Making threads is a recent thing here--I think we made a couple in December.  Sometimes they're just for Gold.  Sometimes, they're for everybody.  Just like PSN.

I hope it gets better. By the time I get an Xb1 I would like a good service so I could hopefully get some exclusives I don't have to buy. Currently though PS+ destroys GOG by a huge margin. It's like a tank fighting a prius.

They're giving out games from the 90s? That's awesome, the golden era of games.

LOL good one

I can imagine that all of the generosity with PS+ on the PS3 was just to get people used to paying for PS+. I hope I'm wrong, but I have a feeling that later in the PS4's life we won't be getting the same AAA quality free games. Just indie stuff. Indie stuff is good, but it's no Uncharted 3 (which I just downloaded) or Metro Last Light (which I'll download next month).

those are just for gold

but yeah you have some for everybody.... but most great discounts are for gold only

and like I said even before free game with/for? gold my 30-40 bucks 12 month sub of gold was largely covered by the discounts and the reward points I accumulated over the years.... I even get cash back every time I spend 10 bucks now just for having a gamerscore over 35k and will get even more cash back once over 75k

don't get me wrong PS+ is great... but I never got XBL to get free stuff in the first place yet I cover its cost with discounts and now free games.... and like I said looking at the list of games on PS+ ... 90% of the games I would have been interested in I already had purchased by the time they got to PS+... to me it should be used for less famous games that got overshadowed during their launch by big games... or at least a one big title and the rest with smaller release... but that's because I game a lot or I buy a lot of games now that's just me of course.... but I hardly see the benefit of AAA games on PS+ or GfG if you are a hardcore gamer.... you more than likely have those games already by the time they are released for free...

When was the last time you went back and played a really old game that you've beaten? Everyone barks out about "renting" games but seriously, after beating Uncharted 1, for example, has anyone decided 5 years later that they want to play it again? I know when I was done with that game...I just sold it because I'd rather have money than let it sit on my shelf, since I wasn't playing it anymore.

Yea, it's better to "own" the game, but let's be practical here. Everybody that's played a game, beaten it over and over and over again, isn't gonna want the game 4-5 years from now, so to trivialize PS+ because you're just "renting" the game seems kinda silly

And let's just say you do want to play a really old game, but your subscription is up. In 4-5 years, imagine what other games are gonna be free on PS+, which would justify resubscribing.....then you get your old game back.

Thats because Bioshock Infinite, DmC, Enslaved, Smart As, Dyad, Don't Starve and a few of the others in addition to Brothers for just Jan '14 (if you consider PS3, PSV, and PS4) are just not good.

Meanwhile on XBL Gold, I think they offering Perfect Dark Zero for free ??? Or something else from those first couple of years of X360.

Microsoft owes their community so much more for all the nickel and diming.

So a service that doesn't exist right now is better than one that gives players free games every month? Ok. Not sure how that works out.
