Hefty.

[SMD]

absolute lad

[Isaac]

Tony Hawk sneaking in there before the acquisition finalises.

[Qazimod]

Woah.

 

LaD is incredible, and I've heard good things about 1&2.  

[AlexM]

That’s a really good month!

[df0]

Wasn't LN part of PS+ before? I have it in my library, so does my friend and I am certain he'd never buy a game like that.

[Calashnikov]

Belter month. GOAT maybe.

[Rob Rymond]

Little Nightmares was on PS Now I think. Great to have Tony Hawk, that is two months on the trot with Crash 4 and TH that I've been wanting to purchase both when they get to a decent price.

Might be a demo, sometimes they sit there pretending to be a full game just to fool you

Looking forward to the inevitable massive ballache of upgrading my purchased Tony Hawk PS4 version to the PS Plus PS5 version 

[Mawdlin]

Best month for at least a year! Will definitely cane TH 1&2 and the other offerings may get past the dipthetoein territory.

[Shimmyhill]

Thats a banger of a month, ive been waiting for Tony on Gamepass!

[footle]

Tony might be enough to make me turn the PS5 on.

[Popo]

Cool! I own Yakuza and Little Nightmares, but THPS 1+2 is a great freebie. 

[SeanR]

Glad I held off buying THPS 1&2…

[Paulando]

I already own Little Nightmares, Tony Hawk, and Like a Dragon. Terrible month 

[p1nseeker]

As someone who has never played a Yakuza game, is this one I could play without having played any others? Storywise I mean

Yes

[p1nseeker]

Lovely 

[SuperCapes]

All games I bought and never finished, but am absolutely sensational month all the same. 

[glb]

Sweet, traded Tony Hawk’s PS a while back, will be good to have it back. Don’t know about the other two games but I’ll give them a whirl.

Got it for a tenner from Asda a couple of months ago. Played the first level and it's sat in the drive ever since. Standard.

[Mr. Gerbik]

What an excellent month!

Yes, there are two good starting points to get into Yakuza: either Yakuza Zero or this one, Yakuza Like A Dragon. 

 

If you play Like A Dragon and fall in love with it, then Zero is the next one you should play. Join ussss in the Yakuza thread by then

ha clicked on the link saw £10 upgrade to PS5 and ready to launch into some right internet fury but before I could even start typing “4 THE PLAYERS IS IT” I scrolled down and saw the option to add ps5 version to library

[p1nseeker]

Played through Little Nightmares. Fantastic stuff. Very Limbo in style and atmosphere 

[deKay]

THPS is near unplayable on the PS5 pad. Sticks have too much travel, and revert is on L2/R2 not L1/R1. Impossible to land a trick then revert into a manual.

Yeah I’m rubbish at games these days too.

I went back to THPS3 on the GC instead. Waaaaaay easier to control.
