Forums - Sony - shouldnt psnow (beta) be free?

All the games were free before the post e3 update to PS Now... some games were removed like Dead Island Riptide, Pacific Rim...

They are charging way too much for what it is though I think... why charge $20-40 bucks for a month rental on a game that I can get for less in stores and own it?

in reference to KH3 release date

Around the Network

Prices should be similar to Redbox. $2/day. However, since this is all digital they could likely easily do a $2/day, $10/(7-day) week scenario.

If a game has multiplayer and singleplayer why not also give discounts for those who only wish to rent one portion?


This is what beta is for though. It will all change over time.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

My take....if PS4 was pulling WiiU sales numbers the beta would be free.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

i was in the closed beta... it was alright. I didn't use it very much.
Interesting technology but I doubt I would use it.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash
