Sweet. Wonder what they are. I didn't really like Mercenary Kings...

Is Secret Ponchos coming out in May now? I'm going to guess that every month until it turns out to be true.

That was my plan as well. But now, I'll simply let you do all the work and silently wait for the game to be released.

I think it was pushed back because they switched the game to the PhyreEngine, which resulted in them being able to run the game at 1080p/60fps. I remember there being a report that Binding of Isaac was nearly complete, so it could be that.

No rumours this time? (For EU Plus games that is)

PlayStation Plus May content announcement coming this week (EU):

I wish they would give us Monster Hunter Freedom, like the US got.
Or maybe any PSP game, as they all work on Vita now...

 

[The12thGripper]

Anyone know why Pixeljunk isn't free for PS+ members yet?

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Anyone know why Pixeljunk isn't free for PS+ members yet?

Because the store hasn't updated yet?

 

[The12thGripper]

Because the store hasn't updated yet?

I didn't see a date anywhere, I guess they roll out weekly? Sorry, kinda new to PS+.

[Jubern]

Oh this is for Asia. I was wondering for a sec why some games were a repeat of US PS+ while others where a repeat of the EU service.

 

[ckleow]

Going by previous trend, the PS4 game for May will be

On an ordinary day, hard hat tester; Ray has a bizarre accident and wakes up with a giant pink spaghetti arm sticking out of his brain, giving him extraordinary mind-reading powers.

Ray can suddenly change the world with stickers, transforming his paper universe by tearing it, folding it and using the crazy stickers he finds (along with his awesome new powers) to solve mind-boggling puzzles! Sadly, Ray doesn't have much time to get to grips with his new-fangled psychic abilities. Instead, he’s on the run from ‘The Man’ for a crime he didn’t commit.

Can you help Ray out of this sticky situation? Get ready to tear it, rip it and Stick it to the Man!

Yep. I missed out putting Asia. Sorry for the confusion.
Have updated the post.

Sounds like Psychonauts meets LittleBigPlanet. Sounds like fun.

 

[nny]

Stick it to the Man is great, Psychonauts meets The Cave...but I already beaten it twice. :/

 

[Labadal]

Hope we get Puppeteer in Eorope.

 

[terrier]

Stick it to the Man

Source: http://asia.playstation.com/hk/en/psn/psPlus#comingOffers

Release dates for Stick It to the Man:
Next Wednesday, April 30 in EU region.
First Tuesday of May, May 6, in NA region.

That matches the day of the next PS+ update in EU region, shown here in the countdown timers.
NA region's PS+ PS4 game always comes out in the first Tuesday of the month.

Unless one of the regions throws a curveball and puts up something else for PS4 (Daylight or Child of Light in EU region, MLB 14 The Show in NA region), it's more proof the PS+ PS4 game will be Stick It to the Man.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

I remember there being a report that Binding of Isaac was nearly complete, so it could be that.

My heart would pound and my Uni work would go unfinished. But I don't think it's that close to release yet. He did say Q2 though, so who knows.

EDIT: Nope

"what the fuck is wrong with you people… why would i not announce a release date for a game coming out in a month? why wouldnt SONY announce it… you will know the games release date when its getting closer to its release".

Pro Evo 2014? Wow, sales must be really bad for Konami.

I'm excited to finally play Puppeteer.

PS3 selection is great! Not so sure about the other two.

 

[carlos]

sigh, would've liked lumines instead of surge deluxe :/ EU got it months ago

weakest month ever for me, partially because I already got puppeteer at that crazy discount sale.

 

[KojiKnight]

Puppeteer looks like the type of game my wife will absolutely love playing!

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Vita selection is a bummer. Was hoping for what Europe got.

 

[Tizoc]

Tch I own most of those games being offered on US PSN.

 

[junpei]

What a weak month for plus.

 

[MaximumSpider]

I guess I should stop buying Vita games because they're just going up on PS+ anyway.

 

[Madrugador]

Already have Puppeteer and Skullgirls. Already finished Limbo on PC.

Not the best month for me.

Already played Limbo and Puppeteer (which I was rather disappointed in). Negative interest in everything else. Absolutely atrocious lineup compared to what Europe is getting. I think this will be the first month since I got PS+ back in October where I won't even bother to download anything.

 

[AndyD]

Not bad at all. PS+ really continues to deliver in spades.

 

[MUnited83]

At least you guys still get 3 PS3 games each month.

 

[Slayven]

Been wanting a sports game, will enjoy PES.

 

[Weltall Zero]

You're meant to switch the game off and play something else so you don't get bored to death.

I laughed. This was my experience.

You just keep on playing until you either die in the game or die in real life.

I agree with what others have said, it's a very boring game, not my cup of tea at all. But I'm not a fan of Minecraft either.

My problem with Don't Starve is day 2 was doing the same thing as day 1, and day 3 was doing the same thing as day 2, etc, etc, etc. I was just looking for carrots and berries to eat whilst collecting grass and chopping down trees. I wasn't unlocking any new items. I did finally manage to build a Science Machine around day 10 but then I died.

Don't Starve is one of the most addicting roguelike games out there. Sure, at first it might not seem like you have a lot to do, but once you start learning the ins and outs of the game, it gives you an amazing amount of freedom about what to do.
The game is also not only about surviving but exploring. There's a lot of stuff in the world to find and explore, and managing exploration time and tasks integral to your survival (like maintaining sanity) is crucial.
Of course you're free to dislike it, but there is a LOT more beneath its surface than it seems, the same way that there's a lot more to Spelunky than the tutorial might indicate.

Am I a bad person for seeing this coming and dodging the Puppeteer bomba?

Maybe I'll actually put in more than 20 hours on skull girls now that I'm triple dipping...

 

[skybald]

Can't wait to play the US PS3/4 offerings.

LOL I knew I should've waited a bit before getting Puppeteer. Oh well still a fun game haha

 

[Kssio_Aug]

I hope Vita gets interesting games on May at PS Plus US. I would love to have Muramasa, like EU is getting.

 

[atomsk]

No regrets on getting Puppeteer on Day One, one of my favorite games of 2013.

 

[Celegus]

Luckily I still haven't finished Metro or started Tomb Raider, this month is pretty bad for me. I got Puppeteer on sale a couple months ago and was super excited for it, but hot diggity that game is baaaaaad.

 

[Magnus]

God damn, Plus is amazing.

 

[Ocaso]

LOL I knew I should've waited a bit before getting Puppeteer. Oh well still a fun game haha

Got it on sale to support original ideas. Didn't really like it much, I'm sorry to say. Don't own anything else from this month so I'm cool.

Edit: Stick it to the man is giving me a great Psychonauts vibe! I'm surprised! And Limbo is for the Vita! Nice month all around, actually.

 

[BadWolf]

Great, looking forward to Puppeteer and Limbo.

 

[DeviantBoi]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

No Muramasa Rebirth for NA

 

[carlos]

EU is really kicking the US + butt when it comes to vita games, I would kill for lumines, muramasa, dynasty warriors, and little kings story being released.

instead we get a port of a 5 year old indie game, and another meh indie game.


Maybe the bad vita US hardware sales are making Sony cheap out on plus exclusives for the region.
