+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted July 25, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted July 25, 2010 Word is coming in from a live feed at Newsarama that Sony Online Entertainment has just dropped a bomb on the potential MMO gaming world of PS3. Apparently if you are a member of PlayStation Plus Newsarama is reporting that you will not be paying any monthly fee for the beat-em-up massive online multi-player title DC Universe Online which was nominated for a Best in Show award by DualShockers at E3 2010 (see here). Could it be that Sony Online Entertainment will be making this a standard practice for their MMO titles as suggested by our previous editorial on the matter? Or are they merely referencing a 30-day free trial? This is currently unconfirmed news and you are going to want to reserve getting your hopes completely up just yet, but believe that we will be following up on this hot rumor as soon as possible to bring the gaming public some clarification and details to this offering, if it is indeed the real deal. As always, keep it locked to DualShockers for all of your late-breaking, unbiased gaming news and reviews.

Tech Star Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 It would be a smart move by Sony to do this. By giving PSN+ this incentive it will drive more people to buy the service and in return they get free stuff and free online play for DC Online.

Hedon Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Now psn+ would be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soniqstylz Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Couple this with free Agency play, and I might be sold. Maybe. Or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HilariousNinja Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Clever move. Also didn't know the Agency would have a pay monthly kind of deal... Expected it to be like MAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodrigo Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 This is going to be a strong point for the PS3. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minifig Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 IF DC Universe is a success, and that's a pretty big IF, that's a pretty huge draw to PSN+. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted July 26, 2010 Veteran Share Posted July 26, 2010 Well, I have been waiting for a reason to get +, and I did plan on renting DC Universe, so this may now be the reason. Maybe. Maybe not. But incentives like this would make it much more attractive and worth it. So far I have not joined as I have either have everything being offered or have no use for it. I basically plan on seeing what is released each month, and as soon as it is a month I am into the content being offered, I will probably join.

SimplySchizo Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 That's the sweetest teaser i've seen in a while... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerzdawg Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 That's the sweetest teaser i've seen in a while... +1 I have little to no interest in the "comic book games" but that trailer alone has def got me interested. Not sure how that storyline would play out in an online world though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
