Alright guys, so I purchased a 3-month card for the PSN Plus service. As you know, this is a paid service that Sony has for their PS3 system. Since I already have the expense of XB Live, I never subscribed to Plus. Also because PSN is free to play online. So I'm a Plus member now. As of now, for the month of June, Plus members have access to download 12 FREE games to their PS3 system. Yes, that's 12 games. This is something you might consider if you're on a budget on games and if you're interested in playing other games. Some of these games are not just scrub games, they were top games at the time of their release. You also get discounts on DLCs if you do alot of DLCs. I know I wont play every single game that I download, but I like the fact that I have access to them. Think of it like NetFlix but for games. But like any subscribing service, you only have access to those downloaded games when you are a current Plus member. If you cancel, the games expire. If you become a member again, those games become active again. Still iffy on what I'm saying. Here's a link for all the info if you'd like to read up on it: us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-plus/

Well so far, the advantage of having the service is to get the games they offer for free. You do get 150MB of cloud space included. I guess this is great if you have more than one PS3 systems in different rooms. I use the cloud service on the XB because I have two systems, one up stairs and one downstairs.
The cloud service on the PS3 would not be useful for me since I only have one PS3 system.
The DLC discounts are great, but I dont own that many PS3 games that would make me want to buy any DLCs from the PSN Store.
Once Sony integrates the PS Store with the Vita handheld, I think I'll use the features a lot more.

Currently, these are the games being offered for free for download: - Virtual Fight: Final Showdown
- inFamous 2
- Little Big Planet 2
- Rachet and Clank: All4One
- Just Cause 2
- Saints Row 2
- Lara Croft: Guardian of Light
- Choplifter HD
- Zombie Apocolypse

They only offered the amount of games above because of E3. Usually there's only about 2-3 games a month that you can download.
