    With my kinda rigid interpretation of Rule 1, this should be posted on an hardware community. [email protected] maybe ?

    Edit : After a good night of sleep I have to admit I was too rigid here. I’ll be more lenient in the future about hardware related subject, when it has to do with gaming. I’d probably still remove a topic about the latest AMD CPU or similar, but games consoles and its peripherals are indeed related enough to games to be allowed.

      How is this not “related to games”? It’s a thing that has the sole purpose of enabling people to play games.

      REALLY curious how “rigid” your interpretation is and how you feel this is not “related to games”

        Maybe taking the “Playstation has no games” meme too literally

        The rigid interpretation you can have when you are tired. But yeah, in this case I’m mistaken.

          I still have no idea what you are on about and it sounds like you actually have a different set of rules you want to enforce.

          So rather than confuse everyone when you are tired… maybe update the sidebar and the list of rules so that people know what you want this board to discuss?

            That’s the idea, but only the community owner can change the sidebar.

    This update will also include a beta version of a new feature that many fans have been asking for – support for cloud streaming on PS Portal. When the update is live, PlayStation Plus Premium members will be able to participate in a beta for cloud streaming on PS Portal, allowing select PS5 games in the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog* to be streamed directly from our servers, even without a PS5 console.

      Wait. It didn’t support the PSN cloud from the start?

      Like, I thought it was questionable that it couldn’t play ANY games locally (PS1 games run on a potato at this point) but sure. But I assumed it at least supported the cloud streaming Sony occasionally remembers they try to sell.

      This thing was SOLELY for playing people’s own PS5s? What the fuck?

      From an outside perspective it’s so strange that this thing doesn’t work with Xbox live and other cloud providers. Or does it?

        It does not. Currently, all it does is replace the “PS Remote Play” app you can put on your phone, which is basically just remote desktop for your PS5. Without a PS5, all you have with the Portal is a screen that doesn’t do anything.

        This update will allow it to stream games from Sony’s servers, instead of from your own PS5. But it is still limited just to Sony’s platform.

    It does seem like a very obvious thing to add, and the mind boggles at how it wasn’t there to start with.
