.
While, again, Vita PS+ fails for me, I can say I'm happy this month because I can start building my PS4 collection though. And I always wanted to try Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen, so this month isn't a total wash for PS+.
For once, the US PS+ update is better than EU for me. HAHAHAHA.
Same here.
Persona. It'd be worth giving Atlus the money for it's exposure.
DC has an extremely small chance. But a chance nonetheless.
Hot Shots for sure. It's one if the last first party games they have left for IGC.
LBP for absolutely sure. I can't even imagine it not.
MvC has about as much a chance as DC but it's there. It should be about time too.
Unit 13 for sure too. But not completely confident on that one.
Most Likely Combination : Hot Shots, LBP, Unit 13.
Boldest Combination : Persona, LBP, MvC.

Seems kind of premature for SS with the sequel still being so many months off.
Disappointing that the return to retail is a game I own, but I'm glad the second offering is an actual Vita game, not a PSP fighter! No more PSP I hope
It's not a sequel.
It's an expansion pack being passed off as a "sequel" of sorts.

i thought soul sac 2 was greenlit as well as delta?
corrosivefrost

I think so, but all the info we have about anything at all right now is about Delta. So adding SS to PS+ is sort of a primer to try to get people to buy Delta, I'd wager. Especially since your "save transfers".
However, I still don't believe Delta to be different enough that people will want to shell out $40 for a new game after playing enough of the original gotten through PS+.

agreed.
do you/anyone know if the content in Delta will be more/less/equal to the amount of new content added to RO:Ace??

Yeah, given its production values and amount of gameplay, it would seem like a natural fit for the IGC.
So Persona 4 Golden on PS+ then?
Cheers
. Luckily it's cheap, so I won't feel too bad if I end up not liking it.P4G on IGC and Vita TV hitting west... Imagine that.
I don't think P4G will be on Plus yet, at least not until after Christmas.
FF3 is terrible. FF4 Complete is pretty good.
FFIII is a good FF title for what it is. But you can play that game everywhere (and for cheaper too than what they are pricing on the PSN store) since along with IV SE would prolly port it to a toaster if they could.
I'd suggest FFVIII,Chrono, Wild Arms, BoFIV, and maybe Legend of mana
Yeah, I was kidding. The yearly PS+ games will most likely be LBP and PSASBR.
That's unfortunate, I really liked the look of the remake. FF4 Complete is 20 on EU PSN which is a bit too much for what I'm willing to pay for a PSP game.
Good suggestions but unfortunately I'm EU bound :/

Yeah, I was kidding. The yearly PS+ games will most likely be LBP and PSASBR.
There should be 3.
Uncharted, Gravity Rush, WipEout 2048 should all be swapped out.
FF4 is one of my favorite FF games.
You can get the PSP complete version for $10 or so during the SE sale that happens every year it seems.
BoF3 then?
Which of those games, other than Chrono Cross and BoF4 aren't available in EU?
Yeah, I was kidding. The yearly PS+ games will most likely be LBP and PSASBR.
Yeah, I think LBP and PSASBR are a safe bet along with HSG.
Exactly !!
It's either a wasted opportunity, or they have something better lined up. Persona 5 news is incoming apparently. And even though there are sales out there left to be made with new Vita owners, it would be a huge boon to IGC. I'm sure they would have loved to keep Gravity Rush on there too, maybe they'll open up another Evergreen Slot... I would think that ideally, the best Evergreen lineup would be
Persona, Gravity Rush, Soul Sacrifice. They could always go insane and announce Tearaway for PS+ =P
Out of the 5-6 most likely new Evergreen Titles... Persona is on that list. For me anyway.
Legend of Mana isn't available and I can't bring myself to play the German version of FFVIII. BoF3 is available though as well as Wild Arms and WildArms XF.
Anyways, thanks. Guess I'll check out BoF3.
I wouldn't have thought they would give away Soul Sacrifice so soon, it just released this spring, so I am really surprised it isn't even yearly. This game deserves better but maybe they thought a yearly SS would hamper the SS: Delta (if it's not released as DLC and only an expansion) sales in spring 2014?
If that's the case, releasing it now is probably better to promote the new game than releasing it close to SS: Delta.
P4: G would be the only big thing that could hype up the IGC. LBP and PSABR are a given I think but there are three slots and a 3rd party game is possible as it already hapened on the PS3. You are probably right though, it won't be Persona.
NFS: MW or AC: L could be considered big for the mainstream. It certainly would have a bigger pull than Soul Sacrifice.
For what it's worth, I'll probably already own the games anyway.
Used games market I assume. They're afraid it'll get abused too much.
It's less of an issue in Japan because they have no equivalent to GameStop that aggressively encourages people to resell their games.
Because attach rate in the west was really low while there it was pretty high, i suppose. Still they should have released it for their dedicated fans.

Just came in to ask if those PS+ games were going to be replaced by something other than Soul Sacrifice and Stranger's Wrath.
So November is a pretty huge month for Vita PS+ subscribers...Like 5 new games haha, pretty sweet

Been collecting PS+ Vita games since spring. My IGC looking good. Can't wait to get that hardware soon...
It was November 15th (or 19th can't remember exactly) last year, so I imagine it will be the same time this year. Who knows they may announce it alongside the launch of PS4, but probably not.
Congrats! But weren't you already famous?
Isn't there an Abbey named after you or something?
