Unofficial app opens up PS4 remote play on Android devices

To this point, the PlayStation 4's novel Remote Play function was only accessible on the PlayStation Vita, PlayStation TV, and certain Xperia mobile phones. That's no longer the case, thanks to an unofficial port that lets the official PS4 Remote Play app work on practically any modern Android device.

Nice. my friends just tried it, it worked flawlessly for them.them. I'm currently installing it on my Samsung android. it also seems Sony wont be banning users for using the app. atleast going by this conversation a user on Reddit had with a Sony representative

I've installed it on an old phone., and it works. But it seems laggier than the PS TV (mine's wired ethernet), so I do most of my remote play on that

Still cant get a DS4 to work with this app, have it connected via BT(using Sixxaxis), it controls every other function of my Sammy tablet, when i boot up remote play, the DS4 loses all functionality.

solidsnake2224123d ago

I can't get it to work with my dualshock 4 either. In fact I can't even register the controller to my phone. Using a Galaxy s5.

SniperControl4123d ago

I could never connect it direct via BT to my sammy tablet, it would pair with the DS4, but then the DS4 would turn itself off after a few seconds.
I had been using sixxaxis for ages anyway connecting a DS3 to my tablet so thought i try it with the DS4, it worked.
Anyway, not that bothered, the DS4 still works playing streaming PC games via Nvidia Shield & Limelight. I have my Vita for Remote Play.

NO, that can't be... No! I can't... Really?/s

They for sure chose the worst way to deal with it

-Foxtrot27d ago

Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.

Makes you think…

HectixRose29d ago

I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.

JEECE29d ago

It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.

CantThinkOfAUsername28d ago

I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.

Soy29d ago

Didn't have to kill him. Just have them part ways or Joel can "retire," whatever.

DarXyde28d ago

I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).

From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.

But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.

Ashunderfire8628d ago

Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!

Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.

Ashunderfire8628d ago (Edited 28d ago )

I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.

Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.

The only ND game that was so disappointing to me I couldn't finish it.

pwnmaster300029d ago

Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle28d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7728d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
