00:04Hello AXS, my name's Nathan Dytem and I'm here to tell you a little bit about PlayStation Plus on PlayStation
00:084.
00:09Since the E3 conference there has been loads of good news about PlayStation 4.
00:13It looks like this, it costs this, and it does this.
00:18Guess that's a good thing.
00:20But amid all the cheering, there was cause for even more cheering as it was announced that existing PS Plus
00:25memberships would carry over to PlayStation 4.
00:28Your PS Plus membership will carry over to PlayStation 4.
00:33Like that.
00:34Now if you don't know what PlayStation Plus is, well, it's amazing.
00:38A membership service providing PS3 and PS Vita owners with discount deals, early access to betas, online save and automatic
00:45patch download functionality,
00:47and, best of all, access to the incredible Instant Game Collection, which gives you a minimum of 10 top-rated
00:53games to play at no extra cost.
00:55So the news that Plus membership extends to PlayStation 4 is massive.
01:00It means PlayStation 4 owners will be getting even more games at the same price.
01:05Specifically, as of launch, a PS Plus edition of Drive Club and a to-be-announced digital title.
01:11It's been confirmed that this version of Drive Club comes with all of the game's social media features and connectivity.
01:16And it's been confirmed that the digital title will be switched once a month after launch to ensure a regular
01:22supply of new gaming.
01:24The other crucial thing about PS Plus on PlayStation 4 is that you'll need to be a member to play
01:28online multiplayer.
01:29The upside being that Sony is investing heavily in PlayStation Network to make all the advanced online functionality of PS4
01:36possible.
01:36Plus, there's plenty of functionality you won't need to be a member for, like cross-game chat, watching Netflix and
01:42other video services,
01:43automatic system software downloads or playing certain free-to-play games online, like DC Universe Online or the awesome PlanetSide
01:502.
01:51And besides, given the massive value offered by PlayStation Plus across PS Vita, PS3 and now PlayStation 4,
01:58you'd be a dangerous lunatic not to become a member anyway.
