[QUOTE="AmazonTreeBoa"]Well seems TC is almost a week late to the party. We have known for 6 now that we have to pay to play online on the PS4. Although for me it isn't really paying to play online. More like paying for all the games and discounts and getting the online as a added bonus.kingtito
Spin it all you like cow. You're still paying to play online cause they're not adding any games that they wouldn't have released if you didn't have to pay for online play.

I am not a cow. I am a hermit you clueless moron. And no, I am not paying to play online. I am paying for the games and discounts. I pay for PS+ for that same reason now and online is free. Hell of all my kid's PS3 games, the only one I really played online was Black Ops 2. You can try and spin why I buy PS+ all you wish. At the end of the day, the fact remains. I buy it for the games and discounts. But by all means. If it helps you sleep better at night, then please be my guest. Scream "YOU BUY IT FOR THE ONLINE" all you wish.

I as long as PSN is cheaper and does not charge for Netflix(like a certain online service) then I am good. 

-RocBoys9489-
$250 cost over a 5 year period. Why not save that money, put it toward a good gaming PC? You're most likely going to buy a PC eventually, put that extra money plus the cost of the console on top of what you would have payed for a crap PC, then you are good to go. AND you'll save big on Steam games, furthering up the HUNDREDS in savings.

Why can't you have both? I do, just because I game on ps3 with ps+ doesn't mean I don't game on steam. They are two different platforms and have a different set of strengths and weaknesses. I don't play rts, mmo, or strategy games like total war and civ v or games like stalker far cry 3 and metro on console, but I don't play bio shock infinite, gta, metal gear, Valkyrie chronicles, niño Kuni , ff13, journey, etc.. On pc as I don't like playing controller based games or console ports on pc unless I have to. Basically I have games for my gaming rig and games for my tv. When my wife or kids are on the tv, I play on PC or handhelds. Simple as that ... And don't say plug my PC to the tv, as its 30+ feet away in or den... Not gonna happen unless someone comes up with a over the air Bluetooth like hdmi connection.

Why are u bragging about this? U must be new to PC and a former lemming or something to have this much hatred for PlayStation. I have been PC gaming and console gaming in tandem since probably before you were born, back with the Atari 2600 and apple iic / 8088 CGA 4 color IBM compat. Each is great for different games and I wouldn't want it any other way. I play battlefield 3 too man on PC... But I am not going to deny myself the games of the gen - demon souls, mgs4, uncharted series and the last of us..plus jrpgs to go with my wrpgs and new games yet out like GTA5 and beyond two souls. In addition to that I will buy project zomboid, Rome total war 2, and the new civilization expansion when they come to PC this year. How are you going to play GTA5 if you do t have a console anymore?

No one knows how many people will buy either the xbox one or ps4 in november.Anything can change before november. Also it doesn't matter if PSN+ pays for itself because it will hurt the people who pay for live or don't and like to play their games without being restricted because they have to pay for one or two different online services to play online.

In similar situation, but add on ps3, PSP, vita, 3ds, ipad, and games from last gen, or got.com on to that list too. I have invested 1000's into this hobby and my backlog is probably longer than anyone's here... It's an addiction buying new games, playing them for an hour or so and then going back to my main game at the time. It takes special games like dues ex, thief, x com , and the last of us to make me devote time to one game.

Not going to lie, I'm not happy with paying for online and it's funny how everyone is accepting it while the used to bag on the 360 have Gold. But regardless, I won't buy the Xbox One, so I'll get the PS4 instead.

I already have PS+, so no I'm not buying it for the online :PAnd money was never the issue anyways. There is no value in live, and MS has been making a fortune out of all us, or anyone who has paid for the "service" all these years. I for one I'm done with GOLD, and the xbox.

Don't pay for PS+, but from what ive seen it offers very good deals, and gives you games that you would want and are often newer games. MS doesn't do those discounts and the free games they give is old and something you probably have anyway. Or would be insanely cheap to pick up if you didn't

Also, PS+ is a per system account. If you pay for online on one account on the system, you can create as many alternate ones as you want and still play online. Can't do that on xbox and is infruiating if you share a system with family/friends.

We are bashing flemmy lemmys because for a decade you have been paying for online and got nothing in return except cross chat and pizza ordering. Us cows have had this on the house with only he console and game to pay. Now that we have to get ps+ we still end up paying less than you, get games on the house every month and no crappy DRM. Gt that into your head Lem.

A tiny bit cheaper.

The question is: Do you have to pay to unlock half your games or not with the PS4?

And are games in which online plays a huge part of held to ransom or not with the PS4?

Your PS Plus nonsense doesn't come into it.

F2P games do not require PS+ and with launch titles like Warrame, Planetside 2, and Blacklight Retribution, there are certainly games available to play online without paying for PS+

No they don't but Sony stated it would be up to the dev to decide if you need PS+ or not.

I MIGHT go with Xbone this gen. I'm not ready to pay for online. I have a good internet connection, so these issues do not bother me. But I'm still unsure about the Kinect. It's scary.

Xbox live gold is much cheaper.

