Sony announces some current and classic games coming to PS Plus revamp in June

Foxi4 · May 17, 2022

I think I’ll be good to go with Deluxe, I’m not aching for PS3 streaming, but the download list looks enticing.

Dark_Phoras · May 17, 2022

I already have those I like in my own library, so this service maybe isn't for me. PlayStation seems to be saving some games for later.

Yeah sorry Sony, Steam Deck is gonna be my go-to for everything PS3/Vita and older. My PS5 is just for enhanced PS4 games and PS5 games, so it'd be nice if they started making more of the latter rather than trying to charge me monthly to play games I already own physical copies of.

My family will definitely like this, might have to get it just for them alone heh!

Personally i'm not too crazy over it though, as i'll have a steam deck for many of these games very soon just like Xzi.

I think it's cool to see relatively obscure titles like Enslaved and Puppeteer on the PS3 list, I'm excited to try those.

I do think it's really weird that certain remasters are locked behind a higher tier, though. You think all PS4 games would be treated equally

If it weren't for Xbox this'd never happen. Some good came of it.

Still, let's see how it ultimately compares to GamePass.

That was a fun Uncharted-esque game you kind of play once and never again. At least was for me.

Said it before but, I wish there was a cheaper tier than "essential" ...none of the existing/new tiers are even close to value for money.
"Free" shit I'm never going to play is no incentive. Titles I can already play natively on the systems they were designed for but emulated and/or streamed to current hardware is no incentive. Two hour game trials is also no incentive.

Just charge me £20 - £30 for online play, cloud saves, and party chat/messaging... looks like my PSN sub could be going the same way my XB Gold did a decade ago.

Why no PS2 games? I thought they were gonna be included in the service as well, seems odd that not a single game is from that system.

Yeah, people need to realise Sony are terrible in terms of how they treat their customers (I'm not trying to say Microsoft are great). They always drag their feet and bitch and moan, but pull some of the most terrible sh*t themselves, hypocrites.

If it wasn't for Nintendo being over 2 generations behind in all aspects, Sony would be a joke. Microsoft need to ensure their first party games are polished too going forward. Personally I'd like them to develop some new or more risky IP. I've never been a fan of any of their brands (original, not the newly purchased IP's).

Regardless, Microsoft have literally forced all the big corps to make consumer friendly changes. I worry though, with Microsoft being so far ahead in these areas, they may begin introducing or forcing things we don't want or need.

my PS4 had been collecting dust for the past few months but now I’ll probably play some of these games!
Ghost of tsushima and Death Stranding - I was waiting for these two.

Meanwhile Jak and Daxter has already been reverse-engineered and ported to PC.

Aren't Sony's PS2 remasters on PS4 just upscale and add trophies?

They're listed under PlayStation Remasters and it's just the same old ones that have already been available on PS4 for years.

If Essential is the exact same as the current PS+ then why it's more expensive?
I'm paying $49 per year for PS+ and Essential is $59?
I don't like this.

As stated, those lists are not complete. There's like 700 some games in the PS Now library. There will be more games at launch and also regularly added after launch.

A bump in price, like Netflix is doing.

I never liked paying to play online, so I didn't.

Stone_Wings · May 17, 2022

edit: nevermind. lol

GothicIII · May 17, 2022

Could somebody explain to me how the higher tiers work, please?

Is it like the essentials tier, where you buy the game for free and have it in your library forever (as long as the subscription lasts) and after a month other games become available while the older ones vanish?

Or is it like a game pass, were these games are always available and the library is growing every month?

I read the news and the official sources but they do not provide a concrete answer...
