Similar to the XBone family program that was canned I think.

PS4′s digital library lets you play your games anywhere & on anyone’s console


Speaking at Develop, Neil Brown, Sony’s R&D senior team leader, outlined the process that lets you access your games on other machines at other people’s houses:

“You can visit your friends house you can log into your account and play any game from your digital library, which is good. But how useful is that if it takes half a day to download the game you want to play? With Play As You Download you get much quicker access to at least the first section of the game so you can start playing quicker. So this makes a digital library a practical option in the real world.”

He also explained more about how the same system means you’ll never have to wait for games to install. Instead you can play instantly but still benefit from the faster loading and streaming from PS4′s hard drive thanks to more background processes:

“A similar system also works on Blu-ray, chunks are automatically copied to the hard drive in the background. This means that after the first few minutes your game can rely on having faster read speeds from the hard drive. Which provides a better experience for players, and this is a completely background process for the player. They don’t have to wait for anything to install before playing the game. The game will launch as soon as the disk has been put in the drive.”

Umm, can't we already do this on PS3 and 360?   The only thing new is the "play as you download" thing.

Im sure if Insomniac was using Jak that Naughty Dog would have some input.

Sucker Punch gave their blessing to Sanzaru, as they said that would be the only way theyd have worked on Sly 4.

If it is an Insomniac game, would that mean they have 3 teams? Fuse, Sunset-Overdrive, and this game... thats what makes me a little hesitant that it's them.

Ratchet and Clank are back! The beloved duo return with an original single-player epilogue to the acclaimed Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time. Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus is a story-driven platform adventure with humor and heart, featuring outrageously upgraded weapons, extreme planet hopping and brand new worlds begging to be explored. Into the Nexus marks a true return to form for the acclaimed series.

After one of the most infamous manhunts in galactic history results in the capture of Vendra Prog, Ratchet and Clank offer to escort the dangerous criminal to the Vartax Detention Center. After a daring orbital jailbreak at the forgotten edge of the galaxy, Ratchet and Clank find themselves lost in an abandoned sector. There, in deepest space, they uncover an inter-dimensional event that threatens the universe—and forces Ratchet to decide what’s really important.

Features:

A return to the Future – Series protagonists, Ratchet and Clank, return along with Captain Qwark, Talwyn, Cronk and Zephyr in a brand-new, story-driven single-player adventure.


Even more crazy weapons and gadgets for your arsenal– Arm yourself with a variety of exotic new weapons and gadgets, including the Winterizer and Nether Blades.


Clank strikes back – All-new gameplay offers inter-dimensional challenges where Clank can alter gravity, manipulate objects and solve mind-bending platforming puzzles.


Discover new worlds… and the dangers of space – Traverse through the zero-gravity of space and explore a mysterious sector filled with new planets to explore along with hidden dangers and dark secrets yet to be uncovered

Is a bundle for a ps3 with uncharted 3 another bonus game and a year of ps plus worth it at this time?

I'm thinking that if the subtitle is Into the Nexus then this all just about the next generation Ratchet and Clank title. Worlds are probably literally colliding in the game, as opposed to everyone thinking that multiple game franchises will be crossing over.

Yes sir, PS3's will still be worth a buy at least for the 16 months. Sony is still supporting the system.

I've not played any of the ps2 games but Tools of Destruction and A Crack in Time were brilliant. I'll recommend both even with Tools not having Trophies.
