Topic: The Value of PSN+

Oh... i was thinking about it and i kinda expect to see MAG to end up being a fee full download title for all PSN+ members. Haven't heard it anywhere it would be a huge draw to the service.

@Slappy: SHHHHH You're gonna hurt my 40 gigs feelings

@sykotek: Oh, I'd somehow gotten the impression that YOU thought it was turning to crap already...although you must not think TOO much of it having not signed up at all.

I agree that refunds on PS+ stuff would be NICE, but not at all practical and extremely improbable. While this may indeed hurt release sales for some titles, I will continue to choose to buy what I really want and pass what MIGHT be good. That seems to have been working thus far, given how much I've gotten out of PS+ to date.

Wow stuff. You saved $65 dollars with PSN+? Amazing!

Funny how i said the same thing last week and still typed in PSN+.

I just subscribed to Playstation+ yesterday after getting paid.

Congrats, Terra. You are now a part of our occult

@Stuffgamer1: I'm waiting to see if its worth it, so far, I don't personally feel so, but the "badmouthing" is from actual users, since I don't pay for it, I don't really have any actual criticisms for it, just recommendations to improve the service.

@tlink&roopa: PS+ vs. PSN+, well, technically you guys that are hung up on that are correct. I'm used to using PSN+ as the acronym and type it automatically. I know Sony is calling it PlayStation+, but technically speaking, it really has no added benefit to the PS3/PSP without PSN, its an add-on to PSN, thus, PSN+ for me. It makes more logical sense to me anyways. As long as you know what I mean, what does it really matter, its like me typing turtlelink and Roopa132 vs tlink and roopa, even if I type it in the informal way, you still know what I'm talking about.

LOL PSN+ it is for me!

@sykotek.... I understand you man. There is absolutely no wrong in criticism. Its actually a good thing for pretty much everything. I do think if you dont have many PSN games it would benefit you if you have the extra money for the service. I really think over the time of the service you will find your money well spent. Im not sure if its been said here as I know it has many times in the PS3 thread, but the greatest thing about PSN+ ( ) is that it gives you the opportunity to play games that you prob passed up on without the risk of getting burned like I have well over 5-7 times last year wich cost me well over the $50 bucks to sign up for the service.

I demand to be called Turtle+ then!
Makes sense to me.

More stuff on there now again midweek.

Theme 1.49
Avatar .49
Total 1.98
PSN+ Value 66.82

Wait, what?

So, just to clarify here, is it that they add new content each month in addition to existing content for Playstation+ or do they rotate what games we have access to? And if it's the latter, what happens with games we've already downloaded?

@Slappy: Are you just downloading every random theme and avatar just because you can? Seems kinda silly to me, so I'm not bothering. Unless it's something I'll actually USE, it's not worth including in the tally, IMO.

@Terra: They rotate what you have access to. If you've already downloaded a previous month's games and deleted them, they'll still be available to redownload in your download history list. If you don't delete them, you will, of course, continue to have access to them for as long as your subscription lasts.

This means that anyone who's not convinced that this month's content is "enough" to subscribe but likes next month's will miss out on anything they were even somewhat interested in from this month. Makes no sense to me, but whatever.

Thanks for clearing that up Stuffy. Doesn't make much sense to me either but oh well

@ stuff... as for themes and avatars..... of course. I change my themes all the time, I do have 2 ps3s as well lol. Download dlc to games i don't own, then no. I like all the themes/ avatar downloads

I don't download add-ons for games I don't have either, but I have downloaded games partially to get in on the free add-ons. I did list Magic Orbz and Mah-jong Tales among my day-one purchases, after all.

Anyway, update from $69.50:

PS1 Classic Syphon Filter: $6
Mini Kahoots: $4.50 (weird price, but whatever )

New total: $80.

@ stuff... ill be doing the same thing I'm sure lol. Free addon and discounted game equals purchase from me

Oh. The only themes and avatars i include in the price are the ones that can be bought by everyone and we get free.

Last week totals: $66.82

Criter Crunch: 6.99
Kahoots: 4.49
Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped: 3.00 Savings
Total: 13.48
Grand Total: 81.30

I spy an error! Crash three is THREE dollars off, not two.

@Stuff... Thanx... really long day at work. That 110+ temp all day will work on you head a bit.
