... I just remember this might probably be for NA/EU PS+ only.

 

[tirminyl]

Oh how I lol'd!!!

There is nothing like a good laugh to send you off to bed with.

 

[MissDeviling]

Lord Almighty.

 

[MercuryLS]

This could just be for the trial. There's no way they're going to give you 1 or 7 days free. If imagine the final pricing would be 1 hour free trial, 2 days for like 2-3 bucks, one week 5 bucks 10-15 bucks to buy.

Ah, I remember a thread about some odd rental laws in Japan. Wonder how this will play out over there, or if it will even be an issue since it's digital and more controlled.

 

[legacyzero]

Lol!

 

[lucius]

This is unexpected if comes out being true, would try some.

 

[Omnistalgic]

Sony!!

I like what I'm seining Sony...

[TriGen]

I would love this.

 

[DR3AM]

If they do this for all games (even 1 day rental or even like a 2-5 hour trail) it will be the greatest thing ever

 

[nikos]

No rental option for me. US PS+ member.

Been really wanting to play Catherine too. $9.99 is a great price, but I sort of want the physical version.

 

[jacobeid]

No way. Could be huge? Could be nothing.

 

[Flandy]

So, on top of paying the potential $50 for membership, we also have to pay $10 per game?

You can buy it without having PS+ :lol

 

[NavyPharaoh]

I think sony is gonna do something along the lines of plus members get x number of days of free rentals. That would explain why 7 days of catherine would be free in both instances. Adds value to plus without devaluing ps now

 

[bigboss370]

got to be a PSNow beta thing.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Isn't this bad for Sony? Some people wouldn't even have to buy any games at all since they'll finish it in a weekend.

 

[Dragonborn]

Games probably wouldn't be available for rent immediately. May a month or two after.

 

[Chris_C]

There's no way 7-days will be free not even 1 day.

Most games can easily be powered through in 7 days. If so...then....I mean....all of my goddamns. All of it.

I'm amused that so many people don't seem to understand that the "FREE", is just a placeholder.

 

[imjust1n]

7 days for free 5 bucks for 30 days that would be cool.

 

[jsnepo]

7 days for free 5 bucks for 30 days that would be cool.

Seven days free is too crazy to be true. A lot of games can be finished within that period.

 

[Ran rp]

The future is Now

 

[LOLCats]

This guy at work, every conversation we have about games, he say "sony is killing it"... Maybe he's right.

 

[Blitzrules240]

This is gonna be sweet when it heads to PS4.

 

[Dart]

The future is Now

That would be a killer slogan.

 

[Lepcis Magna]

7 days for free sounds too good to be true

Maybe this price is for PS Plus users?

 

[Amon-Lau]

I'm assuming it's free just for the beta, for testing purposes... =0
Otherwise this wouldn't make sense...

 

[Platinum_D]

Very interested in this it sounds really good

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

I'm dying.

 

[fvng]

Was this option removed? I only see a purchase option available for Catherine (North America)

Seven days free is too crazy to be true. A lot of games can be finished within that period.

How is that different from finishing a game in a GameFly rental?

 

[Piccoro]

The dude of PSNstores who tried this, says there are 1, 7 and 30 days rental options:

This has to be a glitch. Somehow the Plus 1-hour trials got mixed up with PS Now...

 

[Redlight]

Killer feature. Digital game rentals are just the most obvious thing. I can't wait!

 

[TheRealTalker]

Wait in general
And not the streaming service....

Edit: is this why we got the store delay

 

[Marvel]

Woo!

 

[ismk]

This is going to be amazing when it gets released to everyone.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Lol

Grace Chen taking down numbers

 

[jon bones]

fuck yes! this is an awesome idea

 

[Jomjom]

The future is Now

Beta tested in the future.

 

[Bold One]

If correctly implemented this could bury Gamestop, and that pleases me greatly

 

[fvng]

Beta tested in the future.

I'm Done.

 

[Furyous]

*Looks at Ground Zeroes*

*Birdman hand rub*

I finished uncharted 2 in three days and uncharted 3 in two days. This is easily the best thing in years. Microsoft has to counter this somehow.

 

[Narroo]

All I see is the 9.99 option. Is this for PSN+ only, or did they fix this already?

 

[Canis lupus]

This is amazing, but game rentals are illegal in my banana country.

 

[Alchemy]

Rentals will probably be announced at GDC or E3, and the pricing is definitely a glitch, probably the result of a price not being set yet. Could be really exciting depending on how the deal pans out.

 

[Zatoichi's Cane]

1 Day rental? It'll take me more than a day to download a 9 GB file off PSN.

complete nonsense.

 

[fvng]

1 Day rental? It'll take me more than a day to download a 9 GB file off PSN.

Are you on dial up

 

[NastyBook]

FYI you can easily do catherine in a week if you try.

I'd rather do Catherine for a week.

 

[SPACECADET]

hot dog on a saturday night!

 

[spwolf]

I wonder if ps+ members get a 7 day trial and non ps+ members get a 1 day trial.

you will not get 1 day trial... PS+ members get 60 minute trials of games, or at least did in the past.

 

[Clarkus Darkus]

Never understood why there wasn't an option to rent a game digitally, They get money straight too them and we get to try games we wouldn't normally try, I really hope this gets added too the ps4.

 

[licktheenvelope]

If this applies to PS4 games as well that would be remarkable, though I concur the pricing cannot be correct at $0.
