While there are similarities between the two – even some aspects in which one seems better than the other, what I believe will ultimately influence your opinion is your taste in games and what system you already own. Personally, comparing the two would be like comparing apples to oranges. If you’re interested in either of the services, you’re likely wondering which is better. The respective subscription services of the two publishing giants, Microsoft Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, have drawn many comparisons to each other, which is only appropriate, given how they sort of fulfill the same need – an affordable alternative to play games without needing to own them. This innovation in game distribution has recently emerged as another key segment for the industry’s top names to battle in, particularly Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation. Now, however, you have more options than ever, including Netflix-for-games-types of services that give you access to a regularly growing library for a monthly subscription fee. For the longest time, if you wanted to play a game, you either had to buy it yourself or borrow a copy from a friend.
