Uncharted didn't change gaming, God of War didn't change gaming. Killzone and Infamous didn't change gaming either (and Second Son simply wasn't as good and fully featured as its two prequels were) They all got very good if not excellent reviews, in many case snatching away the GotY awards from the truly innovative and forward thinking games like Demon's Souls.
The free game is not listed in the PS+ usual section of the PS store.
EDIT: only 45 seconds to play the game!
Is it listed somewhere else or is it not listed at all?
In the normal list of games, the "free" edition must be there.
Maybe try to enter 'driveclub' in the search form?
