Is it available in Europe?
I filled it out. Not sure if that was needed to get the code. Took about a month to get sent the code for the beta.To you guys who got the accepted invit email, you filled out the survey thing in the email right? You had to do that to actually get a code.

What do I have to do to get into the beta
Figured. It's been awhile since I did that. I'm trying to sift through my email to see how long it took from when I filled it out to when I received the code.Like I said though, I believe it was close to a month. YmmvIt was needed.

Mine took a few weeks, I think it was like 3. Maybe soon?I got my invite email April 21st, still waiting on the voucher... why does it take so long?
I keep seeing this thrown in response a lot when people make that point and it makes no sense to me. Why the hell would they care if you buy a PS4 or not? They make no money on PS4s. They make money on games. They'd make just as much if not more through PSNow if they followed the traditional sales model, eliminate the used game market, make piracy impossible, and keep much more control over the games that are 'sold'. It sounds horrible from a consumer rights point of view, but a wet dream from the perspective of a corporation.

If they didn't care about console sales then they wouldn't have made the PS4 and made the PS3 a game streaming box. They need the PS4 to sell because not everyone wants to play their games through a streaming service with delay and quality loss.

meanwhile in europe....
What is the release date for PSNOW?
Well that is about the amount of time it takes to get the second email. Don't lose hope yet.All I remember was getting the email, then clicking the link and doing stuff. Then it said wait for a code. That was almost exactly a month ago
For a long while they didn't think selling PS4s in Canada was worth their time, either.Sadly I don't think you are wrong. Apparently Sony doesn't think Canada is worth their time.

Youll need a new voucher code specifically to download the PS4 version of the Beta app. In addition to inviting a new bunch of Beta testers specifically into the PS4 Beta, we will also be working on getting PS4 codes to those already in the PS3 Beta.
If you are in this boat, be patient, and look for a code coming to your email inbox over the next week or so.
Relax a bit. You'll get your code.Wait so it's separate from the PS3 beta? Stupid. If you're in that you should be in this.

So what internet speeds and ping does one need to have at least a decent experience with this?
The PS3 beta has noticeable input lag and compression. I'll see if the PS4 beta is any better.
I'm on a wired 50/20 connection and most of the games ran like trash for me. They would either be very reponsive but have massive screen tearing issues or they would have a noticeable delay in input.So what internet speeds and ping does one need to have at least a decent experience with this?

So, my account is on US PSN but I live in Brazil... will I be able to try it or I'll be blocked via IP? (supposing I get a code)

what's your internet like?
Practically next to one. And yes I made very well sure of it. I am just really sensitive to screen tearing and bad compression. Some don't even notice it.Dafuck?
I have 15/5 (fuck Comcast) and except for some instances where it randomly got crappy I couldn't tell the difference between PSNow and native. :/
Did you double check to make sure no one in the house was downloading anything? Or maybe you live really far from the data center?
