$90 is way too much as the only paid service available. They should sell GK and PS+ subs individually, with bundled versions for better value on offer if you want both.

PS+ = $50
GK etc. = $50
Bundle = $80-90

edit: changed prices


 i just saw you changed the prices, this make sense . especially for those people who already paid for psn+, they can just pay another 50 to get the extra stuffs

100 USD/y - no problem.

Sony made me not to buy game any more. PS+ freebies are so good (if you hadn't bought these titles) and frustrating (when you all ready had this game for a full price)

It wouldn't be all the PS3/PS2/PS1 libraries. It will be the ones that Sony can get on the service. The reason why is copyright issues, which is the same for NIntnendo's VC. Sometimes you don't know who owns the publishing rights in certin areas any more, some companies don't exist, and when they do there are bank who want to be paid a big flat sum so a company can have rights to the publishing. I would only expect around 10% of each console's library. A good example would be Darksiders Sony can't just put up the two titles and call it a day. The bank handling THQ's holdings would need to be paid, so I would not expect any of THQ's titles to be on the service.

PS2 and PS2 we alredy have in PSN (not all of course)... just PS3 will be in Gaikai.

At the start we will se just some PS3 game but in the end almost all games (some not because the copyright you said or region restriction like some games in PSN not go to Europe) will be into the service.

And I expect PC games too.

the fuck? 89$ a year is WAY to much!

wut? US$7,5/month is way too much?


yes.

those who have money to pay US$400 on a console, have US$7,5/month to pay for free PS4 games each month and some free PS1/PS2/PS3 games each month too... All that whimper you guys are doing is ridiculous.

There may be an option for PS+ on its own too.

I was concerned Sony would charge to play online, as it is it remains pretty similar for me (don't pay for plus) so I'm OK with this.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

Payment (annual cost of about $ 89.)

- Playstation Plus (included with these services previously have) enhanced new proposals, users PS4

- Access to Gaikai for cloud-gaming with the option to play for free to list some of the titles in a month, while others pay

- Share photos and / or videos directly to YouTube

- More space for saved games in the cloud

$89 is not so much.

If this is true Microsoft has succeeded in getting Sony to use more American capitalist tactics in gaming. FUCK! I hope this isn't true.

At least we can still play online for free.
