@eddie429 I bought my PSNow sub for $49 on CDKeys and the PSPlus on some holiday sale; that's not necessarily the point. It wouldn't change a thing I said if the nut for both services was $90 a year for both. There are people who pay the PSN $60 prices all day long not aware of third party discount online services, which aren't foolproof by the way. There's a 25% off sale on both services on PSN as we speak. It's what @zupertramp is trying to say: this is a question of value, and to put both games of a PSPlus month out already available on PSNow is just not valuable to the consumer and will definitely make me and I'm sure others rethink renewing both simultaneously ever again.
I have had PSPlus since 2012 and have learned to take the good with the bad, but this is very frustrating. I bought a years sub of PSNow last month after talking with a friend about how the PS4 game downloads makes it pretty much a Tier 2 PSPlus (i.e. pay $60 a year for 2 games a month or $120 for multiple games). I don't see them as free games because as long as I am a paying member of both services I have a license for the games just like if I "bought" them on PSN. If I renew every year the game stays on my HDD the same way "buying" (securing the license) does.
Since digital games aren't really owned by the consumer, the least Sony could do is provide some interesting titles NOT available on both services! Unreal...
I understood the decision to remove PS3 & Vita games from PSPlus, but I don't understand why they keep offering these lame games as of late. I always get into each console generation late; that way I don't get any early adoption woes & when I do jump in there's more games to choose from...plus I always have a backlog.
When I got my first PS3 in 2012 the PSPlus program was incredible. Every month there were games by big companies I'd never played and cool indie games to discover. I just made the jump to the PS4 finally in March and have been really disappointed. I've thought for a long time that Sony should run a poll every month with 5 of 6 titles and let the gamers choose what they'd prefer. It wouldn't be difficult. As it sits now, we pay $50-60 dollars for online play & a small amount of cloud storage for saves. It's felt like a rip for a long time now...
