I was just about to buy Bloodborne so glad I saw that it's coming to PS+ before parting with money.

I feel sorry for those who only own a PS3/Vita. Having to shell out £50 on a service just to keep access to the games they acquired without ever getting anything new in return is a real ripoff. Sony really need to make a new tier for the PS3/Vita owners, even just £20 a year to retain access to the games would be worthwhile. If people sign up for the new tier, they should just release all previous PS3/Vita Plus games to those who subscribe.

If you look at December 2012 ish (last year of PS3 only) to October 2014 ish (first year of PS4) for PS+, there were some magnificent games in there - you got at least one AAA game every month for PS3. I'd be willing to bet that after they remove the PS3/Vita stuff, it will be at least one AAA game.
As for GWG, it's a great service, but if you had PS+ back in the PS3 days you've already had most of the Xbox BC stuff years ago.
I would be amazed if there's that many people who only own a PS3/Vita and are paying for PS+ - I would guess most PS3s have been passed to the kids because mum/dad upgraded to a PS4 (so the old games will still work). Or maybe they're used as a bluray player. By the time this comes in next gen will be over 5 years old, surely anyone that actually cares about gaming will have moved on by then?

I get really annoyed if I have to keep replaying the same sections over and over again, I don't have much time to game so irritates me when I make no progress.
The Vita has a very strong audience in Japan and still have games being released throughout this year.

Just re-read the email from Sony and it actually says 2019, I thought it was this month that we would get the last lot of games for PS3 and Vita.

Why would anyone have ps plus and a ps3? I dont believe you need it for online gaming on that console.

I have PS4, PS3 and a Vita. I play them all although it's 90% PS4. Saying that I've just the other day got the platinum on the Mega drive collection PS3 after finally buying it and got the platinum on Fallout 3 on PS3 last summer after playing it years ago on PC.
I've got a 750gb HDD in the PS3 and have 90-something PS plus games installed.

Is anyone else having trouble getting online on their PS4? I connect to my router and the Internet fine but Psn sign in fails. I assume it is down ?
No problems here, however i sometimes get days where it takes a few cycles of turning the PS4 off and on to get it to sign in

About 6 million Vitas, which is about the same as PS4 sales there. Hard to believe there's no crossover.
I'm sure there is some number of people that pay for ps plus and only have a PS3/Vita, but I really doubt it's a big number.
Yer - it's been there for just under a week.
Most main retailers - Tesco, Amazon are selling at the same price. However some "wallet funds" via CDKeys and then buying direct I believe works out the best deal.
I think I've got Plus until October 2020 now - must stop adding special offer deals!
