You have to keep the games on your card. There's no redownloading them once they leave the Instant Game Collection. I'm not sure yet, but I had an idea that you might be able to back them up on your PC and copy them back. I haven't tested it, though.Granpire

Wrong

Q: If a game rotates out of the collection, can I still download it free with my Plus membership?
A: If you did not download the game when it was in the collection, you will not be able to secure your free download. However, if you downloaded when it was in the collection, but it's no longer on your hard drive, you can visit the PlayStation Store and re-download it anytime, as long as you're a member.

Q: How many times can I download / re-download a game in the Instant Game Collection?
A: You can download a game as many times as you like, even if it's been deleted from your PS3 HDD, as long as you're a Plus member.

I'll let you know in about an hour if nobody answers you. Should be done sooner but my downloads are really slow at the moment.

And these games are like the PS3? Have them for that month then they are no more and a new set of games is avilable the following month ? Wouldn't really bother me a Month is a good amount of time to enjoy a few games.

On PS3 there is 12 free games at a time. I think it's something like twice a month they exchange one of the games for something new. I expect the Vita version to operate similarly, I doubt they'll be swapping out games as often considering Vita has a much smaller catalogue. Maybe swapping out one Vita game and one or two PSP games a month.

If you download the games, you'll have access to them for as long as you have ps+. If your subscription runs out then you won't have access until you resub. Also you can delete the games and redownload them later.

JSR was supposed to come out in October I think but was delayed last minute.

Yup, pretty sweet. Had a Vita since launch but the only game on the list I have is Gravity Rush so this is an awesome surprise. I wasn't expecting much, maybe games like Modnation, Hot Shots Golf. SSD, etc.

Löl I didn't see the RO review on IGN last night. I gain nothing by making the game look artificially better than it is. This isn't system wars.danish-death

So far IGN is the only website that gave RO a score less than 8. Also, some of the comments in the review are about how the reviewer didn't give the game much of a chance. I'm still excited to play it, people shouldn't scratch it off their list just because of one review.

I'm so glad I waited for Liberation reviews. I saw a couple good first impressions and was about to do an impulse buy when I saw it on psn last night. It still looks like a good game but I don't feel like spending full price on it. RO on the other hand looks really good from what I've seen. Will probably pick it up as soon as I put more funds in my wallet.

Was able to get into a match, but got disconnected before it finished. First impression, holy **** the characters get tiny on the Vita screen. It's probably okay for most people but I have bad eyesight so that makes it hard for me to see what's happening when the characters are all over the place.

JSR for vita has been delayed, and this weeks update hasn't even been released yet.

[QUOTE="slabber44"]Can't wait to see if accounts are being terminated and then hearing people whinning about it. Saying "I didn't do anything wrong, it was their fault". Hopefully it won't happen, but if it does I will be LMAO! One day people will learn that sometimes things are just to good to be true. James161324

they will not, ea is not dumb enough to allow all the bad press that would come out of it

Maybe let them keep the games but put some kind of symbol next to their username with the number of how many free games they exploited? I could have sworn I heard something similar happening before but I can't remember.

Would be interesting to see if EA releases some figures, like how many gamers participated and how many used the code more than once? how many took 10, how many took 20 or more? Which games were "bought" the most? What all those games would have cost if people bought them legitimately.

YOU DONT GO TO ANY OTHER CHSHIER...What on Origin website you use other method or other check out every time you buy something?NO you use the same checkout every single time.
My analogy is still the best... There is no warning or anything that tells you the promo code can be used only once...

Anyway it has been fixed...you can use the code one time only...

Actually, it does. I doubt they will do anything at all, didn't they already send out the activation keys?
