LAST MONTH ON PS PLUS

-

February is a month often centred on curling up with your dearest one, but maybe you’d rather be playing a game. Whatever you enjoy, last month’s PS Plus presented not just two but three terrific titles to scratch whatever itch ailed you.

It’s tricky to know where to start, what with being so spoilt for choice. How about with the possible end of civilisati­on?

BioShock: The Collection took the uninitiate­d and the Plasmid partaker alike on a tour from the watery depths of Rapture to the sky-high heights of Columbia. Between the inclusion of all three games and their single-player

DLC add-ons, there was plenty here to make you go “Oh, Daddy!” You just had to watch out for his drill.

Next up, we had another ‘big daddy’ – gaming juggernaut

the Sims 4.

Unfortunat­ely, only the base game was included, and we got none of the add-on content (of which there is alot). But the base game alone still provided plenty of wacky life sim shenanigan­s, and if you didn’t quite have the Valentine’s day you’d hoped for, at least here you could maybe imagine a better one. Either that or burn it all down – hey, we’re not your boss, nor are we here to judge. Here’s to 20 more years of romance, employment, and incendiary accidents with The Sims!

Moving swiftly on, PS VR heads had a total blast with last month’s final title. Firewall Zero Hour was an excellent 4v4 tactical shooter entirely playable in virtual reality. With the latest season, Operation: Black Dawn, debuting alongside a new oil rig map earlier in the month, February was the time to take up arms if you hadn’t already.

What a cracking month it was! We’re looking forward to whatever old (or new) flames decide to show their faces throughout the year ahead.
