You can now play a selection of PlayStation 4 games directly through your PC. Changes made to Sony’s PlayStation Now game streaming service means PS4 support is now included alongside PlayStation 3. To kick things off Sony has a line-up of 20 games that can be streamed straight to your PC, including a few PlayStation 4 exclusives.
The list of games is a little bit guff, truth be told, but it is the first time PC players will be able to get their hands on Killzone: Shadow Fall, God of War 3 Remastered and Dead Nation. All three of them I’d say are worth playing. The rest are all multi platform titles so there seems little point in streaming them through this service.

At the moment there are over 500 games available on PS Now, which is a pretty decent haul. The vast majority are PS3 games but it does give us some idea of where Sony is headed with PS4 support on the service.
If you want to give PS Now a go then it’s free for a week’s trial, or it’s $9.99 for the month / $99.99 for a year. With that you get access to every game on the service, and any new titles that get added. The downside is that you will be subject to all the vagaries of streaming, so depending on your internet connection you may experience so visual compromises or input lag. I gave it go last year on what was then a 14MB connection and it worked a charm though, it was pretty much indistinguishable from playing on an actual PS3.
