Now there's an easier way for you to hook up with other Push Square members to play your games – courtesy of the PlayStation 4's brand new Communities feature. Alright, a lack of foresight on Sony's part means that it's actually not all that easy to join in on the fun, but we've spent the day figuring out a handful of ways that you can work around Sony's decision to not include a bloody search button.
So, a lucky few of you will have already been invited to the Community. If you didn't get a message from this author or another member of staff, then we still love you – we just didn't have you on our friends list. There are other ways for you to get in, though: seek out the PlayStation Network profile 'get2sammyb' – that's your humble host – and you should be able to find the community there.
We'd also encourage you all to invite people that you know are regular readers of the site, allowing us to build up a bigger presence on the platform. The functionality's all a bit basic right now, but it should allow you to make friends and arrange games with other readers a bit easier. Plus, it's just cool having the site featured on the system, isn't it? Hopefully the manufacturer expands upon this functionality.

Just to add here: I'm happy to receive friend requests from anyone, just please mention that you're from Push Square in your message. I won't accept otherwise.
Awesome stuff sammy! Will do that tomorrow, just finished gaming for the night.
Would love to get in on this !
A great idea with a feature still as young as this one
Awesome
I'm so there!
It's a pretty cool and easy to use feature.
@get2sammyb you have a lot of platinum's my guy!
I'll definitely join as soon as I get a PS4. Which hopefully is soon enough.
Anyone know if you can access the community features on the PS App?
@DerMeister Same here, though I probably won't own a PS4 until Fall 2016, unless Sony sells the 1TB light model at $300-$350 this November.
I don't have a PS4 yet, I still plan to get one.
just joined AND added you sammy!
btw try as i might, i absolutely cannot seem to stop using my facebook profile pic (ON PS4). any help would be super appreciated. thanks
Just signed up great site
Joined the community....
@get2sammyb where was my invite eh? I thought we were friends...
Edit: it is entirely possible I received an invite and missed it. Pretty sure I did get a message notification pop up while I was playing that I forgot to check...
Like it ❤️
Great news, will add today.
Hey Push Square- long time listener, first time caller here.
This sounds like a great idea; definitely going to join up and actually start posting comments, too...
I don't really like online multiplayer but I guess I'll join the community anyway.
@wittypixel Check our @Batman's profile if you think I've got a lot. He's insane!
Joined! I'm CanUQuack47 if anyone wants to add me, mostly play PES, GTA and Rocket League but I'll be playing more games as they release
@SteveButler2210 I think I did invite you, yeah. Just go on my profile and you should find the community there.
I saw a bit of this yesterday and joined the Metal Gear community. Will definitely seek out PushSquare and join in on the fun.
Thanks for the invite @get2sammyb who knows we may actually get to have a game of something sometime. I also added or sent invites to 85% of the exchange thread people so I have like 94 pushsquare members in my friends list.
I'll be sure to join tonight when In home from work.
Are communities cross region? I'll find out tonight if I can join from Canada.
Also STILL no wishlist or gifting via PS store. WTF Sony.
@Mega-Gazz They are, yes.
Excellent!
Just joined the community. Hope to see you guys soon on PS4
My PSN is TKP_1st if anyone is curious lol
That's pretty cool! I'll send a friend request. I'm new to this board , just started this year..
Long time Pushsquare reader here. Just joined the community and just registered! Thanks Sammy!
Cool beans, I'll join when I get home from work
Puffy
I'm in the US so there's the time zone difference, but if anyone wants to add me I'm over at "glassmusic".

@Gamer83 You and I would make awesome "friends that never interact" on PSN.
@Mergatro1d Definitely add your voice to the mix. I don't comment a ton but I do if I have something that I either feel adds to the discussion or if I think I might be able to get a chuckle out of anyone. They put up with me.
How could they not of added a search function.. Madness!!
Sent a request and joined the community! Thanks for setting up the community, Sammy!
i was able to find it luckily i think i even posted my video in there.
I'll be joining you guys and starting the "Punch Square" fighting game community this evening.
@get2sammyb I sent a friend notification
@glassmusic
Yeah, pretty much all I do is just look and see what trophies friends have earned and if somebody shares a video I'll watch it. I don't really care for online multiplayer though. I had a good bit of fun playing the Destiny beta with a couple guys from here but it's not something I could see myself doing on a consistent basis.
Anyway, if you want to send a friend request my username is NYYanks21
@glassmusic thanks dude, will do! I like how the pushsquare boards are pretty friendly places. I got fed up of posting on some other sites because you can't voice an opinion without being shot down. As my mother never said, opinions are like bums- we've all got them.
Nice! I'll be sure to join this weekend.
@get2sammyb I checked his profile and fainted right after.... I assumed they didn't let people like that onto PSN lol
@get2sammyb I love how open and social you are with the Push Square readers and community!
