Game spending for PSN subscribers

[Railan]

Hello!

I'm quite fascinated by the effect the accumulation of games under a PSN sub has on our consumer behaviour. I opened another thread about PSN influence on PS4 sales, but this is a different matter.

I, for example, almost never buy games on release date, and don't have time to play everything I buy. This way, PSN sub is almost the only thing I'd pay if I were playing a Sony console right now, apart from a game here and there.

What about you guys? Do you pay your annual fee and also buy whatever game you want? Do you feel that you should wait and see if it appears on PSN, so as not to "waste" money? Does the game offer seem fair for the price?

Cheers, and thanks in advance for paying attention to this

I never used to buy games on release since before PS3 but I if its a game I really want,I will now. Not retail no,I can usually get them much cheaper online.
As for downloadable versions,defo not,not if I have a choice anyway.
I still much prefer hard copies for many reasons,I know digital only is coming in the future but for now we can still uses discs and this suits me better.
I can get them cheaper,I can borrow,loan,trade and sell them too.

I think that if retailers had 'shop spots' on PSN store with diff prices that may be better,cause we could still try and get best prices,but its still digital only though.
As it is now we can only get digital versions through Sony PSN store,no choice.You would think by cutting out the middle man,as well as boxes and discs it would cheaper,but new releases cost quite a bit more than I get get them as hard copies online.
