i actually don't mind the 7$ for a week deal,you can beat most games that aren't a rpg in that time.. if you want the month long rental,thats 11.99$ for 30 days,whats that 40 cents a day(00.40$)? just about most rpg's can be beat in a month.....

ideal would be lower prices for the much older games,,,but if they keep it like this,this isn't a deal breaker for me.

Thanks for sharing a very relevant and compeling argument to counter those anti-PSnow opinions. I'm feel very enlighted now.

OP: I think the price is okay.
My main concern with this service is how well it will work and I'm not sure if we have the option to actually buy the games too :(

True! Rip off!

I was not sure about PS Now in the beginning because of demand for the service based on the cost and now that Sony is trying out this price structure, I become even less interested in the service. One thing we as gamers know is that when it comes to games, gamers are very tight. Casual gamers complain about paying a dollar for Smart phone games. Core gamers complained about paying 5 bucks for Arcade games on PS+ or XBL.

Now someone is going to convince me that gamers are going to pay those prices just to rent old games??

Some of the excusses I have seen are really out there. People are trying to justify the price by saying that Sony is spending a lot of money on the service and keeping those servers up and running ect. The problem with this mentality is that when all is said and done, gamers and especially casual gamers do not care. No one cares how much a company is spending on something to deliver you a product. Instead, if its costing a company a lot of money to deliver you a product and the consumer value of that product is way lower than you are pricing, how is going to lose that battle.

I am not going to say that PS Now is going to fail but Sony really will have to find a good price point that meets consumers expectation of the service with the amount of money they can charge. At this point, it looks like PS Now could be a money sink and Sony really does not need another one of those.

In the other streaming providers do you have the option to buy the game and just stream it ad infinitum?? Seems an exquisite concept but could be interesting.

I'm more curious does the service actually work? Obviously there are huge issues with the pricing for now but if its technically possible, then it's a game changer in the broader scheme of things.

Yes, it works but you milage will vary depending on how close you are to a datacenter, ping, and latency you have between the servers.  PS Now could be a game changer but right now its tied to Sony eco system which means that its way to small to change anything.  Also its not like the service has not been out there before.  It did no change the game nor did any of the companies who did game streaming really made a dent in the market. Sony will definitely will have to broaden the reach of PS Now beyound Sony products because outside of the PS4, Sony products really not lighing up sales charts.

People like to complain. Thats about it.

The games on PS Now are more comparable to full retail games on the Wii U.

I tried it with  Catherine and it worked pretty well. I only noticed a bit of input lag every now and then but nothing game breaking.
