Game of Thrones is pure garbage but that's a goooood lineup.
FYI, That's You! is a Jackbox-like party game Sony announced in their E3 pre-show.
A new first for me - I already own 100% most of this month's lineup. Wheee. (edited: Yeah, I don't own "That's You" yet, but I do own all of the Jackbox games, so it's definitely redundant for me.)
Tokyo Jungle seems like one of those games that people really love the idea of but when it comes to actually playing it I don't think it looks very interesting at all.
Tried playing it recently after buying it at launch, it's one of those games that can kill you and there's nothing you can do about it. For example, I had a pretty good multi-generational family of pomeranians going and then the game just decided to stop spawning animals to hunt, so I just ran around until all of my animals starved to death.
The story mode is reputedly bizarre in the best way, but it's locked behind the survival mode so I only saw a little of it before deciding that the game was an awesome premise locked behind a really unfriendly implementation.
there's always something you can do about it
Tokyo Jungle is one of the most amazing games ever made. This month wins for that alone.

Until Dawn is great and I can't wait to play it again eff the haterz
I've probably said it before in this thread but Tales from the Borderlands is both my favorite Telltale game and my favorite Borderlands game. I really like it.

Tokyo Jungle should be required for all PS3 owners.
Also, I've been really enjoying Late Shift. I played it last night(the only time to play it), and it's the most high quality FMV game I've ever played.
A choice I made midway through the game DRASTICALLY affected my first ending.

This is kinda my take on it too
Like it seems like people mainly talk it up because it's quirky more than anything else
But like, nah, I don't wanna play as a Pomeranian and interact with other animals and stuff

There's a lot more to it than that... the story mode is great, too.
Looks like July is going to be Work Through My Backlog Month
Which is fine
Good month for it, because starting in August new releases are going to be brutal.

I'm not as down on PS+ offerings as most people. I only buy games I really really want, so in many cases I don't own everything that PS+ gives me. I've used it to play through many indie games I would otherwise never spend money on.
This is the first month I don't have any interest in anything. Not a fan of GoT at all, don't like horror games at all either so Until Dawn is not a game I want to play at all. I already own Tokyo Jungle. Good month to catch up.
Until Dawn is more of a choose-your-own adventure game set to horror movie cliches rather than an actual horror game. It's a fun time, but I just don't want you to think it's like Resident Evil, Silent Hill, or Dead Space.

I played it over shareplay with a mate swapping and changing decisions. We did not choose wisely.
::edit:: Also the line up for PS Plus is great. Until Dawn is probably my favourite PS4 exclusive, and now I get to own it digitally.

'Until Dawn' is the game that David Cage always says he's going to make but is completely incapable of making. It is everything Fahrenheit and Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls wanted to but never ever could be.

heeey I got my PS4. Already have all the PSN+ games, Bloodborne, Uncharted 4, FFXV, GoW3. Gonna get Horizon Zero Dawn and Nioh sooner or later.
Have P5 on PS3.
Anyway, what else should I own, and hit me up on PSN!
Well I don't got Darkstalkers Resurrection so that's good. The rest I don't really care about or already own. Which is fine I need to work on my backlog anyway.

Off the top of my head:
The Last Guardian
NieR Automata
Gravity Rush 2
Yakuza 0
Bound
Dragon Quest Builders
World of Final Fantasy (best FF of 2016)
Ratchet & Clank 2016
Helldivers
Everybody 's Gone to the Rapture
Night in the Woods
Nex Machina
Tearaway Unfolded was a PS+ game, wasn't it? If not then that too.
It's also worth remembering that a number of Sony's older digital games (Flower, Journey, etc) are cross-buy, so if you don't have the PS4 versions, you can grab those too.

oh, I got most (if not all) multi-plats on PC (like NieR, Doom, Wolfenstein). but the others are great recommendations.
And yeah, Tearaway Unfolded was on PS+ , and i got Flower, Journey and at least Helldivers as crossbuy.
I know Tokyo Jungle isn't for everyone, but it is one of the only Rogue-like games I ever really had long-term fun with.
And it is, at its heart, a Rogue-like. If you despise those games, it probably won't change your mind. But I usually don't have time and motivation for Rogue-likes, and I loved the shit out of it. Understand that there's a story that's slowly unearthed in that game. Play the different animals, collect the flash drives, play the story missions. It's delightfully crazy and gets really interesting and sad at the end.

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir. The work they put in to improving that game past the original is impressive.

Except it's a horror game
So no, not really
It's exactly the same genre of gameplay... in as so much as a Cage game can be considered a "genre". "Your choices affect the story/there is no game over/quick time events". Heck, typing that out, that also applies to Telltale games too. But they're essentially the same style of game. The genre of the plot is immaterial.
"The sausage of Green Earth explodes with flavor like the cannon of culinary delight."
Cage games also tend to involve ghosts, demons, zombies and serial killers. So to say horror trappings makes a game completely different from his style...

LittleBigPlanet3, maybe? Don't know if you'd have it on PS3 or not. To be honest, the base game is a little meh, but having access to all the community levels (which, ok, there's a lot of trash, but also a lot of real gems) is great.

I dunno
It's different enough that I won't try it
I'd love for others to take a crack at the kind of games Cage make, I just wish the first one out the gate weren't a horror one
Cage at least keeps you guessing with bizarre shit. Until Dawn was just boring.
Like, what's the point of making a horror game with no good kills? It has lots of setups that go nowhere, and I got so bored I was actively trying to get people killed, and it sure didn't want to let me. Ended up feeling way more limiting than Cage's games.
Basically I really wanted it to be an 80s slasher movie and it's more a modern jump scare movie which does nothing for me.

If there's one trigger warning to give about Until Dawn, it's that they lean heavy on jump scares. Some of them are brilliant, but it's still an altogether lazy crutch.
I forget who said it, but "It's not even scary! It's just startling!"

Well, lucky for you it's one of the few PS3 games that will work with remote play on the Vita.
Edit: Unless you don't have a PS3 around in the first place.
Which is fine
Good month for it, because starting in August new releases are going to be brutal.
