Spotify for Playstation 4

spotify-playstation

One of the major advancements in gaming in the previous generation (for specifically the Xbox 360) is in the way in which music was implemented into the console ecosystem. The Xbox 360 allowed gamers the use of “custom soundtracks” which, when activated, over wrote the game’s soundtrack and sound effects and allowed you to listen to your own music instead. It was perfect for a number of games, specifically sports titles.

The Playstation 4 has taken this a step further though, while it doesn’t allow you to listen to your own music off your hard drives, but it allows you to listen to the insanely popular Spotify service. You can build your own playlists specifically for games, or just listen to Spotify radio while you play Call of Duty. You can listen to Kanye West while playing Pro Evolution Soccer, listen to Michael Jackson while enjoying the latest game in the Dragon Age franchise. It’s a simple change, but already the service has over two million downloads and it’s growing fast. Consoles are quickly becoming the perfect living room accessory.
