I just went to check out what the free stuff in PS+ is this month as haven't been in there for a few weeks. Anyway, all I can see is three sub-standard minis. There are some other discounted things but aren't there normally 2 minis, 1 PS1 game and a full game off the store included? Maybe it's just a terrible month of content but I've never saw only a couple of minis dished out before so am thinking there must be some glitch on my PS3 not showing some of the content.

Ah, thanks for the response. I think you just confirmed for me that I was actually seeing it all when I thought I wasn't.

if you're paying £40 a year for a subscription, i wouldnt be randomly choosing when to download stuff, unless for some reason you're away on holiday for a month that is - i'd always be logging in on day 1 (or at least within the first week) in order to download stuff - having experienced changes before in the past with content over a month, ive found it better to do that, sometimes you end up with more stuff that way too...

costume quest is great btw but my only disappointment this month was getting Speedball 2.... and then finding out it had no local 2 player which i thought daft really - i know Minis are also intended for PSP but why no MODE to have a local 2 player anyway just like the original Amiga version... such a waste of a conversion the WHOLE POINT of Speedball 2 was to have your mates over for the game and have a blast....

Normally I do check a day or 2 within new content date but the past few weeks have been a bit of a blur to be honest as I lost my contract when the company I was contracting out to went bust at the end of last month then had a mad dash to get another contract sorted as soon as possible. All sorted now though. I just had a look at the review for that Costume Quest and it looks fun. Shame I missed that.
