Select PlayStation Plus Subscribers Can Access It Now

The hotly anticipated Hulu Plus service is finally available to a select group of PlayStation Plus subscribers. If you've got access, you'll know it thanks to a message when you turn your system on. If not, you'll be able to download the application and request an invite to the program.

Order 'Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows'

Coming to Blu-ray June 12th

Early posts about the service are generally positive. It's got a few bugs of course, but it's definitely far better executed that the disappointing Netflix service. The user interface is optimized for use with a PS3 controller and doing things like switching picture quality is as simple as tapping R1.

To access the preview, you'll need to be a PlayStation Plus subscriber, but thankfully that's not the case when it comes to the full service. When Hulu Plus launches in full, both Playstation Plus subscribers and non-subscribers will have access. You'll still have to shell out the $10 monthly fee to Hulu Plus of course.
