is your theme a rendition of the O'Jays "For the Love of Money" bass line +TechnoBuffaloPlays?
bought the bravia kdl40w600, and cannot get it to let me log into the ps now app on the tv. so annoyed!!!!!!! 🙁
But what if I want to buy them for like…forever? Can't I do that? Not even in the ps store?
This lag is bad! When i used onlive (similar to gaikai which this service is based on) on my crappy 2007 laptop with a 7M adsl i had less lag. I hope it will improve
Can we own PS3 games for ever on PS Now? or just for rent…
Well it's only getting better. It was pretty bad during closed beta. Especially the prices.
it would be cheaper to buy a ps3 in the long run, plus you can keep the games on it
Ok remind me on why I would use Playstation Now? Bullsh*t like this is why I never trade or sell consoles or games. My god I still have my colecovision, xbox 360, dreamcast, playstation 1, 2 & 3!!!
I love enslaved its an awesome game i got so far on the game but then i had to take it back to the library but i can't wait to pick it up again if gamestop still have it
I'm so glad u posted this video helping me be even less excited about ps now then I was before.
the ea access sounds good right now.
Question.. can we copy our PS3 saves from its HDD and use it while on the PS Now via PS4??
I hate the fact it's rentall…
Woah you guys are getting done with this Playstation lol
It can be difficult not to be slightly apologist about the flaws in this system after having spent 20+ bucks on the experience. I'm just glad there's a video showing the latency, which seems to be a staggering 250-300ms (taking into account monitor lag, the game's native 30fps, etc.) In a nutshell, the latency and visual degradation pigeonholes PSNow as not being worth monetary investment, though as a system of backwards compatibility, since it's literally the only possible option in the current gen, it's better than nothing. Your electric bill would prefer that you buy a used PS3.
Can you get trophies on PSnow?
Thanks for taking the time to record and post this video. I've been excited about PlayStation Now for a long time, and it's cool to finally see the service out in the wild.
Will they add mw2 to this or any cod?
I think they should have this kind of system if u own a disk of a game that's in the library already than just put it in wait until it recognizes and play because their are people who won't rent game again since they already own it
I wish my internet was better cause if not I need to live closer to the exchange
does anyone know if all these titles can be streamed on the Vita?
You can't judge any online only service based on launch day. For all intents and purposes open beta is pretty much launch day. The servers are getting hammered. Make this video again when less people are hammering their servers.
I tried it out over wifi and it took maybe 5 minutes to load the games and I have crap internet, too many slugs feeding off it but it wasn't 30 minutes??
That pricing tough :S
Nice video man. i like the music 🙂
I'll wait till the subscription there saying we might have
So, you didn't really clarify, are you on WiFi or are you hardwired? I've heard it barely works on WiFi no matter how fast your router/connection is because the PS4's WiFi card isn't very good to begin with…
