Hmm... interesting. if I put it on my ipad, how big is the resolution? a full screen worth?

 

If this works in Canada AND for Apple TV it may be worth it.

 

So you could mirror it to your TV, right?

 

Jailbreak your ATV. Best thing I've ever done.

 

Yes.

Only concern with this feature is its still streaming and will probably look bad if you have a bad connection.

 

I got it for free....

 

Honestly, it doesn't matter if you have a good connection or not with the DTV streaming stuff. It's hit or miss on quality. In my past experience using the Sunday Ticket steaming on devices, the afternoon games could either be fine, or completely unwatchable and I have a hard wire connection. To the people thinking about getting this promo, I am not saying don't do it, as it is a good deal, just don't think the experience will be flawless.

 

It can't be worse than going the firstrow route. I think its a great deal if you were planning on getting Madden. You're paying essentially $40 bucks for Sunday Ticket.

 

agreed, firstrow should be a last ditch resort. But like you said, it is a great deal if you were going to get madden anyway. That's like getting access to every game for less than $5 a week. Even with the hiccups one will have, it would still be worth it.

 

Holy ****. That sounds fantastic. Basically paying $40 for NFL ticket. I might have to get my roommate in on this so we can split it.

 

If you can stream from your ps3 it's awesome deal. Madden $60 anyway so $40 to watch phins is a great deal

 

I too wonder if this is possible. I'm not sure about the PS3 web browser. I can't imagine it running certain codecs or flash even. Too bad there isn't an app like there is with Netflix.

 

There was a direct tv app last year I believe

 

Well this might be perfect. I was going to set up a 2nd computer to stream it but might not have too.

 

Yeah like gilv said the quality is hit or miss. I would use DTV online access to stream the games to my computer when I had to and it wasn't the best picture most of the time. But If I was going to get madden and didn't live local I would still recommend it. Best option though is a sling box if you know someone who either has the Ticket or lives local.

 

Ordered, its a no brainer. This is well worth it even without the game. If the streams are similar to the quality I get from my dish sling I will be very happy.

 

Here is the FAQs from EA's website. If you scroll down halfway through you'll get the answer:

Can I use this service to access NFL Sunday Ticket on my PS3?

This service is available on your computer, mobile and tablet applications only.

Never hurts trying to put enter the code anyway on the PS3. Maybe it does work just the same and they just don't want to promote it.

 

I have had Sunday Ticket streamed to my hard wire connection the past 2 seasons. The first season wasn't great, especially early in the year. I have a feeling DTV might have been throttling back the bandwidth a bit. But it was pretty much fine after the first few weeks, and better last year. You still get the occasional freeze-up or lost connection, but overall the quality was good.

 

Pretty sure all you need is an HDMI cord to connect your computer to your TV to see the games through your TV right?

 

Agree with this. Some small hiccups, but overall the experience was great.

Wow I just scored an even better deal for myself :) Ordered the PS3 Anniversary Edition of the Game, and Grand Theft Auto 5 for 159.99 than it popped up asking if I wanted to open a Chase credit card and instantly get $50.00 credit. (Just follow this through!) So I applied and got instant $50.00 credit...

So they billed me a total of $119.00 for GTA5, Madden, and Sunday Ticket (shipping included) (I used the PC code last year on PS3 and worked fine! - I think this is the same!?) Now I know alot of you are no way opening a credit card.. Well your right but I have the cash sitting here to pay it off right now, just need to wait for the first bill and pay it off instantly.... than close it down.. (Just make sure you do!)

 

That's a deal breaker for me if you can't use ps3

 

I'm pretty sure you'd be much better off leaving the card open and paid off then closing it down within a month or so if it just opening.

 

I've got my big screen TV connected to my computer via HDMI and it works great if the stream and your internet speeds are good.

 

damn already preordered my copy of Madden, got it at Gamespot, at least I get the 49ers legend pack by preordering there

 

Agreed. Credit scores don't take kindly to that type of thing.

 

Now if only EA would start making Madden again for PC! :angry:

 

Yup, me too... a 50 foot cable at that, given my PC is in a different room.

 

I read this on a site, I know everything you read isn't true so don't go there. I just want to make sure and don't want anyone here lose $$$. It's having to do with HDCP.



This is what some user said about this.


Guys, be careful when you order this hoping to stream from your iPad/laptop online. I thought you could do the same thing and pre-ordered the game from Amazon too. However, after talking to my brother in law, who’s a huge tech guy, and digging around on the internet, it turns out that you can’t stream the ticket to your TV like that. It has something to do with the NFL not allowing it. You can still watch it on your wireless devices, but you just can’t run it through the TV. I’ll try to find the article and post it here.

I scrolled down and found this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection[/URL]

I have read that the NFL is Allowing this stream so it is legal, but wondering it it will work.

Here is the site I read it on.

As far as I know, the package is Sunday Ticket Maxx, which includes the Redzone channel.

 

I work in the credit card industry, opening and closing a credit card in a short amount of time will have a huge negative impact on your fico score. Heck even closing down an account you had for years will have a negative impact. I would suggest keeping it open, but dont use it for more than you can afford to pay back, paying your outstanding balance off by due date will eliminate and interest charges.

 

Ordered.

If I can't acess it through PS3 browser, I wool be okay using HDMI to TV.

So stoked, great deal, just one trip to the sports bar will cost close to 40
