Sony bulking up streaming games service with a pile of legacy titles
The PlayStation Now streaming service, which offers access (via a la carte rentals or subscription) to a library of PlayStation 3 titles, has added a considerable quantity of games this week.
The more than forty new additions are what Sony calls “PS3 Console Exclusives,” a term which doesn’t make a lot of sense when looking at the list itself. It includes several titles, such as The Unfinished Swan, Journey, which have seen previous release on other PlayStation platforms other than PS3. Whatever they want to call them, there are some gems in the list, like White Knight Chronicles and the Game of the Year Edition of Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception.
The release of these games to the streaming service coincides with a promotional offer for a 12-month PlayStation Now subscription, which Sony is offering for $99.99, less than half of the regular price. The offer expires January 11.
