SotN is my favorite Castlevania game.

I love SFIII.  Last great SF, IMO.  Sadly, I'm no good at it. 

I picked up a few comics on Free Comic Book Day too.  I pick up a #0 copy of a Magi comic.  I still hadn't read it yet.

I have Netflix and Hulu Plus.  I have movies and television shows queued for over 5 years.  As long as the service is functional, so will the movies.  Some of them left and come back, but most of them stayed.  I can only assume the same for PS+.  Once the service is gone or you stop paying for it, then it's gone.  Digital Rentals.  The same as with Netflix and they are very successful.  

You may be paying the 50 bucks a year for the discounts, but that's not how Sony and other gamers promote the service.  How many times have you seen "Free games on PS+" in a news article or blog?  The service is sold more on the games than the discounts.  That's just the way it has become.  

My fear is that people are getting too comfortable with this service and we will begin to get most of our videogames this way.  Pay to play instead of pay & own to play.  Maybe I'm just paranoid, but there are many developers and publishers out there that don't want us to own our games anymore.  MS may have lost with XB1 for now, but their next console or maybe the console after that will be digital only, I'm afraid.

I hadn't seen that movie in forever.  I didn't like it then, I can only guess I wouldn't like it now.  Maybe I should watch it again to make sure.

I see what you're saying.  This is just my take on it.  The problem I have with Sony's PS+ "free" games is the word free.  It really annoys me.  The games are not free.  I'm  paying for the games because I'm paying for the service.  When the service is gone, so are "my" games.  We don't own them.  I watch a crap load of movies through Netflix and yet I hadn't seen one person say, "Look at all the free movies I own through Netflix!"  MS's games may be old, but I own them (as much as you can own something digital).  They are actually free and free saves me 5 bucks I can spend toward something else (preferably phyiscal). Laughing 

I just wish people would call PS+ "free" games what they really are....  Rentals.  Other than that, I have little problem with it.  I would rather have the free old games, myself.  Many of them I don't own yet.  I don't want MS to be too much like Sony.  What's the point in that. Cool

It's about time it happened.  Why pay for XBL to get Netflix, Youtube, and all those other services.  I still may get XBL just to get the free games.  If MS pulls what Sony does with "free" games on PS+, I don't want it.

I like Keaton's batman too.  But at the time, I wasn't sold.  I mean before Batman, I had only seen Keaton in Mr. Mom and Beetlejuice. Laughing 

I like of like Daredevil too. 

Microsoft has betrayed their fans again! Not a trolling blog.

The word "duh" comes to mind.  MS got rid of Kinect to lower the price of the XB1.  Who didn't see this coming?  This is not a "don't trust Microsoft" issue.  Every person that makes an early purchase on any console is worse off than the people that wait, IMO.  Example: the people that bought a PS3 for $600 (and more) compared to the people waiting and getting a PS3 for less than $300.  All early purchasing means is that you get to play on the console before most people.  That's really what you are paying the extra hundreds of dollars for.  It's not like the those first few games are the greatest or even that much better than the games still releasing on the previous gen consoles.
