Does anyone know how quickly NFL Network programs like 'Americas Game' get uploaded to Game Pass? Would be good to watch this year's Patriots edition before Friday's game.

 

[juss]

Just waiting for the PS4 app to be ready sparkyblue
Reckon it will be good to go to watch a replay of this weekends games?
Also, any idea on how to get it? Have never downloaded apps on the PS4 before

Come on we all know the NFL will troll everyone and have a promo code that has Hayne in it and will only work on the 9ers team pass with an Australian billing address. Because the NFL just wants to give you the finger.

Xbox One should be live in the next couple of days according to the latest info I have from Microsoft. Xbox 360 doesn't have gamepass and Microsoft are releasing that sometime in the next few weeks I believe.

Note: Microsoft build these apps themselves and we provide the content, but that's the latest info I have.

If XBox 360 users (i.e. me) can't use the console to play Gamepass on their TV you probably shouldn't trumpet it on the homepage of the Gamepass website that it's now available.

Should be 45 Days since they first air according to the contract with the Network.

My mistake - I know we don't offer it on Xbox 360 domestically in the US and I'd assumed that was the case internationally. My bad.

Don't have a PS4 personally but I suspect it's a pretty easy download from the PS4 app store as per Netflix, MLB and NBA once we have it in the store - info: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/explore/playstationnetwork/entertainment/.

Haven't got a date for PS4 as yet. Will let you know when I do.

Is it expected to be there for week 1?

I'm not convinced you do, though. From memory last year there was no app other than NFL Now. I can't say for myself this year since I'm in the group holding out for a potential discount code but I'd be disappointed if I signed up with that promise on the site and then it's actually not available for a few weeks.

Are you able to find out if it is actually available for International Gamepass?


For those of us who are hoping for an app for any console, I can say Chromecast casting can be clunky having used it last year, but it's a decent alternative to watch on TV that doesn't involve using a restrictive HDMI cable to your TV from your laptop/PC.

Just confirmed with Microsoft - they're releasing an update for 360 "this week" to enable GamePass International. It should be any time now.

Update: No it won't. Latest indication is that it'll be week 3 or 4 at this stage.

So with no gamepass on the PS4 til week 3/4 does anyone know if the PS4 browser is ok for gamepass or just stick to the PC?

I find the browser on PS4 clunky....if you have a HDMI port on the PC go with that

You can't spend 50 bucks on a chromecast and stream from your phone? Undoubtedly, I've always found this the easiest and most convenient method (although I'm using Apple TV and an iPhone rather than a chromecast.)

I use a chromecast from a phone or tablet and can't imagine using a PS4 or Xbox would be easier than that. If casting from a PC then that's a different story.

That's how I watch AFL these days...

I've got gamepass but at work would prefer to only stream audio - is this an option? Or is it video only these days?

Can you access ESPN Radio from Australia? http://espn.go.com/espnradio/show?showId=nflonespnradio

no dice.

this blows, last year I could listen to any game via audio pass, it was too easy, home or away channels

made missing the game(s) due to being at work so much more bearable (there's only so much time you can spend in the tearoom dunking your teabag before it gets suspicious).

*shakes fist* damn you NFL.

note: if anyone finds a channel that isn't geo-blocked with today's game, either Pittsburgh or New Engalnd channel, please share.

You could also check IHeartRadio - some stations cover games there.

+1 for Chromecast. Easy to use and works well.

Apple TV is awesome