Everytime my gold runs out I get a deal of 1$/month or sometimes 3$/month.

 

So i had to pay last year around 20 bucks.

 

20<50.

[QUOTE="Nonstop-Madness"][QUOTE="-RocBoys9489-"] Good for you, but not everybody wants PSN plus. Now it's being forced on users. Sony is milking to save its sinking ship company, who can blame them.kingtito
and Microsoft started charging people back when no one else charged for online and they are a rich company. Some may fell some cows are hypocrites but it's kinda stupid for lemmings to bash them for something they've been doing for years. Now its simply a discussion based on who has more to offer to consumers and PSN+ is quite a compelling subscription.

I think you're missing the point. Cows swore up and down for the past 8 years that Sony "would NEVER charge for online". "Online gaming should and will ALWAYS be free". Not to mention how many cows said they wouldn't support Sony if they did start charging. Now all of a sudden charging for online is OK because it's Sony. Yeah, lems have every right to talk about cows and how hypocritical they are.

No I think you are missing the point.  

The point is XBL was never worth the asking price MS put on the service while restriction basic online play access.  That is the point, and the crutial difference between PSN and XBL is even when Sony offered basic online play completely free of charge people still went out and bought PS+ becuase it was actually worth paying for.  

That is the biggest difference between PS+ and XBL.  Do I think Sony should make PS+ mandatory for online play?  No I still don't think that, but I will say that for what Sony offers with PS+ it is actually worth the purchse price.  XBL was always just a service that held you ability to play online games hostage and nothing more.

Doesn't really matter why you paid for it before you Have to pay it now if your kid wants to play black ops with his or her friends I think it's ok for lens to laugh at cows since cows have been saying Sony would never do this because they are for the gamer

Don't pay for PS+, but from what ive seen it offers very good deals, and gives you games that you would want and are often newer games. MS doesn't do those discounts and the free games they give is old and something you probably have anyway. Or would be insanely cheap to pick up if you didn't

Also, PS+ is a per system account. If you pay for online on one account on the system, you can create as many alternate ones as you want and still play online. Can't do that on xbox and is infruiating if you share a system with family/friends.

I don't know why you guys keep saying this.. clearly you've NEVER used gold. XBLG offers weekly discounts for members.. (been doing this for the last 5+ years. If you only take on 3-5 months of discounts within one year of owning live, it pays for itself.

 

You have no argument

 

On top of that, most savvy shoppes can find 12 month live subs for $30-40.  I don't know of ANYONE who actually paid $60 for 12 mths of Live.  Question is.. can you say the same for Sony's Rental service?

I don't like it.

PS+ is great and all. But I don't want to pay a toll booth anymore.

5 dollars a month for 12 months is 60 dollars. Learn to math, or you make us PS4 supporters look stupid.

Let me state this just incase you may have missed it during E3..

YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR ONLINE GAMING ON THE PS4!!!

I don't care what extra "perks" or variables you add to the equation.. you're still paying to play online. Take your ramrod like men and find something else to bash..like the 24 hr check in or DRM.

The reason XBLG is being used to bash microsoft is many. The problem with XBLG and PS+ isnt that you have to pay to play online, it is what you have to pay for, why you have to pay and the value of paying for one company vs. another one.

XBLG was bashed up till recently because microsoft was making you pay for things all of their competition was giving you for free. Now sony is charging but what they charge for and the value they give you makes XBLG look just really sad and pathetic for a pay service, and the PC still has free online access to everything. So basically microsoft is being treated so poorly over this mess because they have failed on a massive scale to deliver any kind of value to their customers in the face of the competition or even do a single thing that treats paying customers like they are important or mean anything. Microsofts and xbox one and xbox live gold all seem to have one mantra F*** you, pay me" and nothing else. So their ire is well deserved.

1) Microsoft is making it so you cant even use your netflix account unless you pay for XBLG.

PS4 you can use netflix, hulu, media apps and everything online that doesnt involve playing a game online for free.

2) Microsoft has been promoting world of tanks as a free to play game. But its an online game, they make you buy XBLG in order to play it making it not free to play at all.

Sony has stated all games on PS4 that are free to play will truly be free to play. Warframe, dc universe online, and planetside will be playable without ever having to pay to subscribe to PS+ because sony said it wasnt fair to call it free to play then charge people. So you dont need a PS+ account to play free online games.

3) XBL, if you dont have it you cant use your console. This includes half of the countries in the world. So millions of people who would want to buy a XB1 cant if they dont have XBL in their country to register their system.

PS4 works anywhere, anytime, in the world because it does not require an online account for any reason to enjoy the system.

4) XBLG costs 60 dollars a year.

PS+ costs 50 dollars a year.

5) XBLG gives you 2 free games a month.

PS+ gives you 18 games instantly, 5 new games a month, discounts on the PSN store, online game save backups, full game trials, beta access, the PS+ account will be accesible on all 3 of sonys systems and more.

So all the bashing comes from the people who feel microsoft is charging more for way way way less than their competion and they arent treating customers like they matter at all while their competition does more for less or are just free.
