PS Plus is coming to Vita in a big way next week

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/ ... -the-tour/

Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Jet Set Radio HD, WipEout 2048, Gravity Rush and Tales From Space: Mutant Blobs Attack!, as well as (PSP) PlayStation Portable hit Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions.

I already have Uncharted, Wipeout, and Mutant Blobs and can't say enough about them - all are excellent handheld titles. I have FFT on PS1 and PSP and JGR on DC, but have never given much attention to either and can see me doing so on the Vita. I am most stoked about Gravty Rush, which i was waiting to hit $20ish but will happily download as part of my subscription

PS+ is arguably the coolest thing Sony has ever done and it increasingly gets better. This is a VERY strong Vita roll out.

Couldn't agree more. This is insane. Uncharted alone is worth a 3 mos. sub for.

In truth it would be a strong rollout with JUST Uncharted, Wipeout, or Gravity Rush. The fact that you get all three? Fucking nuts.

Sony should advertise the shit out of this and include one month free of PS+ with every Vita. They'd sell systems like hotcakes this holiday if they put any effort into marketing this effectively.

I would love for Nintendo and MS to follow suit and offer a similar service, but am not holding my breath.

That is an excellent PS plus deal.. I need to upgrade my PSN ASAP.. Also, just got done beating the main campaign of Rangarok Odyssey and I can say it is awesome.. Yes a little bit repetitive and grindy, but I love it.. The online COOP is pretty awesome as well.. So far it's the best Vita game IMO pending Gravity Rush for me.. P4 Golden in a week as well.. Who is excited?

Edit: I'd like to add when I got my Vita, I figured I would get it for collection purposes and play it for only 10 minutes and never use it much again.. With my PSP I used it only because I didn't have a ps3 or Xbox 360 for so long, but thanks to Ragnarok, I have been ignoring my ps3 as of late.. And I can still collect trophies and message my friends on PSN... Very nice handheld, just wish it would get more games and sales would pick up..

Now I need to get a bigger memory card for my Vita. I'll trade in my physical copies of Gravity Rush and Uncharted at Best Buy with their 100% trade-in promotion and use the gift card towards a 32gb card.

I'm not either, but I was thinking this the other day. Microsoft should make XBLA Silver work like Gold currently does and make Gold work like PSN+.

[retrosportsgamer]

^ I agree. Outside of multiplayer, what does Gold do for you sales-wise? I haven't seen any deals to leverage the $50 I paid for the yearly sub.

But you do you get to keep the PS+ digital versions?

Hopefully you'll have better luck than I did yesterday. I tried trading in a few PS3 dupes to put towards Ragnarok Odyssey...no dice. The manager's argument: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Games-Promo ... 2800050038

Good luck with the override.

Once you grab PS+ digital versions, they're available to you while you're subscribed to PS+. As I understand, if you cancel PS+, you lose access to them, but gain it back if you reactivate the subscription. The big thing seems to be having PS+ during the period when games you want are made available so that you can put them in your download list.

That's right. I opt for the yearly pass since it's about $4 a month and I've certainly saved far more than that on just the discounts for plus members on games that I get to keep regardless of whether I keep the service. The free games are just icing on the cake.
