Ive not playing solely because of time.

Sony Playstation said:
Starting May 20, PlayStation Plus prices for new customers will increase in select regions. Due to ongoing market conditions, prices will start at $10.99 USD / €9.99 EUR / £7.99 GBP for 1-month subscriptions and $27.99 USD / €27.99 EUR / £21.99 GBP for 3-month subscriptions.

This price change does not apply to current subscribers (except in Turkey and India) unless the existing subscription changes or lapses.

What could these "ongoing market conditions" be other than Concord being a $800 million loss, Marathon being a $765 million loss, Soros not making anywhere near what they were expecting to make?

Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft have all raised prices for the same reason, stupid tariffs that have accomplished nothing.

Oh, no, no, no, they have accomplished exactly the intended goal(s).

It's just that the stated goals were ***.

Remember when we were gonna have all those beautiful factory jobs back and the swamp mutants were going to be building iPhones in American factories.

free to play games do not require ps+ to play online, but the rest usually do. Sony has definitely taken a bunch of Ls lately, including an 800million impairment to Bungie because of Marathon. not quite the same thing as Concord.

I think this and the hardware price increase is all in anticipation of GTA6, honestly. If you recall that Bellular video, GTA5 online pulls in 1million daily, and a very big portion of those players are on PS5.

even Bank of America is chirping now, telling us why GTA6 being 80 dollars would be "good for the game industry"

Annual gaming revenue is double that of movies + music combined, ***is no longer our hobby. These people are foaming at the mouth for what they think GTA6 will do, and probably will.

So annoying, theres literally nothing that has not gone up. They are all doing it because everyone else is doing it, regardless of whatever excuses they come up with.

Game pass has taken a big hit, first they raised prices, then they lowered prices but removed future Call of Duty titles, which had basically become the biggest draw of the service. Why pay all that money for Activision if you arent going to have COD on Game pass. Why pay for Game Pass at all now.

So dumb, the failed tariffs affect their bottom line, so they raise prices on all of their services to make up for the loss. Not rocket science. Quite easy, actually.

Got him triple posting, he's rattled. The only other person here dumb enough to think "prices will start at $10.99 USD / €9.99 EUR / £7.99 GBP for 1-month subscriptions and $27.99 USD / €27.99 EUR / £21.99 GBP for 3-month subscriptions" was related to the playstation hardware would be Eiryl.

But of course, he's doubling and tripling down doing whatever to save face because god forbid Viciouss be called out. Oops, he did get called out when he said that "Xbox raised price" in response to a PS plus subscription increase.

OLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
