Playstation now smart tv app download

Everything is being processed in the cloud and video and audio is streamed to the TV, making all of the in-game action dependant mostly on your Internet connection. You might have done some "live" video streaming before, like Twitch.

Even "live" video is buffered for a few seconds, so you have not only this frame, but probably the next few hundred frames as well. PS Now is truly live, though. You're getting this exact frame at this second and you need to pull the next one down live, too.

Any tiny hiccup in your Internet connection will result in skipped audio or a dropped frame. The latency is really impressive. Even on action-y games like Street Fighter, you'd be hard pressed to notice that the game isn't native. Sony recommends a 5Mbps hardwired connection, but we ignored that and did Wi-Fi anyway, and it worked fine.

We did run into a single "bad connection" session that had some screen tearing, but after exiting and relaunching the game, everything was fine.

It took a computing platform that I thought was so slow it was useless and turned it into a fun gaming device. I was playing actual PS3 games on my TV and, to be honest, didn't really notice that it wasn't a local game. The biggest downside to PlayStation Now is that it's just so darn expensive—the rentals especially. That's crazy! Sony just took a big step forward with PS Now, though.

This is one of the first times you've been able to legally, at least play Sony games on non-Sony hardware. With the subscriptions and rentals, it makes a ton of sense to us. Since the service will apparently run on even the most anemic hardware, why is PlayStation Now so limited in device compatibility? Sony should have a million clients out there for everything with a screen and bluetooth controller, making PS Now the gaming version of Netflix.

For now Sony's official "devices" page lists every client for PlayStation Now as an "Open Beta," including my Smart TV, so maybe when it's time for an official "non-beta" version, there will be wider platform support.
