Comments on: Consoles? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Consoles http://www.hsmagazine.net/2014/01/consoles-we-dont-need-no-stinkin-consoles/ The PlayStation Home Magazine Fri, 13 Feb 2015 21:20:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.1.2 By: Susan http://www.hsmagazine.net/2014/01/consoles-we-dont-need-no-stinkin-consoles/#comment-287863 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 21:43:49 +0000 http://www.hsmagazine.net/?p=59070#comment-287863 We have 5Mbps+ here in Hawaii which is another reason this caught my attention. I am excited to see when this begins working on a Samsung HDTV since I am a Merchandising Rep for that company and even though we own all Sony Bravia TVs. I don’t know what this year will bring the PS Nation but I am getting finacially prepared for the next Christmas season.

When I watched the keynote video I coulda SWORN they said 20mbps. It’s what made me realize that A) I won’t be able to use it when it eventually does come to the EU and B) How tragically behind the curve the UK still is. From what I can tell, the majority of just the UK is still at around a general speed of 4 to 10mbps. Pretty pathetic for a “1st world” country, but consider this against other parts of Europe and you can see exactly why Sony are releasing this first in the US; general standards.

Large parts of London do have fibre so it WILL work down there, probably. Yet contrast that against the rest of the country and Sony are gonna struggle to convince us to pay subscription for it. Quite a problem since the UK’s highest ever record-breaking console sales (ever, like, ever ever!) title has just been taken by the PS4. Sadly, we need our government to take responsibility to fix this, and since they’re STILL busy charging the elderly stupid amounts of money just to freeze to death in their own homes, I don’t really hold out much hope. It’s a really neat idea though.
