Finally the media remote is coming out

[Titan]

Just saw this. Looks pretty cool and its supposed to be officially licensed. You can control your TV and other devices if they are compatible. And a 30 dollar price point ain't bad. Sorry for lack of quote. Can't quote the article easily on my phone :/

So is this only worth while if you're into using the Blu-Ray players and apps like netflix

Pretty much. It's like the bluray remote for the PS3. If you use your PS4 for media, this is worth it. Can't use it for gaming.

Not sure why the old one would not work, buttons are pretty much identical on the PS4 controller.

I will be buying one, it is frustrating to use the controller... at least till you figure it out. I do not watch enough movies on my PS4 to remember what does what, was a real headache yesterday watching a bluetooth and trying to rewind.

Been away for a while but glad to be back. Falling back in love with my ps4 (sorry if I bump old posts till I get caught up)

I've seen a couple third party media remotes but been waiting for an official one. Can't wait for this will be a definite buy for me

Sony claims it's a hardware thing with the way the programmed the controllers and peripherals on the PS3 and the PS4. The PS3 peripherals could not be made to work with the PS4. I've read the technical stuff but it goes over my head. Basically, incompatibility on a very technical level.

Bump all the old posts you want. Today is the first day I've been logged onto the forum myself instead of Tapatalk (and I mostly just lurked) so I'm playing catch up too
