It's a good feature and hopefully Steam, Microsoft and Nintendo will be forced to follow suit.
Steam's supported full-game guest passes for almost a decade. It's up to publishers to offer them.

i like the idea but it seems like it'll be a massive hassle with the size of downloads on ps4.
Fucking amazing. We really have to support this by buying the game. It will be amazing if this sets the standard for other coop games.

Woaow that's pretty cool !
Maybe microsoft had restrictions that prevented it, or maybe it only exist because of sony. Sony just seem more open to this type of stuff.
Awesome, and you get 3 days of the FULL game. How many games support this offhand?
this and Now can change the videogames industry forever
Its like people just going out their way to help those who have nothing. Maybe in all the darkness and money grabbing mofo's someone actually let a good thing get through? Can't stand folks who always want something in return.I don't get why they'd do it. There will be so many lost sales because of this. I know plenty of people that buy a game like this just to play co-op with their buddies.
I don't think there's actually been any word on how long the invites last. Even one week could be way off the mark (relatively speaking).
Maybe 72hrs? I think a week is probably a bit too long, but between 48 and 72 hours (more leaning towards 72hrs as you need to download a good chunk of the game first) seems perfect and should give plenty of time to enjoy co-op.
The restriction is that the app didn't work without a server... a guy that bought the game and will invite you to play with himHm, I'm sure there will be some further restrictions on this like playtime/session time/no savestate or something similair. They're basically offering the whole game's content for free.

It is a feature revealed at PS4 reveal in Feb 2013... so if MS want to make something like they need to give tools that allow that to the developers.Huh.... That's not as complicated as I thought it would be. Kind of weak that a feature like this is exclusive.
Didn't Adam Boyes mention in the giant bomb interview that there is both a time restriction and a restrictions on the amount of time you can use this feature?
I hope this actually spurs on developers to include more co-op.
The future is already looking bright, but we could use a good co-op revival right about now.
But, I would HAVE the game, the app IS the game, not worth it for me, if I have to download 30GB to play with a friend, might as well buy the game.
