Playstation Plus - April

[DJ-Daz]

Hi Guys, I’m pleased to tell you that today sees the start of the biggest Plus month yet in terms of the content on offer. Check it all out below and, including the mid month treats, this is by far the highest value and newest content we have offered in one month.

New PlayStation Plus Content

In April alone the content and discounts are worth around a whopping £67, that’s almost the value of 2 years Plus membership, in just one month! And that’s not all; over half of that value is related to brand new content.

And that’s not all: because we wanted to truly make this the biggest month ever on Plus, we are bringing back the 15 month for the price of 12 offer for this month only*. You won’t miss out on this if you are an existing member because we have enabled subscription stacking, so you can buy a new subscription before your current one ends. When you purchase your new Plus subscription, you will be charged immediately but your existing subscription will continue till the end of its current period and then lapse. Your new subscription will take over and will renew in accordance with the Terms of Service and User Agreement.

Before I cover off the content list, I just wanted to let you know a couple of the extra special pieces of content this month.

First of all, you have been asking for discounts on new content; well how’s this? 100% off a fantastic, brand new game – Red Faction: Battlefields. This is the one of the biggest games we have given away in Plus so make the most of it!

Sticking with new games, we have also managed to secure a special deal with Ubisoft during April and May. Plus members are getting exclusive day one discounts on three brand new Ubisoft titles – Clash of Heroes, Outland and Beyond Good & Evil. Clash of Heroes hits the Store on the 14th April, Outland on the 28th and Beyond Good & Evil in May.

Also, as you may have seen a few weeks back, the limited release inFAMOUS 2 UGC beta will be coming exclusively to PS Plus on 12th April. See more details elsewhere on PlayStation.Blog.

fucking hell a free game? lol.

Sounds like they might be making moves to fixing the pointlessness of subscribing. I knew whinging on the EU boards would work. You can thank me later

I might actually get that 15 month sub having recently disabled auto-sub.

[DJ-Daz]

Infamous 2 beta! Are we in regardless????
If not I should have platinum by the end of today or tomorrow at the latest.

[DJ-Daz]

did anyone get the beta invite?

[InfiniteStates]

If it's for all PS+ subscribers it won't have an invite - it will just appear in the section on the store.

[DJ-Daz]

I read somewhere that it's only for PS+ users who have platinum'd infamous 1.

[InfiniteStates]

LOL bollocks - is that why you're grinding it?

TBH I'm not fussed about a beta anyway, unless it's MP. All it does is make you repeat shit you'll be doing when you get the full game later...

[DJ-Daz]

I want the platinum for another trophy, one that I thought was easy enough, and it is, it's just time consuming and boring (well it is now anyway).
