    Don't want to ignite a row or anything, but what's the story with Drive Club? Is it just the demo that's available on PS Plus? I thought it was the full game that we were gonna get?

    It's like a restricted version of the full game:
    DriveClub will launch in two flavors: a PS Plus version, which will be free to download to all PS Plus members, and the regular retail version. The free PS Plus version includes a limited selection of cars, tracks, and features, while the regular version has everything included. PS Plus members will be able to upgrade to the full game for about half the price of the retail version (depending on territory).

    PS4 can't even play movies from a hard drive as far as I know. It's summit the PS3 could do but the PS4 can't.

    It will not be available till they sort their servers out, they have been rolling out incremental server updates throughout the day, but they have to get the servers stable before you will see the demo.

    Will it ever be possible?

    As far as I know the PS3 couldn't play movies (from a hard drive) when it was first released, and the ability to do so was included as a patch/update after it's release. So yeah, it's possible and probable.

    Why they didn't include it in the first place I'll never know.

    If they gave Need For Speed away as the first major title, I'd be very impressed!

    I'd be delighted. I held off buying it.

    That's only the upgrade to the plus version, it'll get you the full game but it's the free plus version people are waiting for.

    Poor showing on the ps plus front this month I think, hope there's a game I can really get stuck into next month.

    You can setup a plex server on your laptop, I tried it and it worked well

    I see playstation tv seems to be able to do similar in the future too.
    Cant find post but saw it the other day.

    Went to check how much time I've still got, and I've another year of plus on my account.

    What browser do you guys use to navigate the store? I can't get it to work at all in Chrome and in Firefox it hangs every few minutes and I need to refresh. It is very annoying.

    I use Chrome and have never had an issue, you have everything up to date like flash and java?

    Nope, if you did then you could just burn them to disc and sell on. Buy a bigger HDD maybe?

    You can back up your Vita games onto a hard drive if you so choose - I'd imagine they have DRM sorted to stop you selling them on. You used to be able to do it with the PS3 iirc but I think now you can only copy an image of the entire disk to a hard drive as backup. Don't think you can do it with PS4.

    I suppose it goes back to the old debate of - if PSN ever went belly up what happens everyone's digital purchases.

    Did that for vita but sold it, i was gonna get ps tv but can you backup the vita games on that like you can with the vita?

    Ya, I have heard too many good reports to walk away from it. It just hasn't grabbed me yet.
