PlayStation Plus Free Games For February 2025 Live Now

@neurogia: "Unfortunately, PC ports of console games are commonly bad. The general populace doesn't want to mess around with PC settings. They want a game to work fast and automatically."

Ah yes, the old console pleb adage of "PC's are too complicated". Most PC games nowadays auto-detect your settings and properly optimize the game for you. There is very little you have to do to optimize your games now, but it's not like you would know that since you still play on consoles that use parts that are at least 5 or 10 years out of date and still lock online multiplayer behind paywall subscriptions.

"Consoles are not going anywhere."

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Sony is still struggling to sell the PS5 even after 4 years on the market and I really doubt there will even be another Xbox at this point with the way things are going.

@neurogia: No argument here. I typically prefer consoles because they're less of a pain.

@joecollin: "Freebies" except if you ever let your subscription run out they lock you out of them.

@joecollin: If you are paying for a service that gives you games, its not "free".

@joecollin: multiplayer on PS3 was one hundred percent FREE, genius. You seriously don't have a clue about reality. No wonder you blindly accept what is essentially a type of surcharge to fucking unlock a basic functionality. Well, certainly you and everyone else who blindly supported that surcharge known as Xbox Live and screwed everyone, including yourselves. Thanks for that.

But, no. Your timeline of the multiplayer surcharge is completely off. You are also ignoring that the subscription must be maintained to keep access to any and all games you may have gotten through the service, for whatever laughable reason. They're directly tied to the ongoing cost. They don't cost a dollar or whatever you want to purely make up to defend what is a gouging practice. If it was an optional service, LIKE IT WAS ON PS3, it would be fair. Oh, and if 99 percent of the games weren't awful. Like in the PS3 days as well. 😄

@joecollin: I also own a Switch and a PC, on the Nintendo I pay $20 for the entire year to play online but also get a big catalog of retro games and on the PC I don't have to pay ANYTHING. So saying that the PS plus games are freebies is just naive, those "freebies" are the only reason they get away for charging ridiculous amounts of money for something that should actually be free (Online Multiplayer).

So yeah when they come out with months like this, full of garbage "freebies" I do get to wonder why am I paying for this thing when I should instead be buying PC versions of games and play online for free.

@joecollin: bro, ps plus was originally only about games. Mp was added afterwards, years later. These games were never free so he was right by asking the question. Check your sources.
