Today DirecTV and Sony announced a partnership between the two to bring the ever popular NFL Sunday Ticket to the PlayStation 3 Console. Who needs ESPN on your console when you can actually watch the games live. This is probably the best thing to come to the PlayStation 3 in quite some time. For those of you who don’t know NFL Sunday Ticket is the reason why I will never leave DirecTV. I am probably the biggest football fan here at Bifuteki and I for one will be watching Live games on my PlayStation 3.

Hello PlayStation Nation!

Are you ready for some football!

We are excited to announce that PlayStation has partnered with DIRECTV to bring its popular sports subscription service, NFL SUNDAY TICKET, to the PlayStation 3 game console. PlayStation owners across the country will now have the opportunity to watch every out-of-market Sunday game on their PS3.

How do you get in the game? At the start of the season, viewers who do not currently have access to DIRECTV will be able to subscribe to NFL SUNDAY TICKET at the season price of $339.95. Existing DIRECTV customers can access the service on their PS3 for an additional $50 and use the PS3 as an additional receiver for your home.

NFL SUNDAY TICKET is a DIRECTV-exclusive sports package that offers:

• Up to 14 NFL games every Sunday
• Full HD for every football game
• DIRECTV’s Red Zone Channel

We know that PlayStation fans are huge sports enthusiasts, so adding NFL SUNDAY TICKET is the perfect complement to the PS3’s rapidly growing lineup of sports entertainment, including MLB.TV and NHL GameCenter. We’ll have more info, including a video tutorial and sign up information on the blog shortly. I hope you’re as excited for the football season as we are.
