yea ive never heard of anyone using PS now either. i dont even know the deals, whats released in those months or anything. i just know, or believe to know its kind of like a game rental subscription? pay for it, get the game for a month, then thats it

Its a ps3 streaming service
Heavily reliant on you having phenomenal internet
You pay a flat fee and have access to the entire library of games theyve added and you pick and choose what you wanna play
Ive used the timed trial once years ago and it was a horrible experience
Im sure its gotten better since but still
I dont think sony makes a ton of money from it and i can see them pulling the plug on it one day as they do with everything that isnt a home run
Im looking at you playstation move, playstation vita, playstation vita tv, playstation vue (another streaming service they pulled the plug on) etc

Id say you have atleast til the end of the year
Maybe even into next year, idk

Ive had this discussion on psnprofiles
Maybe im completely wrong but my points are all valid
Sony has been shutting down ps3 servers left and right until theres going to be nothing left
If the playstation network is all the same, why cant you view ps5 related trophies and things alike on older hardware, sure you cant run a ps5 game on ps3, thats obvious but you cant even view a trophy list either? A wall of text? Thats weird
Ps Now is basically the last line of defense in sony showing ps3 support
I know lots of people with active ps+ memberships
I dont know a single person with an active Ps Now subscription
Ive only ever heard of people abusing the 7day timed trials to whore easy platinums in a weeks time and ive been one of those people
Speaking of ps now, you can buy a month in NA right now for $1

Hey man , long time hope you’re well

I’m on topic - I had ps now and tbh it was unusable , was insanely slow and laggy and my internet was fairly good at the time
