Does PES 2015 work for anybody?
Worked for me and a friend in the UK.
Advanced Warfare doesn't work in any region I don't think. Sports Friends doesn't work in the EU, but it does in the US. If both users sign into a US account then it can be played via Shareplay.

Assassins Creed Unity doesn't work either 
Such a great feature but it needs to be mandatory
Such a great feature but it needs to be mandatoryI can't get it to work. I have a 15Mbps download and 7.7 upload, my brother has 10.something donwload and 5.7 or so upload yet it keeps saying 'the internet connection is too slow'.
Is it because we're on the same routers it just doesn't work or is it something else? I tried share playing my game and my brother tried it with his game but it just didn't work. We both have PS+
Solutions?

Had my first share play experience a few days ago.
I let a friend play a GTA mission, worked very well.
After that we tried FIFA15.
He owns it, I don't.
We played against each other, also worked very well.
Another great thing was that a mutual friend of ours is actually playable in FIFA, he plays for a turkish team. He scored a goal with him and recorded it via the share button.
Cool experience all around.

Share Playing to the other PS4 on my house works great. I shared with my friend who lives in another town nearish to me and he said it looked and played fine but he kept losing connection after a few minutes, I don't know what we did wrong.

Can someone explain how the "Share play session" works?
I heard there's a 1 hour limit to it.
Say, if I'm playing Fifa or NHL with a friend, will the game disconnect/cut off automatically after an hour?
Or, do I have to close and create a new Share Play session after we finished each time to restart the clock?

Yes, you need to manually create new 1hr session with few clicks. You can do that how many times you want, there are no limits.

Looking for some help that may have been answered somewhere already.
My brother and I tried share play last night and we got mixed results. Both of us are on 10 down, 4 up. He can connect to my PS4 and play just fine. When I try to connect to his I get an error message that says "Cannot join Share Play because the connection speed is too low"
What do?
Edit: I should also add when he was playing my PS4, parts of the screen were cut off. Some of the HUD in GTA and Infamous were going off the screen.

Upgrade your internet service. I got that all the time on ADSL, now that I've switched to 50M Fibre Optic SharePlay works just fine. My old internet wasn't good enough to do SharePlay, even when it was set to 'standard' quality instead of 'high'.
According to this Gamespot article from Nov. 7, there are 14 games that block Share Play.
- Another World
- Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare
- Call of Duty: Ghosts
- Child of Light
- Hotline Miami
- Metro Redux
- Minecraft
- PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate
- Rayman Legends
- SteamWorld Dig
- Thief
- Tomb Raider
- Wolfenstein: The New Order
According to this reddit thread here, Dying Light does work with Share Play, but if you're in the EU, there may be some problems.
Thank you for the extensive answers. Also I am in Finland so I guess there might be some problems with the game. Well, it seems like a nice game, so I guess I'll buy it and play regular coop.

Does The Order work? I'd love to try it.
What was the distance between you and your friend?
He's around 45 minutes away from me.

Share play worked flawlessly until update 2.50 and it hasn't worked since for me. I have 30 down 5 up. tried changing it lowest setting and still get too low message.
Same. My internet is fast, but ever since the update, Share Play won't work for me.

since the update i can't shareplay (won't even let me attempt it) so this awesome feature became useless.

Has anyone tried 1080p60 Remote/Share Play on PS4 Pro?
I'm really curious about the streaming quality (it also supports H.265, but H.264 is used for legacy compatibility) and the bitrate (10 Mbps might not be enough anymore)...
Rumors say that input lag might be improved too.
