Playstation Now is coming to the PC
Sony sends word out that Playstation Now (cloud gaming service) will officially come to the PC. This service will go live in parts of Europe and North America. In addition, Sony revealed the DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor.
As Sony noted, Playstation Now will bring a wide selection of PlayStation exclusive titles to Windows PC for the very first time, including entries in the Uncharted, God of War, and Ratchet & Clank franchises, as well as beloved PS3 games like The Last of Us and Journey.
In case you are wondering, no; this service will not make the PS3 games run better. Playstation Now will simply give you the ability to play your PS3 games on your PC via streaming methods. And that is all.
On the other hand, the DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor will launch in early September for a suggested retail price of $24.99, and will let you connect a DualShock 4 to PC and Mac wirelessly. This adaptor 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.
Here are the recommended specs for running Playstation Now on the PC:
- Windows 7 (SP1), 8.1 or 10
- 3.5 GHz Intel Core i3 or 3.8 GHz AMD A10 or faster
- 300 MB or more; 2 GB or more of RAM
- Sound card; USB port
Last but not least, Sony claimed that a minimum 5Mbps connection is required to use PS Now on any device, and recommends a wired Internet connection for the optimal experience.

Yeah, right, that is exactly what it means
Otherwise, this seems to be a pretty smart move the expand the market of the service. Alot of PS4 owners are also PS3 owners and have all the games they want to play. PC gamers on the other hand getting direct access to some great exclusives is a whole other matter. Unfortunately, SONY seem to be doing really well this generation.

I hope that the DualShock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor will come with native Xinput support/driver for Windows. Otherwise it'd be useless, as one might just as well connect it via Bluetooth which works perfectly fine anyway (everything works when using an Xinput Wrapper for Xinput games anyhow, but it'd be nice to be able to shed it).
