PlayStation's official Twitter has just announced that you'll soon be able to stream PS4 games to your console, expanding on this a little more on the PlayStation blog.

PlayStation now currently lets you stream 483 PlayStation 3 games to your PC and PS4, but this catalogue expansion will include PS4 games. In the next few weeks PlayStation will conduct private tests with PS4 games via PS Now, and they ask for people to keep an eye on their email in case they get an invitation.

"If you're new to PS Now, the subscription service offers access to a large and ever-expanding library of games. Since PS Now utilizes our cloud streaming technology, you can access the entire catalog of games, select one, and start playing quickly without needing to wait for downloads," the blog explains. "Also, PS Now uses cloud saves, letting you start a game on PS4 and continue playing on another PS4 or even a Windows PC (or vice versa). If you haven't given the service a try yet, now's the perfect time to give it a spin with the seven-day free trial."

What do you think of this new concept? Forward-thinking, or not that big a deal?
