Forums - Sony - Eurogamer: Aggressively interviews Sony

Eurogamer: With regard to PlayStation Plus giving subscribers discounts and access to things like Qore - is that a good deal? It feels a bit like you're saying, 'You can pay us to buy our products for slightly less and get a catalogue advertising them.'

Andrew House: No, I don't think that's a fair categorisation. Free game downloads, one PSN title, two Minis and one PSone classic every month; free premium avatars; dynamic themes; full-game trials, which was one of the things consumers told us they wanted most...

Eurogamer: What happens to those downloaded games if your subscription expires?

Andrew House: The games themselves will go away. They are valid for the life of the subscription.

Eurogamer: Do they self-destruct?

Andrew House: They're deactivated. They're reactivated if you reactivate your subscription.

Does this go for everything else downloaded, ie free themes, avatars ect?

What actually happened at Sony's E3? I missed it because of work.

  • 3D talk - Sly Collection announced - Sly Cooper 1-3 in HD and 3D
  • LittleBigPlanet 2 trailer and information - Release date November... 20th?
  • Gran Turismo 5 trailer - Release date November 2nd
  • Final fantasy XIV trailer - still ps3/pc - no date iirc
  • EA demoed Medal of Honor and Dead Space 2 - Announced ps3 exclusive special editions for both, with remastered Medal of Honor: Frontlines and Dead Space: Extraction being included on the disc with each respectively, like the Dante's Inferno Divine Edition
  • Sorcery revealed w/ demo - Harry Potter-esque Move game - Controls look great, but everything else... not so much
  • Heroes of Move announced - Move game featuring Jak, Ratchet, Sly, and their sidekicks

what an asshole of an interviewer sony is the priciest because they have technically the best products



I like Andrew House. It's a shame he doesn't get to speak as much as, say, Tretton. He never comes out with Reeves' underhanded comments, either, which is both good and bad.
