One of my (many) problems with this service is…


If they can Auto-DL FW and DLC etc. when I'm paying for it they can also do it for free!! Why should i pay for something so small when it should really come as standard. IMO Sony are pretty much scraping the bottom of the barrel with the things they expect us to pay for. Nothing better than this?


To me all these services feel like they should be “playing second fiddle” to a couple of major perks, but instead there they “bread and butter” of PSN+. Three major services; That's how sony are trying to sell this? Seriously… Tech. a rental service with a few laughable perks.


“Plus is an evolving service” – I'll translate from Sony talk so everyone can understand…


Were gonna find out what PSN users want/expect then charge them for it… Pretty much force people over time… If Sony ever do sort there CGC then who want's to bet it'll be bundled into this.

PSN+ can kiss my ass!!

HA well said, but that is what sony do best. They are better mony grabbers than MS, hence why im getting the 360 slim in july even though they cant call it that because of the ps3 obviously. Laugh

Not too delighted with the sudden back-track on chat. They've once again ignored the one thing that their whole market is clamouring for. 


I'll still be getting this though. I like some of the things that they'll be doing with the PSN and PS1 titles. It's far short of the service I would have liked but at the end of the day €50 is so small over a year that I'd be embarrassed to complain about it.

If I have learned anything from my time working in the service industry it’s that for quite a few people, the basic theories behind the use of a toilet are absolute mysteries…

to be fair though, they are charging the same money MS ask for and i think that MS offer a much much better quality of service. yes the ps3 is the better console but MS is the better company and treat customers a mile better. Its like someone set on fire, MS would charge you for some water, sony probably would just bring back petrol and say no go on, its free. Laugh silly people!Devil

I can really see the 360 'S' effecting Sony… I owned a X-box for a weekend and a 360 for three months (before Ps3 was released) and my two major problems with them was their ugly looks and the massively noisy fans… Both those things seem to have been fixed, no!? And they now Auto-shut down for 15min before they overheat, so they don't break; “Red dot of death”. I know they shouldn't overheat in the first place but even Ps3 isn't perfect.


I've looked into this and I'm hesitant to write all i know because obviously this is a Ps3 forum. I myself will stick with my Ps3, even after this E3… Plus i know games in the future will be better for the Ps3 due to the Blu-Ray and it's all about the games, or it should be at least. I'm over the PSN sucking b*llls… Seriously… AngryAngryFoolsSadAngrySmileConfusedLaugh


But i can see people buying the 360 'S' out of frustration and converting for good… I won't, even though i want one 'cause I'm a secret PS fanboy at heart Teasing Just can't get into Move and PSN+ though… Hurry up with the games!!

i too had a 360 before ps3 was released, i only sold it because it turned into a paper weight! Laugh but serioulsy, the new one looks so sexy and is quiter than the newer ps3's.. hmm new ps3 again at some point maybe?? anyway i ordered a 360 again so anyone with one or getting one, ill be needing XBL tags for some friends! haha CoolSmile

and yeah i thought that was funny! its right though, sony try to be good by offering things for free but its just plain awful. Its like getting a bad present for xmas or bdays, you secretly cant stand it but you smile and say thanks anyway. Teasing

Shelax the kax Anto, the new Xbox is fairly relevant here as the only way to properly comment on the services Sony are offering is to compare them to their competitors catalogue. 


I can't see the need to change console though. I've said before (several times, yawn!) that I'm not a big fan of peripherals; be it pointless controllers or online gimmicks. For me the decision between PS3 and Xbox begins and ends with games. At the moment Xbox hasn't a single exclusive coming up that evokes anything but laughter in me. So I'll stick with PS3. 


PSN suits me as well because I play across several consoles and having my accounts on every machine at once is a massive bonus. I can't do that with the Xbox.

i bought the year of psn plus 5 minutes after it was released and i have to say that im a tad let down due to the lack of features included. but thats ok because they still have 15 months to “evolve” before i have to pay again, so i will use this time to see what all sony adds to their premium service

Let down due to a lack of features? Did you fail to see the many posts referring to what and what was not included in the package… Didn't you do a little reading into what the service was about…


It seems to me that you're obviously a tool Laugh

thats my opinion, yes. and im allowed to think what i want. the only feature we got now is automatic updating on select games.. so thats why psn plus has let me down for month one. but like i said they have 15 months to make up for it and make their service.

@Tatoo………  1: You will have to renew in 11.5 months, not 15! unless your situated on your own orbit. 2: Why are you dissapointed about the 'lack of features'? i mean Wipeout HD for free! £13.99 in england. Surely you can see the value for money here? Also free 1hr full game trials(which stack trophies earned if you decide to purchase full title) Plus….avatars, themes,dicounts.


Just my veiw! I haven't but will be purchasing the full year as i believe it will be value for money.

1. in the states the bonus for buying a year of psn plus is 3 months free. 12+3=15 months.

2. buy features i dont mean games. the only additional console feature is automatic downloads for only select games. (however cross chat is in development and hulu plus is coming)

3. i own the game infamous, so a free one hour trial is usless to me.

4. a fat princess avatar.. cmon

5. one good theme

6. ah heres where the best feature lays. the discounts. prob the best perk to psn plus so far.
