Ive talked about the old days of gaming where demos were a thing back in the original ps era. Its good to see sony taking a step back in that direction and even 1 up’n it with game trials. Hopefully they continue to expand on it.

"*** This title is available to PlayStation Plus Extra members as part of Ubisoft+ Classics. Access to Ubisoft+ Classics games is a benefit for PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members."

Ubisoft+ Classics. I've googled and cannot find this specific tier of ubisoft+

I think it's a new thing. Ubisoft gonna offer two tiers just like EA.

 

[Dick Jones]

I was hoping about halfway down the article we got an update about Jim's struggles to get a puppy. Keep on keeping on.

 

[skit_data]

Gotta play F.E.A.R, didn’t even know there was a PS3 version! I always thought it was a X360 exclusive!

The Infamous PS3 games will get a playthrough as well, it’s been a long time since I played those.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

It's pretty much what I expected outside of Ubisoft+

What would please you?

 

[ManaByte]

Gotta play F.E.A.R, didn’t even know there was a PS3 version!

It's been on PS Now for a while.

 

[Banjo64]

What would please you?

Nothing less than a blowy from Jim and if he could roll me a J after, that would be sweet too.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

This and then i'd like stroke his cats afterwards

 

[skit_data]

I was hoping to see Dead Space 1-3 in the streamable PS3 list but at least we get the Remake soon and I already have Dead Space 2 on PS3.

 

[Belthazar]

The PS2 games are really just the remasters already available? God that's bad. The PS1/PSP selection is also very barebones, who would've thought that the leaked games are all there was to the classics. At least the PS4/5 lineup is good.

 

[kingfey]

Because i'm a PS customer?

But why are you against trials?
It makes sense for Sony. They aren't MS, who can afford the full game.

 

[Skifi28]

The classic games seems like a joke. If this is not the full list, I have no idea how they thought this would get anyone excited.

 

[retsof624]

I see Jak and Daxter in the remasters list. Good. That PS2 classics version last gen was fucking ass!

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

But why are you against trials?
It makes sense for Sony. They aren't MS, who can afford the full game.

I'm not against trials. I'm for trials. I'm saying six games is pathetic.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Also, players who have previously purchased the digital version of games from the original PlayStation and PSP generation will not have to make a separate purchase or sign up to PlayStation Plus to play these titles on PS4 or PS5. When these titles are released for PS4 and PS5, players can head to PlayStation Store and download a version for the consoles at no extra cost if they already own the digital version of the title. Some of the titles will also be available for individual purchase.

wow...they actually did it. Never in a million years did i expect current PlayStation to do this! Not only does it confirm you can purchase the classics separately, everything we've bought carries over basically. Nice! Let me read everything else...

 

[Kssio_Aug]

Will all these games be available immediately, or they will release them along the year?
And if I sign and "purchase" them, they're mine as long as I sign PS+ at any time?

 

[Punished Miku]

wow...they actually did it. Never in a million years did i expect current PlayStation to do this! Not only does it confirm you can purchase the classics separately, everything we've bought carries over basically. Nice! Let me read everything else...

This is potentially great news for me. I'm not likely to sub, but I bought a lot of PS3 games back in the day.

 

[Markio128]

I own most of those games, but for someone new to the system, I guess it’s pretty decent.

 

[skit_data]

It's been on PS Now for a while.

Never subbed to PS Now, only tried it out with the free month

 

[SilentUser]

I have mixed feelings now, though the initial impression I got was pretty bad. Some truly great games there, specially the PS4/PS5 catalogue, but I'm still disappointed at the classics catalogue, at least the initial list.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Need to see more of the Classic line up but otherwise yeah it's good. I never unsubbed.

 

[Rossco EZ]

Glad I stacked until 2025.

does it still work or have they removed being able to stack now?

 

[sircaw]

quite shocked by how good the games list is, much better than expected.

 

[Punished Miku]

As far as the list as a whole, it's okay. I don't know if I'll be able to fully wrap my head around it until I see what they're doing for a couple months. This initial dump of games will be a bit larger than the monthly offerings I'm assuming. Surprised to see Miles Morales and Ghost of Tsushima on there.

