Sony recently announced that they will be offering three free months with every one-year PS Plus subscriptions until early March this year. PlayStation Plus is perhaps the best deal available in gaming right now; not only do you get a smattering of free full games for your PS3 and PS Vita, you also get discounts of up to 75% on games, DLC, themes, and avatars.

Sony has said that PlayStation Plus subscribers save up to $2,472 because of the amount of free stuff and discounts they get. And since most PS3’s available have sufficient hard drive space for downloadable games, it makes sense to a paying member. Oh and if you’re already a PS Plus subscriber, fear not as you can stack your subscriptions; paying for another year will add to your current standing in addition to the three free months you’ll receive for free.

I’ve been a member for almost three months now and can honestly say that the free games you get per month are so worth it. I’ve been able to play Gravity Rush, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, and Jet Set Radio on my PS Vita; Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, inFamous 2, and Darksiders for my PS3 and have bought numerous games off the PlayStation Store for up to 75% off. (The average amount that I’ve paid for games have been $2.50 to $5.00)

You would have to be crazy to pay for an online service and not get free games like PlayStation owners do with PlayStation Plus.
