thegirlruka Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I haven't seen any forum posts for this yet, but for those of you who have a subscription to PS Now there was an announcement on the blog today that 5 new games are being added. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2015/03/02/playstation-now-subscriptions-new-for-march-2015/ Just a fair warning: don't scroll down to the comments section of the blog unless you want to see a lot of people complaining about the IGC for March not being announced yet. Back in January we were excited to finally unveil the PlayStation Now subscription service and we have been ecstatic with the feedback so far. In February, we added a round of additional games to the service. For those of you unfamiliar with the subscription, you can choose from two subscription plans on your PS4 — monthly for $19.99, or a three-month package for $44.99 (about $15 per month) for unlimited game streaming to all your PlayStation Now compatible devices. Today I’m excited to let you all know which games will be added to the PlayStation Now subscription in March! inFAMOUS 2 We all know you enjoyed running around virtual Seattle as Delsin in inFAMOUS: Second Son on PS4, but have you seen the world through Cole MacGrath’s eyes? For those of you that missed the second installment of inFAMOUS, now is the time to catch up. Twisted Metal What would PlayStation Now be without a visit from our dear friend Sweet Tooth? Relive the vehicular carnage as you stream the latest iteration in the Twisted Metal franchise. R-Type Dimensions Do you like to kick it old school? Then R-Type Dimensions is for you. A lovely package of both R-Type 1 and 2 with a new feature that allows you to shift between original and newly revamped graphics — R-Type Dimensions is still the extremely challenging, side-scrolling shooter you remember. Alone in the Dark: Inferno Ever wonder what it would be like to wake up in the middle of a literal and theoretical nightmare? Battle hellish forces and try and piece together your mysterious past while saving New York City from doom in this adventure horror game. Operation Flashpoint: Red River Boasting 4-player co-op in this geopolitical shooter, Operation Flashpoint: Red River delivers the full intense modern day shooter experience. Team up with your friends (or play solo with complete squad AI) to take on the unique modes. Whether it’s playing as two PlayStation legends, reliving some old memories, or engaging in high paced action adventure, March’s additions to the PlayStation Now subscription offer something for everyone. Don’t forget, if you haven’t tried the subscription yet, there is a free 7-day trial waiting for you on PlayStation Store. What’s your favorite game in the PS Now subscription catalog? Let us know in the comments. So what are your thoughts on the PS Now database and cost for subscriptions? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DistantFox Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Am I the only one upset that they call him Sweet Tooth now instead of Needles Kane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naoto Shirogane Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I think it's a great thing that more games are being added to PlayStation Now so when I buy the subscription, I'll have plenty of games to play along with games from PS Plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomoko Kuroki Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) Anyone that has played any games using PS now knows moreless the standard Internet speed to the service be worth it?, I know that with my actual speed the service is going to be useless when finally hits my country, but I would like to know how far away I am to be able to enjoy it. Aside from speed let me just tell you about the MB usage. In general I take up 4-8 GB a day. When I played on PS now, I played about 6-8 hours straight, and my usage for those 3 days was 25-30GB PER day, so lets say 90GB of internet in 3 days. I think ps now is cool, but it eats the hell out of your internet. Edited March 2, 2015 by Tomoko Kuroki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never had any problems with timing out or quality at these speeds though. Aside from speed let me just tell you about the MB usage. In general I take up 4-8 GB a day.

I think ps now is cool, but it eats the hell out of your internet. It does use a huge amount of data. One definitely shouldn't get PS Now if one doesn't have a truly unlimited amount of data without any data caps.

By this I mean that only the beta version of ps now is allowed to be downloaded on to an EU model. Edited March 2, 2015 by theguytom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thegirlruka Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Oh, well that's ballocks Think of it this way, when it finally gets to your region there should be less bugs. I think their reasoning is that there aren't enough servers outside of North America so they think that players will time out too often. Either that or they want to see how their servers can handle just one region before bringing the service to other regions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomoko Kuroki Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 So this PS now subscription thing is it only on ps4 I can subscribe ? o.O I think it's worth it but like I said the streaming usage of your internet is crazy, can't play everyday forget it. I think US has a plan for unlimited download, in canada, where I am anyways "unlimited" is something like 250GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't name any, but it might be something to look into if you wanted to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't name any, but it might be something to look into if you wanted to do so. I have Unlimited internet and I have no issues, although some days I feel as though I am being throttled by my ISP. But my households general internet usage is roughly 500-600GB a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
