The new PlayStation Plus has finally launched and will be available in the US soon but it looks like Sony is already being a little cheap and weird about its new service.

No DLC, forcing customers to pay off old discounts, and a complicated tier system has gotten the new PlayStation Plus subscription service off to a rocky start. All the details and more in today’s Roundup!

In other news; Raven staffers form a historic union, EA tells employees to keep quiet about abortion, Xbox made a big mistake, and three PlayStation franchises are coming to TV.

This week’s 5-Second Review overestimates how into football vampires living in Boston would be and the Coming Soon sections ushers in Diablo Immortal.

Thanks for watching everyone and have a great weekend.
