PlayStation Plus

PlayStation Plus has been announced by the technology giant Sony on the event of E3 conference yesterday i.e. June 15, 2010. It looks like big guns are being taking out by Sony towards its rivals with this announcement which is actually PlayStation Network’s premium pay-version. It is to lunch to compete with Xbox Live of one of their rivals Microsoft.

It has further been announced by Sony that there is no change in PSN as it will be available for free users and for pay users as well, just like it was previously available. But a few good things will really be enjoyed by those users who are willing to pay USD $18 in terms of a three month’s fee or an annual fee of USD $49 for this PlayStation Plus.

Several premium contents, themes, avatars, access to demos and updates about the games that change every month will be enjoyed by the users of PlayStation Plus, said by CEO and President of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, Jack Tretton, during the E3 conference while talking to media. This new service by Sony will start working from the coming week and will work for users of PlayStation Network only.

It has also been announced during E3 conference that first three months of this new online service “PlayStation Plus” launched by Sony will be absolutely free of cost for its PlayStation Network users. Best thing in this news is that voice messages could also be send through this upcoming online service by the user to other online users. That is really an interesting thing as it will make easy to send a quick invitation to your online friends to play game through “PlayStation Plus”.
