PlayStation Plus – Is It a Rip-off?

1. It is. We pay money to play online games, but Sony’s servers are trash.

2. I only want to buy ps plus to play multiplayer

3. I play multiplayer like few hours per month. Having to subscribe even for 3 months for something I would hardly use is very bad deal for me. Moreover, the so called "free games" are trash, and why should i subscribe for them anyway, when all I want is multiplayer access? Sony need weekly and even daily deals (with fair prices for the amount of time i am going to use them).

4. I have fortten about this now it brings back some frustration haven't played my ps4 for months have found other interest it's too bad because I did enjoy playing playstation

5. I find it utter bullshit seeing as they are releashing so many multiplayer focused games like destiny, and for honor. So I can but these games for 60, or hell if I pre-orded them 80 bucks, then have to pay sony another 60 bucks a years to fully play the fucking game I already bought..FUCK THIS its another way of gateing off content for money its just as bad as locking content on the disk already behind dlc.

6. Ugh just bought mw remastered to play for old time sakes and now these greedy cunts want 20 pounds off me to play offline ? Fucking ram that

7. if this is the new trend of video games I'm all set I'll stick to my retro games which are just as fun and theres no ps+ shit

8. Sigh I wish you people knew that THERE IS PS NOW

9. yes

10. They are Subscription rentals , you do not own the games in any way . as soon as your subscription ends they are taken away from you.
    Also paying to play online ?! This is absurb .
    I study mechatronic engineering , currently on my bachelor , and the claims where their infastracture costs a lot to maintain is outter bullshit.
    For those that are not ware Sony and Microsoft take a big share from every game sold on their platform and now adays because most gamers are retarted litle brats that know nothing , justiffy the console makers even making a profit on a platform that is supposed to surve like your cable provider box you connect to the TV.
    Anyone trully interested in getting grate games for close to nothing should get a pc instead.
    Here are specs for a descent pc that can render any current game at 4k:
    pentium g4560
    cheapest motherboard on the socket you can get from a reputable reseller like gigabyte or asus or msi (if you want you can choose one with m2 slots and type-c connectors , also for the hardcore using usb3.1 instead of usb 3 or 2 on amd's am4 platform reduces the input latency because the 3.1 channels are directly conncted to the cpu and pass through no bridge )
    cheapest WD green 1tb hdd you can find ( whatch out for the rpms , you want 7200)
    a cheap case that has atleast 3 spaces for 120mm fans , this being one ine the back or 2 1 in the front and 1 on the top
    8gb of ram on one stick (the lose in fps is really minor , leave the other slot from the 2 empty for future expansions) ( corsair gskill and so on , avoid brands like teamgroup and other brands you cant find a lot of info on the internet about )
    evga , xfx or superflowr(although they ar expensive) , corsair psu at around 500watt should be enough 80+ power saving rating atleast (avoid thermaltake , they heavilly underperform)
    only thing you need now is a gpu:
    gtx 1050 = bellow 400 budget performs better than the stock ps4 (more like 1080p here not 4k)(check below for 4k)
    rx 580 8gb = performs simillar to the xbox scorpio or what ever stupid name they gave it after the e3 launch (no the shit you hear where consoles perform better for the equivelant horsepower to the pcs is not true in this generation . it was true a generation ago where architectures like the cell on ps3 allowed basicly magic to happen compared to the architectures found on computer graphics cards but now adays with current advanced architectures and low level apis on better directx versions that allow for lower level access to the hardware you have the same performance on a pc and on a console at the same power . BUT it is actually possible to make a game run better on a console BUT the developer would need to spend A LOT OF MONEY on low level optimisation , often or not assembly work )
    you now have a pc that costs around 400 to 500 euro and it performs simmilar to the new xbox but is a full fledged pc that you cana ctually update on the future.
    you might pay more compared to a regular ps4 but if you just want it for the games its still a bargain because most games for the pc go for 40 to 50 euros when they launch and maybe sometimes less on sites like g2a and kinguin or what its called . You pay for no online (duh) and the steam sales are incredible and if you want value for money gaming go sub to the humblemonthly where they actually give good games.
    remember buy a ps4 at 250 euros and after 4 years of use you would have spent 450 on it because of the payed online.

11. yeah pretty much

12. I have to pay to play online? FORCED TO PAY TO PLAY ONLINE?? Fuck sake Sony..U greedy bitches i am really pissed off

13. lol, I'm I the only one who knows PS don't give out free games? once your subscription runs out PS plus games are no longer available. basically you're renting shit games they throw at you….not worth it

14. or just go master race. pay nothing for online services, get a controller if you absolutely have to, praise gaben and live a happy life!

15. it's not worth it, but you need it. recently bought a ps4 and was pissed off that I had to buy PSN plus to play online. I play on PC too, and I normally pay nothing to pay online. the extra added "benefits" for PSN plus are completely bs.

16. yes any online subscription that you are forced to buy to just play half the game that you bought is a rip off
    where was this argument last gen when XBL offered NOTHING for gold instead 360 fanboys damage controlled it. if they spoke up last gen, online play on ALL platforms may be free but they didn't. No one had a problem with it. its WAY too late to complain about now.
    as for the games i think there fine I put many hours in PS+ games.
    in the video you pointed out 7 PSN games Vs. 8 XBL games (I think that you thought they were AAA titles even tho one on the Xbox was indie but whatever) one more noticeable game wow big difference, i feel like you were reaching a bit. also Quanity is a fact Quality is a opinion so only consumer can say.
    some errors in the video XBL $60 PSN $50
    regardless Great Video

17. I know right where to share this video. Thanks bro.
