Very excited to learn more about their online service—and the new titles, of course!
So are we. I don’t play online much anyway but my brother and I have opted for the family annual membership, it’s about €35 euros and it worked out cheaper to do it that way than with monthly payments on two separate accounts.
Oh yeah, that’s smart! 35 is actually a really solid deal, I may end up getting a few friends to opt in for that instead of doing the individual plan.
It would certainly save a bundle between you. You could even use the savings towards buying more games.
Haha absolutely! Now you’re talking.
