excellent, would be interesting to see the take up. I'm thinking it'll end 50-50 myself though.

I'm really tempted by this for the free stuff and extra's. £40 a year is a bargain considering the stupid amount I spend on PSN as it is. Anything which will let me get discounts and have those wonderful Minis (they are mostly brilliant pieces of pocket-sized fun for my PSP and PS3) is good for me. £3.33 a month is a good deal I think.

More like 80-20 against, judging by the negative reaction so far in this thread.

Decent offering from what i can tell.

ROFL Gulf. I sometimes have to do the same. Add funds or buy something on PS Store. Head quickly to my computer to move the confirmation e-mail out of the inbox. Particularly that she tends to jump on to e-mail on her ipod quite frequently. The bank not so much as she only looks in there when the money well on the wall runs dry completely.

Again LOL.

There just isnt anything totally worth my while on the table yet.

Seriously, I have LBP and I have wipeout HD. I dont buy minis or PS1 games. I'm not all that interested in a choice of 2 per month full game downloads to play for an hour. I have quite a lot of PSN content. They might offer all the ones I have in the 1st year = pointless for me.

The only thing that remotely seems interesting is the silently patching games, which is handy for the infrequently played games I have,but since it only checks every 2nd day, then I would be manually updating the ones I do play anyway. FW downloads in the background too but then it wont install til you accept the T&Cs. Also this can be done away from ps3 on the computer anyway. As a test there I downloaded the 3.30FW @ 2.2MB/sec and took me all of about 2 mins to download.

I have a 24meg connection anyway so downloads arent all that slow.


EDIT: For someone new to PSN I think it would be an interesting proposition as they wont have built up a lot of PSN titles and this could be a good way of doing so.

I have a PS3 and XBOX 360, i can justify paying £40 a year for XBOX Live considering what you get for that money its actually worth it!

PSN+ on the other hand with its current lineup is NOT worth £40 a year! And in fact, isn't worth paying for at all!!
Interesting point Mr Rulz, im on a one man mission to get PS+ sold out and you come on being all negative!

We're getting FREE, yes FREE stuff. Do you know what pulling power the word FREE has? Not much on DS i must admit, but the wise few with buy into it.

The rest, they just don't have any sort of life to speak of.

I just hate the word free getting used (not just here) when in reality its not free, as you only get those things if you are a paid subscriber, which then contradicts it being free.

I voted yes. So you will see me on here banging on about playing demos before you commoners even see them on PSN, playing free games and discounted games that you pay full price for!

My PS3 and games will be getting updated while I'm at work, while the DS peasants wait until the latest FW downloads and installs before complaining it wasn't worth the way!

I get to complain first!

Get Real, Get PSN+

No I will not. There is nothing on that list that makes me want to subscribe. I don't play PSone games or minis because there is nothing there that interests me, I'm not interested in early access to demos and I don't care about themes or avatars either.

So therefore, it would be a waste of money for me. I'm fine as I am without a PSN+ subscription. I just worry that over time, they will gradually make new features 'PSN+ only" so that those of us who don't subscribe will be forced to subscribe in order to receive these new features.

What happens if you run out of space on your HDD, can you re-download them like you can purchased DLC?

With the automatic downloads, hoe does that work? I have 2 PS3's, one wireless in the bedroom & one in the livingroom through ethernet. Does the PS3 go into standby & starts downloading automatically if an update becomes available? Would I have to have played the game on both consoles for it to download the update on both? Can I use PSN+ on both consoles or is it going to be 2 seperate subscriptions?

Cheers
