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.

This should be a nice edition to the PS3, but they should focus on bringing it to the PS4 since it's newer.

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

Gossip I don't get why they're still supporting old gen.


You'd be surprised how much people still play it, a Lot


A lot would rather play old gen lol.....


In time the next gen consoles will be what everyone has.


Lots of people still play/buy Ps3 hell i still play the Ps2.


I also jump on the PS2 from time to time. It may be an old console but it has some amazing games on it never the less

I guarantee over 50% of gamers still play old gen... They either can't afford the new systems straight away or just don't want to move on. Personally, I still play 360, I haven't even bought an Xbone or PS4 but PS4 is definitely my number one choice. I also hop on Star Wars: Battlefront every now and then.


Most people i know have switched to PC due to the cost of the consoles.

Potion Hopefully they will put it up on Xbox One, so i can watch all my HBO shows on my new console.


You could always plug in your TV, then you'd get all your HBO shows and even more channels.

I wish they would hurry up and bring it to Xbox One. It was supposedly going to be released last month but that obviously did not happen.
