Netflix app appears on XMB of UK PS3s ahead of 2012 launch

Connected Consoles: "Netflix has been planned for an 'early 2012' launch in the UK for quite some time now and it seems that today the steps to bring the service across the Atlantic has taken one step closer with the appearance of the Netflix app on the XMB of UK PS3s."

Just booted up the PS3 to play Dark Souls and noticed that. Didn't even know it was coming to the UK

I'm looking forward to it coming, hopefully we'll get close to the same sort of service the US gets from it eventually, LoveFilm's streaming isn't the best and their app for PS3 is pretty awful.

forcefullpower4492d ago

Totally agree the App is dreadful that they released.

I'v had had an HD TV for 5 years and 8mb BB for 6years but yet only a year a go we get crappy SD streaming from Love Film. Was not impressed when i tried it.

So many of my friends get the highest BB speeds when they become available yet these movies companies still have not jumped on the band wagon. They download movies but most of them would rather not if they could just pay a monthly fee to watch what they like instead.

There is such a massive revenue sitting there they are just not tapping into.

Although I have yet to get a PS3 again (like the 7th time lol) I am keen on trying this service on the Xbox 360 has the folks in the US have had it for a very long time.

PSWarlord4491d ago

Im sorry but there is no way your on ur 7th ps3!I CALL BS...I use my PS3 alot and only on my third and i spilt a glass off water on one, I was very pissed and decided my ps3 needed watering!Your either talking sh!t or very unlucky!I apologise if you are...but I just cant believe that.

PSWarlord4491d ago

BTW I LOVE DB!I have watched every episode!I hope they will continue the story but ONE PIECE is giving me my MANJA fix at the moment!I have tried watching BLEACH and Natura (Ithink its called) but Im not interested!If I see the offical ssi4 I will die happy lol!

MaximusPrime4491d ago

hope this is way better than what Lovefilm has to offer...

PSWarlord4491d ago

I will be the first off many to sign up for this as long as the service is one par with what the USA are getting!I signd up to LOVEFILM for the second time when I found out that it was been streamed to PS3. What a let down that was!Must the films no one cares about or fuking black and white, Its the 21st century havent you heard of colour OMG!
I read somewhere that new releases would be streamable (I think I just made up a new word) 2 weeks after they have hit the shelves!Well in the USA anyway!If its another USA Lovefilm then you wont got a dime/pound off me I want QUALITY shows and NEW RELEASES!I would honestly pay £50 a month to watch all the movies/tv shows!

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis5h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

It's worth a play through today.

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg1d ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721d ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d 1h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d 1h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK22h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast4h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake21h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast4h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon16h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast4h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.
