remember when crackdown 3 was going to be one of those streaming titles, and how that meant there wouldn't be load times

and onlive etc. its a solved problem and yet the attempts to solve it always sound like they brightest guy thought really hard for a while

even steam had a streaming box for living room gaming from a home pc. heck, i think xboxs can already stream between devices, so this is just an abstraction to a server

that’s for last ten titles. it’s their backwards compatibility. and correct me if i’m wrong but it only works on Sony products, likes

they actually reduced the number of devices it’s accessible from, you need a ps4 or a pc now. there might be a mac client too

sony's backwards compatibility is selling you an increasingly-higher-resolution-remaster of the game you originally played on ps2 on each new console generation

yeah, currently it has PS2*, PS3 and PS4 titles, with the PS2 titles being the ones you can buy and play on PS4 (so they're technically PS4 code running on a PS4)

their setup is such that i think they could pretty trivially do more elaborate stuff like other consoles and even stuff exclusive to the service (e.g. some hypothetical online-only game running with far more "client-side" power than the ps4 can give). the only room for improvement with the service isn't on sony's end, it's on the client side with better internet being provided so the service works better since too few have access to good enough connections to really make it work

it was an 8 player match and it's a sectional/L-shaped couch that wraps around

It's a sony projector they released recently. It retails for $1,999 but I got it new for $1,400. It is really great for the price and it has very good viewablity even with all the lights on
