But they are.

I just watched 4 video reviews on youtube of PS Now. Seems much better than I thought. This review was really good:
Other than the 1 minute game prep time, it looks damn good and played good. Not that I want it, but it sure looks better than OnLive did.

Exclusive no more: PlayStation 4 games are coming to the PC via PlayStation Now
For starters you won't see every game/exclusive on PsNow. Going by history Sony is SLOW. We'll get less than half the library in 3 years.
For PS3 you can get all the Killzones, all the Uncharteds, all the infamouses, most of the Ratchets, all the god of wars, the last of us, Puppeteer,Heavy Rain, Beyond 2 souls.
The biggest ommisions are MGS4 , LBP and the GT games.
The service only started in 2014 and has basically stolen 95% of the reason to buy a PS3. Most of the PS3s 2013 release library were on the service before 2014 ended.
The biggest problem is most of Sonys first party on PS4 since launch are remasters which are already on the service . Year by year that means
2013 Knack, Killzone 4,
2014 Infamous Second Son, Driveclub
2015 Bloodborne, Until Dawn
2016 Uncharted 4, Ratchet remake, The Last guardian
2017 Horizon ZD, Gravity Rush 2
Barely double digits for non remakes. Half of which not worth a free trial.
Of course you can believe that Sony just dont want to make a return on a $380m investment by suggesting the PC market has a hard on for sub-par version of games already on a PC and the exclusives Playstation owners dont like like Knack, Driveclub and Until Dawn. Lets see how that goes.
All we know is Sony have no problems putting Naughty Dog, Geurilla Games, SuckerPunch, Insomniac on the service in less than a year.
Yes. Its very different from XPA. You'll need a $xxx rig to replicate the Xbox library on a PC with similar performance plus the cost of the game. Whereas your $5 Raspberry Pi (the free one that comes on magazines) is enough to run PS4 exclusives.
And hey, you dont need to buy any of the games since Sony has culled the multiplayer from most of their titles, meaning very little replayability. You can zip through that horizon, uncharted and bloodborne combo campaigns in half the time of that free week. Or take a month for a 3rd the cost of a retail game.
Kvally: What's funny ? You guys are reaching at best.... He's trying to argue opinion with fact. . The Ps3 has quite a few games that are missing from the service and many of them like TLOU I wouldn't touch on PsNow. Again New IP's are annnounced exclusively on Ps4 nearly every month.
PsNow factually runs at lower quality than Netflix it's nowhere close to mimicing the actual hardware even with the best internet connection. Compared to the Pro ithe differences are night and day. With PsNow you are a limited to certain genre's but even then you never get fully immersed. Coming from someone who doesn't mind 720p PsNow is trash.
Most everything he said is a spin or just dumb opinion.
Netflix vs Blu ray is a TERRIBLE comparison that reeks of pointless desperation.
Nope. Fact remains that we no longer need to buy a PlayStation to play the PS4 games. Just like we no longer need to buy an Xbox to play Xbox games. We can play the games on PC now, that is a fact.
Also it is unlikely every PS4 game will make it on to PS Now. Just like it is factual that not every Xbox game from MS will be coming to PC.
But now that we can play PS4 and Xbox One games on PC, and we don't need to buy the consoles, they no longer have exclusives.
You can spin it all day long buy coming up with excuses, such as quality, but that doesn't change the fact that I can play the games on PC. Therefore, no longer exclusive. That is a fact as well.
Just because you won't touch the games at 720p doesn't mean millions won't be. It's obviously successful for Sony. Not to mention, the reviews for PS Now are great.

Actually ps now barely even works on pc. So many things are completely broken with the pc version of ps now that it's not even functional. I'm trying my best to get it to work for my pc, but with zero luck. I have yet to even start a game yet.Nope. Fact remains that we no longer need to buy a PlayStation to play the PS4 games.

^and that alone is why Netflix and Blu Ray are bad comparisons

No such thing as no issues. He's just keeping quiet to you about the problems of the service or he got extremely lucky. Reports across the board slam the pc version.My son is doing the 7 day free trial on his PC with no issues.
Ok.No such thing as no issues. He's just keeping quiet to you about the problems of the service or he got extremely lucky. Reports across the board slam the pc version.
It's true. The service has been dogged since its conception. The pc version app is even worse.
Ok, I will let him know that you told him his experience isn't really his experience. Thank you for that.It's true. The service has been dogged since its conception. The pc version app is even worse.
I actually already knows. He'd rather be gaming on an Xbox One than a game streaming service.Ok, I will let him know that you told him his experience isn't really his experience. Thank you for that.

Quite a few = depends on what your after. No ones remotely bothered that Resistance 2 and Motorstorm and Lair arent on the service.
However if you want to play naughty dog games, Suckerpunch games, Santa Monica Games, guerilla games...games. Yes. Support is guarenteed.
Their PS4 games showing up are just on line with expectations Sony sets.
PSNow supports 720p because its they atypical resolution of PS3 games. We dont know what res PS4 games will support...but when Youtube supports 1080p for FREE. You sure as s*** better do for $20 a month.
Yeah its not as good a quality as native, but at the end of the day Netflix isnt as good as blu ray and you dont get the directors commentary, but you can watch a dozen box sets for $5 a month on or pay $720 for same and switch discs like a schmuck.
Suggesting the netflix viewer is missing out on anything major isnt seeing the forest for the trees
The X1 is nowhere close to matching the Playstation's library in exclusives.
No one here is "spinning" besides you and Sasquatch. lol
The reality is you'll play SOME titles at s***ty quality on PsNow and the games that do come will be a year + away.
On the the flip side we get every X1 game on PC
Also we don't know wich games are going to be on PsNow and when.
The games are exclusive untill Sony says otherwise.
Your reaching...
THE END. ...
