Sony's Cloud Gaming Service Is PlayStation Now [UPDATED]

Cool!

@grantheaslip: Yeah I think you're right. For certain RPGs with time based combat (Final Fantasy XIII) this system would probably not be ideal or even a good way to play. Other games would work well though, like Resonance of Fate.

This could be an awesome thing for Vita owners if it works as advertised :). Now the Vita just needs a UI overhaul...

@mooseymcman: I think you are right.

I also think that latency issues will make it really bad outside the US.

My question is. Will this work on my PS3 as well as a Vita and PS4? My Vita needs replaced and I do not have a PS4 yet.

I have an half answer to that: games which you have bought in physical form won't be given to you for free in Playstation Now.

LAME

I'm interested in the support on phones and tablets, but I wonder if they are smart enough to remember that their controllers are Bluetooth and work on those devices? I'd love to play Playstation stuff on my phone, but without controller support it would be trash.

If this will allow me to play Persona 4 Golden & Peesona 5 on my PS4... where do I sign up?

Wow that is quite compelling so long as they let you download and keep copies of your games.

The second my PS4 was plugged in my PS3 went back into its box so I can't wait to try this.

I missed out on a lot of AAA games on the PS3 that I would love to have the chance to try with this service.

If this works it could be a nail in the coffin for used games sales, I think I read that GameStop shares dropped whe the news came out.

PlayStationNow definitely feels like the Netflix of console gaming.

I saw on The Verge that you need to use a Dualshock 3 to play PS3 games on other devices. I really hope that doesn't mean that I need to do that when streaming a ps3 game to the ps4. That would suck. Dualshock 4 4 life.

@monstrouk: you can do that now.
