PS Plus Members Received Nearly $900 Worth of Games in 2019

Eesh, quite a bit lower than last year and also less than Games with Gold. Still, there were a few decent games this year, although Nioh was probably the only one I played a lot.

Only if you want to play them, in reality I haven't played anything on Plus this year and I rarely even bother to add them to my library anymore.

For clarification, some of the games have been good, even great but generally speaking I already owned them.

Got my money's worth as usual. We got some great games with plus this year!

Personally I got my money’s worth.

The Last of Us Remastered
Nioh
Detroit Become Human
Batman: Arkham Knight
The Witness
Borderlands: The Handsome Collection

These are great games I didn’t own but have now played a good amount of (and completed Detroit and Last of Us and would rate those two games as both 10/10 must plays).

And whilst I wasn’t initially impressed with this months offering. I have actually fallen a little bit in love with Titanfall 2’s multiplayer.

And to see that community get fresh life and their reactions on Reddit to having 90,000+ players online at one time instead of just a thousand was heartwarming.

PS Plus can be improved and Sony must not be complacent. But I’ve personally had a great gaming year thanks in part to it.

This service retains its value for me-especially since I don’t remember the last time I didn’t buy it at a discount.

I kind of wish they would go back to offering an indie title now and again-I enjoyed it when Plus used to introduce me to a game I never thought of playing before. But that is a minor quibble. If the service remains similar for PS5 (not a given), I will continue to buy.

They should offer 2 aaa games and 2 indies .word up son

@Kienda Dude you have to play Titanfalls singleplayer.

It is just a really well done single play mode and is comparable if not better than even Doom (2016) SP

PS Plus has been on sale every year $39.99 in 2018 and $44.99 in 2019 for a whole year! Its well worth the small price for a 12 month membership each year.

I only sub on PS Plus to play a few online games. Not bothered about the free games given away. I would rather pay less for a basic service of just online play.

If I give 1000 euros worth of hamburgers to a vegetarian, I'm not doing him much of a favor, am I? Get my point?

@MrMetroid thanks, I will absolutely try out the single player. I haven’t touched it yet because I tried out multiplayer and now I’m level 27 and haven’t touched another game since.

I will definitely finish the single player before the New Year.

The only reason I have ps plus is for multiplayer. I just look at the "free games" as a bonus. That said, I thought this year was horrible. I never bothered with the PS3 or Vita games, so that didn't bother me. But the big games that were offered I pretty much already had. Downloaded 6 games on plus this year, played maybe 3 of them. Oh well... I really hope with the PS5 release, they change the model of PS plus a little bit.

@kyleforrester87 pretty much exactly this, I only have plus at the moment to play online with my stepson as I generally have any game that is half decent on the service. I thought it was much better when we were getting the likes of Rocket League and indie games that I may not even even heard of

Actually, as a brother in reddit said, it's more like 300 when you count all the games at their lowest sale price. So yeah, it's still good, but that is just a marketing number.

Merry Christmas y'all

I stopped a couple of years ago. Most of the games I would have wanted I already had and I added a PC to living room TV as a lot of friends were on PC/XBOX so without cross play just had little value. When I looked at what I had used of it and what it had cost it was a no brainier. Anyhow's Happy crimbo everyone

This most likely isn't quite correct. The number is probably based on the usual PS store price but not only do most games on the store stay near to or exactly the same as the price they launched at, but a lot of them spend most of their time popping up in sales at 50%+ off. Titanfall 2 is a great example because it seems to be in most PS store sale at like £5-10 but its usual price is probably 300-500% of that.

"Received" is a blatant lie. These games are rented, that is not the same thing. As soon as your subscription expires you lose access to these "gifts". Other than that all is well.

I forgot to buy an renewal on Black Friday for $39. Which sucks...

Now I'm going to get jacked up when it auto-renews for $59.

The sad part is I forgot last year too, so Plus costing me alot lately.

I used to get discounted subs off Amazon, but that's all gone now.

Getting a deal now is more tricky, they don't have any Xmas deals anymore.

Scrapped my year sub in June this year I bought a month last week so I could play some Doom online which was good but hard to get into games. Not renewing it once it's done though as I got Titanfall 2 on PC which I play a lot as well as Destiny 2 via Steam.

@kyleforrester87 I want too play online amd some nice discounts for the DLC. The biggest problem is i dont need the big titles ill buytuem anyway. Its difficult too please people triple A 😭 i own them, indies are garbage, GTA and the other massive titles wont be covered by €60. I think plus does fund the bigger titles at Sony and thats a price im happy too pay.

@carlos82 I totally agree with you im not waiting for a year too play the new titles.

I've only used plus to download wipeout and get access to a cloud save when I swapped a fat ps4 for a slim ps4. Still new to ps4 as I've mainly played on Xbox this gen and couldn't afford a ps4 until this year (which was pre owned but beggars can't be choosers).

Some amazing games this year!

Most I already had. Boooo. (the Witness, TLOU, Wipeout, Titanfall 2 etc etc)

However I got my money back on games I have played or will play in;

Horizon chase Turbo (£8)
Detroit Become Human (£20)
The Show 19 (£25)
Nioh (£15)
Borderlands collection(£10)
Modern Warfare remaster (£20)

The price in brackets is how much I would pay for each game, none of them were must have games at release however I'm interested in all 6 so PS Plus is value for me. But nothing compared to the previous years and as @kyleforrester87 says the offerings from earlier this gen were better for gamers like us. Good indies you probably skipped.
