I'm thinking about getting the annual Qore subscription, but I've heard that it's just news that get outdated quick and the exclusive betas and demos aren't a big deal. Although, it seems that if i don't buy the subscription, then I will be missing out on all the exclusive content. All I'm asking is if you guys can tell me what Qore is like and if it's worth it. I'll be grateful for all the polite responses.

I bought it and enjoyed the layout and content. It's really not that expensive, especially considering you get a $10 game if you buy the annual. I thought it was worth it but that's just me.

Sounds like a sweat deal to me, with exclusive beta invites and early demo's... I guess you could wait abit more to see what other kind of stuff its gets. Ofcourse your not forced to subscribe to the full year thing.

I was thinking about downloading this too, but i'm not very familiar with it. I want to be in the SOCOM beta, but can you just download Episode 1 off the PSN, or do you have to get the annual subscription just to get the beta?

I think you're fine with just downloading EP1.

You have the option of either buying an episode or buy an annual subscripiton that lasts for a whole year (which has like 13 episodes).

You can get in on the beta just going with the single issue (once the beta signup is available)- if you do decide to get it, keep hold of the issue and keep checking back (or wait for Sony's official word on their blog).

Overall i think it's worth it- you get some videos on games that otherwise may not have been coming into the PlayStation Store (Afro Samurai as an example) along with stuff about the games directly from the dev teams. I liken this with the stuff that would have been on the original US PlayStation magazine DVDs when they were on the go (for those that may say "they were free", they weren't- why else was the mag so expensive each month? The DVD cost was hidden in there).

If I bought the annual subscription, would I still be able to download the Callling All Cars game for free?

Hmm, I haven't bought it yet, but I suppose I might download a few eps here and there if something catches my eyes. I go ahead and even download the 1st ep--since I think it mention something about Soul Calibur 4 and Star Wars: Force Unleased....so that's got me interested.

Personally, I'd just say buy one ep and if you're not feelin' it then it's only 3 bucks you lost--don't jump too soon into a subscription unless you really like it, tho.

Buying Qore is pretty much just giving money to Sony to let them advertise to you. With a small incentive of getting access into a beta or the ability to DL a demo. If no one bought Qore then Qore wouldn't exist. Then no one would have to pay money to get demo's/beta's

i think its a great deal i got the annual subscription and it comes with calling all cars which has been mentioned already. Its mostly interview with the developers all in HD if that matters to you and videos of games coming out. The main games that was on episode one soul caliber socom and star wars force unleashed was very interesting and also you can pick and choose what you want to watch. I hope they offer another free game once my annual runs out this year though. I liked calling all cars but I wish I could've picked something else.

Seems like a lame excuse by Sony to have us pay 20 something bucks a year for stuff we should be getting for free.

If you're paying for the content, there should be no spam there whatsoever. When I saw that Burger King advertising, I gave up Qore altogether.

I bought the first episode and wasn't impressed at all. Not worth it imo.
