PlayStation 4 launch titles and games
By Mike Dyce
The Sony PlayStation 4 is releasing tonight and you can pick one up at midnight launch parties across the country. There are also some games available for purchase and we have the list for you below.
The “Media Type” column might confuse you, so let me explain. Retail means that the game is a hard copy, on a disk like you’re used to. You will need to physically buy this game at a store and bring it home with you. Then you see the abbreviations PSN, PS + and F2P.
PSN is the PlayStation Network where you can find downloadable content, upgrades and online mulitplayer. PS + is PlayStation Plus, a package that requires a membership and fee. For a year it is $49.99 or for three months it is $17.99. The F2P stands for “free to play.”
Now just because it is on PS Plus doesn’t mean you can’t get it. some of the games are available for purchase with out a PS Plus membership. For instance, Contrast would cost $14.99 with out PS Plus. But for a yearly subscription, you’d save money on all the games.
