Sony may bring early access to PS4

The growing popularity of early access programs hasn’t gone unnoticed over at Sony HQ, a new interview with SCE’s Adam Boyes confirms.

“Honestly, we’re working through that right now,” he said. “We’re figuring out what’s okay. We obviously have our tech requirement checklist that people have to adhere to. So we’re internally discussing, what does that list look like for this? What are the caveats? Stuff like this.”

Like many an outraged consumer, Boyes also mentions consumer expectations, the Achilles heel of early access programs. Fortunately, it seems Sony has no interest in promoting terminally unfinished products.

In any case, the notion is very much up in the air. “It’s still a project that a lot of minds are considering. No details yet, but it’s something on the top of my mind every day,” Boyes concluded.
