Free Sam & Max with Playstation Plus

For some US gamers, it looks like the $50 a year for Playstation Plus might actually be worth it. The premium service that offers free and exclusive content just announced their deals for December and they’re pretty sweet.

First off, on December 7th, they will get early access (by one week) to Sackboy Prehistoric Moves, a ten level Sackboy game designed to be played with the Playstation Move. This will be absolutely free for subscribers.

Then, on December 14th, all five episodes that make up Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse will be free to all Playstation Plus subscribers, duplicating a move made by Sony Europe earlier in the year.  Given that the episodes would normally run you $34.99, this alone goes a long way toward making the $50 a year subscription worthwhile. Unless, of course, you already bought the season…

There are also a number of other free games and discounts all listed below. However, all subscribers should note that on December 14th, there’s some content that will no longer be available, including Oddworld: Abe’s Exodus. If you haven’t downloaded that game yet, I have no idea what’s wrong with you.

Here’s the full list of additions and removals:
