Magnus Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 I'm interested in XCOM, but I think I would rather play it on PC? I wasn't expecting much from this announcement, to be honest. I figured it'd either be games I've already played or games I'm not interested in.
flameboy Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Kind of crap about the long term titles. Even though I predicted it right before it happened I'm not so fussed about Little Big Planet Racing. Nearly bought Xcom a few months back so I'm happy about that.
Retro_Link Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 Bugger. I was just thinking today I shouldn't have bought Uncharted 3 yet.
Rowan Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 LBP Karting - tried the beta and thought it was ok. Might be willing to give it another try. XCOM - Giant Bomb seemed to love it and have heard praises from other places so willing to give it a go even though it's a genre that I don't typically play. Uncharted 3 - already have it. @Retro_Link The PS+ version of Uncharted 3 is the single player only. So it doesn't come with the full multiplayer that's available on disc. (Hope that softens the blow).

Cube Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 (Probably not because the multiplayer is free download anyway :p) With level caps, reduced features and adverts.
Shorty Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 I actually really liked the XCOM demo so was thinking of picking it up at some point LBP Karting might actually mean I dust off my second Dual Shock 3 for a bit....
Retro_Link Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Ohhh XCOM is the game that actually got quite a few GameOfTheYear nods. Supposed to be very good isn't it. Not sure it's my type of game though.
Daft Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Yeah, quite please with XCOM. Need to delete stuff off my HDD. Can't wait until the PS4 arrives and you can start playin games as soon as you start downloading them - I won't have to worry about deleting things so much.
Cube Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Can't wait until the PS4 arrives and you can start playin games as soon as you start downloading them - I won't have to worry about deleting things so much. I didn't think of that - it sounds brilliant for PS+. Although it will be a bit annoying having to keep both consoles active to make full use of the subscription. Although they'll probably slowly phase out the PS3's plus. It will probably depend on how many Plus subscribers move onto the PS4 in the first 6 months.
V. Amoleo Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Playing games as soon as you start downloading them? I must have missed that feature. Sounds like what Microsoft tried doing with the PC a while ago which let you play as you install. Aren't we all making assumptions that PlayStation Plus will include the PS4? What's to say they won't do a separate (or a premium) version for the PS4? I can't see them wanting to do a subscription model with PS4 games straight away.
Daft Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 They've already said Plus will have a prominent role on PS4. I'm sure they'll add another tier for stuff like Gaikai. Or maybe that'll just be a separate service.
flameboy Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 FInished Just Cause 2 last night really enjoyed it. Now on to something else from plus back log. Maybe Sleeping Dogs. So many to play!
Tales Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 FInished Just Cause 2 last night really enjoyed it. Now on to something else from plus back log. Maybe Sleeping Dogs. So many to play! They are both awesome games. Funny thing is, if it hadn't been for Plus, I wouldn't even know they existed.
Happenstance Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Apparently theres a new PS3 firmware available for download but people have been reporting bricked consoles afterwards so it'll probably be best to wait on getting it until word from Sony.

The update has been pulled. However, if your console has auto-downloaded it, do not install.
dwarf Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 So after Beyond and GTA V, will that be it for the PS3?
Cube Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 So after Beyond and GTA V, will that be it for the PS3? Puppeteer, Rain, GT6, a load of third party multiplatform games. Perhaps The Last Guardian.
bob Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Considering they only just stopped making games for the PS2, i think it'll be a while before they stop releasing games on the PS3.
Happenstance Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Its expected there will be more cross gen games released this time around as well.
Cube Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 PlayStation Russia have posted the next few months of PS+ on a Russian social media site. July: Battlefield 3 (PS3) Payday: The Heist (PS3) Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus (Vita) Unit 13 (Vita) August: DmC: Devil May Cry (PS3) Spec Ops: The Line (PS3) Little King's Story (Vita) When Vikings Attack (Vita) Looks like this was almost correct. 3rd July: Battlefield 3 3rd July: Payday: The Heist 3rd July: Saints Row the Third 3rd July: Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus 3rd July: Unit 13
Rowan Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Another excellent month. Will give all 3 PS3 games a try.
flameboy Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Well already have Payday but the other two am super excited about! Anyone read the reports on new firmware (meaningless update largely, you can turn off trophy notifications) is bricking systems. I know mine is set to auto download them so worried to switch it on.
