PlayStation Now Streaming Game Service Coming this Summer

[NuclearDragon]

Yeah there's some work that needs to be done on this to make more enticing for me. No one wants to have to rebuy games.

I'd say there's some work that could be done to sweeten the pot on this. The pot is decent enough already with allowing classics and stuff, but you know some of that could made more accommodating to those who may have paid for certain game digitally.

They should add Playstation 1 and 2 games as well, I know I would pay for that!
There's a ton of "classics" why limit it to the PS3?

 

[Ghost_of_Crash]

Honestly classics kick off with PS1 and PS2. That's what there should be a lot of if they want to talk classics.

How awesome would it be if we could play the first Crash Bandicoot games on our Playstation4!

ooga booga!

 

[SpaceTiger]

Those PSX and PS2 games are the ones I'd really like to get my hands on with this.

It would be way past awesome to play the original Crash games.

 

[Tomba]

I'd like to play Crash, but we know what title I'd really like to play...Tomba.

I know it's a long shot but I would love to see some JRPGs that were never brought over on PSNOW. I mean Nintendo finally brought over Mother 2, so I would really enjoy the chance of playing some of the JRPGS that I had to import on the service. Still I agree that having Crash on the PS4 would be amazing.

I think the only problem that this service will have is that I don't think that most people will actually have fast enough internet to stream these games to have them look HD perfect on their big screen TV's, but if you have a Vita, then the games should hold up on a smaller screen.

The cable and phone companies in America are at fault for this, price gouging on almost all of their tiers and placing caps on how much you can download. Why does Japan and other parts of the world give you almost unlimited speeds and no download caps? Don't get me started with these crooks.

 

[vkavas2]

Its the same almost everywhere. Even in India.

I just hope the sevice offers both streaming and download options.

Gaikai had both techs. Sony is not saying what they will use

Because it makes it easier to kill demons with waves and such according...to the story of Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor.

...and I take Shin Megami Tensei as fact.

 

[NuclearDragon]

Tomba said you took the rules of wasteland as fact.

 

[swagger]

I'm really excited for this, it can either be really good or really bad, we'll just have to see.

 

[DrRipley]

Wow, I had to look that up just to confirm I understood it correctly, and I'm still surprised that this is the direction they are heading - which I think is great, by the way. If I'm not mistaken, it's pretty much going to be their version of OnLive? If so, I definitely want to see it happen and I think they are headed in the right direction. I'm guessing they are foreseeing an end to consoles by the time internet speed standards go up in a few years.

 

[Lodismel]

This service sounds really awesome. The big question is how much will this cost? I'm also very curious about what 'non-Playstation' devices they are talking about. Would this be mobile devices or PC perhaps? If it was on PC that would be really interesting.
