    Put them in your basket and checkout once they get the red shopping bag the games are yours and can download in future as long as your are a ps plus subscriber

    Annoying that I picked both up in the Game death sale and hardly played either. Good if you've not played them yet I suppose. It's annoying that plus doesnt consider that you might have the games already. I'd love to see Sony offer a way to confirm that you have the original game such as a one time code on the manual or check if you paid for it previously from the store to offer some other bonus like an extra 10% off the next purchase you make.

    £55 gets you 750gb these days. I just upgraded a friends for him....he paid before anyone asks (I'm not that generous :D ).

    No different to XBLive then as when it runs out you have no access to the main features of the service (silver is not the same as gold). Funny how the fanbois on both side don't notice these little details. I have plus and frankly when I'm done with the game I'm unlikely to replay it and a lot of people are like this so for the game play you get the service is a bargain as buying some of these games outright even after trade ins would still work out a lot more expensive. Had to let my XBLive sub run out as I'm moving house so dont want to be paying for something I cant use, missing playing Forza now quite a bit :(

    Good titles there.

    Red Dead Redemption is also coming in September, and Sega's new platformer, Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit, is October's game of the month.

    Three good indie games on the way too: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-08-09-knytt-big-sky-sequels-coming-free-to-playstation-plus

    For the price of one retail game, Playstation Plus is dishing out twelve months of great value entertainment at the moment (I'm currently playing the digital version of Infamous 2).

    Nope but you can upgrade the PS3s internal one for a bigger one. You can even back up the old drive to a portable disk and then restore everything to the new one (saving hours of downloading it all again). The only downside is that the more stuff you have the longer it takes to back everything up to a portable drive and you can't use the PS3 during that time either. My PS3 takes about 4-6hours to back up (but I've got stuff since the PS3 release still on it) and a similar amout of time to restore (not had to do that much). However, I just start the process when I go to bed or before a day at work and it's done by the time I get back.
