I thought I'd get plenty value out of extra, but I really haven't this past year. Most of what's on there I had already played, and new releases don't really release on it. I still buy PS5 games to play them. Might just go on a month to month basis from now on.
Jesus Christ a 33-35% increase? That’s pretty fucking steep.
Holy crap. Glad I got the disc Playstation so I can go back to buying used games instead of relying on Extra.
It was barely worth the price before with the quality of games they've given away going down dramatically. Now they want you to pay more and they plan on giving you the crappy saints row.
The price in Yen for premium is $95 US. Anyone know why?
I’ve noticed Yen prices for online services are lower in general. Like YouTube premium is considerably lower. Probably because of the yen being weak af atm
Hopefully they still do good deals around Black Friday. Because £100 a year for Extra is a bit much.
I caught this earlier a bought an additional year of Premium at the current price (£99). It’s really frustrating that they’re doing this. I’m assuming they’ve seen Microsoft increase their price to little subscriber loss and wanted some of that.
I can kind of justify a $135/yr cost of extra as right now there are a handful of games on the service I have interest in that could easily sum up beyond that amount, but many of them were there when I subscribed last year and I never actually got around to them.
I’m going to drop from a year of Premium to Extra, and if I don’t play more than a couple games from the service in the next year, I’ll just drop to essential.
Glad I'm getting BG3 because these kind of look meh this month.
