"I prefer to actually owning the game and not just leasing it, as this seems to be. I'm also expecting the price to go up as well, it's not going to stay at $50 or £50 forever".
So whats going to happen when you stop subscribing to LIVE sir? Is M$ going to continue to let you play games online even though you payed the full $60 price for half a game you can only access without "LEASING" LIVE. Will your precious Facebook app still work, will you be able to still use NetFlix even though you're still paying a premium for that also. WAKE THE FUCK UP DUDE! What you said about PSN+ is utter foolishness.
You're getting hundreds of dollars worth of content a year for $50 sir. How is that a turn off to you!? SONY has given us free online game play from the start of this generation up unto now while M$ has continued to charge yearly. Its been 5 years since the release of the 360 and if you we're one of the tools on their bandwagon day 1 you have spent a total of $250 for LIVE + $400 for the console which equals $650 which over exceeds the cost of a PS3 that released at $600. And thats just 1 console, most of you have been through 3-4 and have paid out of your pocket. Do you not see the bigger picture here?!
Without LIVE you can't even use cross game chat,Netflix,Facebook,Last F.M. and more importantly enjoy your full investment of games with the online portion.
Without PSN+ you can still use Netflix,Facebook via the PS3 web browser,Qriocity,and most important reap the full rewards on all your $60 game investments by enjoying free online game play at no additional cost.
With PSN+ you're getting a buffet of content for a measly $50 and you're helping SONY keep PSN free for everyone. Theres a lot of you fools out there who think if SONY started charging for PSN gamers would flock to LIVE.....Think again XBOTS. SONY could charge something as $20 a year which is better than $0 for them and DAMN sure better than $60 for "US" and people would pay but SONY aren't your greedy capitalist pigs like M$ are.
SONY is clearly giving the hardcore fans/gamers the moral option/choice to keep PSN free by offering a service like this. To them and us its a win-win situation that lowers the bills for them but still pleases and thanks us for supporting the community. Thats the bigger picture you "ALL" have to see. You're not being forced by given an ultimatum like you are on LIVE but encouraged to better your PSN experience.
OFF TOPIC:
I find it disgusting that people want to criticize me but I support both consoles while you're still being a hypocrite calling yourself a true gamer and only own 1 or using only 1 most of the time. I have the right to speak my mind anyway I please and if you don't like it you have the right to skip my post. If I'm wrong about anything feel free to point it out but the majority stuff I say on here is fact. Its not that you think I'm not right, its the fact I crucify your choice of console for the many faults it is and has created in this industry that sits unwell with you. That's your problem not mine. So if you feel you have to delete VG247 off as a bookmark because the guilt of your failure is pointed out by factual statements then adios amigo. Only the strong survive in this jungle we call the internet and its very understandable that a BEAST like me owned your ass.