I'm seeing some good stuff, but also a lot of mediocre garbage as well. It's certainly more than enough to play for 1 month, that's for sure. Guess we'll see how the pace of things continues. A lot on there is from the PS Collection that people already had.

 

[Damigos]

Good news

 

[Max_Po]

does it still work or have they removed being able to stack now?

They "SONY" clarified it will start to work again after new services roll out.

 

[engstra]

This looks like a really solid lineup. Pumped to see Ghost of Tsushima there as I've yet to play it. Will sign up once I get done with Elden Ring

 

[skit_data]

I wonder if the streamable PS3 version of Demon’s Souls will count as a separate SKU from the physical because I’d easily go collect some trophies on that as well.

 

[GreatnessRD]

That's a pretty nice selection. Now make it available on Pc without streaming.

Our time is coming, friend. Just hold on a little longer. I believe in Jimmy!

 

[Varteras]

Fantastic move to not only allow people who already purchased those old games way back in the day to not have to do so again but also make them available once more for people who didn't buy them. I've bought the original Final Fantasy 7 like five fucking times it seems. Nice to see they aren't limiting those titles to purely a subscription service.

Even without being an exhaustive list, that's great news. We already caught a glimpse with The Last of Us Part 2 last year, but it seems Sony is not going to have a problem putting their first-party games on the service after just over a year from release. Now I'm curious to see if all their games stay on the service once added or if some of them rotate out like before.

Only having two hours for a time trial seems a bit limited and is the only part I was slightly disappointed by. But considering how far you can get in some games after just two hours I guess I can understand limiting it.

 

[Andodalf]

so basically instead of EA + they have ubisoft + at the 15$ tier

 

[Punished Miku]

Puppeteer is reborn. Now it will finally find its audience ...

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Need to see more of the Classic line up but otherwise yeah it's good. I never unsubbed.

 

[kyoji]

 

[NEbeast]

As someone who plays only one game - this is massive. That middle tier is great value if you don't buy games at release.

 

[Craig of War]

so basically instead of EA + they have ubisoft + at the 15$ tier

It not the full Ubisoft+ It the strip down version of Ubisoft+ called Ubisoft+ Classics

 

[tommib]

Pretty awesome and unexpected from my side. I thought they were just going to charge or make them available only through the service. Cool. I got a lot of PS1 games during the Vita years.

 

[Topher]

Ubisoft+ is part of this? That's pretty awesome. That means every Ubisoft game will be on the service day one.

Just Ubisoft Classics included. Got it.

 

[anthony2690]

Ape escape 1 & 2, Demon Souls & AC:Valhalla are the highlights imo.

Wonder if you'll be able to purchase ps classic games, but I sadly get the feeling they will be tied to the sub like the switch's offerings.

 

[saintjules]

Finally the people too cheap to buy Returnal can experience it's greatness.

 

[Pantz]

PS1 and PS2 games is not much...but it's a start! I hope they will see the light now and keep adding more.

 

[tommib]

Are they going to turn DeS (PS3) servers back on or?

No way. You’ll have access to the offline mode.

 

[Borowski_1]

Ubisoft+ is part of this? That's pretty awesome. That means every Ubisoft game will be on the service day one.

I don’t see Far Cry 6 in there

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Now this is definitely a nice surprise. Better than the Xbox + EA access since those aren't day one

 

[NEbeast]

 

[Punished Miku]

Now this is definitely a nice surprise. Better than the Xbox + EA access since those aren't day one

Better than EA Access since you know ... it's EA and they suck.

 

[xHunter]

Now this is definitely a nice surprise. Better than the Xbox + EA access since those aren't day one

Looks like its the same as EA access, since PS+ only gets the classic version. Ubisoft+ is a different service.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Jimbo, you done did it, you son of a gun!

 

[Topher]

I don’t see Far Cry 6 in there

Ubisoft+ isn't part of it yet, but it will be. When it is, everything should be there

 

[Craig of War]

Ubisoft+ is part of this? That's pretty awesome. That means every Ubisoft game will be on the service day one.

PS Plus is not getting the full Ubisoft+ it only getting the Classics so probably no day 1's
