Is PS Now worth it?

[Muzzlrpress]

Is it basically gamepass? Good selection of games?

Can I download the games (preferred), or do I have to stream them?

Currently have game pass ultimate on Xbox one.

Definitely worth it. 1000%.

Only reason I don't have it is because I personally prefer to own my games and have the means to do so. PSpass mogs gamepass imo.

[OptimusTrajan]

No. You likely already have any of the good games on it. I haven't used it in 2 years, but the PS3 streaming wasn't very good either.

If you have gamepass its a hard sell.



That said, it really depends on how many games you've played or how many games that you want to play that are on PS Now ... If there's a lot of games you havnt played that are on ps now, it's a no brainer imo.




Even gamepass is kind meh for me rn. I've played almost all the biggest and main games I wanted to play on there ... But having access to newer games like Plague Tale, Pentiment and a couple older titles like gears of war 2 etc is pretty cool. Gamepass will hold a lot more value for future games.

I mean it's basically GamePass with better games, but I am not sure why you would want both unless you are gaming 30 hours a day, as there is probably some redundency.

Even one of these subscription services is too much for me. I understand the appeal to people who prefer a quantity over quality form of gaming as entartainment, but it definately isn't for me. Recently in a cloud of drug induced ignorance freebruner questioned if I play videogames and it appears I have averaged about 10 per year since PS4 came out. Some of those 10 are free PS+ Essential games, some I buy, but I don't think any of them would even be available (or very very few) on GamePass or PS+++ so these services just don't give me what I want to enjoy the hobby, even if they were just $1 a month, it's not for me.

On a yearly basis it's cheaper and how better game library than Gamepass.

Only thing Gamepass has over PS+ extra is some new games are directly available on gamepass (but not many)
