Here at RotoRob.com, our generosity of spirit sits at near legendary proportions thanks to the innumerable giveaways and contests we’ve run over the years. This time, however, we’re simply serving as the messengers for anyone looking to pre-order a PlayStation 4 before it hits this fall. While a lot of places have blown through their launch edition allotment, the folks at WalMart’s GameCenter have your back with systems and bundles.

To check out what they’ve got on offer simply go here.

Being able to use the headphones in conjunction with multiple systems comes at a cost in that it’s not as slick or visually undetectable as you might like. The transmitter needs to be plugged in to both your console of choice and the back of your TV, and it only offers a red/white connection.

Let’s get to the biggest attraction in GameCenter — live streaming of every NHL game, in many cases with both home and away feeds. If you’ve used GameCenter on a web browser, you know the interface can be a little clunky at times. Fortunately, the PS3 version is actually fairly streamlined. After loading the app, you get a catalog selection of each of the day’s games, along with viewing options. You can view the home feed, away feed, a condensed version of the game (usually edited down to 10-to-15 minutes), or a highlight package. If you’re joining in during the game, you have the option to watch the game live or start from the beginning, and if it’s after the fact, all of the aforementioned viewing options are available. Note that the highlights and condensed versions do take some time to be made available. more
