PlayStation TV US Release Date Confirmed, Here is What You Need to Know before Buying a PS TV, Specs, Features, and Price

PlayStation TV will be available in the US on October 14, and future users can expect the PS TV to be released with almost 700 games on the same day.

The device was already released in Japan since November 14 last year, while other Southeast Asian countries received the device on January 16 this year. Although these markets accepted the device rather well, here is what you need to know before you decide to purchase your own PS TV device.

PS TV is very sleek and compact. It's smaller than most smartphones today. It weighs only 3.9 ounces, and measures 4.134 inches in length. It will also need a memory card to have your own storage. Also, the games you can play with the device are limited; it doesn't play every PS Vita game. It also doesn't stream all the entertainment you'd expect, such as Netflix, Hulu Plus, and YouTube. Sometimes you'll encounter errors streaming them, even though you can download the files to your TV. Yet, let us wait for the actual release of the devices in the US, as there may already be updates or changes.

Basically, PlayStation TV is a microconsole that can be linked to your television using an HDMI cable, allowing you to download games from the PlayStation Store, and play without the traditional disc system. You can also download games from the upcoming 'PlayStation Now' streaming service that's about to launch with the PS TV.

PlayStation Plus members will receive more benefits, as they will be able to access the Instant Game Collection, get discounts at the PlayStation Store, and save games online, among others.

As for the price, the PlayStation TV will cost you $99.99.

Some of the games that will be available for the PlayStation TV during the launch are Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster, Borderlands 2, the God of War collection, Rayman Origins, Twisted Metal, Killzone: Mercenary and so on.

If you visit the Walmart, you'll find the limited edition of the microconsole. It will come as a bundle pack, including a wireless DualShock 3 controller, The LEGO Movie game, and an 8GB memory card. The whole set will only cost you $139.99.
