Where's everyone who said it wouldn't happen?

sobotz3894d ago

Xbox already have that lol

HammadTheBeast3894d ago

Yes. But PS4 has that and Ustream.

It only does everything. Better.

MWong3894d ago

I guess that article was right all Sony had to do to get twitch was ask.

FlameHawk3894d ago

I was the one who said that lol, I saw this coming but I didn't expect them to announce it this early.

Godmars2903894d ago

@sobotz:
1) Kind of the exact point.
2) Don't have to pay to access it.
3) ;p

JBSleek3894d ago

I hate people who consider themselves gamers yet find themselves in these pointless fanboy battles.

It's so annoying

Deadpoolio3894d ago

I hate people who try to play the true gamers sheeple up to Micro$haft....You don't have to buy into the Micro$haft crap to be a true gamer, they actually use their brains and are leery about Micro$haft and their shady hardware and tactics...Not just Nom Nom Nom I love Microjizz

pacostacos3894d ago (Edited 3894d ago )

i dont see how ps4 having twitch while the xbox already had it announced is grounds for "RIP xbox" but w.e not much "logic" in that statement there Nature

AngelicIceDiamond3894d ago

Xbox announce they had it at E3.

Anyway thats great Sony's on board with Twitch. Seriously Twitch is the only way to go.

PlayStation broadband access baby

RytGear3894d ago

That was something I punched the air in delight at! If they could get a deal with BT then thats fucking great! I only get about 1.7mb/s which isnt great...

DonFreezer3894d ago

Am I the only who realized how desperate Sony is by mentioning features that are not behind a pay wall. They think that bad mouthing a second time would help them?

Deadpoolio3894d ago

Yes thats just so desperate that with the PS4 pre orders out numbering the Xbone 4:1, that they keep mentioning unlike micro$haft and their daily 180s they aren't locking everything behind a pay wall.....LOL someone must be a butthurt Xbot

sincitysir13894d ago

user74029313894d ago

Escape from Tarkov: Everything you need to know about the hottest game on Twitch

It took a little over three years but Escape from Tarkov (EFT) has risen to the top of Twitch charts in-part due to a drop campaign that began at the start of the week. Created by Russian-based developer, BattleState Games, back in 2016, EFT has surpassed evergreen titles/categories such as League of Legends, Fortnite, Just Chatting, and CSGO to hold down the top viewership spot on the streaming platform. Top personalities such as Dr.Disrespect, Timthetatman, CohhCarnage, and others have flocked to the game to get a piece of the action and try out something new while "veteran" EFT players, Shroud and Dr.Lupo, have been playing since the early days.

Seeing what Google Stadia offers, and what they are planning with their release, it won't be immediate. But they will take over this space (even though I couldn't care about it).

gtxgamer21814d ago

I doubt it, the way youtube treats their content creators I don't see this happening anytime soon

Double_O_Revan1814d ago

Exactly. The gaming section of YouTube has been one of the hardest areas hit during the past few years in terms of monetization. Plus copyright claims are a problem with certain companies and certain games.

AK911813d ago

Twitch is not better they ban users for the tiniest things, yet allow people they are friends with to stream regardless of consequences.

Knightofelemia1814d ago (Edited 1814d ago )

I doubt it will kill Twitch Youtube is like a copyright nazi when it comes to games. If one of your videos gets a copyright claim it's either banned in certain countries or it won't be allowed world wide.

Veneno1814d ago

That's kind of the point if you infringe on the work of other people.

BlackOni1814d ago

Their view of "infringement" is very different than other platforms.

Creating content based on a game for example, is considered in most circles derivative content, not stealing.

Veneno1814d ago

It all depends on the situation.

Knightofelemia1814d ago (Edited 1814d ago )

@Veneno

Streaming a game on Youtube just to have a copyright claim on it because of the in game music is stupid. I use to stream to Youtube I played Spiderman got copyright claims because of in game music so I stopped and stuck with Twitch. If you play GTA with the radio on bang copyright claim on Youtube Twitch only mutes the game music from the radio if you have a VOD and pretty sure Mixer does the same as Twitch. Twitch will take down the music if a band like AC/DC files a copyright claim against that streamer using their music without permission.

slate911814d ago

Can't even play copyrighted music on your stream for Youtube. Twitch will mute small portions of your vods but you can still stream with it.
