Cool free month of psn plus and that way I'll just buy a pre paid card before the month is up, for the whole year.

Or you can use the $10 PSN credit and buy the year right there for $40.

Heads up though, Gamestop for this Black Friday will have PS+ for 1 year on sale for $30.

Uhm I estimated around 5,000 units in that pic...

Demand is in millions.

Oh nice I didn't realize you could use that credit for psn plus membership. I will not be out black Friday so I'll check online and maybe call that day after work to see if they have any left.

Cool so I'll have 25months of psn+ and 24months of xbl gold since I just got an xbl code from a buddy of mine for $35

Dumb question of the day: is online multiplayer the only thing you get from PSN+ or is there another reason to buy it? I had Xbox Live Gold for a couple of months, but it did not seem to give me anything but multiplayer which I never really used. Just want to know if PSN+ is the same before bothering to sign up.

You need psn plus to play multiplayer and get the free games monthly. You do not need psn plus to watch Netflix or use any of the ps4 internet apps.

Ok, thanks. Are the free games decent?

So beautiful

Mine is there somewhere.

It depends some months yes sometimes no. Not guaranteed you will like all of them. But if you ever want to jump online for multiplayer you have to buy psn plus. My guess is they have improved the servers, I hope.

They have given away infamous 2, super street fighter 4 arcade edition, double dragon neon, little big planet 2, oddworld: Abe's Odyssey among other titles on ps3. I would say they give away decent games.

They give away games for the psvita as well.

Oh wow, Street Fighter! That's a decent list. Guess I'll try it out.

I've had it for about 5 months. Easily worth it.

Don't forget BF3, Hitman Absolution and Hotline Miami just to name a few more.

I got my controller and Knack two days ago from Best Buy. I received an email that Assassin's Creed is ready to be picked up today.

PS+ is awesome. You also receive bigger discounts on sales for games and in a lot of cases exclusive sales just for + members or other perks. Also for the PS4 any F2P games you play as a PS+ member will give you added content to that game.

The games they are giving you day one on the PS4 with PS+ are Resongun and Contrast, both look very good.

Every month they will be giving a PS4 game to PS+ members and PS3 and Vita games as well.

Here is a list of the games they have given away so far with PS+
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_Game_Collection
Each week we get new games and when you first sing up you get what they call the Instant Game Collection with is about dozen games for PS3/Vita currently.

Yes and jet set radio and resident evil chronicles.

Plus Vita games like uncharted, gravity rush, wipeout.

Excellent info, thanks man.

Edit: oh wow, Golden Axe. Played that to death as a kid.

Edit2: holy carp, how the heck would I even have time to play all of those free games!

 

[smackababy]

no clue, that is why it's interesting heh. i'm really hoping that ultra sv4 comes to xbox1/ps4, and as of now i'm fully expecting it to. maybe this is the first sign that it is?

smackababy it's a video of a "hadouken" cab company with ryu as the washed up driver of the cab. then at the end, you see it's a playstation commercial. also the license plate says ps1994, which is when the first playstation was released.

there is also a phone number or something that is 0830 1987-KO

just realized its the release date of sf - 8/30/1987

i don't have sound here, but apparently people are saying the sound of the operator might hint at some hd version of ultra sf4 or something? i'll have to wait to hear it when i get home.

Nice! I can only imagine Ultra SF4 will come out on the next gen, but probably a delayed release. However, EVO did announced the Xbox One is their new official console sponsor (perhaps, more can be read from that statement than intended >_> ).

FYI, you will not get the entire backlog of previously free games.

Jet set radio sounds familiar what was it?
