PlayStation Plus Packs Over $88 Value in First Month Alone

[DirtyDMan]

If you have been wondering if PlayStation Plus is worth the extra $50 per year, you’ll be happy to know that in the first month of the service is offering a value of well over $50 itself. Not to mention some really cool features and deals.

PlayStation Plus may cost $49.99 for a year, but it will definitely be worth its price tag if Sony can keep offering up excellent content like this first month’s smorgasbord of goodies. This month’s offering alone racks up over $88 in value when you add up all of the free or discounted content.

Of course that’s not all, there’s also a new Automatic Downloading feature added to the XMB which allows you to update your firmware, or install game patches even if you aren’t in front of your PS3.

Being a PlayStation Plus subscriber also gets you a nice little “Plus” golden d-pad icon next to your PSN profile and on your friends list.

I think I'm going to get this... Look at all the goodies...

Well this could be a ploy off a bunch at first to get you subbed for the year and then not offer much else the rest of the year
