Sony has kicked off May with another hefty update chock full of free games for Plus subscribers.  Most notably is the release of Awesomenauts which some thought might be delayed because of major problems at the developer.  I will hopefully be playing through that one soon to let you know if it’s worth a normal purchase, but if you’re a plus subscriber like me snag it since it’s FREE!  Castlevania: SotN is a great game to snag for free as well.  Click the READ MOAR for a full list of newness.
