They won't even offer a yearly plan? This is awful... please Playstation, do not follow this model. It's $240 a year compared to the top tier psn plan at $160.
Sony slipped into the chat:
“We heard our name so we came running. We must keep up with our competition. Gamers proved they’ll pay anything, so to stay competitive, we will be increasing our prices in order to stay competitive with our offerings. Sure the publishers are raising their rates, and servers aren’t cheap, but we hope that with this new increase, our profitability margins will increase faster than our operating revenues. We think you’re gonna love it.”
Nooooo!
The best line I have actually heard multiple times whenever a change is made by my company is "we are changing so and so service to this to better align ourselves with industry standards." And guess what, those standards are always worse for us. Never once seen this where it's been a positive. I guess it's ok to do if everyone else does it!
LOL yep. And if you ever work in the traditional corporate office job, you’ll hear these great words mixed in:
- align
- synergize
- innovate
- compete
- streamline
- agile
I work the corporate game, so I use these words myself, but ooh boy it gets tiring. Thankfully I’m agile enough to synergize myself with these new standards, which are aligned best with our competitors.
