DriveClub’s upgrade program is anti-consumer and a slap in the face to PS4 fans #NoExcuse

Since the game is available on disc then the only part that I see as bad is that millions will buy the game without realizing the PS+ tie in to the digital version.

But since this is a game that requires online gameplay to really be of any use and online gameplay in itself requires PS+... what is the bad thing here again?

Millions seems too high. You can buy the full game digitally for $60, completely ignoring the PS Plus deal. And there might very well be a disclaimer when upgrading the PS Plus that tells you that the upgraded version will be tied to PS Plus.

Honestly the number of people doing this unknowingly and then actually being negatively affected by this, because their subscription runs out while they're still playing is probably going to be ridiculously small.

But does that make it ok? You could apply the same logic to justify the Pre-180 XB1 that the whole internet was up in arms over.
