Playing F-Zero with friends online through the Switch has me hoping that we'll get something similar for this service as well. It's great that there are almost 400 classic games getting their chance in the spotlight again.īut I'm also feeling much trepidation from it. It's a silent acknowledgment from Sony that this should have been on its consoles as far back as the PlayStation 4. So am I happy with the announcement? Almost. Its blog post spoke of 340 additional games to this tier, but while I hope this includes rare classics like Evil Zone, Rosco McQueen, B-movie, and Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles, there's a chance it could be filled up with much more forgettable games from the past. From Ape Escape to Ridge Racer, if they're not able to be converted into free downloadable purchases from looking at our previous purchase history, Sony could have another job on its hands to justify its actions.įinally, there's been no list as yet as to what games will be included in this plan. There's also the question of the classic games that previous PS3 owners, myself included, had bought back in the day. To pay a monthly price, or a higher one if you choose to pay yearly, for access to Sony's back catalog in just one tier, says to me that the company still has a way to go before it recognizes how important retro gaming is. This is the only tier that will let you play Sony's games from the PS1 and PS2 eras. There's three tiers, with the highest, called PlayStation Plus Premium, priced at $17.99 / £13.49, with Australian pricing yet to be confirmed. However, Sony is in danger of already confusing its users before the service has gone live.
