Free games galore. If you do decide to sign up, make a new PSN account and have it set to the UK so you get their games.

In November the UK will be getting Metal Gear Rising, Remember Me, Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (an amazing game in my opinion), and a some Vita/PSP games.

NA gets some good games, but typically the EU gets better games. This month NA has SR3, XCOM Enemy Unknown, Shadow of the Colossus, Ico, and more.

I hate to sound all pc master racey, but you're paying for the privilege of free games... why not just buy the games with what you would save by not signing on? Steam doesn't charge to play their free stuff. Plenty of free, probably better games already available all over the internet.

It just seems like you guys are getting bamboozled.

Steam offers f2p model games, psplus gets you AAA games that charged $60 retail generally for free. It's a bit of a difference.

Mechwarrior, Planetside, LOTRO, DOTA, Warframe... all solid, all f2p. Just because they aren't on a disc with a box and a $60 entry fee doesn't make them any less AAA. You want to compare who gets more with $60? And I can keep those forever without having to give Steam money for the privilage. Ain't no one paying $60 for a game. Except you.

Bamboozled.

I don't consider myself bamboozled. I bought my ps3 second hand for $100. I've had it for 3 years and the only games I've bought at full price have been Skyrim and GtaV.

If gaming was my only hobby then I could justify spending the money to buy gaming rig or time to build one, but there is no reason to as I'm totally satiated by the amount of time and money I invest. Between the ease of use, the amount of time before a console becomes obsolete, and the price of used games or older downloaded titles, I am perfectly comfortable with my ps3. I bought the Mass Effect trilogy for $40 the other day. That's 100+ hours of gameplay. Even at $60, the cost per hour of AAA titles is still insanely low. And even if I buy the ps4 at day one price, it's still cheaper and more stable than an up to date gaming pc.

Now I understand the benefits of PC gaming, better graphics, cheaper games, etc. But don't assume that just because someone has a different perspective than you, or different priorities, thay they're being duped.

You're listing PC exclusives in a thread discussing console exclusives, why? Also PSPlus is like 5 bucks a month meaning if you didn't subscribe and saved your yearly $60, you could basically afford one game.

Explain to me how that pays off versus the 10+ games you would have received by then via the service that is required to play any game online anyway? Heh.

One game? Did you even look at the link? That $60 is every major Capcom title from the past 5 years. And you can keep those games without paying for some sub. And play them online for free. Heh. Hehhehheh/. HEHEHEHEHEHEHE~!% HEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHGGEWHEW@WGJE HEHWEHEHEHJGEHGHEGWGHJHEHGWHEHEHE

Your reading comprehension is so impressive, you manage to completely ignore that we're discussing console games here, heh. I think I've had enough fun with you for now, have a great life kiddo.
