Forums - Sony Discussion - Sony's PSNow Pricings Are Crazy

Man they can't wait till we don't really own our games



Around the Network

I have read in many places that is not the actual pricing and I certainly hope that is true. I have been playing with the closed beta and have been impressed. I think Sony could really have something here. However, for a gamer like me that pricing is not going to work. As with many people I think something subscription based is the way to go. Of course, I understand that it will not be as profitable for the company initially.



Thanks but no thanks, Sony! I was totally expecting this to be one fee (month/3 months/year) for full access to all PSN games. If it's like this - no way, lol. I'm not gonna pay for a rental, when I can buy a game for cheaper/similar.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

I wouldn't even pay $1 for 4 hours.



games cheaper than the 90 day rental

so does this mean we can't purchase to play it whenever we want...?

or meaning whatever we have bought from PSN will be free to play on PSnow...??



I think that's why it's in beta form right now and released to the public. I'm certain somebody notified Sony through the survey and let them know about the steep prices. Especially compared to prices that are already on the store. If Sony chooses to go with this approach for PS NOW, then I think PSN games should be lower than retail games. I mean to rent a game for 90 days is equivalent to the price of the game anyway.

I seriously thought they would adopt the Netflix approach as well with limitations. I hope they still will do it.

But you aren't buying them. You're renting them.
