Hey guys! We have bought in a whole bunch of the 365 day vouchers at the older price for you to use so don't stress too much They can be ordered here

But even at the new price that's only like R 70 monthly for free games and their online service, which if you think about it isn't really that much...

Thanks, Tea!

Definitely going to be buying another year or two this weekend at the lower price. The email from Sony last night was quite upsetting, but understandable considering how much you get with PS+.

Hey Tea,

I have 12 months left on my sub. If I buy now and only load this in Sept next year will the voucher still be valid?

it adds to your current subscription, so if you have 4 month left now and you load 12 you then have the 16 months on your profile apparently so you would have 24

Wish I could buy one of these now.

Awesome will buy one when I come through over the weekend

PS+ is still really good value for money. So at the end of the day. No matter how much we complain it's not going to change.best is just to bed over and accept it

This really sucks...I can see a couple of things could come from this. The South African console market (with regards to PlayStation) can as IkariX stated "Just bend over and accept it", they can migrate completely to Xbox which is still cheaper (at the moment), or migrate to the American PSN which has a better selection of games, cheaper even if you don't have PS Plus, and it loads faster (The last point is just what I have personally experienced when compared to the SA PSN)...

How do you do that though? And what's the legality of it?

A US Account? You simply need to create a fake US profile, Google fake name generator, and then create an account. You won't have a credit card, but you can load up on vouchers. Legally it isn't a crime unless you use a fake or stolen credit card. But it violates the EULA so Sony can shut you down at any stage and you lose all your purchases etc. I've had one for 4 or so years with no issues so Sony doesn't really care as they are getting paid no matter what. They might care once these price increases cause big enough differentials that they start to lose in different territories, but for now they allow us to price arbitrage so make hay

Nice marketing by Sony in reality. Spend more and save more. You still spend all that cash though Don't get me wrong I will probably load up, have added things to the wishlist already, like most people, but this sort of deal does get you to spend more than you would've if the discount were limited.

I suppose if you can't control yourself then it's good for Sony. If I'm not going to play it why buy it. I'd rather buy it when I want to play it.

I will be getting Resident Evil HD from the US store, waiting for this to take effect, with the discount on the game I'll be able to get Millia and I-No color sets for Guilty Gear. No extra spending for me, but I do get a little bonus out of the savings.

As for the SA store nothing I want that I will play now anyway.
