I think it's crap, just as I think it's crap that Titanfall is unplayable without XBox live arcade. This is a DRM policy that is very anti-consumer in my view. Bringing in Netflix or other services in the equation is irrelevant since they are services I can get outside of XBox. The gold membership does give me the benefit of having everything on the same place. |
How exactly is it crap? I can understand that your preference is to own a game outright, but to call the PS+ game rental service crap is pretty ridiculous. PS+ is cheaper and better than going to my local video store and renting hardcopy games. Even getting PS+ for a single month any time the "free" game is a game I want to play, it's cheaper than going and getting that game from the local video store and renting it for a month (i.e. paying the weekly rental fee 4 times). And because I have my PSN account activated on my friend's PS3, he gets access to all my PS+ rentals too. There is simply no way that's a crap service.

Come on, you know why he is saying it's crap, and it's got nothing to do with the actual service lol...................PS plus is an amazing service period.

PS+ is great for the games it offers. But you know it was origionally conceived as a smoke and mirrors tactic to compensate for it not being on the same level as Live in terms of social/MP features: Party chat, community features, and just the little things like getting where you want to go and knowing what your online friends were doing, making it very easy to connect with them.

How is your statement although true related to the OP. Were talking games offering policies here not features or this one is better than that one. But to the point you are trying to make, I would argue that Plus now offers the better service so who cares about past short comings?
