You don't have to be online or signed in or anything to play the games you've downloaded from having a PS+ account.
Also, if you want to keep the games you can just buy them off the store. In addition to "free games" PS+ always has the on sale games for a cheaper price than what non-subscribers pay.
PS+/PS3/PS4 are NOT Always Online console. Gaikai, a streaming service like netflicks, is the only always online thing Sony has announced.
Sounds more like 20 hours to go through it with each character which would mean about 3 hours per play through. The wording of this is stupid, should have just said the length of a single play through but they know it's short so they mention that you'd want to play through it multiple times with different characters.
Pretty misleading honestly.
Playstation exclusive
1. This isn't an indie game
2. It isn't being sold for full price
3. ....?
4. Profit!
For comparisons sake, which is the entire point of this post/story, what you're getting on Live is a lot less than what PS+ offers. Most of the Xbox Live Gold features are free on PS3 and even when compared the PS+ it cost more at its base $50 a year compared to $60 a year.
You may see the value in paying for Gold but you're not really given much of an option considering how barren a Silver account is.
Also, you were comparing game prices and Sony ha...
I prefer what we're getting here in the U.S. over what Japan gets. They have mostly small, old cheap games and just have a lot of them. Getting titles like BF3, Uncharted 3, Saints Row 3, etc seem completely out of the question for them. These big name retail titles make PS+ well worth the money for me. I don't think I'd appreciate it nearly as much if the free games on offer were only of the quality that the Japanese store get.
Quality > Quantity
<...
It'll just take some time to get the full games but we will get them. Vita games didn't start hitting the IGC till something like 6 months into the Vita's life so I'm glad we're getting anything at all already.
It will happen though.
Odd it took them this long to notice/do something about it.
So you're basically paying an extra $10 for $20 in store credit (seeing as the 3 month PS+ Sub is $17.99)
Sounds good to me.
relax lol

I'm loving the fact that there are free games out the box with the PS4. Gives me time to let my pockets relax soon after the console purchase. I do see it being a problem though as getting all these free games might cause us to buy games a lot less. In the article they speak of the PSN titles but I think it could also have...
I can, and his hand is covering his mouth because he's sick and it's full of barf.
Kinda like those old underwater levels when he's drowning.
Why is it that even though both MS and Sony are big corporations the leaders are so different?
Why do the Xbox bosses all look so greasy, money grubbing and fake? Sonys guys look like genuine businessmen, very proper, not slipping up and saying too much to make them look bad (anymore) as well as sounding sincere when they describe how their system and service is really catering to us gamers?
It can't be my "fan boy goggles", even Xbox fans were happy to ...
Only if they release a Monster Hunter title on PS4.
This is their only redemption.
Expect to see Lightning Hope and more of the FF13 cast lol.
Might even have some FF15 characters in there by the time KH3 releases. Which, unlike my prior guess, would probably a good thing/cool.
LOL, he mentioned Folding@Home when PS3 already closed this feature.
Why not mention Home?
There are many people waiting to hear word from Sony about it and so far all we've heard is "We're not talking about support for or the inclusion of Home on the PS4 at this moment".
MKV and FLV support would be nice, especially with Subtitle options for MKV.
This guy also didn't realize we had Game Sharing waaaaay before M$...
N4G ticket?
Does that show up as a notification when we visit the site or is it emailed to us?
Wow, free-2-play game that blows the likes of COD out the water. Amazing
Geez, you don't even have to buy games with a PS4 purchase and with their stance on F2P you won't even have to be a PS+ member to play those games online.
I'm really liking this upcoming gen, so many options and they're all nice.
$400 system
Noteworthy launch and launch window titles
Interesting indie games
Amazing F2P games
I guess I haven't been following it closely but I had no idea Gran Turismo 6 would be getting a demo already.
I loved the ending of this article lol
Nice list.
A couple things I would add:
Small twitter post being made into gaming headlines just because a dev said something.
Long interviews being broken down and having each paragraph become a news headline in and of itself.
Anything that mentions Doritos and Mountain Dew.
Nice story, I've got this one friend from work that is dead set on getting the X1 on day one. He's the only person I've come across that hasn't switched sides or really even considered it. Most people are either following their friends to a PS4, getting the PS4 or still waiting to hear more closer to the systems release dates.
Sony is in a great position but just like all system launches their biggest downfall will be supply. Demand is very high hopefully the...
