It’s expired now but this is madness (in a positive way)! I bought today this 1 month promotion and to put it mildly, I’m overwhelmed by the number of quality games that I haven’t played throughout the years but plan to now. Big problem is how to cram everything in one month because there’s at least 20 must-play games and it‘s gonna be near impossible to give everything attention it deserves. So, for a start, I’m doing Detroit: Become Human and loving it so far. Next is Until Dawn, Doom, Tekken 7, Ace Combat 7 and there’s whole bunch of other stuff I only glimpsed. I mean, I see F1 2020 there ffs. If I only eat, game and sleep every day, I couldn’t do it all. Maybe I’ll just drop another tenner after this month and finish everything I need.

It’s like PS Plus on massive steroids and basically free. Crazy stuff.

But $1 gamepass is horrible for gaming, right?

 

[Fox Mulder]

I got it and was playing Sly Cooper 1 tonight with no issues. I never bothered with PS Now thinking streaming sucks ass, but might keep it if it works this well just for ps3 stuff.

Don't think he means that, if anything he is backing up the huge value of these services

 

[Sir Vilhelm]

Wasn't directed at OP, I think both services offer great value.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

And so it should be.

Just like how GamePass first blew my socks off when I saw the catalogue of games available after signing up for a dollar.

I legit don't know what to play sometimes. Pity the hard drive on the Series S is so fucking tiny at 512GB.

 

[bucyou]

literally all you do is jerk off to gamepass on the forum, but now you had to go and bring up gamepass in a thread no one asked you about it.

you are horrible for gaming, right?

 

[Trogdor1123]

Wasn't directed at OP, I think both services offer great value.

I do too. They are great. Gamepass is better I think but costs like 2x the price for a yearly subscription ibthink. So it is justified.

Both are great.

 

[ethomaz]

Nah it is not even worth of it at any price except maybe for the downloaded PS4 games even so you probably already have all of them from Plus.

 

[apowhungo]

So, for a start, I’m doing Detroit: Become Human and loving it so far. Next is Until Dawn

those games suck play doom

 

[Keihart]

This reads like those gamepass threads back in the day

 

[thelastword]

It's actually profitable too....

 

[Agent X]

There really are a lot of good games on the service. It has such an extensive library, with big-name hits as well as some fun niche games.

So, for a start, I’m doing Detroit: Become Human and loving it so far.

I just started Detroit: Become Human for the first time a few days ago, and yes, it's rather excellent.

Considering the large majority of games available on gamepass are the xbox one versions, couldn't you just add a $50 2tb usb drive? Keep the most commonly played games on the ssd?

 

[a multicultural team of v]

I'm also a fan, the cheap price is fair for the older games. It's a great service for when you are between new releases and want to check out a past game that interested you, but not enough to buy it. I would have never pulled the trigger on Observation otherwise, and I am SO glad I played it because I loved it.

It also has like 5 Atelier games so 10/10

 

[kretos]

best deal in gaming is free games from Sony and Epic, 0 is better than 1

 

[LOLCats]

sony needs a ps+ ultimate sub for $100 a year.

 

[DeadOblivion78]

This is a gamepass ad with extra steps.

 

[Rockondevil]

I mean I paid $1 for 3 years of gamepass, so there’s that.

 

[ReBurn]

Jim is that you?

 

[ACESHIGH]

I'd love to try PS Now. Maybe one day they will get the service to South America. Now that they wont have to keep legacy stores running maybe they have the manhours to dedicate to that.

 

[Gamerguy84]

I had it for a year and used it more than I thought but mostly to play games I didn't even know I would like.

If you stream PS3 games I highly recommend hardwired. remote play works so much better in my own house with all devices on the same network HWd.

 

[ArtemisClydeFrog]

Kid: "Hey mum can we PLEASE get Gamepass?"

Mum: "We have Gamepass at home"

Gamepass at home:

Seriously though that's a pretty good deal, I wish they'd keep it longer.

 

[Derktron]

PAID BY SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT

 

[Imru’ al-Qays]

The service is useless.

 

[Derktron]

Damn bro why you got to burn him like that

 

[graywolf323]

wait I thought it was until the end of the day today (Monday)? shoot, I screwed up and missed out on the $1 for a month then >_<

 

[jaysius]

I bought the $1 deal and I tried a few things, and I almost regretted it immediately, I really don't think I'll get the value out of it honestly.

I do like the categories they use, if Xbox could use that, it'd be nice.

They put the ICONS of the games on your main screen as if you own them, when you TRY TO USE THEM they tell you to go through the APP, that is STUPID as fuck. This is on PS4.

Gamepass treats Gamepass content as an owned game, no need for extra bullshit. The integration is awful at least on PS4. Hell even the OLD Xbox One had it this way.

 

[Dream-Knife]

I bought PSnow on sale last year and have been really disappointed with it.

Did get to finally play MGS4 though, so thats cool. Lag was annoying but that game is a movie anyway.

 

[Shmunter]

Holy shit, gamepass toppled

Oh well, it was a good week.

 

[Bryank75]

Gamepass had a good run.

 

[Dlacy13g]

Ha...its amazing what a good acquisition sales does for the perception of a service.

On a similar yet slightly different note.... Google Stadia was the best when it was in its free beta!

 

[azertydu91]

literally all you do is jerk off to gamepass on the forum, but now you had to go and bring up gamepass in a thread no one asked you about it.

you are horrible for gaming, right?

Don't worry I'm sure Concern will complain about him derailing the thread any seconds now.... Oh no wait, it's a sony thread, ain't no problem talking about gamepass or Xbox then ...

 

[faraany3k]

Not worth it to be honest.

 

[lh032]

The issues I have with all these services, is that it relies on the internet (yes i know you can download some games).

I always prefer physical disk and no always online bs

 

[haxan7]

I wanna find a lover who looks at me like that

 

[Hitchyhero]

Another PS now thread.....i swear these threads arnt organic and its just Sony paying people to market it..... /s

 

[Jaysen]

No service where a huge chunk of the library is only available via streaming will ever be worth a shit on a network as unreliable as PSN.

 

[Perrott]

Wrong.

Epic Games Store's $0 is the best deal in gaming.

 

[GhostOfTsu]

There's a lot of great PS4 games for new gamers or people that don't subscribe to PS Plus. Lots of exclusives. It's actually impressive but people here won't let you have a positive thread about PS Now, as you can see by the replies.

I'm playing God of War Ascension on streaming and it looks good enough for me on a 4k screen.

 

[hemo memo]

Nice try Sony marketing guy.

 

[Oddvintagechap]

1? WTF.

Sony and Epic are giving me games for free. But im gonna wait till they start paying me to play their games.

 

[phil_t98]

Funny how many threads over the last year or two have been made about game pass ruining gaming but as usual when sony do it they are heroes

 

[Shmunter]

Get onto twitch and show your goodies, they will pay

How do you jump to that conclusion

 

[TLZ]

This is Sander. Dude's not a Sony fanboy.

[FranXico]

No thanks.

Funny how nobody noticed the copy pasta.
