better is a subjective word but yeah that is a +1 on the ps side or +64 lol.. also its not really a collection if you cant actually keep it if you cancel your subscription.  

lol its funny tho.  sony is giving them to ALL ps+  owners all these  games for free.  but ps fans couldnt imagine  ms family share plan letting ONLY10 people play.

lol... i have plus i dont buy ps games outside of a very select few exclusives.  so yeah ps+ > live in this aspect.

dat selective fanboyism

Wow, that's a really weak argument.  For the family share plan (if it even worked like some believed), 10 people could share the same game.  The devs saw no extra money from that.  Of course, Sony had a similar setup, but only with 5 people.  What happened?  Devs demanded it be lowered.  If you don't think they same thing would have happened with family share, you're dreaming.

As for PS Plus, do you honestly think Sony is just stealing the dev's game code and giving them to Plus members?  Lol, if you do.  No, Sony is giving them a piece of the pie.  They either give them money based on how many times their games are downloaded or, and this is how I think it's done, they give each dev/publisher a certain amount of every subscriber's payment.  So, say a dev says it's cool to put their game on Plus, Sony probably gives them ~$.25 for every member of Plus.  And they probably also give like ~$.05 for every game that receives a Plus discount.  This means that Sony keeps about half of the money from the sub fee (or ~$25M for every 1M Plus subscribers), while a dev can get ~$250K for every 1M Plus subscribers if they offer their game for free, and ~$50K if they offer there game at a discount.  So, it's a win for Sony, the dev/publisher, and the gamer.
