Who Wins?
PS Plus has needed to up its game for a few months now and it certainly did that for August, but it still wasn’t enough to topple Games with Gold.
Wipeout and Sniper Elite 4 comprise a very solid line-up; they’re precisely the sort of quality games that are “maybe” buys for many PlayStation gamers and therefore make excellent freebies on PS Plus. But Microsoft is not only offering similarly great AAA games, but they’re also throwing in two critically acclaimed 360 games that are still well worth playing today.
For that reason, as much as we’re stoked to see what appears to be a concerted effort from Sony to improve PS Plus, we’re giving the nod to Xbox Games with Gold.
As we noted earlier, the line-up covers all the bases: shooting, racing, and role-playing across both single-player and multiplayer gameplay experiences. And all of them are critically acclaimed games.
At the end of the day, though, you’ve got great games to look forward to regardless of which service you’re subscribed to in August.
