Forums - Sony Discussion - Are you ok with PS Now and PlayStation's Game Library Going to PC?

Ever since the announcement of PS Now it has been heavily discussed that PS Now will most likely make its way to PC.  I beleive its only a matter of time myself.

PS Now is already available on both Sony TV's and Samsung TV's

And personally i don't think that Sony should ignore PC.  Honestly I believe they should release older games that arent selling more on steam like Heavy Rain, ICO, etc  This doesn't hurt them in the home console business and expands their profits which they definitely need.

So I ask, how do you all feel about the path of PS Now?




       

Around the Network

Why would someone not be OK? My guess is that Sony would want to be accessible to as many interested users as possible, and PC is by far the most logical destination.
I wouldn't mind it coming to toasters and fridges if they ran the games OK, more Dualshocks sold for Sony.



Well it depends on who they're marketing it to. I doubt that any serious member of the PC master race would even have a second look at PSNow simply because it looks like shit and runs like shit compared to what they're used to.
I don't think they will have too much of an audience on PC but if they want to try, more power to them.

For me PSNow seems perfect for TVs and android stream boxes.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I'm confused as to why they wouldn't just use their pc for....you know....the vastly superior selection of pc games.

Maybe they want to play a first party PlayStation game?

As long as it's just previous generations sure, don't see the problem.

Because it could change the future of console games.

I genuinely believe both XB/PS will make XBL/PSN a platform eventually.  Not now, but i believe that is what we are leading up to.  




       

The more people have access to these great games the better.

But bringing games directly to Tvs wil not change the future of console games?

Wouldn't it be more dangerous, as now you don't need any kind of box?

When I say XBL/PSN will be a platform i mean that they will expand their portfolio outside of consoles with the digital market.  This would include TV.  However i dont expect TV to be anywhere near as popular as PC.
