The service is particularly interesting to PC users, as a large number of the games which PSNow offers are PlayStation exclusives. For example, Final Fantasy XIII will need to be rented while BioShock Infinite, God of War III, and Batman: Arkham City are part of the subscription service. That, coupled with the price rise for PS Plus last month that Sony did not even bother to explain, has led to general discontent with the service. These include Heavy Rain, Tomb Raider, and Mafia II.

Finally, subscribers on PS Vita can download Amnesia: Memories. In honor of the launch on PC, a one year subscription for the service is now on sale for $99.99 (a 55 percent discount). Gamers will need to pay the subscription fee before they can play, however, which goes for $19.99 a month or $99.99 for one year. A wired Internet connection is recommended for the optimal experience.

With an incredible gaming library and a massive overlap of third-party titles, this list of must-play games was incredibly hard to compile.

However, unlike Xbox One’s Wireless Adaptor, this peripheral is Mac and PC-friendly.
