PS3 Legacy: 1
PSP Legacy: 0
PS1 Legacy: 0
Nothing for PS1? Don’t tell me you guys ran out! We’ve been classics for about 2 months straight, so I’ll let it slide this time. One overpriced PS3 legacy isn’t really awe-inspiring though. $30 for a year old racing game in a very crowded genre sucks quite frankly. Amusing how its cheaper than Split/Second PSP…
Five new PSN games, two of which have demos, is solid. Four PSP games is a good bump as well. DLC ranges from good (YDKJ) to ugh ($15 to unlock all cars/events in Shift 2… if anyone buys that humanity may as well call it quits). Nice amount of demos and videos to boot. Makes me hope the days of games dumped on PSN with zero accompanying media are numbered. :) Good special offers courtesy of XSeed (PSP rpg lovers get Lunar & Ys if you already haven’t!) round off another good update.
The month of March as a whole was pretty darn good for PSN Store updates. Keep up this strong pace Sony & 3rd Parties!
thanks for another great update Grace =]
Thumbs up!
Very early update today Grace. u got a date tonight or what?
2nd
Still not happy with the prices of the TIger Woods PGA MASTERS…..extra courses are $3.99 each, and the fantasy courses are $6.99 each….but its A LOT better then last years prices…$9.99 for the Predator.. cxome on lol
Who’s downloading Free Realms? 2 thumbs pointed at this guy
Moon Diver looks interesting, guess I’ll try out the demo and buy if it’s any good
When is Lara Croft & The Guardian of Light going to be on sale?
Loving the early updates lately. Being on the east coast has made for some late nights in the past.
Anyway, great update this time. Free Realms has been anticipated by pretty much my entire household. Just wish I knew how the memberships will work across multiple units using sub accounts.
Now all I need to do is wait to be able to actually play Free Realms and it stops mentioning not being able to launch the game.
I give that another 20 minutes to an hour at the least.
now they just need to make the servers for free realms live because I can’t get on and I finish downloading it about an hours ago
Mass Effect 2 dlc, here I come! Surprising that the file isn’t very big for a game like Mass Effect 2, hope it’s not really short.
Where’s the Killzone 3 map pack DLC?
I’m assuming these prices a flipped?

MOON DIVER IS PSN EXCLUSIVE ???
Thanks for rehashing the two minis and PS1 game.
It’s nice to know Sony is saving money, rather than giving me new content each month like I paid for.
*PROUD DISAPPOINTED PLUS SUBSCRIBER*
wasn’t the marvel Vs Capcom 3 avatar bundle suppose to be released today? I want a Deadpool avatar lol
No FF avatars that Japan has? Oh well, at least there’s free dlc for Dissidia…
No avatars? :(
Vote for NFL all access on PS3 goo.gl/eIDlX on blog.share
On a side note upgrading my hard drive yeah!!!
D’oh! I made a typo when pointing out a typo.
anyone bought dissidia off the psn?
Wow, I didn’t expect the update to come so soon. Thanks for the update. Do any of you know if you can still get the downloadable costume for Dissidia 012 if you purchase it on the PlayStation Store?
What is a Demp?
lol… Chime Super Deluxe Demp
Nice…
DISSIDIA!!!!!!FREE!!!!! WARRIOR OF LIGHT!!!!! PSN you have made my day
Good update this week! Only complaint is Split/Second is about $10 overpriced. Publishers need to be a little more competitive with thier pricing when it comes to year-old (or more) games.
EA… that is some of the cheapest, crappiest DLC I’ve ever seen! >_< Seriously, 15 bucks to unlock everything in a game? lol I guess if some goofball is willing to hand them free money then more power to em! XD
Moon Diver seems interesting. I’ll be getting the demo, at least.
“DISSIDIA 012[duodecim] FINAL FANTASY – Warrior Of Light (Free)”
That has reinstilled my fate in Squeenix.
Now, I will buy duodecim.
Get Tannen, I love back to the future! DL now!
Moon Diver $15 with no PS+ discount? Looks like I’ll be saving my money then.
Also, make a version of echochrome 2 where I’m not required to buy a motion controller & camera to play it. I played the first game with a regular controller so why can’t I play the second one with a regular controller? I’m sure sequels to God of War, Killzone, & other games will eventually require you to use a motion controller to play them as well.
Motion gaming fad is just as bad as the 3D fad.
@31 Faith, I meant faith.
(facepalm)
I saw on the Japanese store that they have Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy avatars, any chance that we might get them in North America?
Not bad I guess, I’ll go try that echochrome ii demo.
Pressure D3 Publisher into make a Gods Eater Burst PSP theme!
i give free realms 3 weeks before servers go live :0
Wow, I’m still not used to these early updates lol! Nothing for me this week; heard rumours that the Killzone 3 Steel Rain DLC was coming out this week but I guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer for that :).
Weren’t Space Shooter for 2 Bucks and Abe’s Exxodus already free to PS+ subscribers once before? Hard to believe there are already repeats less than a year into the program.
I’m also questioning why the prices of the newest PSP Greatest Hits and Favorites still haven’t been updated.
hasn’t A Space Shooter for 2 bucks been free for Plus members already?
The free Dissidia DLC is just the Warrior of Lights default costume minus the helmet for all those excited. lol
The Ps+ looks good and Free Realm seems interesting. other than that nothing else for me. psp has always been lacking and its just none of those games seems that interesting to me. it would be nice to get some old games on the psn. seems like you guys just dont care for the old psp games anymore. really pathetic in my opinion. i mean if anything give us a reason as to why things arent getting released. When asking Devs they basically give the generic “we have no plans” or “Sony hasnt contacted us” letter which in my opinion is Bull.
But asking for a reason on here is pointless since you guys never seem to reply to people who actually ask question and only reply to people who only give positive comments. pretty sad for a company us fans help raise cant even take simple criticism.
Again all i ask for is games like Crisis Core, or the anime based games like Naruto to be release, but you guys dont care, you never cared for us.
Wow. This is one of the biggest updates for Plus I have seen. And it is made of Win.
thanks for the early update, but what’s with the repeats on the free ps+ games?
Oh, yeah! It’s Free Realms time.
I’ll give it a try.
@43 T40Rs731N
You must be a new Plus subscriber.
We got Vector TD, A Space Shooter for $2, and Oddworld a few months ago. This Plus update is practically empty for a lot of us.
not bad of an update… im glad theres an echochrome 2 demo up… iv been wanting to give that a go for some time
I REALLY want Arrival, but at the rate i download it, i won’t get to play until tomorow at least :( Oh well. At least I have it :D
