Forums - Sony Discussion - PS4 Remote Play for PC/Mac being worked on by Sony

I dont see the use with this feature, maybe only to record footage with fraps if its even possible.

Nice. Remote play has potential imo, they should try to make it as big as possible!

It's useful if someone needs to watch something on the TV your PS4 is plugged into and you don't wanna carry your PS4 to another room for 30 minutes of gameplay.



I guess it's cool but no real use for me, only need it for the Vita



Linux ignored like usual



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

People look at these features from their point of view and dub them useless. Look at the bigger picture. The console can be like a TV cable box, useful throughout your whole home and not just one room. You don't say "hey, I already have a TV in the living room. Why would I want to watch TV in the bedroom?

Think bigger!



What does this feature actually do? Does it let me play PS4 games through my pc (screen)?
But it still needs a PS4 to be switched on, and using the PS4 controller.

If so, what's the usecase for this feature?? Why just not play on the PS4 itself?

I don't see the value in the feature.



Pretty cool, weird to think that if you have a laptop you don't need a tv to play your PS4 games :)



I think I could get some use out of it. But most of the time when I want to play the TV is available, or someone else is already playing.

Nice little feature that about 1% will ever use. Happy for those who care.
