PS Now could be an awesome service if it wasn't for Sony.

Have time passed when you were writing your post? Time passes when Sony improve things. Time has passed during this 6 years while Sony has improved PS Now a lot and it'll pass while Sony keeps improving it. They know they've got to compete with Google, MS and all of them on streaming services.

Now i've got to give you some time for you to reply.

Wow, what a dumb response.

PS Now is technically a great a service, it takes time and money to create that.

Sony putting more old 1st party PS4 could probably happen instantly. The problem is no desire to do that.

Hence, time isn't the issue. I think their strategy of holding back 1st party content is bad strategy in regard to growing the service. I'm reluctant to recommend the service for that very reason.

Wow, what an idiotic reply, Mr Puggly.

Desire doesn't drive business decisions. Even if it was just about desiring to do so, they would still have to wait some time before all other profit options dry. Adding any PS4 1st party game to PS Now would be a mistake. They would have lost those sales for no reason other than desire.

Hence, desire isn't the issue. It's business. It's profit. PS Now is a way to streaming a good collection of games that, after reasonable time though those years, have grown. There might be a time in the future where Sony will be profiting from PS5 games and PS Now might get those PS4 titles. PS Now so far is a sort of a "virtual console" and I believe it's one of its purposes. GamePass is a different thing. GamesPass is not only about streaming, it's more a kinda glorified sales deal from a console that hasn't been benefiting very well from its regular game sales.
