Nvidia's new announcemnt is amazing:

a new feature called Share, built around streaming gameplay video to Twitch or to a single friend with a direct, encrypted stream. Share’s big selling point is the latter form of streaming, which Nvidia calls GameStream Co-Op; you email a friend an invite to the stream via GFE, and can talk over integrated voice chat, give them direct control of the game, and let them jump in for co-op.

This feature has been on the PS4 for like a year. The 'ol master race is playing catch up...

Or they could have connected previously and played co-op with out need for a 3rd party system or program.

to a streamed game they don't own?

good to know just in case there's ever a PS4 game I'd want to play.

I think you're missing the point. In this scenario you could jump in and play co-op on a game you don't own. And you can be streaming it to a computer that doesn't even have a GPU.

The way I read it means that couch coop only games, just got a second remote player who just needs chrome and a decent connection.

So Gold Box games are out on GOG AND Triple Triad was released for play on iOS and Android phones. What a day!

right right... although further in the article it's saying that Nvidia is gonna limit these sessions to 1 hour for some reason. :\

Sounds like it could be a buffer issue.

Heck man, if we have to reset every hour thats fine. It gives Guacamelee a new lease on life.

So I have (somewhat inexplicably) been getting into digital downloadable games more and more.

I've never gone online with my Sony or Microsoft consoles. PSN looks okay - may snag some PS1 JRPGs if I lack the physical copies (like Suikoden). Can't find much on XBLA that I can't already get elsewhere though.

I don't have a PS4 or Xbone, but I can still go online with the 7th gen systems - right, right?

Even though i fear that it might feed your new digital adiction im gonna be honest. Yes, PSN is still active on PS3.

RGT: I been playing lords of shadow for about... 2.5 hours and it just ok, it dosent hook me. The combat feels very simple despite having a few combos normal enemies can withstand the R2+X grab and bigger enemies just throw dark magic spam random combo, run out of dark magic kill small enemies with the grab, absorb dark magic and continue beating big enemy. Amazing that a game can be underwhelming even when you expect nothing from it.

Maybe i should leave it for months on the shelf and then comeback to it like i did with mirror of fate and then, maybe, i will enjoy it
