If I kept my PS3, I would've stop buying games and just get PSN+. Eventually, the games I wanted would be free.


Im still wondering how they make money of this lol.  


they aren't loosing a dime offering games as downloads..

no shipping.. no physical medium to pay for.. no boxes etc..

besides I assume they release these games because they have already sold millions of copies as full priced games.. so they've brought in profit and got even with development costs a long time ago

I mean.. they aren basically renting the games out.. $49.99 per user.. if they have over a million users that's 50 million in revenue for just renting games.. and I'm sure they have at least over 2 or 3 million users on ps plus

That and the awesome discounts on new and old games that are only on PSN.  This causes many who would have normally just passed up on a few games at the normal price (usually ~$9.99-14.99) to seriously reconsider when they can get them for just a buck or two. 

@ OP

PS+ rocks.  Great value for the money.  I just recently bought a year membership around October and I am never going back.  I hope they announce the NA schedule soon.
