Surprised there isn't a topic for it, neither here or in consoles...

Started trial and this has to be the final nail in the stadia coffin...

Close to no delay/lag and no troubles, just choose a game and start.


Only "downside" is, that it is highly advantageous, and sometimes mandatory, to use a PS4 Dual Shock controller since some games require its functions (motion sensor, tactile pad, etc). But considering this is a service that allows you to stream PS games, it's not a negative point IMHO.

Anyway, over 700 Games from 3 PS Generations, including "PS exclusives" like God of War, Uncharted, etc.

Only requires 5MB connection (I guess it's 5mbyte/40mbit), because again, you are streaming PS games in PS quality.

Pricing is from about 10€/month for a 1-month plan, to like 69€ or 5-6€/month for a year-long plan.

Which IMHO is very correct.

You can get 7 days of free trial.

Hmm...I've been wanting to play Bloodborne for a while. I wonder if the lag, even if minimal, would be a problem for that game. Well, Mr. Corona gave me some free time so guess I'll try it out.

I would do it but alas, the Humps never had a such a function Sad Laughing

I (we) can lock or delete a thread, delete posts or move them from an existing thread to a brand new one but...no merging, it's our forbidden fruit.

I started playing bloodborne there, but later found out that it's without the DLC and there seems to be no way to get the DLC to work there, so I kind of lost interest... but the service works well.

No, PSNow is a cross-gen back catalogue service, unlike Xbox Game Pass.

I have not yet seen a day on date release of new games on the service but FFVII might be added at some point of course. Just not at release.

Hi, im sad to tell that you cannot play VR games with samsung phone in your ass, this is not how VR works, however if you have PSVR + PS4 combo you can play PSVR games while having samsung phone in your ass Smile.

I guess it could work with a VPN, but then you also need to consider that it will be streamed from wherever you use the VPN. So this might add some or a lot of lag...

Just when I started my trial, Spiderman joins the line-up Smile It's a fine time waster, for a console game, and looks pretty great overall.
It's fun enough to swing around NYC, and the combat is Batman-ish, so it's rather tight.

I wanted to finally get to play the God of War trilogy, but man is it boring as hell. Button button evade button button for regular enemies, and 30+ minutes bossfights with the same sequence repeated during 4-5 phases. It was enough to watch it on YT. Very Happy GoW4 might be better, but it's not on PSNow anymore.
