Are you freaking kidding me..???

Someone please tell me that Nintendo isn't the ONLY console that will allow free online multiplayer and the freggin thing is powered by leapfrog.  

*sigh*

So how much would a new rig set me back again?

PS+ is far more worth it than paying for MS and here is why

PS+ gives you:

• Tons of games on PS3
• Tons of games for Vita
• Cloud storage for both ( each got 1 GB to store files anywhere )
• Online Gameplay ( multiplayer games ) on PS4
• Discounts on all 3 systems
• Free games on all 3 systems

All for $49.99 which you gives you 15 months

MS costs $59.99 for 12 months

i gotta admit the smount of content you get with ps+ its a good deal to get. imma get it and still get to play online.

......Why is everyone freaking out? it's just 5$ a month..And PS plus is amazing, can't wait for my free driveclub, and all the other amazing stuff PS+ offers, since i first purchased my ps3, i been using PS+ never looked back.. 

I don't think I'll be getting PS+. I don't like the idea of digitally renting games and League of Legends is the only thing I play online on any platform so getting locked out of MP is a matter of principle. They're going to have to stuff some goodies into Plus to get me to cave.

Unless games started using servers instead of peer 2 peer, that's the only way I could feel justified in paying online.

It's really not that big of a deal...Human-after-all

Nintendo even have online games besides Monster Hunter?:|

PS4: $400

PS+: $50 (?)

Controllers: $60 (probably)

Games: $60 (also likely)

Total (one extra controller, 3 games, PS+): ~$700

X1: $500

XBL: $60

Controllers: $60

Games: $60

Total (one extra controller, 3 games, XBL): ~$800

It's an expensive hobby, deal with it.

but if you buy a PS4 and then have to get PS+, do you think there will be a large enough library for them to give you free games every month?

Hmmm, i guess i'm not bothered by it because i already have plus, and a library full of free games. when i heard the announcement i was like, "oh" 5$ a month aint too bad either, i seem to remember ms was charging that on xboxlive gold before they went up in price.

lostrib has a very valid point. though for me Driveclub makes up for it.

ehh, no one ever b*tch this much when microsoft was charging all gen for games, many people here said they get better online service that justified, now sony does and you all have a problem with it? jeez

Blame MS. They proved people are willing to pay for online. Business wise, its a new revenue source that could greatly improve PSN. Nonstop-Madness

I think you're blaming the wrong people

There is no way I'm going to be paying for a console multiplayer experience.

Sony had me up until then. But I'll probably still get one for singpleplayer exclusives

With their indy game policy? Yes... they might not ALL be huge games at first, but in a few months time, and the possibilities of Gaikai, they could even offer some bigger PS3 games for free through PS+.

Vita done it extreemly well and i have only bought 2 games on that system while the rest were off PS+.. Sony already announced FOUR games PS4 memebers will get when buying a PS4 including DriveClub so to answer your question.. YES!

Sticking with PC as it is, as always (for the most part anyway). I already have a Wii U and that compliments my PC perfectly.

I have been playing for PSN for the past year, the diffrence between it and Xbox live is they actually give you something for your money. I had downloaded probably $400 dollars worth of free games and the cloud saves are also awesome. For $5 a month i get a cheaper system with superior hardware? Ill take it!

I didn't care about paying on the 360, I'm not going to care about paying less than I used to for more on the PS4/PS3/Vita. With the amount of games I buy the discouts will save me money anyway so I would buy it even if i didn't need it.

If $5 a month is to much for you , get a new hobby. 1 Cheap meal at mcdonalds cost more then that.

5$ is too much? you can pay an 20$ PSN Card to pay your sub PS+, wont be big deal.

Pre e3 cows = BWHAHAHAHA we have free online you have to pay to play. 

Now = you know what now that i think about it, its not that big a deal. 

LMFAO! bunch of hypocrites!!!!

Just get PS+ for the free games and pretend the MP is still free. Paid MP is bullshit, no two ways about it, but at least you get something for your money with PS+.JamDev

Has this been confirmed straight out of sonys mouth?joel_c17

Really? Is this some kind of joke account that everyone but me knows about it? You flip flop between PC and consoles so much it's crazy. Am I really the only one who has seen this fool change his sig multiple times to being pro console/controller and whatnot?

Are you kidding? Cows used free online as one of their main arguments in every single ps3 vs xbox360 argument. The fact that they are now justifying it is very comical.

Sony... you almost had me with the PS4... so close...

But online multiplayer is behind a paywall now. Guess Im sticking to Wii U and PC now.
