Typically the games that are on PS+ are over a year old, maybe several years old, or didn't sell great. Most importantly, not every game makes its way to PS+. Services like Netflix and Spotify bring money to the movie and music industry people wouldn't have given otherwise. I feel a services like PS+ does the same. |
Not entirely true. Bioshock Infinite is several months old. "Brothers" even less so.
Considering losses and profits: If a dev spends a X amount of money to develop Bioshock and instead of 60$ retail gets a fraction of a 50$ yearly subscription, then we can consider that he has loss.
If he then spends Y<<X amount of money to develop a clone of Candy Crush and gets paid accordingly, then we can consider that the latter is more profitable to him. Let alone easier.
