Price hikes are everywhere these days, so this shouldn’t be a surprise, but it’s still disappointing. All we wanted was to play games at a fair price, yet the cost keeps going up. when a full year of PlayStation Plus was just $60 in the U.S. back in 2020? You got a solid mix of new and classic games – those were the days. That said, with game prices rising (mark my words, $100 per title is coming), a full year of PS Plus still offers decent value.
