Web-Based PlayStation Store Coming To U.S. Later This Month

January 10, 2013

If browsing the PlayStation Store on your computer sounds like a good time, you'll be pleased to know that a web-based version of Sony's gaming marketplace will be coming to the U.S. by the end of the month.

The browser-accessible store is already available in Europe, and allows users to comb through the library of digital products and make purchases. Sony is working to make it so that (eventually) you'll be able to make a purchase from the web and have it automatically start downloading on your PS3. Now that is something I can get behind.

Do you see yourself taking advantage of this web-based store, or is it going to end up being an unnecessary luxury? I could totally see myself using this to nab up the free PS Plus games before they expire should I not have my PS3 handy. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
