Maybe. It was somewhat unclear, I think.

I thought they were talking about just upgrading PSN Plus, but others thought it meant free online play was going by the wayside.

I think it's confirmed PS+ is now required for online play. Which is a bummer, but apparently it costs less than $5 per month, so it's not a big sacrifice.

All I know is that Sony hit it out of the park with this one. Just stood there and said "we're not going to be the XBone!" Keeping things the way they should be. Own your games and go online when and if you want to.

Plus that price point is great. Aren't going to make the mistake of overpricing at the start this time.

I'm completely fine with this. I might not be subscribed to it now, but PS+ has some nice features.

Free game per month is quite interesting to me. Probably not AAA blockbuster titles, but still.

Ah, the thorn in the bed of roses. Paid online.

I probably would have been a lot more pissed at it had I not already started subscribing to PS+ before this. With a Vita and PS3 in tow, it is surprising how much more tolerable this becomes thanks to all the freebies.

Man... Seriously, Sony really took a Leap of Faith with all this move and that really rewarded them with something so big. Even though, we have to pay for multiplayer feature, it's still worth shitload of

Question!

Can you still play online for free on the PS4 or is it only accessible to certain other features "ie multiplayer". I don't mind paying $5 a month, but want to make sure if it's to pay for either single, multiplayer, or both?

The way it sounded you need Plus to access online multiplayer, IGC etc. You don't need it if you are playing single player games. If you are Plus member you will cover every feature of the PS4.

I hope they clarify it.

Still I really want to know how they are going to justify paid online on PS4, yet free on PS3 and Vita. I really hope it was a mistake or something.

It really seems odd to pay for a such basic feature Plus free games with it.
I think you'll be able to freely play online, but limited to some features.

Just basic online play and chat as free and throw the rest behind PS+ and everyone will be fine. Those that want the features will get Plus and those that don't want them can still play online.

Also what about all the F2P games? Sony is courting them left and right. Are they the exception? It's really stupid that you have to pay to play F2P games.

That's going a little far with issue. What about internet connection? You have to pay for that to get that F2P game in the first place, and to play it. So if we're headed in the direction you're headed, then no F2P game is truly free to play then, is it?

Looking at this and then the price of Vita vs PS4 is T__T

I'd say Uncharted 3 is not something you can say "not AAA" .
And XCOM.

Have never signed for PS+, but it's because I didn't pay much attention to the free games they have. Now I think I'm going to join the ship.
