PlayStation Plus: Stick it to the Man and PES 2014 Free for Members

Tomorrow, PlayStation Plus members get two very different types of games – Stick it to the Man on PS4, an adventure game with platforming elements mixed in, and PES 2014 PS3, the latest entry in Konami’s venerable soccer series.

Stick it to the Man boasts a bright, animation-inspired aesthetic and witty dialogue. You’ll navigate puzzles as Ray, a normal guy with a completely average pink arm sticking out of his head. The extra appendage allows him to see other people’s thoughts and grab stickers from their brains.

On the other hand (get it?), Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 on PS3 features Konami’s revamped FOX Engine, placing more of an emphasis on ball movement via a new physics system and improved player AI. “GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLL…kick.” I had a soccer coach who used to do that all the time. It was annoying.

You can download Stick it to the Man and Pro Evolution Soccer 2014 after PlayStation Store updates tomorrow, May 6th.

Free for PS Plus members

Stick it to the Man
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?

  • A soccer game and horrible activision sales? Look, Europe got Muramasa, American’s don’t even really like soccer all the much, I think you got regions crossed. Give us something good like Europe, sports games are the worst cop-out you can put on here.

  • OLE OLE OLE! Can’t wait for it >.<

  • Very excited about PES. Sometimes it’s nice to have a game you can play while the kids are still awake. I appreciate the variety that has been offered lately.

  • at 9:00 am there is no new update on playstation store

  • Come on! Stick it to the man. Really. I mean. Really? Better be something better next month. And yes i completed it before *****ing about it.

  • Nice, can’t wait for PES2014, where we actually play football by foot.
    Keep up the variety, PS Plus.

  • after playing fifa for years, PES is a nice change of pace. can anybody here teach me how to use option files and which option files are the best? there’s so many option files out there i’m getting confused.

  • 10:40 AM EST on 5/6 and still no update. annoying. ps+ is a digital service. i dont think it too much to expect a 12:01 update on the day content is stated to be available. that is, unless, the instant collection is not a priority. my guess is the instant connection is the reason ps3 users pay for ps+ so if it isnt a priority thats bad form. i would go as far as saying the “may slate of free games” should be available on 5/1 at 12:01 AM but i dont make the decisions over there. i get that you want people checking the store and hitting up your flash sales (which im happy to say youve FINALLY gotten right!) but as a user who spends a lot of money on the ps store i expect better, more timely, service delivery. i dont even want to get started on ps3 psn purchases not transferring to ps4. playstation now is interesting in theory but i wont hold my breath until its promise is fulfilled. getting my ps4 next week so hopefully much if this is moot then as i will be in love again. sincerely, loyal but disappointed ps+ member in the final days of his ps3s lifetime… hopeful for the future with his ps4.

  • hear, hear greyfx3

  • @157 same question different moron every month. everyone knows that the store doesnt get updated til 2pm pst 5 pm est. if u don understand that look at all the previous articles on store updates for every week in the last several years. never changed and wont be changing anytime soon

  • To all the Noobs on here:

    The store usually updates between 3-5 PM Eastern time. Sometimes a little earlier(rarely), and sometimes later. There is no set time, but usually around 3-5 PM.

  • @ tao707 and klassymike… noted. with that, call me noob all you want, the delays and spacing dont excuse the fact that ps3 ps+ members are paying for a premium service. i dont see the usefulness of the release schedule as established unless they are fishing for store hits. if thats the case its underhanded to treat your premium members like that.

  • @ KiLLjoY-42481

    Ok got your point. Sorry didn´t know you use 2 Ps4s and need online play for both.
    I also wanted to say make on your wifes Ps4 the Master Account (with PS+) and log in on the other Console not creating a master Account directly with the PS+ Account. But for you it doesn´t solve the problem. Got you. Wish you good gaming maybe we meet online sometime :-)

    @ Playstation Blog Team
    I agree to what the others said. You really should change the Word “Regular Price” as it´s misleading. Call it Sale Price ! Or name all 3 Prices please !

  • @greyfx3

    People have been asking them since the beginning of the Plus program and even earlier, for them to update the store at midnight or even earlier on Tuesday morning like 8 AM. It has fallen on deaf ears, so we just wait until it does update.

