Pretty neat news. Any chance that this is the first step towards putting Sony first party titles on PC like Microsoft? Pc gaming is looking better and better.
I doubt it. It's a natural fit for Microsoft, which has the advantage of owning one of the biggest PC operating systems in existence. Depending on how much Sony likes the market, though, I suppose, it could be possible if the stars align and they lock down a deal with a platform.

I don't think it's something we'll see this gen, but many years down the road.

I do wonder how much this will appeal to PC gamers. All the multiplat games are pretty much on PC already to cheaply download - not stream. Biggest boon is the few PS exclusives.

Now that NOW is coming to PC (with all its technical limitations), you know one game that’s actually a great fit? Ni No Kuni. It's a PS3-exclusive Ghibli RPG, doesn’t need 1080/60, and lag doesn’t really hurt it. It's a great game.
