Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection and Puddle heading to PS Plus in March

March looks like it's going to be another cracking month for PlayStation Plus subscribers. Especially for those with a soft spot for Metal Gear Solid.

Following on from last month's pair of complimentary PS Plus corkers - WipEout 2048 and Lumines Electronic Symphony - Sony has decided to make Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection the next PS Vita freebie for subscribers to its paid PSN service.

If it hasn't blipped on your radar before now, Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection comprises snazzily remastered versions of PS2 classics Metal Gear Solid 2: Songs of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

The PS Plus curator has also seen fit to offer up Puddle, an ingenious water-based physics-puzzler, as a free gift to all PS Plus members.

Though we found the first hour of Puddle slightly bland, the game does eventually turn into a potent cocktail of thrilling mechanics, cunning puzzles, and creative environments.

PS Plus subscribers can download Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection from March 13th, and Puddle from March 20th.
