Cloud Streaming officially arrives on PlayStation Portal

[Dani.]

So, the time has come, PlayStation's cloud gaming has finally left the beta. I think it was about time because Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass nonsense is starting to get on my nerves. https://blog.playstation.com/2025/1...upport-for-digital-ps5-games-in-your-library/

BTFO'd in every way by Vita. I say this because no internet connection required.

More like the vita could already be used for remote play of PS5, PS4, PS3 and even PC using homebrew.

I honestly don't get this thing. Why tf would anyone want to spend hundreds of dollarydoos on a handheld device that requires another £/$600+ piece of hardware to be able to do anything?

I mean, i guess now it also enables you to pay a monthly subscription so you can unreliably cloud stream a bunch of games you could play better on other systems/platforms.

Still struggling to see the benefit tbh.

it's almost perfect expect you have to pay a FUCKING 160 dollars in the usa just to play cloud streamed game on a handheld. i mean just make the fucking thing portable i don't want to play cloud games. i want to play my games that are PS5 only on the system there's some games i still need to play but i'm going on vaction in a week and i can't bring my PS5 with me or it might break.

It still isn't a real handheld...

As a secondary function, it still had physical games.

I don't know what to think about this cloud gaming thing. It seems to me like a trend and a rip-off.

Because it is. Server dies? Games go bye bye! Ask anyone who's ever used On-live or Stadia! You will own nothing!

I got one from a friend for £100 a couple of months ago.

I love it. The Cloud streaming is far and beyond Vita/Phone remote play ever was, and I'm already a PS+ premium member so a load of extra functions just got added to it.

The screen is fantastic, and it works great even on my work WiFi while sitting in my car on lunch break!

Haters can hate, but I love it!
