Some PSN updates: Japanese PSN is crazy! In a very good way!


We don't create that title out of nowhere, we are still excited how Japanese PSN treat its PS Plus members in all around the world, for a reason we will tell you soon! Keep scrolling.

US PSN may win in term of game sale (yeah, under $1 games is hard to beat, we end up spending $10 for several games). But for Plus members, Japanese PSN took the crown as the best PSN this month.

As announced last week by PSN JP (we are late, we know), starting from March 25th until 31st, if you are a JP PSN PS Plus member in that date, in addition to the current IGC, you will get two additional games to play.

And these two games are very popular title:
PS4  Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends 真・三國無双7 with 猛将伝
PS3  Tales of Symphonia Chronicles テイルズ オブ シンフォニア ユニゾナントパック
Go here to claim the games

Both games are Japanese version only unfortunately, so if you don't understand Japanese, these would only have a little use. But, still we have to call this a crazy offer. Since, speaking from our own experience, one month of JP PS Plus only cost you $4.3. We subscribed at March 3rd, just in time to get the February IGC and March IGC. Added with these two new games, we will need to make space for another GB in our consoles.

That's not all. Our 30 days subscription will finish on April 3rd, and the next IGC will live on April 1st, which means we are eligible to claim the games that will be offered next month (and we will claim them of course). We usually let our subscription lapse until we think we need to be a plus member again (normally we lapsed around 50 days).

We don't know yet what the April IGC are, but we predict we will need to do some space management to keep all those games we got by just spending $4.3

Not only that, if you have a JP PSN account and never subscribed their PSPlus before, you can join the 3 months PS Plus for a special price $4.1 (price only valid until 31st).

Deep in our heart, We hope each PSN store are as crazy as Japanese PSN store when they serve the PS Plus members.

PSN JP also have Capcom PS3 Spring Sale ongoing, these are title that interest us:
Street Fighters III 3rd Strike Online edition $6.5 full English support.
Vampire Resurrection $6.5 major parts of the game are in English.
Capcom Fighting Jam $3.5
Capcom vs SNK 2 Millionaire Fighting 2001 $3.5
You can check the whole list here.
