PS Playtime vs Pyroblast

PS Playtime is a free web tool for checking time played on PlayStation games. It retrieves public data from PlayStation Network for PS4 and PS5 titles. To run a lookup, enter a PlayStation Network online ID or display name; the search is case-sensitive. No registration is required, and PS Playtime says it never asks for a PlayStation password, email, or login credentials. The library view shows each game’s hours played, first played date, and last played date, with sorting by playtime or most recently played. The game library and playtime must be publicly visible for access. Every lookup fetches current information from PlayStation Network, and gaming lookup data is not permanently stored on PS Playtime’s servers. Older PS3-era games and games played offline for long periods may have incomplete data. The terms allow access to be limited or blocked to protect the service from excessive requests or harmful scraping. PS Playtime describes itself as an independent fan-made tool, not affiliated with Sony Interactive Entertainment or PlayStation.

Pyroblast is a browser-based service for bringing gaming activity from Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox into one profile. It detects and logs sessions without manual input, recording the game, start time, and duration. Connected libraries, playtime, achievements, and rankings appear together, with trophies and achievements collected in an achievement vault. Its Global Arena has boards for achievements, mastery of game difficulty, and lifetime play hours. Players can also review timelines, streaks, habits, play patterns, and a year-in-review recap. The service may generate AI-powered gameplay summaries, recommendations, and profile descriptions. Profiles can be public or private, and only public ones appear in the Arena. Pyroblast says it uses authorised platform APIs and permissions users grant, does not circumvent platform privacy settings, and does not sell or share data with third parties. It is free to start at free, with connections for Steam, PlayStation, and Xbox. The terms require users to be at least 16 years old; the current homepage describes browser access, while desktop and mobile applications are described as future offerings.
