TGS 2007: PlayStation Store soon to be accessible over PC - Image 1 


And the revelations keep flowing from Sony Computer Entertainment's press conference, led by CEO Kaz Hirai. Up on the heels of updates for DualShock 3 and PlayStation Home is the new PC portal for PlayStation Home, which will soon allow users to connect to the service over their PCs.

In a short demonstration, Sony showed a Windows laptop sporting a PlayStation Store interface created for PC users. Of course, Hirai couldn't help but boast virtual shelf numbers during the process: 30 PlayStation 3 games, 300 add-on items, 100 game titles on archive, and a slew of game demos all underline what's served at the portal currently.

Mechanics are still slightly unclear, however, including details as to whether the PlayStation Store was accessed via browser or a stand-alone application. But some customers are beginning to appreciate the fact that they will be able to access the PlayStation Store through PCs for their PlayStation Portables, without needing to own a PlayStation 3.

More details on this and more as they develop.

It isn't a totally GREAT idea, but at least now I don't have to unhook my pc from the net just to throw it on the ps3. I can download demos and put them on my USB hdd and then onto the Ps3.

no router, im a cheap bastard.
