And people wonder why the greed is getting worse in gaming. lol. Just look at all you people, drooling over being charged two subscriptions for something that should be free. I bought a PS4, and one of the biggest factors was BC. I figured, well, we have to pay to play, but at least we get BC. But I never thought in my wildest dreams Sony would actually have the BALLS to charge another annual fee for it. That's some f'ed up shit right there. That's something MS wouldn't even attempt....MICROSOFT!!

No, they only attempted to make you pay a subscription (Xbox Live)to be able to use something we've already paid for (BBC iPlayer) 4 years ago. (okay so it's different but still).

 

That said,a streaming service does not interest me unless they have a way of allowing you to play games for nothing that you already own but no service like this would ever just be free. I'll stick to buying older games i want on ebay aor play my ps1 games on my PS3 or PS2.


What I meant by free was that it should be included in PS+. I don't believe it should be yet another subscription.

Ugh. This generation is totally over now imo. Both MS and Sony have gone bat shit greedy in different ways and it's, imo, gone too far. I find it funny how the one console out of the three that ISN'T over reaching with greedy hands is the one no one is buying. It's like the total IQ of the world is getting lower by the day and companies are pouncing on it.

Guess I'll be playing a Wii-U after all. I'll just get my core fix on Steam or older generations.


You honestly thought this feature was going to be free?

 

Wow, just wow! I hope you don't run a business.


Why would I wanna be a scociopathic, capitalistic cancer on society? lol. If I ran a business, I certainly wouldn't bleed my employees and customers dry. This service should be included for PS+ subs....period.



Now if this can play all PS3 games I'll buy a Vita Instantly.



 

 

 

Physical media is going bye bye, Gamestop has less than 10 years left before it is gone like Blockbuster, and this is most likely the last console generation. Thank God because using physical media in the year 2020 would be embarrassing.



I said at the PS4 reveal this would be an extra fee on top of PS+. I'm already seeing people who think this should be included with the PS+ subscription. Time to wake up. This will be $19.99 per month minimum.

5 mbps connection? Would that be enough for low latency? I certainly believe 8-10 mbps would be the ideal requirements. Well the closed beta sessions could finalize the bar.



Wow absolutely amazing, Sony reinventing the wheel as per usual.

Good luck playing your free games from older Nintendo platforms on your free Virtual Console as well as the very quickly discounted Nintendo 1st party software on the Wii U and bye bye!



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I predict right now. Console wars will be gone by 2018. Instead we will have service wars.

I agree tho I think it will be priced closer to $9.99 a month. Netflix is the template for this. I think with this price it would be doable for most.  I mean you can only play so many games in a month period. In comparison, 10 bucks a month is more than equivilant of the avg dollar one spends on games in a single year.

I hope we can just.....buy games, PS NOW Cloud version, to play whenever we want.
