Nice! I've been waiting for TGC 2019 to hit a good sale, great addition.

Is TGC gonna be like NBA 2K vs EA PGA? Nice to see 2K getting into the golf action. Will definitely be trying this out, haven't played a golf game since the Tiger Woods PGA games back early/mid 00's. Will be weird to not hear Feherity and McCord commentating. They were brilliant.

The Golf Club 2 had a lot of potential except the putting was ridiculously hard. I could be on par on the green and finish +8 because it was like putting on ice. I heard 2019 scaled it back a bit but still supposed to tough. The clubhouse is great and making your own course is class. Heads up, it's like the dark souls of golf

Oh interest has suddenly waned... When I hear that attached to anything, I take it to basically mean it's bastard hard for the average Joe, and while I consider myself a bit above average, I prefer the pace and effort of average Joe these days!

I'll still give it a go, would like to get right into a golf game again. Been ages since I attempted to complete all the tours and challenges of yore. Think I only ever managed it in one of the TW games. Good times. There was a lot of Southern Comfort involved at the time! It was also around the time some pubs had that PGA Tour arcade cabinet with the ball for taking shots.

Whats the PC app like to play on? Thinking of getting ps now on the PC to play Spider-Man. I'd be looking at using an xbox controller and a mapper app to map the touch pad to my keyboard space bar. Anyone any experience with this?

Sorry forgot to ask one more thing, can you use the app on multiple accounts or does each account need it's own subscription?

18-04-2020 11:35am

Dang it. It needs a wired 360 controller. I have a wireless with a play and charge but apparently the cable just charges, controls still go wireless.

So that would mean €68 for a DS4 controller. €45 for the service is fair enough... but that comes to over €100 just to play Spider-Man... n'ah.

WarZoneBrother · 18-04-2020 3:35pm

45euro now for 12 months new customers only..... I just started the trial last week and can not buy this, I've never paid for a PS Now subscription, would have bit the bullet at that price..

Discount is until 29 April so hopefully you'll be able to get it when your trial runs out?

Runs out in 2 days, ohh that's how it works I taught it was only if you never had a subscription?..

That's my reading of it. From their T&C "must not have an active PlayStation™Now subscription or trial at the time when the Applicable Product is purchased;" so fingers crossed you be grand in 2 days

New games for May are Rainbow Six Siege, Evil Within 2 and Get Even

J. Marston · 05-05-2020 1:36am

Evil Within is an overlooked series. Quality action/survival horror games.

Having a gander at this and even just to get a months worth of games until TLOU 2 comes out, a tenner is looking tempting at getting to play The Golf Club 2019, Resi Revelations 1 & 2, Deadlight, Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Spec Ops The Line, Everybody's Golf PS3 and Mafia 2.

jface187 · 16-05-2020 6:07pm

Got the year's sub on discount. Played Prey. Never would had bought it as always seem like a horror game to me. There is Horror elements but more like Bioshock. Great game worth the 45 euro just for this one game.

J. Marston · 16-05-2020 7:42pm

I'm subscribed until 21/5/20 but it's telling me I need to subscribe to play games.

I select a game in PSNow, it'll bring me to the PSNow subscription page with free trial, 1 month, 3 month and yearly options. When I click one it says I'm already subscribed.

Anyone experience anything similar?

Niska · 02-06-2020 11:24am

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFjuBSfH3BE

(I checked the first 3 on the PS Store on the PS4 and they have the play on PS NOW button, but they are not NOW just yet).

ronano · 02-06-2020 12:00pm

Good additions, service irks me with its game removal, I don't want to be pressured to play Spiderman

JimBurnley · 02-06-2020 4:25pm

Above is Japanese, if I'm reading internet correctly the 8 new EU games are

Dishonoured 2,
Nascar Heat 4,
Metro Exodus,
Tales of Zestiria,
Pacman Championship Edition 2,
God Eater 2,
11-11 Memories Retold,
Malicious Fallen.

Potential-Monke · 02-06-2020 10:26pm

Oh nice, I'll be giving God Eater 2 a go, nearly picked it up a few times. Might try Dishonored 2 again. Didn't play much of it when it came out, didn't grab me at the time, and I had enjoyed the first one.

