Playstation Plus - Review

22.39.00


We are now official working together with the danish part of Sony (this won't change anything if you are a reader from outside Denmark) and to celebrate this we have made this review Playstation Plus and will in the future review Playstation games, too.

The Features

When you buy PS+ you get welcomed with an introduction video and it will also provide you with some
features. We made a list of the features you get when you buy Playstation Plus:
  • Game Collections
  • Exclusives
  • Discounts
  • Full Game Trials
  • Themes/Avatars
In Game Collections, you are able to see the free games that PS+ offers you.
In Exclusives, you can see the exclusives offers that is there for a limited time.
In Discounts, you can see all the special offers and discounts on games.
In Game Trials, you can try a big bunch of games for 1 hour.
In Themes & Avatars, you can get free themes and avatars for your PS3 account.

Game Collections & Exclusives

I love the idea that you get a collection of games, and are able to sort your games that you have bought and
got for free in the most simple way. At Exclusive you can see limited content like Themes and Avatars. Those will only be there for a short time. Another cool thing is that you can get beta / trials for the games.
Sony did a good job by making PS+ user able to play 10 different games every month.

Discounts & Themes/Avatars

In discounts you can get at least 10% off all the games in the Plus store, which is cool, but unfortunately are there "only" 40 games available in the store. For example; the new game Defiance with a discount on 20%.
At the Themes & Avatars you can get Themes for your Playstation menu. When you find a avatar or theme you like you can keep it forever.

Full Game Trials

With this option you can try out games by getting access to the trial. A trial is much similar to a demo, but
you get the full game but only for limited period on an hour. In a demo are you limited to for example the first mission.
The trial hour is really good, as it makes you able to decide if you really want the game. When the hour is over, you get the opportunity to buy the game directly at the store.

Additional stuff

With PS+ you can also get a lot of other discounts, some times on a Season Pass for a game, and they are also having big sales like the Declassified Sale that are currently running. There is also a little bonus if a new game comes out for the online PS+ shop, that may give you up to 30% discount.

Advantages/Disadvantage

Advantages

  • Great discounts in the shop
  • Game trials
  • Free games
  • Free themes & avatars

Disadvantages

  • 60 minutes trial - 120 minutes would be preffered
  • A bigger selection of games in the Game Collection

Final Comment

Overall PS+ is great, and gives many Playstation gamers a good discount and let them try out new games. I personally think its great, and got a lot of games that could be fun to try out. I have been trying most of the games in the game collection and i really enjoyed it, but I'm still not through all the trials.
