Really glad Furi was one of this month's freebies. Was going to buy it anyway, just for the soundtrack. You're off the hook for this indie game Sony. I really don't have any interest in Saints Row though.

I can't decide if that looks good or the most awful thing ever."Physics puzzle" games are universally shit and the last thing Tetris needed was physics, but the trailer does look good.
I hope this isn't the PS4 title of August, it looks like a phone game, even worse of the usual line-up.
Yeah, it was serious. I mean, with "phone game" I intend something I would spend 5-10 minutes from time to time, not something I'd play for one hour or so.

So literally in no way is "phone game" even slightly an appropriate definition which makes any logical sense?
Well, I couldn't find a proper definition for it. Kill-time game? How do you call those titles you play just to kill some minutes in and there?
I used "phone game" defition because often those kind of titles suit mobile gaming, that's it. I was not referring to "phone titles" like garbage or what, just a different kind of gameplay.
Puzzle game by the looks of it. Trust me, just because you'd only spend a quick blast on it, I'd kill for a multiplayer falling blocks puzzle game.

It's logical enough, because I knew exactly what he meant...

Tricky Tower has a clever concept, at least! Would like to have it on Vita.

Xbox gets Spelunky this month so the PS+ line-up is automatically shit in comparison.
May as well come back next month.

In the same month as of Binding of Isaac too. It was a pretty amazing month if it wasn't that the games were already pretty old.

It will most likely be that Tricky Towers puzzle game and something else that nobody really asked for. We'll see.
Well unless it's The Order, I'm sure it's better than WWE.
Didn't stop people from complaining about the bad line-up of worthless games.

PS+ got it 2 years ago. I hate what PS+ has become but that's a LOL post

We had back-to-back months on God of War for PS(P)Vita. Think they do that again with Prince of Persia and give us Rival Swords in August?

To be fair, I was one of the people complaining. Not my kind of games at all.
It has been much better lately with one AAA game each month. They finally seem to be listening.
What are the chances Killzone Shadow Fall will finally be a free Plus title in August?
When the service hits actual rock bottom?
I'd take it over most indie games any day, honestly. I know many indie games are great, but most of the choices given by Sony since I got a PS4 in December have been horrible.
I'd be more happy with a full-fledged indie rather than a half assed AAA or a yearly sports game. And we had to sacrifice PS3 and Vita games in order to receive games like Saints Row DLC or NBA...yeah no thanks, I'd much rather go back to last year's offerings, which were great and covered all the systems

Yeah, PS+'s "problem," if it has one, has never been "too many indie games."
It's too many shit indie games.
Careful now
Anyway, I agree with you. The last game I played from PS+ was in August, Stealth Inc 2. After that I couldn't be bothered to play the games they made available via the service.

Taiwan gets Tricky Towers (via @Wario64, obvs) so that looks pretty nailed on for US as well.

Taiwan is apparently getting Tricky Towers, so get ready.
Tetris Jenga. It looks fine for an hour, I guess?
I think this will be one of those months in which I don't download a single game from Plus.

You already know what the other five games are going to be? Please share it with us!
Edit: beaten
Yep. Announced too is this review of a south african site.

Dunno, but I bet Yakuza 5 is one of them, and I already played it.

"Tricky Towers is free so I guess its hard to complain too much, and if you do download it you are guaranteed at least 2 hours of moderate fun. A bit more fun perhaps if you have friends over and turn it into a drinking game (*we take no responsibility for this). The truth is that Tricky Towers is not an overly ambitious project, but its hard to hate it because it doesnt aim to be a AAA game in any shape and form and I suppose at least you arent being asked to pay crazy amounts for it. Still, with the basic idea it could have been a lot better still."
Positively glowing.
