On the subscription side of things.
If you want to play online, which you should, playing other humans is by far the best aspect of games, then a ps plus sub is a most.
Prety much worth it as it’ll cost ye 50 quid or less and you’ll get 24 games in the process.
PS Now, sub I got for 50 quid for the year, it’s alright, could be better, but usually keeps you interested with soem new stuff every month. Usually 3 decent games added every month, time limited though for 3 months and rolls on like that.

EA Acess is decent value, 20 quid for the year, and you get all of last years sports games, ie nhl, nfl, nba, ufc, fifa, as well as battlefield 1 and 5, and the starwars battle front games. as well as others.

Basically if you want a shedload of games and don’t care about owning games, then the subs are pretty well worth it.
