PS4 2.0 Update - SharePlay

[IntoxNitram]

Details on exactly how Share Play will work weren't shared, but, put simply, it allows you to play local multiplayer games with a friend who is not physically with you. This works in two different ways. In one case, you can (virtually) hand off your controller to a friend as if you were both sitting in the same room, presumably so you could take turns with a single-player game. In the other case, you can invite someone to play a game's local multiplayer with you--again, without actually being in the same physical location. Share Play requires PlayStation Plus.

This seems like something extremely interesting for Playstation that could win a lot of people over. Will you use this feature?

My internet could never do this, not on wifi at least.

Yeah I guess it'll be very dependant on a good connection which is unfortunate for some.

Try many, I can see bandwidth being eaten up like crazy making it hard for many to make use of it.

I'm sure it will be optimised to be useful to most people otherwise there would be no point in adding it.

I think internet in japan is pretty good, which is why Sony would add it but hard to say if they really know our status over here.
