Crap analogy.This is an exaggeration, but would you say the same if someone criticized you because restaurants were giving away shit sandwiches and you complained that it was made with shit?

Crap analogy.
This would be a valid point twenty years ago. Name me something in modern life that isn't subscription based...."According to PlayStation, even though PS Now is available on PS5, the service still only gives subscribers access to PS4, PS3, and PS2 games. "
lol....what? Is this for real? So if you have PS Now and download Marvel Avengers on your PS5,
The games are not free. They are part of a subscription that you pay for.
Some of you guys tend to make this shit a far bigger deal than it needs to be, and I don't understand why.Game Pass gets Outriders, PS Now gets Avengers.

I love free games. Some of my favourite experiences of last gen were the free games on gamepass. I have no issue with the service, I just take issue with how much money Microsoft use on the xbox division, yet fail to maximise their returns because of bad decision making.
Seriously though. I’d rather not have free games than this mediocrity. You’re paying for these games through a service. I find spending money on old and mediocre games as a service to be a waste of my money. I’d rather spend money as I see fit on games that I deem worthy of my money.
no it isnt. square clearly wants to put the game in a load of people hands so they can sell it with the help of spidermanI bought the game it sucks ass, was just pointing out that what Sony paid for won’t even be out when it’s on psnow. Seems like a dumb move
Well done for being part of small minority of people in the west. We're a rare breed. Most people rent cars, houses, holidays on a credit card, sky, Netflix, their phone, amazon prime, Gamepass.... the list goes on.Most things I own are not part of a subscription. I don't get what you are saying.
Regardless, a game service subscription is paid for and so none of the games are "free".
Update 2 (4/5/21) - Sony has additionally confirmed that both Marvel's Avengers and Borderlands 3 will be released on PS Now in their PS4 versions.
Update (4/5/21) - Square Enix has confirmed that this will indeed be Marvel's Avengers for PS4. However, subscribers will be able to transfer their save to the PS5 version if they choose to buy it.
Welp, that officially takes my hype to a big fat zeroNot sure if this was posted yet. PS4 Version only for Avengers.
Marvel's Avengers, Borderlands 3, and The Long Dark Join PlayStation Now This Week - IGN

Microsoft could be the king of this industry, like they used to be. They've just forgotten how to be succesful
I agree. Outside gamepass, my phone, audible and amazon prime I don't subscribe to anything.Honestly, no subscription service has works out for me except Disney + because I can play a ton of things for the kids that I’d prefer not to own. I find 95% of what’s on them unappealing and tend not to use them as a result.
IGN lInk has been updated.
Now confirmed all 3 games are the PS4 versions.
no it isnt. square clearly wants to put the game in a load of people hands so they can sell it with the help of spiderman
same for me, but i dont have kids and its pretty much wack. doesnt help when the falcon and winter soldier plus the new loki looks cheap as hell, is jarring after the high budget of the avengers moviesHonestly, no subscription service has works out for me except Disney + because I can play a ton of things for the kids that I’d prefer not to own. I find 95% of what’s on them unappealing and tend not to use them as a result.
are you Trippin? you the one who brought up spiderman. you need to take a chill pill. embarrass yourself... follow you own advicestop embarssing yourself Spider man was due out being of the year it’s been delayed indefinitely. The promise of spider man to sway mulitpalte user was just a lie, the game will be long dead and buried before Sony’s purchased content ever shows up. Can’t think of a bigger waste of money on such a shit product.
Its already confirmed, check my post a few above.I'm predicting some drama tomorrow when it's discovered that PS Now covers PS4 but not PS5, and the PS5 versions of Avengers and BL3 aren't available for download.
Sony's crappy cross-gen system means that if they allowed PS5 downloads there would be no way to transfer the save back and forth between download and streaming. Most people wouldn't want to do this anyway but I think Sony would see it as justification for only allowing the PS4 version to be downloaded.
There is no data but it basically not possible to Outriders to had more sales on Steam that others big titles from Square Enix like FFXV.
Just because the SteamDB is more focused in Online games doesn't make others games did not sell on Steam.
BTW since when Benji knows anything? He works for a distrital Best Buy and a lot of times his data was not accurate with the full NPD data that make him cry a lot of time saying he will stop to "talk about sales".
He said Series X was outselling PS5 in US at launch because it had more inventory lol
C'mon.
He started to cry and deleted the tweet and left ERA claiming he was being bullied when he was so off that was even laughable.
Yeap I’m talking Steam only.Outriders biggest launch on Steam not SE biggest launch overall. Outriders is SE's biggest launch on Steam only. Yes overall FF games had bigger launch. We talking about steam only here
Now confirmed all 3 games are the PS4 versions.

