[mochuuu]

Spec Ops: The Line rocked your Instant Game Collection at the start of March, and Joe Danger 2: The Movie rode in last week. This week, you’ll find The Cave, as well as Tekken 6 available free for PlayStation Plus members. You’ll also find deals on fantastic games like Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken, among others.

Don’t forget that the Get $10 For Every $50 Spent promotion is still on, but ending at the end of March. That means if you purchased a 1 year PS Plus membership at $49.99, you’re already set to get $10 back on or around April 12th. We’ll cover you on that extra penny. And yes, it’s stackable.

Pretty good week! Looking forward to getting The Cave for free and may consider picking up Rocketbirds on the Vita now as well.

First and foremost, I would like to thank you for the new monthly (with weekly updates) layout, I can't stress how awesome this layout is and I would really like you to continue with it. It is way better than the previous weekly updates layout as I can have my expectations set for the month, instead of hoping for stuff that are never going to be part of Plus and later be disappointed.

As for this month's updates, they are just AWESOME. I for once (this year) feel that I'm getting my value out of Plus. Spec Ops: The Line is an awesome game that I just completed last weekend, and would have never bought it since it's a single-player game which can only be completed once. Joe Danger 2 is on my to-play list for now as I'm dashing my way through The Walking Dead which I snagged during the discount period - this was the best discount I took part in for Plus, ever - and am in Episode 3 currently.

I just wanted to thank you (again) for the awesome content of this month. Please keep the format and the great games coming, don't do what you did during the first 2 months of 2013, they were just horrible. Looking forward to next month's content, and it'd be a good idea for you to hop onto the PS Blogcast and tease the games just like you did last time Morgan!

Cheers.

I am looking forward the The Cave for free! Looks like a good "wake up" game for me on a lazy Sunday

Getting the Cave, but skipping Tekken 6... I don't know why, but PSP games on the vita just look... wrong.
