Hopefully we get some official PC drivers for the dual shock 4

 

[fluffydelusions]

Wireless adapter as well official

 

[cordy]

Dope.

 

[dreamfall]

Where can we buy the adaptor? This is awesome!

 

[Spyder_Monkey]

That sounds pretty big.

 

[OraleeWey]

 

[jmaine_ph]

Hopefully this comes with a price drop. $10/month.

 

[UpUpDownDown]

Nice.

In the next decade the PS ecosystem will be tied to a controller. Watch.

 

[jwk94]

So that's what that USB was for.

Says it's coming September.

[Kaako]

I'm day 1 on that wireless adapter. GIVE MEEE!

 

[AAMARMO]

Demon's Souls on PC?

 

[jelly]

Watch out Sony, Microsoft make Windows 10.

/s

 

[sixteen-bit]

Remote play is already possible, right?

 

[The Hermit]

I called it... Hell I called it when I first bought my GTX 670 like 4 years ago.

Soon everything will on PC

 

[Darklor01]

Says it's coming September.

Everything is coming in September. It's wonderful

 

[Garrett Hawke]

need that adaptor ASAP

 

[Ramma2]

Why a special 25$ adapter? Can't they just use bluetooth like the unofficial remote play client does?

 

[GuitarAtomik]

How soon do new games end up on PSNow?

 

[LiK]

MEGATON. RIP third-party hacks.

 

[zewone]

Hyped for the adapter. Don't care about PS Now.

 

[crazepharmacist]

So does that mean we get an official Windows driver then?

 

[wowbaggerBR]

I'm shocked.

 

[kennyamr]

Again, this wasn't part of the the PlayStation Meeting, therefore nothing else is leaking....

Just clarifying.

 

[LifEndz]

Awesome news.

 

[KarmaCow]

MEGATON. RIP third-party hacks.

I doubt the adapter will be better than DS4Windows in terms of customization.

This adaptor will let you connect a DualShock 4 to PC and Mac wirelessly, and will enable every feature of the controller you know and love: buttons, analog sticks, touch pad, light bar, motion sensors, vibration, and stereo headset jack – as long as the gaming application supports these features.

Is this essentially confirming full driver support of the controller on PC as long as the game has it built in?

 

[Ozium]

wow so is there any reason to own a PS4?

 

[Cyryus]

Do I need a PS3 or a PS4 to sub to PS Now and play on PC? I feel like I am missing something!

 

[calc84maniac]

How soon do new games end up on PSNow?

New PS3 games? Haha....

Well, I think Trails of Cold Steel was recently added, so about half a year maybe?

 

[Garrett Hawke]

wow so is there any reason to own a PS4?

ps4 games? ps now is ps3 only

 

[chefbags]

wow so is there any reason to own a PS4?

Well yeah considering the only games you can play on psnow are ps3 games lol.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! Official DS4 support

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

To play PS4 games, I'd assume.

 

[Jotaka]

You need a ps4 to play ps4 games ....

 

[gamz]

So Sony is getting out of the console business?

 

[Krowzer]

Remote play is already possible, right?

Yep, has been for a few months now.

 

[TheAdmiester]

Is this the thing that's streaming only?

 

[The Elite]

Is the bluetooth wireless adapter absolutely necessary if someone already has Bluetooth on their PC?

 

[CopperPuppy]

Wireless adapter is huge news for me. Please release in NA soon.

 

[crazepharmacist]

Well yeah considering the only games you can play on psnow are ps3 games lol.

Ps2 as well right or just PS3?

 

[CriterionDog]

So Sony is getting out of the console business?

This only lets you stream PS3 games. Lol.

 

[Audioboxer]

lol, post backfire.

[Kaako]

Totally maaaannn, totally. lmao

 

[YianGaruga]

wow so is there any reason to own a PS4?

really weak troll attempt

 

[Not Drake]

Big news. PS Now is not targeted at continental Europe, but I'm glad they're expanding the ecosystem.

Is PS Now still only on PS3 games? [edit: seems like it is]

 

[Bl@de]

I hope not I hope they just release drivers and the wireless adapter as something for people without bluetooth.
