but how will the load times be?

I think the average is 30-45 seconds on PS3, depending on your internet connection.
Mine will probably be about 2 seconds.

They are just going to stream/buffer it. The work will be done server side, and they will stream the video to you.
I don't see how it can be done without some fairly serious video artifacts due to the video compression, but we'll see.

I never got an invite

Where in the world can I sign up for this??

Me neither, and I'm me.
But apparently the PS4 is separate from the PS3 so we could still get invites and those in the PS3 one aren't automatically in the PS4 one. Have to get invited again.
Could you guys write me a letter of recommendation I can forward to Playstation? Just highlight my work on here, should be plenty.

Did you get a code?
Posted on 5/20/14 at 3:47 pm to finchmeister08
I did. However, for some dumb reason it tells me that it's ready for download but I can't download it. Maybe it's not up yet.

Did you sign up or randomly get it
