I am curious to see what the lag is like, if any.

I was looking at it the other day and was surprised to find that you can't actually buy any of the games. You can only rent them. Was that common knowledge because I was kind of shocked by that???

it's the internet. You could be hard wired with a 100 Mbps upload connection, but there will ALWAYS be lag. However, I have not seen huge spikes in lag when I played PS Now. It was very miniscule.

Game selection was terrible to start. May be better now

Lag really isn't a problem, it's the ridiculous prices

They were trying to rent games for 4 hours for 3.99, but I've heard they dropped it down to 1.99 still though, who rents a game for 4 hours?

I understand that, but if they are able to somehow work out a decent pricing system, would the lag/delay still be a deal breaker?

Could you play FPS games with it?

It's not bad at all, played the Beta with a friend and we played some co op online Dead Island Riptide and it was pretty fun and played well.

I think they should only have a 7 day and 30 day option. The week long prices are cheaper than Blockbuster was, and I don't think people will have as much to complain about.
