I really can't figure out who's sarcastic and who's not in this thread.
Knack is actually a much better game than what we had last month... And the Apotheon-level of crap before that.

Never Alone is ten times better than Knack, though! I know I'd never play it again, even if it ends up being free.
Tower of Guns doesn't interest me, but the guy who made it is nice.

Did you play Never Alone? OIliOlli 2? Transistor? Oddworld? I don't even have the time to play all the good PS+ games...

If Fusion is on Plus, I hope they put the season pass on sale in the US. Been waiting for that for some time now.

I don't want Knack for the game but so that the precedent for retail AAA games on PS+ from the PS4 is set.
Think long term here people.

I liked Knack. It's got problems, but there's actual challenge there. I appreciate that it at least made me stop and think about how to approach a room full of enemies where many other games with combat (AC, Batman), I just plow right on through without needing to use strategy.
I enjoyed the doc for Never Alone very much. I thought that the platforming certainly left something to be desired. The art design was lovely, though. For me, this game is great because it probably gets people to watch the doc that otherwise wouldn't do it, but for me, I'd rather have just had the full documentary show up on PBS.
I did not particularly enjoy Tower of Guns or Aaru's Awakening. It's okay, not every month will have something that really grabs me.
For this month, I'm hoping for a good platformer that I haven't played before. Rayman Legends and DKC: TF got me way into pure 2D platforming again for the first time in years, so I'm always ready for another platformer to sink my time into. All the better if it's a PS4/Vita cross-play title.

Yes, those are good games. I bought Transistor & Oddworld before they were given actually. Going through Never Alone now but I'm not really hooked so far.

I haven't played Knack, but Never Alone was just awful. Quite possibly the most boring game I've played this gen. But to the game's credit I could at least stomach it for about an hour. I can't even give that honor to the dreadful Tower of Guns, which I wouldn't want taking up HDD space, even if it were free (not Plus free), and that awakening game was pure crap. The moment you want me to move a 2D character with the left stick, but use the right stick to change direction between left and right, I'm out. Delete.
I never got around to charging the Vita up for the Monster game. First month I honestly just didn't care to be bothered downloading a free game since I got the service.

I thought Never alone was interesting. I liked all the documentary type stuff in it. I would have never bought it though. I got all the trophies in less than 2 hours

Now I'm reminded that everyone else hated Aaru's Awakening. I'm sad now. I don't get it. I'm clearly the only sane one around here.
Am I out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong.

Injustice was retail and probably about as AAA too.

I consider it the highlight of this month. It's not great or anything, but totally worth playing.

Injustice is a good game.

please stop hoping for Knack, Knack is garbage 
I completed it a few days ago. Loved the art, music and the gameplay took a while to get used to but its a fun but very hard platformer. Fun teleport/sprint machanic
So you liked the videos, not the videogame playing part.
Never Alone is a bad game.

Truth.
The only reason I own a copy is because my wife bought it for our kids. They got bored with it almost immediately and went right back to Minecraft.
Knack a Z grade turd.
Still need to finish the Game. Level 3 in the last World. But i really like the Game.

Which will probably lead to it coming out eventually, then the same people demanding it reacting in a manner similar to this:
"omg Knack is such garbage, dunno why I'm still subscribed to this shitty service, not renewing etc etc"
PS+ discussion went through such a negative spiral, it's kinda depressing.

I'll keep hoping for Knack until your real life counterpart gives Ambrose a main event push. >_>please stop hoping for Knack, Knack is garbage
$15 New Indie Game vs. $15 Bargain Bin AAA Game is what keeps this thread alive, man.
Embrace the chaos.

Gooood. Let the hate flow through you.
tower of guns is objectively the worst Plus game ever right?
Couldn't stand more than 10 minutes.

It's funny how the differences between AAA and indie games are becoming less and less obvious. Nowadays you can make a short AAA game that lacks content (ekhem, The Order) and an indie game that doesn't bore you even if you've spent 15 or 20 hours playing it (like Rogue Legacy).
As for Knack, I didn't play it myself, but after what I've read and seen about it I won't bother downloading it when (or rather if) it appears in PS+.

True but lets focus on what's important here.
THAT MOTHERFUCKER BADMOUTHED OLLI OLLI!
For PS4? It's up their with Contrast.
Overall? Nah, The Cave takes the cake for the worst Plus game ever offered.

Shovel Knight is definitely not a free May game right?
I want to buy it now!

Of course not.
They would never do that, and Yatch Club Games has already denied it.

Not actually that important
Not free and not gonna be discounted again past the initial PS+ discount until at least after this summer, confirmed by the devs on Twitter.

Worse than Thomas Was Alone? And there's Luftrausers, Stealth Inc, and Lone Survivor.
Those were some of the biggest turds imo.
It's awful. I paid £10 for it based upon Eurogamer's review. Felt robbed.

My son made me finish Never Alone. He watched the whole playthrough of that and enjoy it. Story and presentation keeps him interested on somę crazy level He's 4 btw...but yeah, game is too simple and frustrating to keep you interested - documentaries did that for me.

Whoa! Whoa! Luftrausers?! For SHAME!
You better buy it quickly. The discount ends when the Playstation Store updates, which could be within the next few hours or sooner.
