Qore Episode 41 – October Early Access

Is this enough to convince doubters (and possibly haters… yeah, definitely haters as well) to subscribe to PS+? What discounted content will you get over this period? Don’t forget that if you subscribe to a full year of PS+ (or even for three months) the $50 (or whatever they’re charging for the three months) you spend counts towards the $60 Sony has “will you kindly” told us to spend to get $10 worth of PSN Store Credit in November for free!

I’ll be buying Explodemon, Star Trek: D-A-C, Under Siege (70% which makes it a $5.99 game with a Platinum? SOLD!), Prehistoric Isle in 1930 (played it soooooooo much at Arcades back in the day), Valkyria Chronicles II DLC (unless it’s a Bundle of the game, which I already own, and the DLC) and probably some booster packs for the free Elemental Monsters PSN release along with some of the Only on PSN content (all five PS2 ports if done right and we’re working on getting all the exclusive PSN games for us to review for you guys as well.
