Ps Now on PC

JJimmyJ · 10 May 2018 at 19:46

Hello,
Apologies if this is in wrong section, but as it's via pc I thought this would be here.
Has anyone used this on pc, if so, any good?
Always wanted to play last of us, heavy rain and a few others. Plus it looks like they're adding more PS4 games.
Thoughts?

I played through the entirety of the last of us using it. It was ok.

I didn't know about this. I've also wanted to play The Last of Us and Heavy Rain so this is interesting news. Thanks.

Cheers, good info.
What's the saving like? I'm a bit of a scummy saver due to limited play time and kids! I assume you can't just save at any point?

From what I remember, the save system followed the same mechanic as the original version; a check point system. It was pretty good though.

I tried it out a while ago and found everything great except one thing, the resolution....... 720P wasn't nice, although it might look better now that I have an OLED TV and sit about 8 feet back from it as opposed to using it on my LCD monitor and sitting about 2 feet away from it..

Hmmm, good point. Maybe the PS4 games will play better as I assume they will be 1080p.
I think I'll maybe give the free trial a run out. Nothing to lose

Instead of playstation now why cant playstation just use their own store like Microsoft do so we can buy the game on both PC and Playstaion and that way we can choose what we want to play it on without any subscription of $20 a month?.
