Sony To Detail "Premium PSN" Plans At E3

ranulf writes "VG247 is reporting that Sony will reveal their plans for 'premium PSN' services next month at E3, even though they've long stated that one of the PS3's advantages over the 360 is that they offer PSN for free. In addition to the premium services, they intend to offer a free PSN game to subscribers each month (from a choice of 'two to four games'), which should make the premium PSN effectively free if you already bought a game every month. VG247's source claims 'nothing planned will impact the service’s current free aspects,' and that 'there’s nothing in the premium package which will gimp regular PSN users.'"

    Sounds good, especially if you get to pick the PSN title

    Sounds like a "book of the month" club to me. Just with games and no option to send games you don't want back.

    1) Other OS - gone
    2) Free online - about to go
    3) blu ray - more than likely going to die as a format before its time as DD takes over.

    So yeah what are the chances of a healthy price drop to go with it. Slim is my guess.

    the problem is the online multiplayer on psn is shit, i play online games a lot on pc but i've only ever played a few games of tekken here and there on ps3 cause it's just a pain in the butt. if it was pay to play i would guess that quite a few people would just stop playing online.
