Get excited, PlayStation Plus members: Sony just announced the list of titles you'll get for free with your subscription next month, and it's good.

The cult-classic shooter Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition and action-adventure title Yakuza Kiwami headline November's PlayStation Plus lineup. The latter offers the "definitive Bulletstorm experience," including all add-ons for the game plus new exclusive content.

"Play as Grayson Hunt, who crash lands on an abandoned resort planet," Sony Senior Product Marketing Manager James Hallahan wrote in a blog post. "You have two choices: survival or revenge. This game is over-the-top fun at its best."

Meanwhile, Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of Sega's open-world game Yakuza.

"Become the up-and-coming yakuza who takes the fall for the murder of a crime boss, only to emerge from prison ten years later to a changed world," Hallahan wrote.

Besides those two titles, PlayStation Plus members will get four others next month: Jackbox Party Pack 2 and Arkedo Series for PS3 and Burly Men At Sea and Roundabout for PS Vita.

New members can get a 14-day trial of PS Plus for free. After that, the service will set you back $10 a month, $25 for three months, or $60 for one year. Along with free games every month, members get access to online multiplayer on PS4 and exclusive discounts at the PlayStation Store.

Meanwhile, Sony is gearing up to launch the PS Classic on Dec. 3. Priced at $99.99, the mini replica of the original PlayStation promises to be a popular gift this holiday season. It ships with 20 classic games, including Final Fantasy VII, Jumping Flash, Ridge Racer Type 4, Tekken 3, and Wild Arms.

My Experience

I'm PCMag's managing editor for consumer electronics, overseeing an experienced team of analysts covering smart home, home entertainment, wearables, fitness and health tech, and various other product categories. I have been with PCMag for more than 10 years, and in that time have written more than 6,000 articles and reviews for the site. I previously served as an analyst focused on smart home and wearable devices, and before that I was a reporter covering consumer tech news. I'm also a yoga instructor, and have been actively teaching group and private classes for nearly a decade. 

Prior to joining PCMag, I was a reporter for SC Magazine, focusing on hackers and computer security. I earned a BS in journalism from West Virginia University, and started my career writing for newspapers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

The Technology I Use

My little Florida beach bungalow is brimming with smart home tech. I have a smart speaker or display in every room, allowing me to control other connected devices by voice. The Nest Hub on my bedside table lets me set wake-up alarms, control my smart light bulbs, and set the temperature on my smart thermostat. I use the Amazon Echo Show 8 on my kitchen counter to browse recipes, reorder protein powder, check the weather, and watch the news while I do dishes. 

Because I suffer from allergies, air purifiers are essential. My favorite model is the Dyson Purifier Cool TP07, which doubles as a fan and continuously sends indoor pollution data to its companion mobile app. 

My pitbull Bradley sheds, so a good robot vacuum is a must. I currently use a premium Ecovacs Deebot that can both vacuum and mop, empty its own dustbin, and wash its own mop cloth. 

For fitness, I like to mix up my routine with cycling, indoor rowing, running, and strength training in addition to yoga. I take classes on the Tonal 2 smart strength training machine, I row indoors on an Aviron machine, and track my beach runs with an Apple Watch while listening to music on my Apple AirPods Pro. On the weekends, I love riding e-bikes like the rugged, beach-friendly Aventon Aventure for fun and fitness.

My job involves a lot of virtual meetings, so a quality webcam, microphone, and ring light are important. I use the Jabra PanaCast 20 webcam, the Elgato Wave: 3 microphone, and a Yesker tripod ring light. 

As for my preferred phone platform, I'm an iPhone person, but I've also extensively used Android for product testing.
