Are you wondering about how to get PlayStation Plus? It is a fairly new service, just announced at Electronics Entertainment Expo of 2010, that is confusing many. If you are wondering about how you can get it and what the benefits of being a PlayStation Plus member are, then read on. 

PlayStation Plus is a subscription service that can be purchased via the PlayStation Store. PlayStation Plus will cost $17.99 per 3 months and $49.99 per year. You are able to use PlayStation Network Cards to add credit to your virtual wallet, and then purchase your subscription using your virtual currency. That is how you get your PlayStation Plus subscription, but what can you do with it and what are its benefits?

The PlayStation Plus exclusive service provides the subscriber with demo's at an earlier time, full game trials, premium avatars and themes, PlayStation Store discounts and more. These services will all be available to you, on top of automatic game update downloads, for convenience. Sony will pick four games (one PS one classic, Two PlayStation Mini's, and one PSN game) every month that will be given to you to download for free. This selection changes every month. Same principle with the PlayStation Store discounts. Every month, there will be certain discounts, and these discounts will change month by month. 

PlayStation Plus is being released next week, and multiple surprises will be in store for the first PlayStation Plus subscribers. So be sure, you should read my PlayStation Plus guide in order to be able to reap the benefits of this exclusive membership.
