they increase price in Norway by 12%. why? they increased price for PS+ like one or two years ago.

XtaZ1802d ago (Edited 1802d ago )

Sony keeps fucking us because most Norwegians are stupid enough to accept the abuse and keep paying. I'm Norwegian myself but I permanently ditched my PS+ sub the second they increased the price back in early 2018 while at the same time announcing the upcoming two-thirds butchering of the amount of games you would get with PS+.

RosweeSon1802d ago

It’s not just yourselves other countries listed but price increases do suck without proper improvements or extra benefits... could just get some at old prices if quick enough tho that’s what I did before they bumped prices couple of years ago and still good for another year or2 until next Gen.

Has been 6months since my ps+ expired and I'm not getting it anytime soon.
Boycott is what gamers should do if the price increase has no valid explanation

TekoIie1802d ago

Because you don't stop paying. You're basically telling them that you're okay with it when you continue to just pay out the fee each time after an increase.

Xavi4K1802d ago

They have to pay for Microsoft Azure servers you know...so lets just take it from Norway players base!!

Khlydo1802d ago

Let's not forget that they also removed ps3 and ps vita games too, way to go $ony.

My one year PS plus is ending on Days of Play, since I bought it on last DOP. Anyway I wanted to say I disabled auto-renew because I don't want Sony to renew my subscription at the full price. I will do it manually. Hope that Days of Play discount is good as last year's. Oh yeah, and this price increase sucks couse they removed 4 montly games.

curious... if a game leaves PS+, does it make it unplayable if you have already claimed it before it leaves? I know on the XB side, games leaving Gamepass are no longer playable. You need to pay for them to be able to continue playing after you installed them from GP.

CrimsonWing697h ago

The 3 monthly “free” games you keep as long as you have PS+ subscription. The PS+ library is like Netflix. They rotate stuff out and replace them with other titles.

MrNinosan5h ago

Yes, PS+ Extra/Premium games are unplayable after the leave the service, just like GamePass and Netflix.
PS+ Essentials games are available as long as you have an active PS+ account.

Wonder if Horizon ZD leaving gives credit to those remake rumours

Sigh. If true…another remake that’s not Bloodborne.

SimpleDad6h ago

Probably yes cause of a remake.

Skuletor5h ago

I still remember them giving that one away for free, regardless of if you were subscribed to Plus or not

ApocalypseShadow3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

They did. It was during the pandemic and the "play at home" initiative.

Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition. Sony gave away a lot of games just to push gamers to stay home and not get infected by COVID.

Eonjay4h ago

I think you're right.
There is a separate Bloodborne rumor by the remake is allegedly scheduled for next gen.

Kingrizzy901h ago

Yes cause of the remake good thing I got the plat
And is bloodborn really that good? I never played it due to being Incarcerated 8½ years but I read the comics. It's pretty dark

If there was one PC version that should have existed it’s Dreams

I’m super glad they will be going back to something more traditional gaming wise.

Cacabunga7h ago

I’m sure they’ll find something creative to implement like Tearaway on vita. What a gem 💎 that thing was!!!

Abear216h ago

My dream was DreamsVR and creating landscapes, characters, and sculptures using that amazing toolbox in vr, that would have been something imo.

Amplitude4h ago

It did but it came out as an update LONG after the game was essentially dead

P_Bomb4h ago

Dreams PC was the dream. Woulda given the game a much needed boost. Here’s hoping they follow it up well.

phoenixwing4h ago

If sony had any sense they'd be making a pc version pronto

mkis0072h ago

They probably ran into the same problem they did with the potential of last of us factions....the support needed was just too much to consider expanding to more platforms for a smallish studio.

Abnor_Mal3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

I use to say this when the game was first releasing, many kept saying it would not be possible, something about the toolsets.

I said this was one game that needed to be on as many platforms as possible, including PC and Xbox just like how Minecraft is everywhere.

Goodguy011h ago

Creation tools just don't work on console very well. It's definitely more suited for PC, and it's very odd Sony decided not to port it over. Good MM is working on an actual game instead.

Elden Ring Killed Gaming For Me & It's About To Do It Again

Saad from eXputer: "Utilizing its myriad strengths and masterful design, Elden Ring ruined gaming for me in a way I'll always be thankful for."

GhostScholar10h ago

It sounds like you’re just an eldenring fan and not so much a fan of games by and large. Which theres nothing wrong with.

Crows9038m ago

Elden ring ruined from software for me....maybe.

I hope their next game isn't open world too...