Had an eye on D2 and Metro exodus, and 11-11 could be interesting, defo worth a bash. A good month!

JimBurnley · 07-07-2020 4:31pm

July games:

Watch Dogs 2
Street Fighter V
Hello Neighbor
Infinite Minigolf
The Turing Test

Potential-Monke · 07-07-2020 7:01pm

Speaking of SFV, I've downloaded it and immediately changed the dialogue to Japanese (as it fits the mouth movements, and everything sounds better in Japanese). Playing through the story modes, and those feckin pop up notifications keep covering the subtitles. Anyone know if you can turn them off/move their position? I had a look at settings but can't see anything. Terrible oversight if you can't.

JimBurnley · 04-08-2020 10:12am

August games in Japan are Doom, Dead Cells and Hitman 2. Expect us to get the same but an extra one for Doom as that's already on EU PSnow

marcbrophy · 04-08-2020 6:09pm

Greedfall, Dead Cells and Hitman 2

JimBurnley · 04-08-2020 6:31pm

A few lesser known games too:
• Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid
• AO Tennis 2
• WRC 8: World Rally Championship
• Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr
• Pure Farming 18

Probably most looking forward to Dead Cells. Decent month overall

JimBurnley · 01-09-2020 4:39pm

September PSnow games:

Resident Evil 7 biohazard is available until November 30, 2020.
Final Fantasy XV is available until March 1, 2021.
WWE 2K19 permanently.
Observation permanently.

Question.

My broadband can be sketchy so streaming isn't really a viable option, can all games be downloaded and played offline or are the streaming only? Id like to play older titles like some of the fallout series.

The older games are the ones that can't be downloaded. PS3/PS2 games are stream only.

El Gato De Negocios · 21-09-2020 10:21pm

****.

Cheers.

J. Marston · 21-09-2020 10:23pm

It is indeed ****.

Imagine my reaction when seeing the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on there and then seeing it's stream only. From delighted to sour in a second flat.

Actually you can download ps2 games, just ps3 which is stream only.
Although to be honest very few ps2 games in the library

Plenty of ps4 games in the library which you might class as "old" these days too. There should be 7 day free trial available, best way to find out is dive in and see if you like the choice for yourself

El Gato De Negocios · 21-09-2020 10:47pm

I signed up for the free trial and it was the older games like fallout that piqued my interest tbh.

F1ngers · 24-09-2020 3:38pm

Tried signing up for the free trial, getting error ws-43689-0 since yesterday.
Ah well, maybe tomorrow it will work.

weiland79 · 25-09-2020 12:53pm

I signed up for the free trial and fired up Batman Arkham City. It's the origianal PS3 version and not the upgraded PS4 one.

:mad:

ronano · 27-09-2020 12:54am

Anyone recommend 'hidden gems' of ps now?

Got a response from Sony about this:

Error code WS-43689-0 indicates that this account is unable to add the trial as it is linked to activity that goes against our Terms of Service.

Only thing I can think of is I game share with my OH and son, so 3 PS4s, instead of 2.

That would be fairly mean out of them to flag that.

Kingp35 · 06-10-2020 9:53am

Brilliant, I've been waiting on Days Gone to come to PS Now.

Potential-Monke · 06-10-2020 9:29pm

Yeah, got Days Gone when it came out but traded in a few days later as it just wasn't doing it for me. I wanted to try again but was reluctant to spend money, so was waiting for it to come on PS Now. I knew it would be soon anyway with the PS5 trailer showing it as a Plus game for PS5. I'll probably still wait to play it on the PS5 though, and at least then I'll have it for good instead of just a few months.

They actually made a change after earlier announcement, BPM and Steel Rats gone, in comes Rad. Never heard of any before today tbh, I had looked up Steel Rats and thought it worth a bash so that's a bit of a shame, won't be losing sleep over it mind you

The initial announcement was for Japan so looks like Europe and US got different indie games

Is there anywhere to get 12-month codes discounted? I can see on CDKEYS they have all other countries except Ireland
