US PlayStation Plus extra/premium list is now up
- Thread starter Bishop89
- Start date
I gave in and upgraded to premium because of FOMO. I streamed ac: Valhalla and resistance 3. The image quality on both was a big step down, but the controls didn't feel too sluggish. There was some weird artifacting but it wasn't too distracting.
wait, they capped it?
what about who has PS Now before the new service and have Plus until 2025?
still capped?
People who never before subscribed to PS Now about to find out how much worse this can be.
Imagine this but with a service that has 700 games on it that you can play at your leisure rather than two a month. Yeah...
They got rid of Katamari Forever.
It was on Now quite literally forever. And it's gone now.
The unimaginable bastards.
For real. That and the Sly Collection being gone is a real bummer.
So strange that some stuff got unceremoniously delisted, considering Premium's PS3 selection is essentially a rebranded PS Now
White Knight Chronicles*
White Knight Chronicles II*
Wait. Can i download and play these? or are they streaming
The * next to a game name means it's a PS3 game, and thus only streaming
Ahhh. That's a shame :(
I might try the streaming anyways since it's not exactly a twitch shooter game.
Yep, and the first game I tested and the only one I could get streaming, Fantavision, STILL doesn't work with an XInput controller because they mapped start/select to the touchpad instead of the start/select buttons. Can't progress past the start screen.
I don't think a rollout of this size has ever gone perfectly for any company. The fact that it's not a complete disaster is kind of surprising to me.
Maybe they're trying to reflect the real world ebay price.
Inflation. $39.99 in 1997 is $9,999 in 2022, games should cost that much.
Thank you.
I am also surprised. I have been using PlayStation's online offerings since I first used a nickel to screw the PS2 network adapter onto my console to play SOCOM. Those early days were expected to be rough, but the troubles I've had with partying up, using voice chat, etc. on PSN in recent years have been (IMO) inexcusable. "Garbage" might have been a bit hyperbolic, but I always assume their online stuff is going to be more problematic than it should be in the modern era.
capped as in 150 is the most they will charge to upgrade to premium. Before they capped it it would be like $600 to upgrade an account with 10 years of plus. Now even if you have 10 years it only cost 150 to upgrade all of it
I AM BREAD
This has been worth it.
For real, downloading Intelligent Qube, Returnal, and Red Dead Redemption II first.

Oh you might be right then, I haven't tested any PS3 games on PC yet. I streamed Tokyo Jungle on PS5 last week and the macroblocking was really bad, just assumed it was because it was lower bitrate 720p. Is it just for PS3 games that natively supported 1080p maybe?
I only have to pay $36 for the year for Extra... and I get access to Spiderman. So I guess that covers the cost. Plus Im excited to play Stray for "free"
Just very curious to see when we can expect more and what this will look like in the coming months.
Like Horizon... how much longer until it appears on Extra? Ill assume at least a year. I have no interest in paying premium price to access older games, though Id be interested in a select few if they had at least 60 FPS. But Im not that big of a gamer anymore to waste time going through a back catalog.

Wonder if Caligula Effect Overdose is any good.
There's a lot here that I had my eye on but didn't want to pay for them, so I'm really satisfied for the time being.
Or apparently $9,999 to bypass that lol

I really like how Microsoft handled BC titles, in that once they were added to the program, if you had purchased them before they would automatically appear in your library. I'm hoping that same functionality is planned by Sony for the future but just not yet implemented.
Now it's a bit of a pain, as I have to search the store for specific games I've purchased to download. I'm speaking specifically about the PS4, as I don't have a PS5.

If it was, wouldn't it just say unavailable? There are other things on the store you can't buy individually, but they just don't let you buy it, not have some jacked up price.
yeah they're not upscaling anything. But if the game ran at 1080p on PS3, it'll be 1080p streaming to your PS4 and PS5 (and presumably PC too but I can't personally confirm that). I think it was just around this time last year that they upgraded PS3 streaming from 720p.
I mean, they have 6 Final Fantasy games on the service right now. Just not 7R. Also quite a few PS3 era JRPGs that are of varying quality. I wouldn't be surprised if Persona or FF7R show up here eventually considering they've already been part of PS+/PS+ Collection (vanilla P5).
Because PS3 emulation is still incredibly difficult even with powerful hardware.
Well this sucks trying too stream Dark Sector and it just bugs out and sends me back to the Home Screen. So far streaming seems decent not the best picture quality but it works. First time trying it.
It works for PS3 and PS4 games, so you'd be streaming the PS4 version of Miles.
I think it's some kind of display error. Where are you seeing that price. In the PS app it just says that it's available with premium subscription.
I can't say I have had the same experiences as you, but it could be a NAT issue. Or maybe just bad luck.
Thanks! Guess I'll take a crack at it eventually since it's "free" at least. I remember one of the two was a good one, just couldn't remember which one lol
Does the premium tier only give access to classic games and game trials? They're not going to add any PS4/PS5 games that are exclusive to that tier right?
There are some good classic games I'm interested in, but I think I'd rather buy them outright if I want them than subscribe to the higher tier service.

The list doesn't do anything for me just yet, but I certainly believe it will change.
I hate that you can't straight out buy certain games though. That really sucks that they are behind a service.

You think it's worth going through part 1 to get to part 2 or just skip it?
