Versus

All these were on Gamepass..I think some still are.

Not sure if the partnership has anything to do with it, more about money than anything.

VersusDMC1379d ago

Well combined with FF7R,Intergrade, FFXIV,FFXVI and Forsaken exclusivity can i not surmise that the parnership is still going strong or strengthening?

thesoftware7301379d ago

Yeah, I get what your trying to say, but putting old games on a streaming service after it has been on other competing streaming services first and are pretty much available everywhere else, hardly indicates "Strengthenes " relationship.

The new games and exclusives you named definitely show the strength of their relationship, but in direct context to this article and old games on PSnow, I dont think it applies the same. Its definitely to try to get more money rather than their relationship, which has been super tight since PS1..Sony even owns stock in SE, I'm sure they are and have been solid. Lol

VersusDMC1379d ago

Hey if you want to downplay that all those games are going on Now go ahead.

Rationalize it in your head that it is nothing all you want for what ever reason while bringing up the competition.

I just see it as a lot of Final Fantasy being advertized for Playstation and it continuing to be the best place to go for Final Fantasy.

thesoftware7301379d ago

Huh? What?

Dude, I in no way downplayed the games being on PsNow..I only pointed out facts as to why, them being added doesn't show this imaginary "Strengthening ". You mentioned..why would I not want them on PSNow, I played everyone of them already on original realese and the 12 remaster...I think they are wonderful games that every RPG fan should play..

You are a loon...

VersusDMC1379d ago

You say it's not strengthening and say you're not downplaying it? And you call me a loon...great job with the insults instead of letting your "facts" do the talking. Class all around.

Trend continues, leaves gamepass hits PSNow.

roadkillers1379d ago

NOW cant touch gamepass. Where are all the Sony First Party games?

Lexreborn21379d ago

Righhttt, considering we are still waiting for 1st party games to hit Gamepass I think it’s highly touchable.

And if you understand the comparison it’s been an exchange back and forth between Now and gamepass with 3rd party games. If you subscribed to both you’d know that.

Red dead was on pass back in March. Hit Now last month a month or two after leaving pass. All of the Final Fantasy games are leaving pass… same ones are now hitting Now.

Yeah…. Take your head out the dirt and you will see the trends.

roadkillers1379d ago

Head in the dirt lol, Final Fantasy XIII is just hitting gamepass... Where are you grabbing this stuff?

scofios1379d ago (Edited 1379d ago )

Where are all the Xbox First Party games?
ah yeah forgotten that we must wait til 2078 they just strarted with first party studios

Lexreborn21379d ago

Final fantasy 7 and 9 are off of game pass. Now they are on now…. Pretty sure 8 and 12 will expire soon then only 10 and 13 will be on game pass.

So, pay attention next thing you know the yakuza games will all hit ps now and leave game pass. It’s a simple trend of competition between services.

roadkillers1379d ago

@Chinchilla

I stand corrected. A lot of those titles were not an option when I was using PSNow (God of War PS4 being the biggest). Not sure when they added it again, but my subscription is still valid.. I'll give a look. My apologies

Not really" head in the dirt" roadkillers because all the games did leave Gamepass. I guesd you wouldn't know that because you don't know anything about the service.

nommers1379d ago

Hmm, this could mean we might see something FF related at the Playstation showcase or even TGS.

Pixel remasters/FF16 releSe date?

TGG_overlord325d ago

I agree, I like SH3 the most though.

Cacabunga323d ago

Auto Modellista will always be one of my favorite racers of all time..

gold_drake325d ago

id throw haunting ground into the mix. it still looks fantastic.

but i still dont quite understand why we never got a dragon quest 8 remaster for ps4. even the damn 3ds got one.

OtterX323d ago

I'd add Rogue Galaxy, Shadow of the Colossus.

Scissorman323d ago

Silent Hill 3 was straight up sorcery. It has better hair animation than most modern games, which is wild to me.

Venoxn4g322d ago

I would throw in MGS3 as well

It's so disappointing that to this day, I have not seen a game match what BLACK offers in an FPS.

ApocalypseShadow613d ago

Shame isn't it. I thought we'd be at a point of destructible backgrounds, objects, pyrotechnics etc in shooters. I sold many a copy in the demo unit when I managed a franchise Game Crazy back then. But I stopped playing shooters because they didn't evolve. Heavy weapon. Shoot a wall or glass. Nothing happens. Lol. Except for Killzone 2. I enjoyed that.

But then I woke and remembered it's EA. EA didn't care really. They just wanted to kill competition from Criterion and Burnout. And own Renderware to profit from as many developers used that engine. Only thing was that developers ran as fast as they could away from EA to Unreal Engine and its pop in and Vaseline graphics. Shame on EA. And then they bought Dice for Frostbite. Evil busters.

Anyway, too many PS2 games to count. Some of my personal faves being DMC, Genji, Bujingai, Blood Will Tell, Onimusha, Way of the Samurai, Japanese Berserk, Japanese Macross game that blew away the US Robotech game, RAD, Castlevania Lament of Innocence.... there's just too many. Let me stop. Lol

Cacabunga612d ago

Code Veronica
Dead or Alive 2 Hardcore
The Getaway
Time Crisis 3
Killzone
Mark of Kri
SSX

are some of my all times favorites missing on that list

shinoff2183612d ago

I've always Saud I'm not a fan of fps much , there's been some I really like and thought were really dope. Black falls into that category.

CoNn3rB612d ago

I would love nothing more than a remaster of the Jak series, including Jak X

Flawlessmic612d ago (Edited 612d ago )

The greatest console of all time !!!!

The last console from when gaming was pure, games didn't take 5 years to release, no online only, no half finished games, no mtx.

Ps2 was just banger after banger after banger.

It will always be my favourite.

sagapo612d ago

No Timesplitters in the list??

FinalFantasyFanatic612d ago

This is a really good list, pretty happy with the choices here.
