PS Plus vs. Xbox Games With Gold: Which Free Games Are Better? (May 2019)

Who Wins?

Recommended Videos

Yikes, just as we thought that last year was signaling the point at which PS Plus and Games with Gold Games were improving, we’re faced with May 2019’s offerings. This has not been a good month for either service, honestly.

Even if PS Plus’ two games are absolutely worth playing, they’re also both short indie experiences that perhaps don’t represent the value that many subscribers will feel they’re owed –both in regards to the monetary amount they pay annually and the fact that Sony has dropped four games from the service per month recently.

But at least they are quality games, and we genuinely do recommend downloading and trying them even if they’re not typically your sort of gaming experience. Trust us, they’re very good.

The same can’t be said of the Games with Gold offering. This month we’re questioning what the folks over at Microsoft are playing at; two very mediocre Xbox One titles, and two ancient 360 games that won’t pique many players’ interest given how dated they are.

It’s a clear win for Sony this, but hardly in the face of any competition.

Don’t forget to download last month’s games, most of which are still available on both services.
