Sony is offering one week trials to its game streaming service, PlayStation Now. It's not hard to draw comparisons between PS Now and Netflix, but perhaps the most important one I can make is that both platforms allow users to experiment with titles that would normally fall outside of their regular comfort zone thanks to a low cost of admission. I've discovered some of my favorite movies by trying new things on Netflix, adopting a philosophy that boils down to me frequently thinking “ok, I'll check it out for 15 minutes. If I hate it, I'll bail.” Surely that philosophy must also apply to PS Now, right?

Operating on the presumption that yes, it surely must, I've compiled a list of 5 games that differ greatly from one another. If you have time, and an active subscription to PS Now, it won't hurt to give them a try. Who knows? You may even end up liking some of them.
