PS Now is the exact same services aside from the fact that it's all older games isn't it? Plus + Now retail for cheaper then gamepass does it not? And yes I realize gamepass goes on sale all the time but still I'm comparing full MSRP for the sake of argument. I'd love it if Sony competed and we got first party /exclusives day 1 but it's not like what they're offering instead is horrible.

PS Now streams video of the games, which almost inevitably means button latency and fidelity downgrades if the internet connection is bad. Game Pass lets you download the game and run it on actual hardware, meaning that in the event of the internet going down you can still play it, and the only latency issues are confined to hardware and software issues, not visual lag.

PS Now has improved somewhat, but that's still a fatal flaw with the service. Game Pass runs the games natively. PS Now streams video of the game to you as you play it.
