[Rumor] Sony developing game pass competitor; code name “Spartacus “. Merging PS+/Now.

You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song

I'll handle all the speculation so nobody else has too

You can't compete with gamepass. You either offer the same experience (with minor differences) or you fall short.

Now 99% of all games are MULTIPLAT so duplicating what gamepass does isn't impossible. 1st party games are better on Xbox this gen so far and Sony seems to be content with giving you more of the same imo. TBC on which is better but 2021 was year of Xbox

Now looking at this tweet, it's very vague, doesn't say what's included with each tier but they letting y'all know they wanna include access to PS1,2,psp games as a possible feature except that's a HORRIBLE idea. Everything that was exclusive back then been MULTIPLAT.

That would be like Microsoft going "Get the 3rd tier of gamepass so you can play Xbox originals"

The truth is that 3rd tier will have 1st party day 1 PS5 games, they'll have all the older games too thanks to Microsoft azure. The service will not be as cheap as gamepass because they can't afford to do that, they not future proof (where did I hear that before???)

Sony stans will say it's worth it, I'll admit it's better than nothing. Starfield drops 11/11/22...

Meh this a nothing burger sounds like a rebooted psnow. No day one sony games makes this useless for me.

I expect the classic library to be the same games available in the ps3 store. Same ps3 games that have been remastered or are on ps now already.

This is essentially just merging psnow into psplus and adding legacy titles. It’s the disney plus formula. Opening up the vault and throwing all the classics on the service at once but big games are still gonna be full price like disney movies

Sony ain’t giving their new games away for free when they still sell over 10m copies. Just like disney ain’t streaming spiderman no way home for free.

Quality cost money. Microsoft is throwing their games on the service because they have to and most of their games are service oriented.

As someone who is using gamepass on 2 months free trial, this shyt is that good and I haven't had an Xbox since 360. Everyone is on that subscription wave because they see the big bucks boming but PS Now will need to get a whole lot better to compete.

Imagine copying an unprofitable business model

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Sony exclusives + Sony legacy titles, what more do you even need?

I’m honestly asking

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Imagine copying an unprofitable business model

They aren’t copying anything though, they are combining their services which existed long before gamepass. Adding legacy titles to it is the same thing nintendo did. Sony ain’t giving away Ragnarok and Horizon

Hilarious.

I just love reading you make up shyt

Sony games don't sell more than Microsoft games. I know, you don't like that truth but Drake doesn't sell physical, neither did tekashi 69 or Nikki Minaj.

Grounded has been played by more people than Spider-Man

Your game of the year candidate sold less than too human

The Sony games you're hyped for are PS4 games at heart. Remember when you was like they was lying about subscriptions and you couldn't properly do the math on 37.1% of 18 million = just shy of 25 million, remember that? That was before Halo and Forza and everything else, remember how y'all was like starfield was coming to PS5, elder scrolls/etc

Most Sony stans game of the year is Deathloop, a Microsoft game like Psychonauts 2.

So what's so special about Sony games again? Cuz not even Sony gamers care about Sony games, you included

Spoiler

Returnal says return to me

 

[THE 101]

People really wanna play musty ass PS1 and PS2 games?

 

[Obreh Winfrey]

Funny thing about this service is that it won’t have day one PS5 games on there but will still surpass Gamepass numbers day one

So you're saying Sony stans buy off hype and not substance ?
