PSN: PlayStation Plus

[Demon_Skeith]

PlayStation Network is no longer totally free.

During Sony's E3 2010 press conference, the company announced PlayStation Plus, a new subscription-based service for its PlayStation Network platform. Sony promises all the current features available for free on PlayStation Network will remain free; however, these new features will come at a cost.

By subscribing, users will gain access to new features, early demos and betas, a selection of free minis and PlayStation Network games, and more. You will be able to own these for the duration of your subscription.

New content is expected to be added to PlayStation Plus every month.

A one-year subscription will run you $49.99, while a three-month subscription will cost $16.99. PlayStation Plus launches later this month.

So when it comes out, I get 3 months free? Either way, this is going to be awesome. I'm going to get the $49.99 deal.
