Happy Christmas all.

My lad has been on his PS4 since about 7.30 this morning! Got a great deal at Tesco, it was £289 on Black Friday and I had double boost tokens worth 90 so only aid £200 for it. Go the PSTV at the same time so we can shove him in the kitchen to play on it too!

I did the same with the boost! Is the ps tv any good?

Xbox took down by hackers

jon92 · Dec 25, 2014

2,000RTS and we stop hitting #xbox and #psn

That's there quote

Nick · Dec 25, 2014

Good timing! Makes you wonder what protection xbox live and psn as they are down a fair bit!

jon92 · Dec 25, 2014

DDOS attack seem to always bring them down though. Anonymous trying to bring them back up

Covstu · Dec 25, 2014

ps4 was down earlier for maintenance however... maybe took it offline to be safe after the xbox episode?? Seem to remember Sony got battered last year with something similar.

Nick · Dec 26, 2014

Psn down too, embarrassing really on the busiest day off the year

Actually yes, it is. It is basically a Vita and I stuck a 64GB Vita card in it. It's good to be able to play Vita, PSOne, PSP games on it but it does come into it's own with the Remote Play feature. Found our PS4 easily enough and he could play his PS4 games on the tele in the kitchen through the PSTV. It's important to use it wired though. Our PS4 is wired straight into the router and I use a powerline adapter to wire the PSTV. To be honest I think it would struggle a little over WiFI.

I am lost on how it works

So you you plug it in to the network and TV and then it works through the network? Does the controller plug into the Ps TV?

torchomatic · Dec 26, 2014

The PSTV is really tiny, looks like a little portable HD. You plug it into your network, either wired or using WiFi. You can use a PS3 controller or PS4 controller. As I said it is basically a Vita. There's a connect to PS4 feature, it finds your PS4 and then your PS4 screen appears on the remote television you have the PSTV plugged into. You then use it as if you were using your PS4, clever stuff.

That's quite good.

What happens if you have the TV on in the living room with the PS4 on? Is it just like a screen share?

jon92 · Dec 26, 2014

Same person taken xbox down again now

Nick · Dec 26, 2014

Starting to piss me off, with the millions they are getting every year / month from it you would think they have DDOS protection...

jon92 · Dec 27, 2014

They were offered help to protect the servers but turned it down

torchomatic · Dec 27, 2014

Well, our tele is on HDMI 1 and the PS4 is on HDMI2. So, we have the tele on as normal and as long as the PS4 is turned on you can go into the kitchen where the PSTV is and connect to the PS4. Simple really.

so is it a download or a separate unit?? Is it a subscription fee or is that covered by the PSN membership??

Nick · Dec 27, 2014

Its a unit that does it £80 quid here

Covstu · Dec 27, 2014

still not overly sure what it does though!!!

jon92 · Dec 27, 2014

Surprise xbox down again

torchomatic · Dec 29, 2014

You plug it into another tele in your house and you can control your PS4 remotely through it. For instance, our PS4 is plugged into the main tele so if me and the wife want to watch something on there we can't if our lad is on his PS4 or he moans if we chuck him off. Now, he could go on the tele in the kitchen and play and control the PS4 remotely while we can still watch the main tele.

It's also a Vita.

Never understand a vita, isnt that just like a PSP?

torchomatic · Dec 29, 2014

Yeah, just like a PSP. The PSTV is essentially just a Vita. So you can play loads of games on the tele it's connected to.

ajsccfc · Dec 29, 2014

The Vita is the PS4 to the PSP's PS3, it's the next model up.

Ah okay, so does it do the other types of junk I.e. Netflix etc??

Does it play all games?

torchomatic · Dec 30, 2014

Can't get Netflix as yet. It does has a media player though so you can access stuff on your network. It plays all PS4 games as it's effectively just a mirror of what is happening on the PS4. Doesn't play all Vita games though.
