I expected this to be posted on Giant Bomb's front page since its probably the first big piece of industry news for 2015 but with Patrick gone I guess we are back to less news and very quiet mondays.

So this jist is that Sony will be offering a subscription option for Playstation Now on January 13th. One month costs $20 but you can save $5 a month by paying for three months at a time ($45). It does not look like individual game rentals will be disappearing yet.

I haven't been following the availability of games on PS Now that closely but it seems like the games at launch are very similar to the games that are available right now on the rental service. Doesn't seem like they are trying to license a bunch of new games for this launch.

Pricing seems appropriate. Obviously more expensive than a Netflix subscription and a bit more expensive than your average MMO subscription. This service cannot be cheap to run so this pricing is in a theoretically acceptable range.

This seems like a service that is an okay deal if you did not own a PS3 and want to play some of that stuff, even though the library could use a lot more fleshing out. If you've had a PS3 and a PS Plus scription for a while you probably already have access to a lot of these games. If you no longer have your PS3 then the library of games available is probably a bit too spotty at the moment and its missing the newer last-gen only stuff like Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel or Persona 4 Arena Ultimax that could make a service like this interesting.

Good start but could use a lot more fleshing out. Will be interesting when they branch out past the PS3.

I'll stick with my PS3 and PS4 combo, what does Sony think i'm made of money? Paying $20 a month to play PS3 games with lag and poor resolution.>_> Silly.

Sounds better than that godawful rental system, but I'm still not interested.

Seems Ok i guess, those games probably cost 5-10 dollars if you buy them in a store. I can see myself paying for a month later on just to play a couple games but not sure why anyone would want to continuously be subscribed to this.

I just got a free PS3 from my cousin with a good number of games and so I do not need a streaming service. I am happy owning a PS3 and a PS4.

Well that's a big step in the right direction.

Did the free 7 days and I liked what I saw. It worked way better than I thought it would but the 20 bucks a month seems a little steep on top of my ps plus subscription.
