PlayStation TV Review And Giveaway

Sony’s PlayStation Vita isn’t exactly setting the handheld world on fire in terms of sales, but it is a solid console with a decent lineup of games. It also plays quite nicely with the PlayStation 4, with games available via Cross-Buy and remote streaming possible. With the hardware not selling at a staggering rate, it makes sense that Sony would try to find another way to use the tech that powers it –and that’s exactly what the PlayStation TV does.

PlayStation TV is a Vita tucked inside an Apple TV-like device. Is it worth buying? Does it deliver a solid gameplay experience with Vita games, PS1 classics, and streaming from the PS4? Does it have a strong entertainment offering outside of gaming? All these questions and more will be answered in this review!

Best of all, we’re giving a PlayStation TV away to one lucky reader! Keep reading through to the bottom of this review to enter for your chance to win!
PSTV1 PlayStation TV Review And Giveaway

Sony’s PlayStation TV was released several months ago in Japan with the name Vita TV. In the west, the Vita has not seen great success, and the PlayStation 4 is currently leading in the console battle, so it makes sense that Sony rebranded the device with the PlayStation name instead. Name changes aside, there’s no different between the two devices. It’s a small, Apple TV-like device, at least from appearance. It’s reasonably cheap, coming in with a $79 price tag.

The emphasis is more heavily placed on gaming, putting it more in line with the Amazon Fire TV, but it’s lacking in the media department, a fact that we will get to later in the review.

The main purpose of the PlayStation TV is two fold. First, it’s a device made for playing Vita games on a TV. Second, it’s meant to give gamers a way to play PlayStation 4 games in a room where their console isn’t. Portable games on a large TV is something that will definitely have limited appeal, but that, along with the ability to stream PS4 games, makes the idea behind this device at least seem logical in theory.
