Play PC games on your PS3 - StreamMyGame launches Linux player

PSextreme reports this tasty morsel of ps3 gaming goodness:

"Playing the latest PC game on the PS3 is now a reality at HD resolution and fast frame-rates," said Richard Faria CEO. "I have a PS3 in my living room and PC in my office and my two kids both have old PCs in their bedrooms. Now we can play games anywhere around the home. StreamMyGame's technology networks the power of a main PC so it can be used to play high end games on other PCs, PS3s and Linux devices."

Maybe I'm not as bright as i thought i was, but could someone answer this, plain and simple :

Will this allow me to play Battlefield2, Company of Heroes and World of Warcraft, on the PS3 ?

Because when i clicked on their video that says "Stream Games from a Windows PC to a PlayStation3", they showed'em controlling a toy copter through a PS3 controller, that's not a PCGame.

Does this mean Crysis on PS3 ?.. I'm still shocked.

Winter47th6679d ago (Edited 6679d ago )

Meh, never mind, turns out all it does is stream the PC games to your PS3 and that's it, you still need a fully speced PC to run'em games and the PS3 got nothing to do with it.

The only benefit from this is if your PC is in the other room you can stream'em games to where you are just for the mere convenience of it.

does anyone know if it is possible too record live TV while playing on your Playstation 3 ?

iNcRiMiNaTi6678d ago

its more of a projector than actually playing the games as someone above mentioned. damn, got hyped for nothing...first thing that popped in my head was crysis lol.

Bioshock and Gear of Wars playable on PS3??

Juneyp156678d ago

omg u took it from me before i could say it..

Crysis, Gears, Bioshock, Battlefield 2, on PS3!!!!

ZTO Jamie6678d ago

Yes, but they're still PC games. The PS3 isn't changing them, and you need the same spec PC if you were running it on a PC. This is merely making the PS3 into a projector.

Pawnbroker Simulator review - ChristCenteredGamer

CCG writes - "Despite my complaints about the music, graphics, and inspection mechanics, I had a lot of fun with Pawnbroker Simulator. It scratches the itch of running a store and making money buying and selling all sorts of interesting things. While I personally prefer the mechanics available in something like Supermarket Simulator more, I still think Pawnbroker Simulator has a lot of good going for it. The game is still being actively worked on, with console ports also on the way. If store management simulator games are something you enjoy, there's enough different here from the competition to make it worth your while."

Really loved the preview, and enjoyed seeing what you had to say about it as well!

On another note, the article mentions posting the video once you are allowed to—were you given a different embargo date for it? We were simply told the article and video footage were restricted until 8:00 AM Central Time.
