The free PSN+ games for this period.

This period there are two PS4 games: Injustice Gods amongst Us and Secret Ponchos. Injustice is the beat 'em up with american superheroes. I downloaded it but yet have to play it. Supposedly, it has a very good battle-system. I don't know anything about Secret Ponchos, but I understand it's along the vein of Attack Nuns. I decided to ignore that title.

For the PS3 there's Deadly Premonition Director's Cut. I never really liked the title, especially as it is devoid of color. There are too many drab-scale games out there. It may very well be a very good title, but the screenshots are very depressing.

Titan Attacks is a cross-download. Download the title for one system and you can download it for all three. It seems like a good thing, but usually cross-buy titles are from onscure indies. The screenshots for it look interesting, but I know myself. If I download it, I will look at it for all of five minutes and then forget I ever downloaded the title to begin with.

For the Vita especially, Final Horizon is the free game. I don't mind the way that it looks or what it tries to do. Handheld games were never meant to be deep experiences from which you can take something away or anything. They're the ultimate popcorn-entertainment. Kick back in a recliner and waste an hour playing a game, any game. As such, the Vita is a great piece of kit and anything that you can get for free for it, is most welcome.

Over this past weekend during the Playstation Experience, EA released Mirror's Edge (PS3) and Plants v Zombies: Garden Warfare (PS4) for free (and a Vita title I don't recall).  Hopefully some folks picked those up as well.

Yep, those are free to everybody with a PS-anything though and are related to the 20th anniversary of Playstation as a brand of gaming-consoles. I didn't mention them as they have nothing to do with the PSN+ free games programme. ^^

I have Injustice for the PS3, great game and the graphics and fighting is something reminiscent of Mortal Kombat. I bought it to play online against a buddy of mine, sadly he has passed on and I never got to play against him. 

I'll have to check out the other titles and see if there is anything I like, I have a daughter who likes to play online, seeing as I can't get home often to see them, it makes it a little easier to handle the time apart.

I'm looking forward to playing Injustice. I'm more into the X-men than I am into the likes of Superman, Batman and other heroes like the Green Lantern, but still if the underlying game is good then what the heck. ^^
