Sony’s upcoming PlayStation VR headset may end up winning the virtual-reality market at least for a while, since it’s cheaper than competitors and millions of people already own a PlayStation 4.
Sony kicks off PS Plus' 15th anniversary by chatting with Game File about the past, present and future of its gaming subscription service: Talking price, catalogue tweaks and where the PS3 games are.
Glad, I’m about to downgrade when they raise the price. For me, I don’t really access much or care about the games they have in the library and if I do, it’d be cheaper to just buy them over time rather than stick to some expensive subscription model.
When you're new to the service you've got an avalanche of games to play. After you catch up, I agree, it's not worth it beyond the Essential tier for me.
That being said, the Essential tier is the best deal in console gaming imo, based on the monthly games you get to keep.
Yeah same will be downgrading $214 aud is insane and we don't even get the streaming capabilities in Australia which they said would make the top level subscription cheaper.
If i was to just buy the games I actually play that come to the service id be far better off.
Ill keep the essential tier to retain the games ive collected since the ps3 and for mp but I'm not convinced of the premium tiers value any more
Extra is probably the best value for money right now, Premium doesn't have anything special enough to justify paying the additional imo.
*unless you have a Portal & you catch Premium on discount during Days of Play or Black Friday.
Yea, I really do wish they'd up their effort on Premium titles, but allowing a large catalog of titles that can stream to your Portal without even having to use your PS5 is pretty awesome. We travel about 2 hours to stay with my inlaws from time to time, so it's been pretty killer to only need to take my Portal for that!
Nice choice. I agree!
Jeanne D'Arc was my favorite PS+ catalog title from last year & I Platinumed it!
cloud streaming to the portal, without using the ps5, is the selling point of premium to me.

Looking to release some of that anger? Here's the 7 most violent VR games you can play on your headset today!
Lol, maybe I'm becoming an old fart, but excessive violence in VR seems to bother me more than in flat games. Feels more visceral when you're looking a person in the eyes before mutilating them.
By no means am I trying to be a prude and saying these games shouldn't exist. I just play them more sparingly, need more breaks. I need some beautiful, refreshing & relaxing VR experiences too to balance them out so I don't feel so heavy.
Does the PSVR headset work on PC? Do the Rift and Vive work on PS4? No? Then they aren't competing. It's irrelevant if the PSVR sells more or less than the Rift and Vive. Those that want high end VR on their PCs will get the Vive or the Rift. Those that want VR on their PS4 will get the PSVR headset.
I have a feeling psvr will be like when kinect was first released. A bunch of people will buy it on pure hype alone
Cheaper price, that's it!
I will be laughing once everyone sees that PSVR is as powerful as Samsung Gear VR. Face it, until the PS4 Neo releases, VR on consoles will not flourish. VR will grow and get better on PC and PC alone maybe smartphone.
Not so sure about it because the ps4 isn't powerful enough for VR. Until i proove be wrong i think there will be a lot of disappointment with the psvr on ps4.....with NEO is another thing.
