I pretty much don't rent games anymore. I feel that demos provide a good enough taste to determine whether a game is worth buying or not. And for games that don't have demos, I'll watch a Let's Play or two. But I'm starting to stray off topic.

I know many people like game rentals. But PS Now will have to cost less than competing rental services. Sure, there's the convenience of instantly playing a game you choose to rent. Unfortunately, the latency, degraded image quality, and inconsistency of real-time streaming will make many games far less enjoyable than if you just rented a disc.

Also, I'm worried that PS Now spells the end of those rumors of the PS4 getting PS2 emulation...


I am just curious to know if you use Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime.

I find it very interesting that so many are willing to use those kind of services, but see something like this as a threat or not adequate for their gaming experience. Perhapps, people on these forums are not users of these streaming services? I think I will make a thread and poll about this in around 6 months depending on how PS Now performs in that time.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
