This has actually happened before multiple times. Why pay for internet usage also? You all are getting scammed. You know consoles even used to have free internet as well, the PS2 HDD glory days.
You get zero value out of that fee, they are literally just taking your money. The fact you cannot see this is extremely sad
Does PS+ not give free games anymore?
I kept hearing this free games. Will you be keeping the game if you unsub?
Nope, but if you resub you’ll get the games back.
subscriptions for games! thats exactly what i wanted!
So not free at all then lmao. Subscriptions for games? Yikes
It does and I always have something new to play between the monthly and catalogue games. Some people think it’s only for online access i guess
(The higher tiers cost $135 and $160 annually, respectively, and you don't get to own a single game you play from the Game Catalog(TM), which itself honestly looks mid as fuck.)
Do you think psplus is online gaming access only? The monthly games and catalogue games always have something new for me to play. I play PlayStation a minimum of 2 hours a day and I haven’t had to buy a game since I got psplus and a library card. Half the games on my list end up on psplus within months. Maybe you yourself don’t see the value but I get plenty out of it. I played over 100 different games this year and it only cost me $80 a year
Do you think that exists because you are being charged a fee? What a joke lmao.
You dont even wanna know pc gaming sales then.
Plus As soon as you end your ps plus you cant even access those free games anymore. You are getting royally scammed
Honestly this really depends on how much you use the service $80 a year is probably four or five decent games that you keep forever versus every game that's part of the catalog which is constantly rotating. But if you are someone who plays a game once to completion and then never touches it again, using subscription-based services like this makes Financial sense, unless you're planning on using physical copies only and selling after
If you are more interested in games that you keep forever>! ignoring licensing clauses cause steam!< and you run on pc, I would highly recommend humble choice it's like 150/$160 a year and they give you like six or seven games a month that you can have forever, not all of them are great but in my opinion it's worth the money paid.
This is so so weird, to hate a game company so much that you get this worked up over someone else finding value in their service. Let me guess you’re one of the steam fanboys that thinks that your billionaire and his corporation are somehow more moral cause you post funny Gabe memes
What game company do I hate?
The weird thing is getting this worked up and then defending a fee that is scamming you.
That is what is so so weird.
