Today is your last chance to grab the PlayStation Plus free games for October! Friday the 13th and Laser League, along with five other titles will be going away. Starting tomorrow, November 6, an all new lineup of games will be introduced. You don’t have to download the games right away. Once they are redeemed, as long as you have an active PlayStation Plus subscription, you will have access to these games whenever you want to download and play them.
You can redeem each of them by heading over to the PlayStation Store and adding them to your cart, or by logging in on your PS4 and visiting the PS Plus tab. November 6 will introduce Yakuza: Kiwami, a remake of the original Yakuza game. You’ll also get access to Bulletstrom: Full Clip Edition, the remastered version of the insane and over-the-top first-person shooter. Both PS4 titles this month are excellent games that shouldn’t be missed, even if they are both remakes/remasters of older games. The PS3 and Vita titles also offer some great bonuses in the final months of Sony offering games for those platforms.

What Do You Think of the Full PlayStation Classic Games List?
The full list of games has been revealed! Here's what we think of them.

Looking at both NA and JP versions of the PlayStation Classic, there's nothing on either that makes me need one. OK, maybe Parasite Eve, but a single game alone does not a purchase make.

I think the Japanese lineup edges out the rest in terms of better games, though nothing on either lineup makes me have to buy it.

I'm pretty disappointed in the final list. I think it hardly represents the classics of that era, and misses out on a lot of what I would consider to be the 20 essential games on the platform. Of course, many of those games are seeing re-releases, remasters, or even simply availability on the PSN as a PS One Classic.
Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy VII are great additions, but why Twisted Metal over Twisted Metal 2 (which was a far more classic PS1 game). Not to mention that there are plenty of games associated with the PS1 that are clearly missing, like Crash, Spyro, MediEvil, and many others that obviously were excluded in interest of their remake counterparts on the PS4.
The novelty of playing a bunch of classic games is kind of lost when the system isn't actually filled to the brim with the games that made the PS1 a classic.

I think Japan has the stronger lineup of the two. In general, both are great. There are a lot of good games here and they really exemplify what set the PlayStation apart.

Most of those games I already own via the PS Store, so I'm really not seeing the point in investing in a Classic. It's great to see so many PlayStation-defining classics on the console, but their availability in the online store almost makes this mini-console moot.

I have the dreaded "mixed feelings" about this one, chief. On one hand, it's wild to see Revelations: Persona, a game nobody cared about in the 90s, show up here due to how far Atlus has come since. On the other hand, that is not a game that comes to mind, as much as I'm into Shin Megami Tensei, as a "PlayStation Classic."
Stuff like that sort of exposes the problem with this thing, as many games more associated with the PlayStation brand from that era are either tied up in licensing, or even out and playable in recent remasters or remakes already, which is probably why something as prolific as Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is missing.That said there is plenty of cool stuff here, such as the original Rayman, Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, and Mr. Driller, all of which being games that don't get nearly enough love today, and despite not being "AAA" in a sense are all milestone moments in gaming history.
