So the Nexus 7 one of the best Tablets out and the PS4 one of the best consoles out. Put them together? That would be a potent mix.
So thats exactly what I did, I ran remote play on the Nexus 7 using root access. I have speeds of 600kb/s up not very fast at all but still was playable on the
PlayStation will be dropping the "PlayStation Network" and "PSN" branding by September 2026, Insider Gaming has learned.
this goes hand in hand with the recent rumours about a combined sub model they are allegedly working on.
not sure what to think of it. psn was genuinely a great name for what it did, but oh well.
Dear Lord this article is written by AI, It talks circles over and over
Anywho, i wonder what they'll refer to it as , PSN just has a nice ring to it, kinda silly to erase it just cause 🤷♂️
I'm not too fond of this change. Changing established brand names in most industries doesn't always turn out well. But we'll see

PlayStation is trying to beat last gens Xbox missteps with all these garbage announcements… I see no other reason.
Phasing out a 20 year old iconic name like this makes absolutely no sense

I thought I was losing it. Everything is working in my house except PSN. I checked the PSN page an hour ago and it was all green checks.
I just checked again, everything is red. Says they're doing maintenance.
It finally came back up but I must say that it's really unacceptable to not be able to play my games when it's down. Also I have gain a new appreciation for physical games. I know digital keeps growing and growing but the thing is you are paging for something you don't have complete control over and that's lame.
It has been over a year since ps+ expired and i only play SP games. I only got 1 month ps+ basic back when i had to do rdr2 online trophies.
I couldn’t care less and shows sp games will always FTW
....and this is why everyone should support more than one platform. Switch has been getting more play time as a result.
Well i am locked out of my digital single player games because offline play wasn't activated and licences can't be verified. And i got no physical games. Gotta remember to activate that when it's back up.
Hopefully it comes back up soon.
I have several PS4 consoles in my house for various purposes, I'm screwed because I have such a large collection and I don't want to have redownload whenever I want to play a game. I want to fire it up, like going to a shelf, pulling a game off the shelf, putting it in the disc drive and off you go that fast. Can't do that with digital and limited HDD space. Installing a disc is faster, you don't have to worry about data caps and internet speeds, and storage space is really expensive. Xbox just allowed a 16TB HDD to be accessed by Xbox, but that 16TB is gonna cost you, even more if it's SSD, if those even exist yet.....
It is still down but if you go to settings -users and accounts- other - restore licenses i managed restore a license to a single player game. Back to replaying GOW Ragnarok.
Single player my a**
I have downloaded unicorn overlord, Spiderman 1 And many offline single player but I am getting error to restore license but psn is down in UK.
What a load of bullshit that I can't even play single player games...
Digital is future /s :@
Ask PlayStation X: "We are aware some users might be currently experiencing issues with PSN."
I'm playing Fortnite with my cousin right now, but it's the only game with servers up, the rest is working, library, store, downloads, it's just the online, which sucks, cause I wanted to play Helldivers and Phasmophobia
Saturday midday for me so no biggie Friday night would be annoying
Seems to be a big one so might extend into Saturday for the you guys
Yeah, no end in sight. I watched some KCD2 streams to pass the time. Time to call it a night 😴
Down for me but single player PS plus games still work and obviously anything I own digitally or physically so big deal
PlayStation has been hit with a worldwide outage
When PSN is down, can people even use their PS Portals locally?
I'm also near platinum in Astro but I can't even load the trophies page on the system with this issue going on.
Yea, this thing just became a paper weight. :\
I just tried, and it woke the console up out of sleep mode just fine, but it's stuck in a neverending attempt to actually connect. I've had my Portal for a bit over a month now and have absolutely loved it... but I just found my biggest dislike of this thing.
@potatoseal great! Glad your region is working. Mine's still stuck in "Connecting". :\
Yea weird, my Portal wouldn't connect until I actually restarted the Portal. It's working fine now! 🔥
No it still needs to use you PlayStation account authentication to connect the two systems. Both ends need to be able to talk to PlayStation authentication servers to verify your identity prior to connection. It's a good thing I guess as you wouldn't want a unauthorised connection to your console
There's a alternative remote play app on the app store that allows it but it's not going to help you with the portal right now
Im able to connect using my PS Portal but all my games have the "License cannot be verified...." error.
And here I just dusted off my PS4 the past week after not touching it for over 3 years and now I can't even play an offline visual novel (World End Syndrome), lol
Same here! I went to Twitter to check up on progress for WEP and apparently it's on the backburner for the moment while the production team works on a spin-off that takes place in the same universe as WES. I did get the platinum trophy though. Now I'm working on Steins;Gate Elite which I should have gone through years ago because the anime adaptation is what got me into anime to begin with, lol.
Yeah it’s been 3 hours as of this writing. No official word on the cause that I know of.
Verizon had outages across the US yesterday. Probably still do bit it didn't effect me. Wonder if this is related or just a coincidence.
I can see people in my friend list playing, its not everyone just like other times. I don't mind I got other things I can do in this world we call life. It's funny on Twitter cause they all use the same excuse "oh just got off work and just wanna play". Also I like free stuff compensation would be great, I prepared for it to go down so I can get more out of it compensation
Just checked and it seems Xbox is also down, is this ddos? Downdetector has quite a few people posting about both platforms and also for Verizon as well
yeh its been down for hours now.
everytime it goes down, i get ptsd from 2011 haha
3 weeks.
Free stuff at the expense of 3 months without PSN. No online play, no access to digital games .....
@Extermin
Ain't talking that long, 24hrs is the limit. 24hrs should be that compensation time. 3 weeks I'm strong enough to handle it but its not worth it at 3 months bruh. 24hrs
@exterminator it was easier to stomach back then sure but at least there's still disc based games and games you have on your system will still load just fine unlike Xbox there's no check in to validate licences it just plays locally if it's not expired
Yeah, they'll probably update the firmware of the mobile PSN to get native remote play.
The Nexus 7 2013 is on helluva tablet in terms of gaming graphics power!
I have it and it runs most games in buttery smooth framerates.
I hope they bring remote play to other devices like samsung tabs and not just ps vita or Sony phones.
Surprised how quickly it got ported out. Though your controllers connected to the ps4 and not the phone. On the z3 series its able to pair to the phone very easily.
I got this working on my nexus 7 2012 model, its no way near as good as remote play on the vita, there was a fair bit of lag too which is very annoying
