One good thing if you purchase this and ditch the PS is you don't have to pay for a membership, which is insane that console players still put up with that. A quick search (without actually checking if it's correct) is that it's $160 per year, on top of what you're paying for your internet. The Steam Machine would pay for itself in just a few years, even with no other advantages.
I don’t have the Playstation plus anymore but I never payed above 70$ and got a lot of free games with it.
Still, it wasn’t worth it to me as I mostly play single player games except some racing sims..
I have to be pedantic, but I always hate it when people say "free" for something they paid for. It's included in the price, not free.
I guess you’re right and you could also say that I didn’t really own these games since I can’t play them anymore because I don’t have PSPlus anymore.
