PSN+ membership - has it paid off for you ?

[Olli]

The title says it all.

Is it worth paying ?

Do you seriously get something worth the money you pay ?

please comment !

To me it was mainly for the ease of mind that all my save games auto saves to PSN so i wont loose any of it should i get the YLOD, but there are a lot of other benefits: discounted games and sometimes free games plus cool avatars and wallpapers and much more :)

Edit: you get 20% off Only PSN DLC as well! :D

I've received quite a few free games, beta invites, early access, discounts, etc from PSN+. Not to mention the Qore subscription (Mmm, Audrey Cleo :wub:)

Overall I've enjoyed it, and like Linken said, the online save cloud is a life saver.

[Alextation]

Not really, the discounted items and the free ps+ games I bought still didn't add up to the $50 I spent on the damn feature. Good thing I didn't waste money on the 2 year one. How much is that one, $100 for a year?

[UberToyotaX]

I have not bought it, and I'm happy with my decision after talking to a couple friends. Part of it is personal preference.

[l3it3r]

yes. I have two PS3s. The saves are automatically uploaded and I can download them on my other one.

The free games are plentiful too.

It's paid off for me personally. The Qore subscribtion alone is 25 bucks a year, plus the free games that I have actually downloaded and played, yes it's paid off for me. Why just recently I downloaded Costume Quest a game I never would have downloaded or paid for and I love it, great game, normally 14.99 I got it for free. So yeah I am in the black when it comes to this and have the cloud to save games plus autodownloads are great. Not having to wait for patches to download before I play a game is great.

Costume quest is free? Sweet! Need to go get that, read a good review on it.

[Bluedemon]

I hope you got it cause I think they brought it down last night, not sure, but if they haven't yet get it soon cause it's coming down quick.

[Sylon04]

I was looking for it this morning and couldn't find it.

[l3it3r]

Downloading a few games right now, one of which is Far Cry 2! Free!

[Bluedemon]

So it was announced today that in April Need For Speed Shift 2 will be free for PSN+ members. I never got around to getting this game, but heard great things about it, and I loved the first one, in fact I actually got my first platinum trophy from that game. So I am super stoked, just wanted you all to know. :)

[Sylon04]

I didn't like that game. The controls were all fucked up.

[Sephy]

Shift 2 isn't even worth being free.

[97lowazznissan]

I haven't got it yet but when PSN went down and they gave us all a month of it free I really liked it.. My son has it still and has downloaded all kinds of free stuff which I think is sweet but I just haven't wanted to spend the money on it but I guess soon I'll break down and just try the 3 months worth..

[Bluedemon]

Shift 2 isn't even worth being free.

Damn just how bad was this game? I thought the first one was pretty good, how did they mess it up so badly? Hell I'll have to download it now just to see how bad it is, lol

[Sylon04]

Shift was a great game, Shift 2 wasn't. The handling of the cars is just horrible. Thats what did it for me. Unless they pushed a massive patch since I ditched the game.

Agreed. I really enjoyed the first Shift. Even platinumed it. Shift 2 was just awful. I got pretty far since the slower cars were easier to handle. But when you get to the higher powered cars the game is nearly unplayable. Completely frustrating.
