I'm pretty happy with the games given away with PS plus, I'm not too bothered with triple A titles. It's only £40 a year afterall.

I would be happier about the fee to play online gaming if games actually ran on dedicated servers rather than using our own connections.
Some games do, some don't and MS got away with charging for online for 14 years where only a handful of games ran on dedicated servers and most 360 owners swore by it.

If a multiplatform game was running either p2p or client/server on PS3 then it was exactly the same on the 360. If a multiplatform game runs on dedicated servers on the X1, it will be the same on the PS4.

The LIVE fee was one of the factors in my switch from Xbox to Playstation when looking at PS3 / 360. I didn't own the PS2 and really liked my Xbox 1 but I didn't like the idea of online play been hidden away behind a paywall. Sadly 360 owners defended the fee and claimed that paying for something made it better.

Murdered: Soul Suspect has disappeared from my library, I can't remember if this was given away with PSN+ or was on discount.

I suspect it was the latter, if that was the case could that explain why it's been removed from my library? My PSN+ expired a couple of months back.

I also recently change console, could that have any to do with its disappearance ?

I've been on the Store and it's showing 34.99 and not Download like I already own it. Very confused as to what's happened to it.

Ok it definitely wasn't a PS+ game so rule that out.

If you bought it with a PS+ (or any) discount then it shouldn't disappear from your library. Once you buy a game, it's yours, and doesn't require a PS+ sub to keep playing.

Changing console shouldn't delete the game from your library either, as the game is tied to your account, and I assume you're logged into your new console with the same account that was on your previous console.

All I can think of is maybe you bought the game with a different account. Did you have a US account or a friends account on your old console ?

I did have an American account on the other PS4 and I can't say for certain that it wasn't bought through that, so maybe you've solved the mystery. Can't remember the details of that account to find out for sure.

Thanks for pointing that out to me, it explains things if that's what's happened. Set my mind at rest having some explanation.

Played a bit of Gauntlet which was fun and challenging and King's Story which played to me as a less-annoying Dragon's Lair (remember that on the PC?) when that game in the arcades seems like something from the future. SSX is fun with an annoying presentation around the actual boarding.

Not too bad a month on PS+.

Must remember to actually use my PS3 and download SSX & Blood Dragon... I keep forgetting they're there, my PS3 is basically only used as a DVD & CD player by my daughters & wife...

I was thinking the same after I got my PS4 last month, I was hoping I'd carry on with all the backlog, but it's just gathering dust...

So, over the Xmas hols (when the kids get a Wii-U also connected to the main telly), I think I'll move the PS3 into the bedroom. I will probably get a lot of chance to use it more, when the living room is out of action. Also the PS3 has the Sky TV app so I'll be effectively adding Sky into the bedroom which hasn't got it currently. Sorted!

I've not been asked to either. Was it on your PS4 or an email that asked you?

On a side note. Did anyone ever get those certificate things for being a PS+ member since day 1? I haven't yet. Not overly fussed but just curious if anyone got theirs.

Not yet. I received this email last Thursday

We’re sorry for the delay
Unfortunately we’ve had to push back the delivery of your PlayStation®Plus personalised 5 year anniversary print. We want to make sure they’re perfect so production has been slightly delayed.

We’re sorry for the delay and we will keep you updated if anything changes. Thanks again for five brilliant years, from everyone at PlayStation Plus.

Well I got an email a few days ago asking me to change my Sony password but I ignored it.

Then last night I went to sign in on my PS4 and it said it needed to be changed. I said ok and the PS4 told me it would send an email. It did, I went to change it and it was asking for my date of birth and stuff so I quit out of it, came here to ask if it had happened to anyone else.

But it seems it didn't. It's probably OK.

Sounds dodgy.

Unplug everything and burn down the house, just in case

It's not actually my house. I'm just renting. After burning it down I think I might have lost my security deposit
