God of War, ICO HD and Shadow of The Colossus Remote Play Patches Released


Sony has finally started utilising PS Vita remote play, more details inside.........

Article taken from IGN:
Remote Play -- the ability to tether your PlayStation Vita to a PlayStation 3 and access content on that PS3 from anywhere via wifi -- hasn't gotten much use since Sony's handheld debuted. However, PlayStation is looking to change that today with patches for the God of War Collection and The Ico and Shadow of the Colossus Collection.

After installing the free game updates (God of War's is available now but Ico's isn't yet), the Vita can connect to its registered PS3 and play the collections off the console. Extra buttons -- such as R2 and L2 -- are mapped to the rear touch panel. From our brief time with the God of War Collection, Remote Play is easy to setup and works well. Latency doesn't seem to be a problem for Kratos, but that might depend on how strong your wifi connection is.

Let us know if you've tried remote play in the comments below!

I wouldnt get ICO just for ps3, but seeing as you can play it on Vita almost anywhere, its very very tempting!

Was thinking the same thing

Wonder how well it would play over 3G from another location :-)

I own 4 of the 5 GOW games separately (1-3 on ps3, Ghost of Sparta on my vita). I assume this will only work with the GOW Collection, right? Does anyone know if the patch is just for the Collection? Thanks.

Finally sony is starting to roll out remote play I was playing gow2 this morning Hopefully it won't be limited to hd collections

Doesn't work as it should... the delay between commands and reaction on the game are such, that it makes it impossible to play... Remote Play, not a reality yet...

Hey Husnain, sent you an email to admin@psvitahub , well actually 4 emails, they're all pretty short.

Its a shame remote play did not happen (as of yet anyway) - I think SONY were serious about it but ran into some issues with other partys. the Playstation mobile App is ok, has alot of potential but at the moment is very buggy.

I noticed the "via wifi" part, does that mean not with 3g? I am happy work is being put into my beautiful machine but the pace is dreadful. I want to buy 3g but still haven't found a good reason to, after 5 months at that. I keep hearing "it's a ten year plan, give it time' well at this point it has been almost a year and am feeling a sense of disappointment.

Ah, just realized I can test this out tonight with my disc copy of the GOW Collection. I was thinking it was for GOW Saga only. I hate to admit it, but I haven't finished GOW 2 yet...this should be motivation enough to get more play time in.

It does work I was playing gow2 from the gow collection this morning. The cut scenes were a little bit laggy but it was pretty good.

How did you get it to work? i am using remote play with my GOW disc and it says it cant be used during remote play. i tryed playing it on the ps3 to see if there is a game update but there wasnt... do i update my vita or something?

Dangerwildpants said...

God of War is working perfectly with my PS Vita ^_^ I hope they also do this to other games...

Xora said...

Geddyboy said...

I have a PS3, but why would i wnt to play my games on a 5 inch screen over a 50 inch, with commands lag? 

Loveallstart said...

Because you can not bring in a 50inch display while u shit!

SR said...

How well does this work? I do have the games, just don't have the time to do it with taking care of my son.
