How do they justify this?

    Cancel it. Enough people do that and they’ll pivot so quickly it’ll border on miraculous.

    Sadly, enough people also don’t care and they’re the ones dragging us down.

    “Play has no limits”… just like pricing.

    considering AUD is close to CAD…. I couldn’t see paying 180$/year for psn+

    holy fuck 15$/month for what? access to multiplayer on a console on top of ISP monthly fees, and maybe a free game from time to time. 🤦

    It’s crazy how console gamers are fine double paying to use their internet

  5. UnemployedMeatBag

    Console price increase, game price increase, subscription price increase… seems like gaming headed towards rich people and no longer an escape from daily life anymore.

    How?

    Because people keep paying it.

    Everytime Sony increases the price the gaming community as a whole goes “I’m not paying that!” they raise it, people bitch online for a month or so, and then type their debit card information in for next month.

    Principles are great, but Mike’s jumping on black ops at 6 and we never get to play.

    I have the same email and also in AUD, but for Plus Extra – new price there is $187.95 AUD for anyone interested

    I don’t get why the fuck Microsoft/ Sony ask for fucking money to access online services

    Don’t give me that it costs to maintain the server no it doesn’t cost that much. Valve does this and they have never charged for online services

  9. I have both pc and ps5, it’s still boggles my mind that I have to pay to play online on ps5. And didn’t they increased the price last year as well?

    Not to mention steam have sales every single day, 365 days. Its crazy! If only the price of gpu weren’t so high people would’ve flocked to pc.

    I’ve been on Sony most of my life, mostly because I could never afford a PC. Next generation I’ll switch to a new PC.

    Cancel your subscription, it’s the only way to hurt them, posting on Reddit won’t change a thing.

  12. Gentaro

    Imagine paying to be allowed to play online…

  13. methiasm

    Cancelled the heck out of it. Im not even going to resub if they give me a discount.

  14. MRflibbertygibbets

    I just got that email too. Cancelled my subscription

  15. Gekke_Ur_3657

    Sony be like: lets spread those tarrifs over all the countries we sell in. That way it can stay cheap in the USA. And thats why we pirate Sony games

  16. stinkybumbum

    Well this will definitely be my last year. Shit monthly games and nothing else. Sony really are starting to lose it

  17. AenarionsTrueHeir

    It’s insane, literally I’d prefer a PS Plus membership that is just online play with others for far cheaper because I never use any of the games they hand out and these prices are getting crazy

  18. LambentCookie

    $130 dollars a year just to be allowed to play your games

    Why not just get a PC at this point.

  19. gcr1897

    Only thing that doesn’t increase these days are our earnings.

  20. Kummakivi

    I canceled this shit when they bumped the price 33% a while back.
    You don’t even get the day one games like Game Pass, it’s a joke subscription for fools.
    Is there a price history for PS Plus in AUD?

  21. Electric-Mountain

    Multiplayer is free on PC, and 95 percent of the PS exclusives are on it now too.

  22. WonderfullyKiwi

    Wait. I remember when it was $69.99 CAD for a whole year of PS+ when I had my PS4… What the fuck happened lol. Thank God I switched to PC a long time ago and haven’t looked back.

  23. LordSparks

    So cancel it and show them how you feel

  24. Historical-Cicada-29

    Glad i gave up on Sony when they gave up on everything they made (Sony Xperia Z original, PSP Vita and portable).

    Sony are shit.

    I’ve also worked at repair agents and retailers, they don’t have any good customer service or redeming qualities.

    Yet people keep buying The Last Of Us, super HD remaster of a remaster with ray tracing and hair physics….ohhh!

  25. Dontevenwannacomment

    Holy shit. You guys pay 200 dollars a year to plug your console to the Internet? That’s insane. How does Playstation have anyone that is willing to do this?

    Vote with your wallet. And actually do it.
