That's why we see most of these games on PS+ probably more than the money--though upfront money is certain great for a developer. It's kind of like "the first hit is free" method many drug dealers favor. |
SR3 a month before SR4 came out, Borderlands 1 right before BL2, BF3 months before 4 comes out, and there was at least one more game that came out on Plus right before its sequel. I think this is a great strategy. Hell I wasn't really considering SR4 until I played 3 on Plus free. I'm still waiting till BF on it but I will get it at $30 or so.