This is one of the many things Xbox got right with Smart Delivery.Even if you're only playing on PS4, there's a disconnect between the streamed version and the downloaded version of the game. If you stream the game, your save file goes into PS Now's cloud save area (not PS Plus's cloud save area--there is a difference), but if you download it and play to your PS4, it saves directly to your console's hard drive. If you want to transfer saves between the two, then you have to do so manually, using PS Plus's cloud save area as the go-between. Yes, this means this ability is only available if you have a PS Plus subscription, in addition to PS Now.
It's not a big deal, as most users probably won't be switching frequently between downloading and streaming for a particular game. It's still annoying for those who do, or even for those who initially stream a game once to give it a quick try (to see if they like the game enough to keep playing), and then download it for subsequent play sessions.
I don't own a PS5, but from what I've read, there are similar issues between games using the PS4 file system and the PS5 file system, even within the PS Plus cloud. This seems to be what you're describing above. There are multiple ways that Sony could solve this problem. Here are a couple:
The Long Dark is fantastic.
Why people should trust you ? What proof you got? Lot of other websites reporting same that Outriders biggest Steam launch for SE.Yeap I’m talking Steam only.
On the first days SteamSpy estimate was already over 220k units sold.
But because it was a single player offline game it didn’t entered the concurrent players stats.
Benji made up a claim and you guys were fooled by him.
This is one of the many things Xbox got right with Smart Delivery.
I know people thought it was dumb and a buzzword, but it really shows they were forward thinking on their delivery methods, when something so simple just works on one machine and can go so wrong on the other.
It's a bit late for all that now though.The funny thing is that Sony has used these techniques in the past. I could be wrong, but I believe there were even certain PS2 games that could read and import saved data from a related PS1 game.
I believe the problem is enforcement. Referring to the two methods I described, Sony simply failed to implement method #1. Method #2 seems to be an available option, but it's apparently left "up to the developer". Why wouldn't a developer use method #2 if it's available? I'm not sure, but maybe there's some difficulty in programming it in, or the developer has to pay some fee for cloud storage from Sony or provide it themselves. Those are just guesses on my part.
Sony needs to work on method #1, and then enforce either one or both of these methods in all future games that have separate PS4 and PS5 versions.
Read again the Eurogamer text please... no Benji bullshit claim.Why people should trust you ? What proof you got? Lot of other websites reporting same that Outriders biggest Steam launch for SE.
Why would Eurogamer like site will report it if there's no truth to it
Outriders launch dwarfs Marvel's Avengers
Outriders has launched big, although tech issues are hampering its release.People Can Fly's looter shooter hit over 100…www.google.com
Sorry, you can believe what you want but fact is all major websites reporting same, so i go with them
Despite server issues, Outriders is Square Enix’s biggest Steam launch ever
Launch day issues couldn't stop Outriders from hitting a massive player countwww.pcgamesn.com
Yea man it's weird that we are given PS4 version when competition literally hands out next-gen versions as well when they add their games to the list.
Yes, because PS Now doesn't support PS5 games yet.
Yeah but that is forcing players to schedule their gaming time around Sony's PS Now deal terms. I don't want to be forced to pick up Avengers now because hey, Sony is only giving it to me for the next 12 weeks. I pay a subscription so I can have an all I can eat buffet where I fill my plate in the order and at the rate that I want, not at the one dictated by the service constraints. GP does not even communicate how long a game will be on the service for, understandably so. It would be reinforcing the short rental perception among service users that many use to question the value.It's long enough for people to finish the campaign and the two expansions. If they want to continue to play the MP mode, then they'll have to buy the game.
Consdiering those games had free upgrades anyway I dont see any reason to now allow the ps5 version. Insane.Yea man it's weird that we are given PS4 version when competition literally hands out next-gen versions as well when they add their games to the list.
PS Now is primarily a streaming service. The server blades are running the actual system hardware and they’d need to be upgraded with PS5 hardware in order to support the system.Consdiering those games had free upgrades anyway I dont see any reason to now allow the ps5 version. Insane.
Not really an excuse to not allow the free upgrade for people who download vs stream.PS Now is primarily a streaming service. The server blades are running the actual system hardware and they’d need to be upgraded with PS5 hardware in order to support the system.
XCloud currently only streams on Xbox One S hardware, but MS is in the process of upgrading their server blades with XSX hardware.
Based on how the PS4 handled disc and digital games, it’s probably similar to that.Not really an excuse to not allow the free upgrade for people who download vs stream.

Sounds messy but would make sense considering my time with PS store. Since I game share with someone I couldnt even claim R&C on my account since his account was signed in.Based on how the PS4 handled disc and digital games, it’s probably similar to that.
On the PS4 if you had a disc game installed and then got the digital version (PS+ or buying it) you had to uninstall the disc install and reinstall the digital in order to launch it without the disc in the drive because the system recognized the two as different versions of the game.
It’s likely that PS Now is just a THIRD version of the game and the downloadable executable isn’t eligible for the upgrade as it‘s technically a unique version of the game as far as the system is concerned.
No. If you own a PS4 game that has a free PS5 update you have to download the PS5 version manually and if you're not paying attention you can have the ps4 and ps5 versions of the same game installed.Doesn't downloading a PS4 version of a game that has a PS5 update automatically update it to the PS5 version on a PS5?
That's fucking stupid. But it also explains how I got two versions of Destiny 2No. If you own a PS4 game that has a free PS5 update you have to download the PS5 version manually and if you're not paying attention you can have the ps4 and ps5 versions of the same game installed.
