The PlayStation Plus free game lineup for August is pretty darn appealing .
But wouldn't it be nice to have a voting option?
A NeoGAF forumite residing in the UK came across a video describing a new "Vote to Play" feature on the PlayStation Store. It basically means we'll have a chance to vote for the titles that end up being free for Plus subscribers. You'll get three choices and the one that receives the most votes will be added to the Instant Game Collection list for the coming month.
Another image shows the first three games on the Vote to Play list are: Grow Home , Zombie Vikings and Armello . If this is accurate, we'd assume this voting is for the September Instant Game Collection, as the August titles are set in stone, right?
We'll have to wait for an official announcement from Sony but if and when this feature does show up, look for it in the "What's New" section of the PS4 dashboard.
They need option D for each trio of games.
I vote D "none of the above" for this first lot.
If the majority votes the same they must put up a new trio.

It seems to me MS's Games with Gold offers better stuff. Stuff you keep even if you let you membership expire.
Last month they got AC Black Flag, next month they're getting the Metro's and also MGS.

it's gunna be like picking who took the least smelly shit right here
PS+ already had AC: Black Flag as a free game.
Probably because the comment section is filled to the brim with self entitled 12 year olds whining that they didn't get a AAA ps4 game for free when they only paid 50$ of their parents money. 50 for 2 free games every month for three damn platforms… Idiots.
And Temujin, we got Bioshock Infinite, Tomb Raider, Ground Zeroes, and a ton of other games free with ps+ so far. The Metro's is pretty neat though. The more people that play it the better.
Ya gotta understand this program began with pretty high quality titles and has since declined to handing out the equivalent of off brand Chinese candy.
I do like Plus and I do enjoy it's worth, and they have offered some great games at times, but sometimes Sony can really bungle some of their offerings. Like they have with this batch of 3 to choose from. I suppose it's more about balance of monthly offering is what they need to work on. And as World said they seem to have slacked off as of late. Plus used to most always give out AAA stuff regularly.
I have to say, though, their persistence on handing out indie titles has caused me to find some great little games I likely would'n't have ever tried had they never offered them.
I also hear Rocket League is actually pretty good.

Never even heard of that nonsense, how can you vote when the lineup is worse than the list of Republican Presidential candidates?
LOL World, sounds about right.
But at least the Republicans are comical, if the games are half as funny as they are, they might not be half bad 😉
lol a Trump game? I can see it now.
Good initiative in theory, but what a terrible first lineup of choices… Would you like Game A, B or C that you never even heard of?!
And what about all the other games then, you're only voting on one game out of 6, or something like that?
Well I decided to look up those 3 titles and I'll go and say I'd vote for Zombie Vikings or Armello. I don't want to say they aren't worth getting for free without having information on them. I'm also not saying that they're choices of free stuff is lacking cuz well no matter what games they give, at least they're trying to give us quality NEW games and not something like a bargain bin pickup from a video game store.
Sounds good however as Temjin said there needs to be an option for none of them. Plus hasn't given anything major thus far on PS4
i think its a really nice guesture and a step in the right direction for playstation.
happy gaming
