PlayStation Plus March content!

With March fast approaching, the next batch of Plus content has just been announced for the EU territories,

In summary
Leaving PS Plus in March:
6th March: Sleeping Dogs
6th March: Vanquish
6th March: LIMBO
13th March: Wipeout 2048
20th March: Lumines Electronic Symphony

Entering PS Plus in March:
6th March: Mass Effect 3
6th March: Dead or Alive 5
6th March: Joe Danger 2
13th March: Metal Gear Solid HD Collection
20th March: Puddle

Out of the above games I have only owned Mass Effect 3, so March is a good month for me, the Metal Gear Solid HD collection is for the Vita so I will have something new to play whilst I am on my break at work so I cant wait.

The following are videos of Mass Effect 3 and Dead or Alive 5,

I will do a review for Dead or Alive 5 if I decide to download it as fighters aren't really my genre of games, after dabbling in games such as Mortal Kombat and Soul Callibur I can see that I dont have the knack or skill required and instead just submit to button mashing the control in a hope I pull of a really cool move, and instead just end up doing the same kick or punch over and over until the opponents health gets fully depleted.

My next blog post I will try to detail all that I can find out on the next Sony console, The PlayStation 4.

as ever thanks for reading please feel free to comment or follow my blog.

Looking at the list, once again publishers are setting their prices too high to purchase full retail games, especially when they can be had for less from walking down to the local retailer that sells games and also then have the option to trade them in at a later date if you so wish.

Grand Theft Auto 5 release date

Rockstar have finally penned in when they are going to be selling the next game in the ever popular Grand Theft Auto franchise by releasing this poster on their Facebook page,

According to their newsletter this is slightly later than they had originally planned and said the small delay was just to make the game as good as it needs to be and there was no ulterior motive behind the delay.

Enjoy this video that they have released recently to show off the new addition.

PS Vita EU release date confirmed
