PS plus is $5 a month. Think about how much you pay for coffee a month and think $5 a month lets me play online and I might get a good free game here and there. I say it's not a bad deal at all
I hear ya.
Gaming is something being cheap is forever, and every game, controller and system has to be forged at certain prices forever.
Everything else in life from food, homes, cars, a pair of jeans, cellhpones, coffees and lattes can be increased in pricing and nobody cares.
But a game has to be $60 US, and consoles have this mystical $400 price barrier.
I remember a Honda Civic in Canada could be bought for $14,000. I bought one long time ago where it was $18,000 (mid model LX automatic). Checking their website now, an LX automatic is about $24,000. So in about 20 years or so, a Civic has gone up around $10,000. I'm sure the US has seen similar price increases in 20 years.
Yet a video game still has to be $60 US and a console no more than $400 or sales drop like a rock.
