I look at it another way, for one, they still have Live to beat, and 2, now that they will get more money from subs, they'll be able to give more money to devs to offer their games for free. It sounds naive but when Sony says they'll use the money to make their services better I'm kind of inclined to believe it ONLY because they've walked the walk, they have been trying to provide a different service based on value.
If they were the top dog by a million miles I'm not sure they'd go as hardcore on it for sure, but they got a long ways to go for that. Basically what I'm saying is Sony isn't in a position to take their foot off the pedal.

Kinda hoping that DiveKick is part of Plus. But I figure that it won't be. :/
They've been catching up with some Euro Plus updates, so we could see RDR.

Wouldn't be surprised if Divekick was a Plus freebie for EU in August tbh =p

August has already been leaked. No Divekick.
...but we only know of 4 games for EU plus in august right? Usually there are 5 games, what's the 5th?

Probably since the European division always seems to get the games that the US wants. :/

Disabling 'password at checkout' should do the trick (Account Management -> Transaction Management)
Yes, they stay in your download queue.

Oh, no worries. How are you enjoying the game so far? It's really brilliant. Especially after you beat it that first time and realize you've only scratched the surface ;D

Anyone know where I could find a trial key or any discounted games with it?

What region are you in, and have you ever used a trial before? Even the welcome back counts as a used trial if you are in the EU.

I'm sure this has been detailed before but if I use a free 30 day PS+ subscription, cancel on the 29th day and switch to a 90/365 subscription, I'm not going to lose anything due to the cancellation am I?
Don't worry, you won't lose anything.
And you can even cancel the auto-renew right after redeeming the free suscription code. You aren't cancelling the service, only the auto-renew.

Thanks.
Really blown away by PS+, I'm kicking myself for not getting a PS3 sooner and missing out on so many great games through the service.

Does anyone know if ign or some other website is giving out free trials of PS+? I remember they did something like that a couple months back.

You can get a month free trial via PSHome right now. Tomorrow is the last day to activate it though so you gotta be quick.
I'm going to go against the grain here but after subscribing to EU PS Plus for the last 6 months I've cancelled my subscription now.
PS Plus games tend to fall into one of the following categories for me:
1. Games I already own.
2. Games I couldn't give a shit about playing.
3. Games too big for my 40GB HDD.
4. Vita games.
Over the last 6 months the only games I got out of it were Quantum Conundrum and Thomas Was Alone.
PS Plus is fantastic for people who for some reason don't buy highly acclaimed AAA games within 12 months of launch, which I tend to do. Most of the time if I'm interested in playing a game I will have already bought it before it appears on PS Plus.
A lot of PS Plus games are genres I don't care about, such as beat-'em-ups. If I've passed on a game it's usually because I've deemed it not worthy of my time so it going 'free' isn't going to change that.
I wanted to get Vanquish, Mass Effect 3 and Hitman Absolution but they are far, far too large for my 40GB HDD and I feel it's too late in the gen to upgrade now.
Also I've got to say PS Plus was better when they gave you four PS3 games a month, but since extending it to Vita it tends to be just two PS3 games and also two Vita games, which is great for Vita owners of which I am not one.
Finally, I don't like the fact that it's essentially a rental service. When you one day unsubscribe to PS Plus all you are left with is your rapidly fading memories and a lighter wallet. I like to own products. I've never rented or sold a game in my life, I still have a bookshelf full of all my PS1 and PS2 games. People hated the idea that one day the Xbox One DRM servers could be turned off and they would lose access to their games but PS Plus is the same.

Except you still have the option of buying and owning games. It's not like the Xbox One DRM at all. The PS+ 'rental' model acts as a completely optional alternative method of playing a selection of games. Most use it for games they were never likely to purchase in the first place, so there isn't really a conflict there.
Of course plus isn't worth it if you buy all the games you want at or around launch.
The 40gb issue could easily be fixed by upgrading the hdd as opposed to the whole ps3
I wonder if Sony will adjust how PS+ works now that Xbone will be giving away free games with XBL... REAL free games, that don't expire.
Does it really make a big difference rather the game expires or not now that PS+ is required for online play, pretty much guaranteeing most PS4 owners will pony up? Just let us keep the games!

PS+ isn't the same, because you don't own the games. When you cancel Netflix, you don't have access to your Netflix instant library, nor should you.

Well, if we want to really compare both services, maybe we should tackle the games value.

Missed these posts from 2 pages back. Shadow of Memories is one my favourites. Such a great game.
Really wish there were more like it.
Yeah, this is basically it. We get the games as part of the subscription, if anything the bigger problem is how I can't buy them if I redeemed the free version until the subscription lapses, so if there's any amazing sales and I don't want to depend on Plus I'm screwed.
With XB1... well, it's probably part of why Onlive failed to really take off, because how many people REALLY want to buy a single player game that requires constant online access to play? Though Onlive had the additional negatives of how it's ONLY a streaming copy and you can't get a local copy at all, so if the lag turns out to be unacceptable you're screwed. There's potential there, but it's why it had to be hybridized with another service, much like Sony seems to plan with Gaikai and PS3 BC and maybe PS gaming on other devices period.

Just noticed Uncharted 3 got split into 2 optional donwloads, one with 3D movies other when 2D movies. It's now only 10/12GB.
Really doubt Sony has anything they feel needs to change. The 'free' Xbox games are nowhere near the level of PS+. The free games are only until the launch of the xbone (might have been the end of the year, not totally sure on that one), they haven't said a word about free xbone games where Sony has, and the games for live gold are incredibly old. This is all coming from someone that has been a 360 owner first and foremost for the whole generation.

Plus freebies I want include:
Tales of Graces f
Hakuoki 2
Atelier Totori Vita
Terraria
Thats what I heard since we didn't get it on Friday, yeah.
First Monday of the new month, so tomorrow.
You need the 4GB multiplayer, a ~10GB file and then either 2D or 3D movies, adding another 10GB.

When should the EU update be?
Also wanted to ask, when I download BF3 from PS+ will I need to buy the online pass to play online or will that be included?

Lol, that would be funny. But no, no pass is needed for the digital version of the game.
This is something I've always thought about. I mean my Plus is subbed through 2016 at this point.. So it's really an odd concern.. But yeah if I see a great game deal for under $10 and I already have it through Plus.. I can't grab it just in case I ever decide to ditch Plus.

July 3:
Battlefield 3 (replaces The Cave)
Payday: The Heist (replaces The Lord of the Rings: War in the North
Saints Row the Third (replaces Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
+
Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus (replaces Rayman Origins)
Unit 13 (replaces Coconut Dodge Revitalised)
Games for August will be announced in the last week of July.
There's two answers to this question:
1. You always get the online pass.
2. EA doesn't use online passes anymore. Since a few weeks, every single EA online pass is a free download.

Have they removed the requirement for online passes from old games that included them? I was not aware this was the case, simply that no new games would use them.
