Hope for better next month.

Darksiders 2 and Kung Fu Panda are the PS+ games for December. I'll probably give Darksiders a try; the first game was fine, although not especially exciting or innovative.

It was great during the PS3 era, but when the PS4 launched they sucked the life out of it and started pushing nothing but indie fighting games, shmups, and platformers.

I’ll try out Darksiders 2 so I have some interest there.

For March:

Bloodborne, PS4
Ratchet & Clank, PS4
Legend of Kay, PS3
Mighty No. 9, PS3 (Cross Buy with PS4)
Claire: Extended Cut, PS Vita (Cross Buy with PS4)
Bombing Busters, PS Vita (Cross Buy with PS4)

Also, it has been announced that March 2019 (one year from now) will be the last time that there are PS3 or Vita games in the monthly library addition. On the one hand, not as many people play on those systems these days (I wish I could un-buy my Vita.) On the other, though, it means that we will go from six games a month to two. One thing isn't entirely clear, though:
This won’t affect any games you’ve already downloaded, or will download, prior to March 8, 2019.
What about games I haven't downloaded? Does this mean that the PS3/Vita games not physically downloaded will cease to be available?

Isn't it already that way? PS+ games that aren't downloaded in their free month are no longer available to download for free once that month has passed. If you're asking about in the entire store, though, or if you can re-download games you've previously purchased, I don't know.

Those games will still be part of your PS Plus games library as long as you remain a member.
...

Nope. You never have to download them at all. Right now when you get them, you go through the store as if you were buying them (they just cost $0.) Once you've done so, they show up on your list, theoretically forever. You can download them whenever you like (as long as you have an active membership.) If your membership lapses, the whole library will still be there when you resubscribe. I just recently downloaded a PS4 game for the first time that I got several years ago.

I saw that statement as well, however it still seems to contradict the implication of the previous statement. Generally a direct statement is going to be more accurate than an implication, so hopefully it is just bad phrasing.

Huh - I didn’t realize that. I knew that once you downloaded a game you could then delete it and redownload it for free, but I thought if you passed up or missed a game one month, you would then have to pay the normal store price for it. I’ll need to check that out, since there are definitely months I’ve forgotten to download a game.

You still have to go through the 'buying' process for each one to add it to your account. You just don't need to actually download them.

Ah, ok. That makes sense. I guess I just always download the ones I “bought” right away.

I thought this was really cool. I wouldn't mind having Bloodborne forever... then I tried to add it to my account.. oh yeah, this is one of four console games I have ever bought digitally. Dammit.

The other Xbox One game for the month is Smite, the multiplayer online battle arena game featuring various gods and mythological figures.
