Get ready to embrace a game-changing twist to the conventional gaming controller. Netflix is turning the spotlight onto a device that already has an unbreakable bond with your hands – your smartphone. This will mean that your phone becomes the controller, allowing you to navigate through virtual realms. If you are a PC or Mac user, use Netflix.com and on supported browsers, you’ll be able to use your keyboard and mouse instead. This is clearly the better option, most systems that try to use a phone as a controller end up being very problematic, there’s no real substitute for a real tactile controller and without trying this beta it’s safe to say the code isn’t cracked yet.
