PS4 sales soar past 30 million units

Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. announced Wednesday that their Playstation 4 gaming console has surpassed 30 million units sold worldwide.

Well, the third party developer didn't want to wait for Sony to release this remote play pc application and, instead, he worked on one and released it a few days ago.

Dubbed Remote PC Play, basically this app will trick the PS4 into thinking that your PC is a recognizable remote play device, thus letting gamers stream their PS4 games onto their PCs. Sony's official version will likely be free.

Now that the cat is out of the bag for both PlayStation_2" target="_blank">PS2 emulation and Remote Play on PC/Mac, what will Sony have left in store for PlayStation Experience next week?

He doesn't say exactly when the new feature will be available, but he does confirm that it will be available on Mac as well. Remote Play allows you to play games on your PS4 from another device, using your home Wi-Fi network or even the internet.

The PS4 has consistently outsold the Xbox One but last month the Xbox console was on top in the key battleground of the USA for the first time since April, boosted by sales off it space shooter Halo 5: Guardians. With more households having a Windows-based PC than a Vita that put Microsoft on top, which may go some way to explaining why Sony has made a decision to bring PlayStation Remote Play functionality to the platform as well.
