Monthly subscription for PS4, is it a deal breaker for you ?

[QUOTE="lazerface216"]

on topic: 

hell no it's not a deal breaker. have you seen the amazing games ps+ subscribers have received over the last 2 years? seriously it's a great deal, especially if you are on a budget.

Are gamers so poor that you can't afford $5 a month?CWEBB04z

its the principal of the whole thing. why should i pay for online when i can get it for somewhere else for free. i guess they had no choice though as they are loosing money left and right.

[QUOTE="lazerface216"]it's $50 a year, calm your t!ts.

So it's not 5$/month ?

Ah ok, I guess they couldn't say the actual number since it's weird one.

If I can buy the 360 to play the select few exclusive single games it offered offline then I could do that much for a PS4, a much better system.

i honestly think this whole fiasco with microsoft about drm is a farce. i think they are working with sony and i bet any amount of money come xbox one launch there will be no drm or 24 hour check in.

Hell I am not worried about it.My PS + wont end unitl 2015:D

[QUOTE="lazerface216"]

[QUOTE="Jimsmith757"] Your being naive if you think the quality of games released for playstation plus will remain the same while forcing gamers to pay to play online in the future. I see a drastic drop in the quality of games released on plus when ps4 comes around. Jimsmith757

Thats what made consoles so great back in the day was you could buy one at a much cheaper price and have a great gaming experience. You can't have that any more.Jimsmith757

[QUOTE="Jimsmith757"][QUOTE="lazerface216"]i don't. ps+ covers both the trey and ps4, the ps3 will still get their "free" games every single month.

If they weren't offering free games every month, yes it would be. But they do give me games, good games so im fine with that. You aren't exactly losing money when spending 50$/year for psn+


edit: i haven't tried psn+ on ps3 tho so will see sup on ps4. Also haven't purchased xbox live gold since late 09 and that was my last time i ever purchase one EVER

[QUOTE="MirkoS77"]Let me put it this way: the money I'll be able to save by having the right to sell, borrow, and trade games with others is easily worth the investment of $49 a year. Think about how much more money you'd end up spending if those rights were gone, not to mention you wouldn't be able to keep your games. And it's not even mandatory to pay for PSN. AND there's lots of free games to boot for all systems. At this point, I'm so appreciative of what Sony has done that I have absolutely no problem giving them as much money and support as I can muster. Our consumer rights and the economic value they afford far outweighs having to pay a little more, and that is optional as well. PurpleMan5000

It really sucks and kinda gets rid of one of thier aces. Im PS+ already so it doesint kill me but its unfair to others. The only silver lineing is that PS+ is not just paying to play online you get alot of benifits from it as well.

No but I'm not getting Plus.

i got a wiiu so no

I dont really care about paying for online, just because I don't really like online play much as it is. I'll just not pay it and enjoy single player and local multiplayer.

Sure is for me, i was allready saving up for a PS4 and when i saw the announcment than it will have a monthly subscription to play games online i lost all intrest compleatly. Both the Xbone and PS4 are now non-existant for me because of this. I'll just use this money to upgrade my PC instead of buying any next gen consoles, no way i'm paying a monthly subscription for a basic thing such as online play.

I was so happy during the start of E3 and now i'm just sad all because of that one thing Sony did, won't be picking up any next gen consoles ever.

It's not a deal breaker for me, but it does mean the PS4 has less value for me.

What service it provides, that my PC doesn't already, is a rental service where I don't get to choose the games, and that's not something I care for very much.

It adds to the reason so yes that + the lackluster games shown=MEH. I'am probably going PC/3DS next GEN, never thought I'd say I'd take PC over console LOL.

amazing how suddenly paying to play online is not a bad thing anymore :cool:Tessellation

We all knew cows wouldn't really switch over to PC or Wii U for their gaming needs.

Part of being a cow is the blind loyalism to Sony.

Price is a pretty factor as well £349+£40 PSN+ is equivalent to roughly $600-630 I can build a fairly decent PC base unit for that price.

It's gonna have a huge effect on me, I didn't see that coming at all, guess those "free online" advantages are over. This may increase my time with PC gaming more.
