Thing with that though is that its just biased nonsense. Why? Because they are not the same thing. If someone says they prefer being able to download all the games on the service as opposed to stream them then thats another matter. And thats an arument about local play vs streaming. But as it stands, one service offers only game downloads and is promising to soon start offering game streaming. The other service offers primarily game streaming and is offering to fully support (cause they partially already do) game downloads. So why would anyone even feel the need to compare the two? Or someone say xcloud that doesn't even exist yet is better than something that does. Makes no sense. |
They're both services that offer access to a library of games that could be played without limit for a flat fee. The delivery method is somewhat different for now, but ultimately they're similar enough that they're very comparable. If I were choosing to buy a console, having access to one or the other would be rather important and I may definitely want to compare them.
I bought a PS4 a while ago, but if I were choosing again today, PSNow vs Gamepass would be a huge factor in my decision and may swing my opinion the other way.
