BREAKING: Sony Finally Decides to Charge You Extra for the Pleasure of Not Playing Their Games

Listen up, fellow wallets with thumbs. Sony just looked at the current economy, looked at your shrinking paycheck, and said, “You know what? You’re not suffering enough.”

In a move that surprises absolutely no one, Sony has announced a massive price hike for PlayStation Plus across all tiers. Essential? Up. Extra? Lol, get rekt. Premium? They’re now charging extra for the privilege of streaming old PS3 games that still run like they’re on dial-up.

AITA for thinking this is just a tax on people who want to play Ghost of Tsushima without buying it again? Probably. But here’s the real kicker: they’re doing this right after they raised the price of the PS5, which you still can’t buy without selling a kidney on the black market. Talk about a power move.

TL;DR: Sony saw your backlog of unplayed games and decided to charge you more for the privilege of adding to it. Now you can pay $160 a year to watch a loading screen of Bloodborne.

The kicker? They also announced “improvements” to the service, which probably means they’ll add one more PS1 classic nobody asked for (looking at you, Syphon Filter) and call it a day.

Sony: “We hear you. We just don’t care.”

Me: laughs in Game Pass