  • @ I concur with what mwatcher was saying every month won’t be to your liking as far as ps plus games being given out. Getting on forums and crying won’t help changed that either if you don’t like it too bad sounds like a personal problem. I appreciate what I get from ps plus every month incredible job!!!!!!!

    no appear on store or plus

  • @ DMG_SUN

    READ COMMENT # 160!!!!!!!!

  • Way too many people come on here with tunnel vision. Never bother reading any of the previous comments that most likely has already answered their questions. If they are waiting for an official answer from someone on the Blog team, good luck with that! It’s not going to happen!!

  • Disappointed in this weeks sale. Transformers sounds good if it was as cheap as its DLC. We just had a $5 game sale then this. Oh well thanks anyways.

  • The worst year of PS Plus free games is 2014. !!!

  • I get the time update thing. But at the same time whats the rush? I day one digital non stop and at 12:01 am i get my game. Thats on the ps3 and 4. Im not saying dont get a ps4, i cant even pick up my ps3 controller or deal with the now noticable lag of the ps3 after playing on the four. But dont count on ps4 plus being anything at all. That is unless you like mini games that last less than a week if youre desperate enough to play a junk nothing of a game because thats all they give you and you have to pay to play online anyways even if the one single game they give you a month barely even works on the service youre paying for in the first place! Ffffew! Glad to get that off my chest. But yeah, soccer doesnt make me turn my ps3 on and stick it to the man feels more like stick it to the loyal customer. KiLLjoY here, your names sony, dont get it confused please.

  • i want to download the pes 2014 now but isn’t available yet…….. why? the psn is not updated

  • So is Stick it to the Man Cross-Buy for PS3 & PS4?
    Anyone know?

  • @SpooNManX

    It’s cross-buy for PS3 and PS Vita. I’m highly doubting it’s for all three versions. I think this one is the PS4 version only. Hopefully I’m wrong.

  • Stick It To The Man is worth a look, I guess, but soccer? Not even for free would I play a soccer videogame. A weak week.

  • Has anyone else had any problems adding Mercenary Kings to their cart off the sony store website? I don’t own a ps4 yet, but I was able to add Resogun (just like with all of the vita games), but for some reason, it won’t let me add Merc. Kings to my cart. Suggestions?

  • what time will these downlaods be available in philly im dying to play something fresh on this ps4, kristine steimer please help me out.

  • FOX Engine in PES 2014?! that sounds pretty cool to me. Looks like Im gonna be checking out some footy! Thanks Sony/PS+.

  • ThumbsOfSteel74

    @Moofboy: Unfortunately, I’m pretty sure you missed that one. Mercenary Kings was due to leave the IGC today, and they’ve already begun updating the store with this week’s content. Check the Last Chance section of each Monday’s Plus post for info on what’s leaving the following week (8 days later).

    For you and others, please take advantage of these offers sooner rather than later. Maybe it sucks, but many of us have gotten used to the store not being fully updated on time. Likewise, the previous week’s content doesn’t always stay up till the new store update. They start taking down the old and adding the new several hours before the “official” update, usually 2pm Pacific Time (5pm Eastern) on Tuesday.

    Regarding this week’s Plus offerings: Don’t care about Soccer but glad to see a little variety and happiness among those who wanted this. The sales are lame regardless of the numbers game they’ve been playing with these posts, but whatever. Looking forward to the rest of the month.

  • ThumbsOfSteel74

    BTW, I was able to add Stick it to the Man to my list via the web store. (Don’t have a PS4 yet.) I was able to find PES 2014 via the search, and both show up as free.

    So yeah, just FYI: Those 2 are ready to go right now. :)

  • I’m really tempted to buy the digital version of Hakuoki PS3 now, while I wait on the LE. >.<

  • Why is Sly Cooper Thieves in Time currently in the PS Plus free games section of the store, even though it says $19.99? At first I got excited that we were getting an extra game this week until I saw the price on it. Soccer may be the most popular sport in other parts of the world, but here in the US it ranks just behind competitive baking! Come on Sony I know you guys are just trying to add some variety but you kinda dropped the ball on this one.

