HBO Go app coming to PS3 soon, PS4 to follow

4.6
PlayStation will soon enter the HBO Go family, with apps for the service coming to the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. Home Box Office CEO Richard Plepler announced the news at the first Buzzfeed Brews event in New York.

With the app, HBO cable subscribers can enjoy unlimited on-demand content. According to a post on the official PlayStation Blog, the app is "coming soon" and will arrive first on PS3 before eventually making its way to the PlayStation 4. A timetable was not shared, but the announcement made mention of the impending fourth season of Game of Thrones, which will begin in April.

The Xbox 360 is currently the only video game console with HBO Go access, featuring special second-screen content alongside select videos.

Cokes Why put so much focus on the PS3. The PS4 should hold their attention.


I guess for the people that aren't switching.


This is true. A lot of people don't want to get a whole new bundle of games so they're sticking with the Playstation 3.


I could see a lot of people holding out on switching to a current generation console as there are not many games out for them either.


I'm holding out.

Personally my Xbox 360 still runs fine and there are heaps of cool games still that aren't dead at all.

I'm waiting for a price drop as well as more game releases on the next gen consoles.


Me to, the games on the 360 are still coming out, so until that stops, i dont want a XBONE.
