Retro_Link Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 OK cheers. Not sure I like that idea really. Although I'd like to think money wouldn't be so tight in the future that I couldn't re-subscribe, but there's just something about not fully owning a game.
Daft Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) I think I might pick up a couple years. £60 for 2 years of Plus. Honk. Yes. Plus is the best thing since Xbox Live. Homebrew Vita coming soon!? http://wololo.net/2012/09/05/usermode-vita-loader-devs-needed/ Also, what's the point of hacking the Vita for homebrew when the PlayStation Mobile Developer Program is available legitimately from Sony? In fact, this dude seems to have done a couple things on the PMDP - https://www.youtube.com/user/digitalarts001 Edited September 6, 2012 by Daft
Cube Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Also, what's the point of hacking the Vita for homebrew when the PlayStation Mobile Developer Program is available legitimately from Sony? Piracy ?
Sheikah Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Still reeling about the lack of Tombi. What's up with that?
Hero-of-Time Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Still reeling about the lack of Tombi. What's up with that? No blog seems to have mentioned it at all. Most are focused on the lack of Counterstrike.
killer kirby Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) In fact, this dude seems to have done a couple things on the PMDP - https://www.youtube.com/user/digitalarts001 So does that allow me to play any game I want anywhere I want? Also, what's the point of hacking the Vita for homebrew when the PlayStation Mobile Developer Program is available legitimately from Sony? Homebrew also allows english patches on games that won't come out over here, I mean Monster Hunter Portable 3rd eng patch is the sole reason as to why I love my Homebrew PSP Also allow me to play ANY PS1 game (With how powerful Vita is running PS2 games should be easy as well) I don't want to wait for Sony to keep bringing games out on PSN to only buy them again when I have the hard copy right in front of me (Also Dragon Quest VII running on PSP is a God send!) EDIT: Forgot PSP games as well, when one has 20 games, one does not want to buy them all over again just to play them on the Vita Piracy ? Vita needs games first before one can pirate them.

Cube Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 For me, the Vita has more great games than the 3DS.
Daft Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Just sounds so laborious. I haven't even made a dent in the games I've amassed just from Plus over the past few months, I can't imagine how anyone has enough time to get round to really needing or wanting to do this. But if that floats your boat then that's cool. Sony can't really win either way. It gets hacked and developers will definitely not want to support it. It doesn't get hacked, no one's going to buy it...not that anyone is anyway. PS Vita - the portable we deserve but apparently not the one we need right now.
Sheikah Posted September 6, 2012 Posted September 6, 2012 Tombi delayed until the end of the month according to the devs. Oh well... GW2 time!
flameboy Posted September 7, 2012 Posted September 7, 2012 Anyone else in the Dust beta? I got a code like 2 weeks ago but not bothered to download it yet.
Guest Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 If oyu have backlog PSplus only makes things worse. having said the quality and size of games are increasing so it wont get any better. Got to start on RDR now... Anyone else in the Dust beta? I got a code like 2 weeks ago but not bothered to download it yet. I am in the beta. Worth trying out to see the all unique features. Dust does occupy its own unique space but the fps elements right now are rough compared to the other big fps (BF3, MAG, Killzone) besides Firefall beta and Borderlands. Dust is less RPG than those games but it does have very extensive customisation, an auction house, rare drops/rewards etc. It will be free anyhow.
Dcubed Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Disregard... seems that someone said something they shouldn't have... That Tweet should not have been posted, Studio Liverpool is closed, there is no new Wipeout game. Ami Nakajima was not released [i wonder why ], she was just tweeting to say that she "is still alive". Which is pretty tactless. Edited September 17, 2012 by Dcubed
Retro_Link Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Really? I don't like it, much prefer the current Slim. If that had been a transparent disc cover then yeah! But a slide back cover isn't very nice, nor is the design on it. But hey, this version's all about the cost saving. New demo's up today... Currently downloading RE6 and F1 2012
Rowan Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 What can I expect from the MGS HD collection? I've never played the series before but I've won a copy of it and have heard the series is great.
Cube Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes is great. I haven't played 2 and 3 and my experience with 4 made me never want to touch the franchise again (although the hack n slash one looks good).
Grazza Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I've been wanting to get a PS3 for Ni No Kuni, so I suppose the 12GB would be the best version for me.
are1981 Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I prefer - and own - the current slim model; easier to wipe dust off of it.
Sheikah Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 So Tombi is heading our way for Oct 3rd now. Woot - if you have a Vita, be sure to pick this one up. A classic.
Retro_Link Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 More good stuff from Sony. Sony Announces PSN Day 1 Digital Program Full games available on release day. Sony has announced PSN Day 1 Digital, a program that offers titles for download on PlayStation Network the same day they’re available at retail. The program will launch on October 2nd, but players can pre-order games before they become available and PlayStation Plus members will get a 10% discount. The following games have been announced for the program so far: • Resident Evil 6 (October 2 - $59.99) • NBA 2K13 (October 2 - $59.99/$53.99 for Plus members, with pre-order)* • Dishonored (October 9 - $59.99/$53.99 for Plus members, with pre-order)* • Doom 3: BFG Edition (October 16 - $39.99/$35.99 for Plus members, with pre-order)* • 007 Legends (October 16 - $59.99, 10% off week one for Plus members) • Medal Of Honor Warfighter (October 23 - $59.99) • Need For Speed: Most Wanted (October 30 - $59.99/$53.99 for Plus members, with pre-order)* • Assassin’s Creed III (October 30 - $59.99)* * = Available for pre-order “Our upcoming PSN Day 1 Digital lineup in October is exceptional and demonstrates our commitment to delivering the best games to the devoted PlayStation community as soon as they’re available,” said SCEA digital platforms senior director Jack Buser. “Additionally, with our new PlayStation 3 models on the horizon offering up to 500GB of storage, there’s never been a better time to experience PS3 games digitally through PSN.” This strategy has been in place since day one on Vita, and Sony just recently made Borderlands 2 available on PSN day 1. In that case, the game wasn’t available at midnight, launching later in the day instead when the PlayStation Store was updated. There’s no word on if midnight releases will be a part of PlayStation’s digital pre-order future, but read what we want in a PlayStation Store redesign for that feature and more that we’d like to see Sony add.
Cube Posted September 25, 2012 Posted September 25, 2012 Good news for America, where the RRP isn't much different to the in-store prices. However, for us it will be a different story, as the games will likely be £49.99 (so around £44.99 with the Plus discount), whereas in stores they will be £40 or less.

However, for us it will be a different story, as the games will likely be £49.99 (so around £44.99 with the Plus discount), whereas in stores they will be £40 or less. Yep this is very true..Borderlands 2 is actually cheaper on PSN than in some stores once you add tax on it's crazy. Only problem personally is Canada has such strict download limits...none of the big suppliers do unlimited and it's arsehole expensive if you go over. So for now digital as a means of constantly buying games is not an option in a household where plenty of other people use the internet. I've even taking to not downloading all the plus titles whereas before I would just download them on the off chance I fancied playing them.
Sheikah Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 You would think they would let you download the content maybe a day early but not let you run it until the next day. Kinda annoying that you'd have to wait for it to download on the day it's released. Anyone else getting Tombi?
