LOVEFiLM on Playstation3

Pushbutton designed and built the LOVEFiLM app to enable PS3™ users to manage their account, view trailers, read reviews, select Blu-ray discs to be sent through the post and, best of all, have movies streamed directly over the Internet to their PS3™.

When a movie is played on the PS3™, users have all of the controls they would have with a DVD disc – pause, fast forward, stop, rewind, and play. You can search for your favourite actor, genre, or browse pre-selected LOVEFiLM collections. This is a fully interactive service, so when you have viewed the movie, reach for your DualShock and rate it.

At the heart of the LOVEFiLM PlayStation^®3 service is Pushbutton’s powerful Calcium^© engine. This core code enables Pushbutton to develop cross-platform applications, specifically tailored for the TV experience.

Pushbutton’s CEO, Paula Byrne, said “This is a slick and elegant app that PS3 players are going to love. It is also our second SONY app for LOVEFiLM, and we are immensely proud to be associated with these two household names in electronic media.”

The service is now live and is FREE to existing LOVEFiLM customers.
