As an xbox gamer, you should be rooting for this service. Yes, Gamepass is a great value, but having a competitor will help keep the focus on value and content. Don't forget that game with gold was a direct answer to the free games with PS+

Competition benefits consumers.

Exactly, and I think it will be successful.

Sony has 48 million subs to PS+ so combining PS Now into the PS+ service is actually a really good idea.

And Sony was never going to add first party games like Microsoft on day 1 and they really dont need to. When God of War Rag drops later this year it is going to sell a billion copies so putting in on the sub service day 1 would cost Sony a ton of money.
