@ZenTripleFour
How many times are you going to post the list? We get it Europe gets better games.
PvZ on Vita! Platinum here we come!!
PS+ for Europe in March is crazy amazing (ME3, DOA5, JD2, MGS HD, Puddle). Hopefully we get something similar for NA, but based on last few months, I’m not going to expect too much.
I would be happy if you brought back the free PS1 game back, or better a free PS2 game sometimes.
Could you put my suggestion in for me, Morgan? =)
That’s it? Meh :P
@103
Yeah Morgan already addressed it. I just had to make a final note that Ninja Gaiden Sigma was a January game. So we got even LESS games than Europe.
Hey morgan, I waited for the whole last week for the dust starter pack to show as free, but it still says 9.99.
That really bugged me.
PS: I would also give 1 of my legs for Mass Effect 3 for ps+ users.
Hum…just Vita stuff….quite a disappointing update….but I already have PvsZ on PS3 and its really fun…anyway might end up picking some games…there are some great discounts there.And keep up with the weekly updates….no need for a monthly update.
MORAN when ps+ becomes all about ps4 will people that are just ps3 user get to keep there content if we let our plus memberships lapse
nice discounts on a few games….and looks like i’ll be play PvZ for 3rd time. hah
If i get PS Battle Royale in the discounts for Vita, i get the ps3 version too?
@20
It’s probably your puny level 18 trophy level, that’s not worth bragging about. Step it up, nobody likes a beggar.
As far as the update goes, pretty terrible. Yay, now I have a Vita version of a free PSN game we got months ago. This is becoming sad, everyone that works at Sony that’s responsible for the NA PS+ content should be ashamed of themselves. It’s been week after week of disappointment for me. I’m really starting to regret renewing my + subscription in January. It’s been soooo long since I’ve been excited about ANYTHING given away on this service.
My PS+ subscription lapsed recently, and I was waiting for this week’s update to decide whether or not I subscribe again. I’m done. Every week there is a glaring difference in quality between NA and EU’s service, I’m not giving any more money to fund EU’s amazing game collection while American gamers get scraps.
Morgan – THANK YOU for acknowledging this, such a statement goes a long way with me personally, even if it won’t make a difference to others who complain.

Thanks for the list! This is definitely a larger conversation, but the feedback from you guys on this note has not gone unnoticed nor unreported. While I stand by the value that Plus gives NA gamers, and still feel it’s the best gaming subscription service around, I can see why some might feel that this is an issue.
I hade doing this everymonth but, Sony, you give me no choice.
Months ago, way before plus for vita was announced there were some users complaining that they did not want “plus for vita because instead of getting free PS3 games, they’ll get free games for a device I don’t intend to buy”
That was the complainment and you Morgan assured that, PS plus including or not Vita games it would NOT AFFECT PLUS ON PS3. Meaning you wont get LESS games just because Vita was included.
And AGAIN you give a Vita game and not a PS3. Please stop doing what you said you wouldn’t do.
(and yet, I’m sure I’ll write the same thing here not so long from now)
No one has received less games on PS3 because PS Vita games are included in Plus now. If PS Vita was not in the IGC, there simply would have been no game in the Instant Game Collection this week, plain and simple.
