It can be a dark old world. The nights are drawing like a funereal veil and rarely a news bulletin passes without talk of bailouts, soaring unemployment and double-dip recessions. It’s almost enough to make you padlock your wallet and hibernate for the winter.
Yet we have our video games to take the chill off those long nights, but in times when purse strings are tight, can people afford to keep up with the latest hardware and software releases? The counter argument is that, for their investment, games provide their value in umpteen hours of entertainment for less than a night down the pub (and are more likely to improve hand-eye co-ordination). And, with a kaleidoscope of price ranges and payment models, even the thriftiest thrill-seeker can find their happy place.
This week’s debate questions is:
Does gaming give you good value for money?
To ease those financial pressures, I have 15 voucher codes for a three month PlayStation Plus subscription, offering a plethora of free games, exclusive features and discounts in PlayStation Store. Already a Plus subscriber? The three months will automatically be added to your existing subscription when you redeem the voucher code.
As always, our independent judge will select her 15 favourite comments and the codes will be sent out via private message over at http://community.eu.playstation.com.
Talk is cheap, but is gaming?
