Whatever? PS+ didn't launch on the PS3 until four years after the console came to store shelves, and even then they didn't offer much in free games for a year or so after that, so the console had a good five or six years of bargain bin games to offer.
Anyone who expected full PS4 games to hit the instant collection at launch, or shortly after for that matter, is insane. I assume the full free games will be mostly indie titles for a while.
Considering that Sony will be making a loss on every console at launch this seems like a fair compromise, and it's certainly more than Microsoft is currently offering.
Sony already offers limited content from games like Uncharted but only the story mode.
Dunno but this seems quite reasonable.

Also i hope that with PS+ you get PS4 games but also PS3 games through Gaikai.
Maybe it will eventually play PS3 games from the store. Don't the PS2 games from the PS store work on the slim PS3?

Where did you hear that? Pachter estimated it costs 325 for ps4 hardware costs. Thats 75 bucks they make for every console.
They can't afford to take a loss on any console considering that the overall company of sony isn't doing too well.

They pay a license fee to the Blu-ray Disc Association which comprises of many companies not just sony.

Sony's entertainment division is doing extremely well and it would be perfectly fine for them to make an initial loss on each unit because they will make all of that money back in software sales.
Also, Michael Patcher is not a hardware analyst and so I would take what he says with a massive grain of salt.
