EternalChaos72 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Another reason why i ain't going back to this shit. The IGC is always bollocks, away and take your face for a shite Sony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Yeah why would people complain? Decrease in quality "free" games, forced to pay now for online service and Sony jacks up the price. You Sony fanboys crack me up. And you broke complainers crack us up just as much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DioTheRoadroIler Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I doubt it, considering it was raised a few months ago in Europe Thank god, that would suck so much! Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madbuk Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I doubt it, considering it was raised a few months ago in Europe Only the 1 month subscription was raised, right? Wouldn't put it past them to raise the yearly sub now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesuDesuNya Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Only the 1 month subscription was raised, right? Wouldn't put it past them to raise the yearly sub now as well. 1 and 3 months were raised. Regardless I'm sure this is only US and Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittens Are Awesome Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 1 and 3 months were raised. Regardless I'm sure this is only US and Canada Somebody in the body of this thread said SA got the hike too. So both hemispheres got it in the Americas so far.

Cleggworth Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Thank god, that would suck so much! Thanks for the info I wouldn't pop the champagne just yet. The price increase over here only applied to a 3 month sub. Obviously if that's your thing you probably will be fine but the year sub will almost definitely go up Personally I don't have a massive problem with an increase. Other stuff in life is generally more expensive now than 5 years ago right? If it results in better games for the IGC great but I still think its good value for me even if it doesn't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Oooooooo. This is not going to go over well with people. They have been giving us crap for months and now they want to raise the price. Hopefully this leads to better PS+ titles. I'll accept it wholeheartedly if their free titles get better. Hell, I'll accept it if they have better special sales. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardXDXtraga Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) It wouldn't make sense to have it at 60$ in america and 50€ in europe, so we're probably gonna get it too I was mad when I read the first post but honestly I probably have over 200€ in games from ps+ since the beginning of this year, I generally like indie titles and actually try them out instead of just calling them trash so I can say I'm somewhat happy with the service Edited August 22, 2016 by HardXDXtraga 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hore Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 $70 CAD just to achieve MP trophies and rent indie games, most of which don't even have platinum trophies????? Welp, time to stock up on a couple years' worth, I guess. gg Sony. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that they will put better games in the IGC tho, almost every month for the PS3 and the Vita is dissapointing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valyrious Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 http://www.costco.ca/PlayStation-Plus-12-month-membership---Electronic-Code.product.100146149.html $46CAD / $38USD. As far as I know, NA PS+ codes work within each other. Stock up before next month, I guess. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bullstomp Posted August 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2016 So as an annual subscriber, the cost is going up $10 a year which equals .83c a month. Still a great deal, the cloud saves and discounts alone are worth that. No idea why some of you are getting your panties in a bunch, is $10 really that much to you? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While price increases are always felt (particularly 20% hikes), I feel like this service has given me more value than I've given it. HOWEVER, I do agree that the quality of free games (particularly on PS3) has been in decline for a while (although last month was solid), so I'm hoping the increase portends better future offerings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AncLEoniX Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 There goes me convincing some relatives/buddies to pick up Plus on their own. However, I now know what I will be doing for gifts for the holidays for everyone. If they have a PS3/PS4 or Vita, they're getting a year of Plus (as I buy them at the now cheaper price) and if they don't, they get the new Nintendo Classic Edition. Done and done. Can we be friends lol. Great idea tho. The mini NES looks great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there really a need to act as if everybody has a stable income that they can spend on whatever they want? You may be able to spend money freely, but other people have to budget and conserve what little they earn. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I get games from plus most of them I don't like but it's worth it soley for the few I do. Also the discounts can be amazing some times for +.

starcrunch061 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Also, I have a question about PS+. If I let my subscription lapse, obviously I lose access to my "free" games. If I then renew, do I regain access to all of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be able to spend money freely, but other people have to budget and conserve what little they earn. If the extra $10 for a yearly subscription is a deal breaker for some people, you either need to withhold one of those day one full priced games you get hyped on, or you picked a very dangerous hobby that is too expensive for you. The extra price means nothing to me. The service offers a lot for me and I don't really care that much. The funniest thing is I don't even play [many] of the free games, so I should be complaining as much as everybody else is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
