Anyone who's purchased a PlayStation Vita has plenty to complain about. The console's disappointing library and proprietary memory cards are at the top of the list, but there is one feature that Vita owners have always been able to brag about: Remote Play.
However, thanks to a plucky, young hacker, many smart phone users now have the ability to play Bloodborne while sitting on the toilet. Remote Play now works on most Android phones.
To be fair, the app isn't perfect. There are some lag issues, and there's no guarantee that it'll work with your device. But according to Kotaku, the application has been tested on several Samsung devices, Nvidia's Shield(s), and the Moto X.
And it's free, so there's really no drawback.
So, how does it work? Well, a user named Twisted89 simply ported Sony's official PS4 Remote Play app to any phone running Android 4.0 or higher. Until this week, this app was available exclusively on Sony's Xperia devices, but Twisted89 tore the walls down.
He even spent some time coding support for the PS4's DualShock 4. So, now you can simply plug a controller into your phone and play.
