Wait, I can "purchase" the free PS3 games even though I don't currently own a PS3? Dang, should have been doing that since I subscribed to PS+ last fall...

Yes, that's always been the case. I've been "buying" all the PS4 games that are or have been available for Plus for when I eventually get a PS4.

It was on the page of free games (https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-ca/free-games/cid=STORE-MSF77008-PSPLUSFREEGAMES)

What I do is just add everything to my cart and check out. It's pretty much habit at this point. I haven't had anything like this happen before, so I wasn't looking out for it.

Same. And, as I said, I was eating at my desk at work when doing it and only half paying attention. Totally my fault of course.

Anyway, used the Live chat and they said they'd forward it on and hopefully get a refund approved, though he couldn't guarantee it as purchases are final per the terms of service.

Yeah, I got the same response. I wouldn't mind too much if it was an actual decent game that I accidentally bought... but it's just some crappy mobile game port.

Could someone who does not own a single Sony console do this as well? If so, that's fucking crazy to me.

edit: Actually not that crazy since you'd have to pay for a service you don't use every month. Still, a year's worth of PS+ free games for 50 bucks is not a bad investment for anyone who plans on buying a console in the future.

I was in the same boat. I add everything to my cart and check out, and I also am at work so I was just kinda trying to get it done quickly.

Welcome to the great value service we like to call PS+, lol

In order to download Yakuza I need double the file size so 44gb, right? Clearing up 44gb on my 60 gb is going to be hell.

Loving Apotheon so far. Art style, music, and voice acting is top notch. Combat is solid too but it's a little janky, particularly the arrows.

Really nice month!
Downloading Transistor here, however in an amazinly low speed! I guess everyone is using PSN to download stuff right now, and may be the reason for that.

What the hell...Rogue Legacy's control on the PS4 are just awful...its the kind of game that you need precise,quick response controls and they are so floaty and bad with the analog stick...I will try and get use to the D-Pad otherwise I cant play this,I keep dying after like 3 screens over and over and I just dont get the Heirs thing...its annoying,oh well thank god it was free.

I don't think they're awful. I've had it since its release and I've made it up to Herodotus on both PS4 and Vita. I also have a sick video saved of me defeating Khidr without getting hit once using the teleportation trait.

I beat it on PC. Just tried it on PS4 and it feels the same. Maybe you just need to adjust a bit?

surprised at Apotheon. I dismissed it because of the art direction (i dont like it at all) but damn its fun! RPG-style metroid-vania... totally fun.

Rogue Legacy takes some getting used to, but it's very fun to play through once you get the hang of things. It's pretty difficult at first but your character will scale.

Douchebag. Yes, me.

You pretty much answered your own question.
It's a precision platformer that pretty much requires a good D Pad.

And the dualshock 4 has a pretty good one, so you're lucky to be playing that SKU.

Well for the Vita it's good, basically two of the best two games on the system.

Welp. Same thing happened to me. I'm also doing a terrible job at finding a contact email to use and for some reason their live chat support isn't working for me. Is there a way I can contact them besides calling?

Chat worked for me. The support guy told me he filed a report and to wait for an email from them. He also mentioned that the ToS says "all purchases are final" so a refund isn't guaranteed.

looking forward to trying out Apotheon and Transistor. Got Yakuza 4 for christmas, but havent played it yet. Played Thief on ps4 and it was terrible(suffered through it to get the plat). Dont have any interest in the rest.

lol...woe is me. such an awful game but gotta get those trophies! either you have problems or the game isn't really that bad. :p
 
After 420 days, I now can play/"own" 95 titles through PS+ (plus whatever Mar-Jan '16 brings) for a total cost of $75 to me.

I also have purchased (for as long as Sony keeps its doors open and/or my PS3 hard drive holds out) 44 digital games at discount....at an average price of $3.30 apiece.

Of those 139 games, I've logged serious time with 44 games:

Free: XCOM, Bioshock Infinite, Dragon's Dogma DA, DmC, Dragon's Crown, Tomb Raider, Zen Pinball, Brothers A Tale, Luftrausers, Grid2, Thomas Was Alone, Proteus, ProEvo 2014, Frozen Synapse Prime, BitTripRunner,

Paid: Diablo 3, Mass Effect Trilogy, Super Stardust HD, Tokyo Jungle, Limbo, Braid, Guacamelee, Everyday Shooter, Soldner X and X-2, Echochrome, Under Defeat, Fat Princess, Cloudberry Kingdom, Puppeteer, DiveKick, Velocity Ultra, Machinarium, Worms Revolution, Spelunky

Leaving almost 100 titles including:

Borderlands 2, Yakuza 4, Uncharted 3, Binary Domain, Remember Me, Metro Last Night, Rogue Legacy, Hotline Miami, Sly Cooper Thieves in Time, Fez, Hitman Trilogy, Deadly Premonition, Prototype 2, The Swapper, Dyad, Crysis 3, Thief, Vessel, Ibb and Obb, PayDay2 and many, many, many more when I get a PS4 and/or Vita.

And this month's additions only add to my growing theoretical PS4 library...Transistor, Apotheon joining Don't Starve, Strider, Resogun, Binding of Isaac, Dead Nation Secret Ponchos and Infamous First Light.

It goes without saying, this is insane.

The d pad is absolutely the way to play. I actually played this on PC with a DS4 before it was on PS+. I couldn't go back to keyboard and mouse.
