I'm probably going to pick up Dirt 5 Year One Edition. My trial from April is still working, but I get extra content and more importantly the free PS5 upgrade if I buy it now.

You'll have Dirt 6 before a PS5.

You're probably right. I wonder if they'll have more availability for the holidays.

More like holidays in 2022.

I'm fine with that as long as I can find an Xbox Series X before that.

By the way, I got a PS Now sub when it was on sale with Plus a while back. It works really well, sort of turns your PS4 into a PS3 if you like, and you can download most all of the PS4 games and play them from your system. The bump to 1080p is pretty nice. For about 4 bucks a month I think it's a decent pickup.

Do you have to stream all the PS3 games? I thought they moved away from that and let you download and run everything locally now.

Yeah, the PS3 games are stream only. They run via emulation. No capability for your PS4 to do so.

Yeah, and you connect your DS4 via Bluetooth.

I just took a look at the PS Now page and didn't realize they had so many games available. Sony should offer some type of "Ultimate" package that includes PS+ and PS Now for a discounted price. I'm tempted to try it out for a month. I know my younger son would find a ton of stuff on there to play. How is the streaming with your gigabit internet service? Any lag?

It's very smooth and stable for me. And yeah, a Now/Plus bundle with some extra goodies would be ideal.

I'm going to buy a month next weekend to give it a test run. I made the mistake of mentioning it to my younger son who now desperately needs it even though he never heard of PS Now before this morning.

I wish they did that for PS Now. I'd pay $30 to try it for a year.

Finally got around to ordering a month of PSNow. Unfortunately, I won't be able to try it myself until my son goes to bed. I'll most likely start with Arkham Origins. I want to see how it looks and plays compared to the Xbox 360 version.
