Re: PS Plus Essential, Extra, Premium Price Increases Announced by Sony

Does anyone want to tell Sony that they are a little early for April Fools Day?

The only real benefit I got, was cloud storage. Being able to redownload save data that I had deleted x months ago was handy. I rarely took advantage of the free games, as most of the time, I already had them, or weren't interested in the lineup. And I don't play online that much anymore. When my Essential subscription expires in December, I had been considering not renewing it. Thank you, Sony, you just made my decision all the more easier.

Re: PS Plus Not Required for Online Multiplayer on PS5, PS4 This Weekend

@jrt87 I thought that external drives could now be used on PS5. If not, then I guess that is Sony's way to drive more people to sub for cloud storage.

My PS+ Essential sub is due to expire this month, and I am questioning why I would need to renew it. I already no longer play multiplayer games, and with a couple of external storage devices at hand, I don't even need the cloud storage.

Also, Haunting Ground is one of my favourite (PS2) games.

Re: Next Assassin's Creed Game Delayed, Is Reportedly 'Far Behind Schedule'

I have had a love/hate relationship with Assassins Creed. I liked AC1, in spite of its limitations. AC 2, Brotherhood and Revelations, though superior to AC1 on a technical level, just didn’t appeal to me as much. I lost interest in the series during AC3. I didn’t play Black Flag until some time after its release, but it quickly became my favourite. I didn’t like Rogue at the time, but in the years since, I have grown to appreciate it. By the time that I got around to Unity, it was in a playable condition. Syndicate, like Black Flag, quickly became one of my favourite AC games. Origins, I never finished. I didn’t like the forced gear score, and I guess I lost interest. I haven’t played Odyssey or Valhalla.