  • Anybody else notice Sly Cooper Thieves In Time (PS3) shows up under the free games section of Plus but still charges 19.99. Maybe a hint that it’s probably next month.

  • please ca anyone answer my question : is Stick It To The Man PS4 version cross-buy? because i want to play it on my vita.

  • JehovahsWitless

    Look, I know that the publishers get a say in how deep the discounts are, but these “sale” prices are a joke.

    10% off of a game that’s well over a year old is barely a sale, and it’s genuinely insulting to have this dangled as some sort of reward for being a Plus member. Seriously, I’d rather see poor selling indie games at 50% off, because I might take a chance. This sort of junk isn’t an enticement.

    Like I said, I’m sure that this isn’t entirely a Sony issue; Activision is one of the worst corporations out there, as far as overvaluing their catalog goes…but I simply can’t find myself even theoretically purchasing a single dollar’s worth of sale content this week.

    As a point of reference, I picked up Prototype 2 six months ago…for five dollars in a retail store.

    I’m not going to complain about PES, because I’m a sports gamer. That being said, I’ll probably never spend a moment on it, because I’m not a soccer fan. I don’t have a PS4, but I’m not sure I’d be excited about a PS3 port, either.

    All in all, this is one of the weaker weeks in recent memory, IMHO.

  • What’s exactly happening in the South America region? We don’t get PES 2014 and instead we get Soul Sacrifice which was already in the rotation like a year ago and I already own. What’s up with this? I seriously hope this is just an error on Sony’s part

  • I just want to know why Stick it to the man on the PS4 is cheaper than VITA! WHY!?

  • We are not getting PES2014 on south america??? Whats going on with you sony??

  • @Thumbs: I haven’t been able to add it over the past week, even though it was showing up as free on the sony site. Not too worried… Didn’t have the best of reviews anyway. Thanks though. I’ll add Stick It to the queue then.

  • RodrigoMrstDigs

    Where is my PES ?

  • Where is PES 2014, this is only for US? Why we are getting Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time, please review this and I hope PES 2014 will be in the store soon for plus members

  • ThumbsOfSteel74

    @Moofboy: Ah, sorry to hear it. No telling what the problem was then. But the general point still stands: If you can, get this stuff immediately once it becomes available. Time and again I read about people being unable to purchase items in the final hours of sales that supposedly haven’t ended yet. Regardless of why these things happen, we have to deal with things as they are. So I always *try* to add/purchase items as soon as they join the IGC/go on sale (unless I forget :P ).

  • RodrigoMrstDigs

    PES is free on site, new arrival on ps3 BUT NOT FREE !! FIX IT ! please u.u I love this game

  • Not real stoked on the sports game. Also played the stick it game, it’s about as unfunny as Ed, Edd, and Eddy. Art style reminds me of it to some degree as well, which equally tragic. Nothing for me this week, hope the rest of the month isn’t the same.

  • I had sly cooper as the free ps3 game and not Pro Evolution Soccer 14… Any reason why? I was really exited for that game :/

  • @191 & @193-PES is only free for North American PS Plus users. It doesn’t make any sense at all why Sony would make a soccer game free to a country that cares nothing about it, and give the countries that do love it a game that people in North America would really want. Even if it is a World Cup year it doesn’t change the fact that most of the US couldn’t care less about a sport that is dominated by other countries.

    Seriously one of the most @$$-backwards ideas I’ve ever seen. All around I love the PS plus program and have been a member since around the time it started and usually don’t say much even if the games don’t appeal to me but this one just seems like a total no brainer.

  • I already 100% Stick it to the Man. It was a pretty fun game, but it was short and easy. I wouldn’t pay for it. Please tell me Resogun will switch out for something different this month. I already finished my PS4 free game. I would like something a bit longer. If you have any idea let me know.

  • I would love to be able to download PES but it says my subscription has expired. I tried contacting Sony through Chat and I keep getting booted. My system says I’m good until June 3rd. Very frustrated. Any suggestions?

  • Arkham City no more free D: I took my Membership 1 day too late :(((

  • Any chance to see Motorstorm Apocalypse on PS+ any time soon?
    I’m eager to try out my new 3D Sony Bravia :)

    A proud Sony user.
