I appreciate the effort, but I do not understand it, I think you're arguing against a point I am not making.
At no point have I said PS+ is a bad deal, the opposite.
What I have said, repeatedly and with good reason, is that Sony is not 'giving anything away.' Further more, if we did accept they were giving anything away, it would be nothing like the figure presented in the OP because:
- A miniscule number of people own all three PS+ consoles
- Thus far PS4 (where the majority of PS+ users reside) has received the worst games (certainly compared to the PS3)
- These games arrive long after launch in most instances, when they could alternatively have been obtained for well below RRP
- Their value is inherently miniscule to those who have no interest in playing any given game
- Many people already own the games worth playing
- We rent them, we're not given them
I haven't actually seen you disagree with any of the above, so I suspect we actually agree on all that, and you've mistaken me for someone saying that PS+ can never be worth it. I have it, paid 3 years in advance...

You said:
Does the fact that you got Bioshock Infinite (again, much later when you could have sourced it elsewhere for WELL below RRP) one month mean you're going to enjoy playing a couple of games in their 60's a few months later?
And I proved to you that PS Plus rarely sees games under 69 metacritic.
Thus far PS4 users have received worse games? Did you bother to read the 6 month metacritic rating of games I posted? PS4 users are receiving higher critically acclaimed games than the PS3 is, the problem is that you automatically see "indie" and think it's a bad game.
Many people already own the games worth playing? And where did you get this fact? Or are you now just starting to make things up simply because you cannot come up with actual facts.

I did say that, and you've clearly misunderstood the intent.
You do not play averages. Bioshock Infiite is excellent. It isnt going to mean you enjoy playing a lessor rating game a few months later. In other words, enjoying one great game (a long time after it released) doesn't mean you'll enjoy a lessor game later on.
Where have I ONCE said that indies are bad games?
As for the last part, I'd have taken that as a given. Are you suggesting that the majority of people who have PS+ - hardcore gamers - do not purchase popular games on a reasonably consistent basis? If that were the case, the industry as we know it wouldn't exist.

Plenty of the games given out on PS Plus were given out on the day they released, so how can you say to me now that people have already purchased those games? Not to mention the majority of the games given out on PS Plus are not big AAA games because as of now PS4 doesn't have very many of those. Majority of the games are ones that have little to no advertising so how do you expect me to believe that the average "hardcore" gamer has already purchased them?
Also you completely disgregard my post where I tell you that the games released on PS4 PS Plus are rated higher than the ones on PS3.
