What will happen to ps+ in the next years with PS3? I mean at some time the support for PS3 will fade so new games that get added will also fade out or it will only get old and/or crappy games but if you quit ps+ your games will also disappear. I think at some point it won't be worth the money but you have to pay to keep the games.
Are there any details how Sony will solve this?


By it being one sub for all platforms, they will decrease the number of PS3 games and increase the number of PS4 ones or Vita ones if it magically becomes popular.


I know but what if you don't want to buy a PS4? Or a Vita (not that unprobably...)? The value for PS3 will decrease while the amount of money you have to spend will not decrease.


Yeah PS+ is clearly insentivising people to upgrade, because it lets you add these other platforms games to your collection even if you dont own the platform, ive seen it happen with the vita, this last 3 months 4 people in my office have bought a vita, soley on the fact that they owned like 20 games to play on it. 

PS+ is a very clever marketing tool, as long as you have a sub because you own just one of there platforms it massivley increases the value of the other consoles to you over time even if you dont own them, making the decision to buy another one much easier in the future. If MS dont copy this stratgey with live i feel it will hurt them big, the more time goes on.
