I actually don't know if I still have a subscription or not. I bought a bunch of years in the first year of PS4. Probably already expired.

isnt that your profile you linked in your vgaccount? It still has plus

Well, I tried to check but apparently it's impossible to check that status without turning on my PS4. So I did that but I cannot see my account details because I have to download an update first for some reason. And that is gonna take over an hour thanks to Sony's incredible servers that they paid for with PS Plus money.

God, I love consoles.

edit: 40 minutes later it managed to download almost 160MB of the 340MB. Only 50min to go now :)

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

MS and Sony should have the option to just pay online same price as Nintendo

Cut them down by three quarters and maybe that would be feasible.

Best comment I have read until now. But I guess you are right since PS+/PSN are one of Sony's most profitable subdivisions.

That makes no sense - PS+ is not a division or subdivision.

Very well the inclusion of paid online (PS+ on PS4 basically) is very profitable for Sony. It might be the best business idea Sony stole in decades. It's not very consumer friendly but since they buy plenty of PS4's and subscribe a plenty they don't seem to mind all that much to pay for inferior online compared to pc.

Microsoft and sony should make a barebones online system like Nintendo. Not everyone wants to pay $60 to play online.

As much as I find it silly how you have to pay for oline at all (and one of the reasons why I'm a PC gamer), I also find it silly how some people react to a 10 euro increase per year. It's not per month, it's per year. It's 10 beers, or 5 depending on where u live, or one pizza, or one visit to a hairdresser PER FREAKING YEAR

Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
