Lmao fucking hell man.

So how does this service work? Do you pay a subscription fee and have access to all the titles they're offering? Do you 'rent' the service based on how long you're playing? Do you just rent the games? Or is it a combination of these things?

I'm surprised publishers haven't collectively shit on them for it, especially with digital purchases soaring in popularity and games getting multi-GB patches.

>>384704052

yeah it's fucking awful. nothing worse than getting a game and being excited to play it and having a 20GB update file queued.

i have 50Mbps broadband and sony's servers still download at less than 1 MB per second as well no matter what time you're using it.

This never happened to me. I assume the service is very busy now the kids are out of school in Europe.

Steam servers are only free because Steam practically has a monopoly so they get a bigger cut from digital distribution. Steam is jewing the publishers, not the consumers. Sony can't risk jewing the publishers too much because they'll pack their bags and go to Xbox.

No, PlayStation Now is a service like Netflix but for old games. It's Sony's answer to backwards compatibility and the Virtual Console. Thing is, you have to stream those games from their servers to you system instead of downloading them, just like Netflix, and their servers can only take so many people streaming games at once. Some games are only available through this service, so if you want to play one of those games but are in an hour long queue, you're shit out of luck.

>>384709349
Idk, it seems more insulting to me when they claim to put a lot of crucial data on the disk like with doom, and then it still only accounts for a twentieth of the installation.
I prefer when they tell me that they could not be bothered, instead of being told that they were actually trying to reduce download size when it is obviously a lie.

You are fucking retarded for falling to this shit for 2 reasons, 1) everyone knows PSN its shit and outdated I can't believe someone thinks it can stream games without problems and 2) first you mock PS+ fee with a good fucking reason yet you are happy to pay a fee to stream games, not PS3 to PC ports, streaming games from a PS3 to PC. It's been like 10 years already, surely you can wait a little more for RPCS3 to be more stable. Like holy fuck it would be cheaper and better to buy an used PS3 for $50 and jailbreak it

Xbox BC is one of the few things microsofts managed to do right amidst all their fuck ups.

It's going to be a lot worse when Net Neutrality is repealed. Imagine every online service involving ludicrous queues that only paid VIP members can skip.

The bill being repealed was passed in 2015. Literally nothing changes consumer side. Google, Facebook and such have to actually pay their fair share now. The bill was misnamed after a long standing concept intentionally.

PSNow is fucking cancer, never implied it wasn't. I don't want streaming services to be all we have in 5-10 years, and we all know that's where publishers want to end up. Streamed games with micro-purchases.

The multiplayer and co-op are online-only. You have the single-player campaign to play offline, that's it. Every past Halo game had tons of offline shit to do, including splitscreen for up to four people, local co-op for the campaign, and you could take local players online with you as well. Halo 5 chucked all that out the window, multiplayer is online-only, no splitscreen of offline play at all, and co-op for the campaign is also online only, no local co-op.

Not surprising it sold well under expectations and worse than every other major iteration in the franchise. 343 either didn't know what core Halo fans wanted or didn't care and opted to appeal to a wider audience that wasn't interested and in turn put off older and more casual players with arbitrary changes to the gameplay to "modernize" it and a lack of offline play beyond the shitty campaign no one liked.
