Playstation Plus discussion thread - Part deux

But you got all those movies as well, remember?

That seemed to come and go. Announced then no word of any additions or did anyone here watch any films on it?

Powerwash Sim is great. Until you get to the big ones and they take upwards of 80 minutes! Then they have you unlocking more powerful washers and spray types and different types of soaps for different surfaces, and they all cost money so you end up just using water... then you realise the trophies like washing a statue using only the lowest nozzle, or washing exactly a certain % of it... I look forward to it all again!

The Tomb Raider dlc was great fun too, hopefully will be included. There's a FF one too. Lost on me.

I tried a few times but couldn’t get it set up

Forget about it. Heres the kind of stuff you're missing out on 😂

I found the app, it just bugged out on me too many times and I gave up. If the majority of options are paid then it’s not for me anyway

It's kinda sketchy alright!

Services come and go!

Remember getting a free digital copy with some DVD's and Blu-Rays?

All those services are dead now!

Unless it's a well established company, it can be hard to want to fork over for a permanent digital license.

It's why the Netflix model works so well, buys into our bias that it's not really ours to own and stuff comes and goes all the time and we don't feel like we've lost anything, but we have 😁

Also, so I'm on topic, the selection of Plus movies in Sony Core is totally shít! That's the best I can say about that 😆

Yeah, in the US a load of Discovery tv shows are being removed from the PlayStation Video service and will be completely inaccessible afterwards even if you purchased them.

There are also avatars to redeem as part of Season of Play

good place to start to see whats included: https://www.playstation.com/en-ie/ps-plus/#compare

Cloud Storage includes backup of all save game data. You can click on "See your available membership plans" for prices

Certain games have free online multiplayer without PS Plus. e.g. Fortnite, Rocket League, Apex Legends.

For a lot of games you do need it or you cant play with friends online like Minecraft.

Cheapest way for a years sub is usually waiting for the big sales (Black Friday). Ive seen discounts at the end of January also though.

Turkey used to be great for cheap subs. Sony raised Turkey prices a few months ago. Not worth it now.

My advice would be buy 1 month. See how much you all use it compared to GPU and then decide if you need a years sub.

It is, but I still lost over 60 hours of my life to it. And I see there's a Back to the Future dlc now so... all that was also on Xbox, so it's a fresh start on PS... I'm gonna waste a lot of time over Christmas. Note: there's hidden graffitti if you use the softest spray on some of the dirtiest sections.

I did the FF7 one last night. I both hated it by the time I ended it but also couldn't stop doing it.

I won't play it again, but I also can't deny I spent 5 hours more than I expected after turning it on

All these sim games are the same. Farming sim, Powerwash sim, Garage sim, PC Building sim, Car Mechanic sim, Truck sims... You don't know why you're spending hours on them, but you keep doing it. Not all for everyone. I had to uninstall Lawnmower sim twice to stop myself wasting time. Some of them are better. Having put a few hours into Powerwash sim again, I forgot about the little texts/stories you get while cleaning.

Totally agree, such a great game

Hmmm, seems they were off with their coordination between departments.

Zero posted the PS Stars 50 Points list in the other thread, which listed Stranger of Paradise as being a Plus game even though it wasn't announced or available.
