Your PlayStation Journey 2018 Campaign

If you've ever wanted to know which games you played the most in 2018 on your PlayStation 4 (I'm not sure if it includes PS3 and PS Vita data), then now is the best time. Sony has a page up displaying your 3 most played games in 2018, as well as the total amount of time you played on your console.

My most played game in 2018 was Overwatch. Apparently I clocked in 301 hours in Overwatch. I'm pretty sure that is down from last year by about 100 hours. In second place is Marvel's Spider-Man. I had all year to play Overwatch, so I was a bit surprised to see that I put in 68 hours into Spider-Man. That's the base game and DLC and me probably swinging around. In third place is Horizon Zero Dawn. I believe it made my top 3 last year as well. If I remember correctly, my top 3 in 2017 were Overwatch, Final Fantasy XV, and Horizon Zero Dawn.

It'll also show the total amount of trophies you earned, including how many Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze trophies you acquired in 2018.

The breakdown even includes the amount of games played, trophies earned, and hours wasted played each month on your PS4. That's pretty awesome. Or sad...

So go check the link. I've included it in this paragraph in case you missed it earlier. Will you play less or try to play more in 2019? Guess we'll find out next year, won't we?

January 2019 PlayStation Plus Free Games

Happy New Year, everyone! It's now 2019 and today so happens to be Tuesday and a new month, meaning PlayStation Plus subscribers get new free games. It's sad to think that March will be the last time PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita users will ever get free games as PlayStation Plus subscribers, so hopefully those users get spoiled in the time that remains. Honestly, I personally think this month looks great for gamers with a PS3. You'll see why soon. On to the list.

PlayStation Plus Games for January 2019:

Steep | PS4 | $29.99

Portal Knights | PS4 | $19.99

Zone of the Enders HD Collection | PS3 | $34.99

Amplitude | PS3 | $19.99

Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion | PS Vita (cross-buy with PS4) | $19.99

Super Mutant Alien Assault | PS Vita | $9.99

January Savings: $134.94

Year to Date Savings: $134.94

Personally, I'm pretty bummed I don't have a PlayStation 3 anymore. I've always wanted to try out Zone of the Enders, but for one reason or another I never got around to ever buying it. Now I'll have it in my digital locker. Amplitude also looks like a lot of fun.

Hey... It's Been a While

Merry [belated] Christmas and Happy New Year! Apparently I never mentioned that I created a website on my last post, so I apologize for leaving any of you hanging... for a very long time.

I don't have the website anymore. I didn't renew the domain name or the hosting, so I'm back to my old stomping grounds. I think this is the best for now since I don't have money to spend on hosting and I'm never satisfied with any of the WordPress templates. I'm studying web design and development, so you'd think I'd actually build the website myself. Honestly, I should.

Anyway, I'll be posting on Blogger for the foreseeable future. I should beginning posting some time in January. Stay tuned!

PlayStation Plus October 2017: MGSV: The Phantom Pain is Free for PS Plus Subs

The PlayStation Blog is up to their usual antics. I usually wait until the day of to write this post, but I'm so excited about Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain being free for PlayStation Plus subscribers. Like Final Fantasy XV last year, I played this game practically everyday from release day to the end of 2015. Although it may not be my favorite Metal Gear game in the series (that belongs to Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater), the gameplay is phenomenal.

There are so many ways to complete a mission, and you feel so freaking awesome no matter how you do it. For example, I got very frustrated one time because I kept getting caught by the guards that I decided enough was enough and started shooting down helicopters with an RPG and going to town on everyone else with every weapon I brought with me. All I wanted to do was sneak around the base, maybe knock out some people with tranquilizers or choke holds... but, no. Didn't happen. In fact, it was a lot like this:

Anyway, this game is a lot of fun. I can't say much about the other games since I have yet to play them, but I definitely think MGSV makes having PlayStation Plus worth it this month. Here's the rest of the lineup:

• Metal Gear Solid V | PS4 | $19.99
• Amnesia: Collection | PS4 | $29.99
• Monster Jam Battlegrounds | PS3 | $9.99
• Hustle Kings (not confirmed: PS Vita cross-buy) | PS3 | $9.99
• Hue | PS Vita (PS4 cross-buy) | $14.99
• Sky Force Anniversary (PS4 and PS3 cross-buy) | PS Vita | $9.99

Total Amount for October: $94.94

PlayStation Plus: September 2017 Free Games

It's the first Tuesday of a new month, and you know what that usually means on the PlayStation Store: new games to download for free if you're a PlayStation Plus subscriber.

As always, I'll include the current price of the games, add up the total, and show you how much you save this month with PlayStation Plus... assuming you don't own any of these games.

Looking at the list on the PlayStation Store, I don't have any of these games. I inFAMOUS Second Son when it was originally released. It's a fun game. The story is rather lackluster, but the gameplay is fun, so I do recommend giving it a try. Especially if you've played inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2 on the PlayStation 3.

Here's the list of free games for PlayStation Plus subscribers:

PlayStation 4

inFAMOUS Second Son | $19.99

Strike Vector EX | $14.99

PlayStation VR

RIGS Mechanized Combat League | $29.99

PlayStation 3

Truck Racer | $9.99

Handball 2016 | $19.99

PlayStation Vita

We Are Doomed (Cross-buy with PS4) | $9.99

Hatoful Boyfriend (Cross-buy with PS4) | $9.99

This month's free games ends up saving you $114.93. That's nearly double what you end up paying for a year's worth of PlayStation Plus. Not bad. That being said, I don't know if I can vouch for all the games listed above other than inFAMOUS Second Son, but even then that saves you $19.99.

PlayStation Plus: August 2017 Free Games

I've been jumping back and forth between this blog and another blog I run. Little did I know, the domain name I registered needed to be renewed. Since money is a little tight right now, I've decided I'll stick with this blog for the time being. Surprisingly, Blogger does more of what I want done than Wordpress. Aesthetically, I think Wordpress is better, but there are plenty of things that Blogger does that I like more.

Anyway, that isn't why you're here. You're here to find out how much PlayStation Plus saves you this month. Last month, PlayStation Plus subscribers saved $83.94 with games like Until Dawn and Game of Thrones: A Telltale Game Series. Judging by the comments on the PlayStation Blog, a lot of people are happy with this month's lineup. Let's see how much money we end up saving... assuming you don't have any of these games and you're actually interested in them. That being said, free games are free games.

August 2017's Free Games:

• Just Cause 3 | PlayStation 4 | $59.99
• Assassin's Creed: Freedom Cry | PlayStation 4 | $14.99
• Super Motherload | PlayStation 3 (PS4 cross-buy) | $14.99
• Snakeball | PlayStation 3 | $9.99
• Downwell | PlayStation Vita (PS4 cross-buy) | $4.99
• Level 22 | PlayStation Vita | $6.99

Total amount for August 2017: $111.94

Not bad. In case you're wondering, I'm getting these prices from the PlayStation Store. I'm not sure I've ever made myself clear before. I don't have any of these games and I don't know if I'll ever get to playing them, but having a chance to play Just Cause 3 is kind of cool.
