Playstation Now

The streaming service that allows you to stream PS3 titles via PS4 is at beta stage.

Playstation are supposedly sending out invites for the beta, id love to be on this. Does anyone know if the beta invites are for UK users or just US? anyone here had an email?

No chance it will be in the UK anytime soon. They think our internet sucks.

They are right about that then, our internet does suck, compared to other countrys around the world we are miles behind.

Anyway.... I think your wrong, it wont be that long away, few months at most.

I think we're getting it in 2015, the beta is only for the US at the moment with invites being sent out now.

Yeah supposedly Q1 2015, just after Japan - expect it to slip!

More interested in the PS4 emulator for PS1/PS2 games myself now...

This. Especially if it is local like people are speculating

interested to see if it does come with any graphical enhancements as well. Playstation Now looks good, but I'm keeping my PS3 so I'm not overly fussed about how long it takes.

I thought no one cared about BC from my last discussion on this topic not long ago? In reality it has utility now while PS4 games are hardly abundant. In 2015 probably not so bothered. ..

Your right, it shouldn't but it does. I am on Sky Fibre and only get 12mb download MAX! had countless engineers out that cannot sort the problem and I know plenty of areas that do not have the option of fibre.

Yeah the emulator for ps1 and ps2 games sounds great, cant wait.

Can you use a US PSN account and get it, like you could with the PS3?

antijoke · 29 Jan 2014 at 13:56

Why on earth would you want to do that? It would likely be horrendous.

Tummy · 29 Jan 2014 at 14:01

Is this the same service that they will be offering PlayStation 1 and PlayStation 2 games on?

antijoke · 29 Jan 2014 at 14:33

Apparently only PS3 games will be on Playstation 4 now, at least on the PS4, with the PS1/PS2 games being done locally by emulation.
