Just started Spec Ops. I don't play shooting games like CoD or Battlefield because shooting just to shoot doesn't interest me. A story to go along with it and it gets much more interesting. I quite like the "sci fi" version of Dubai. Very interesting starting point. This alone can excuse anything the game throws at me later. Still early in the campaign(ch 6) I think this will be one of many games I would never pick up for 1£ but I play it to check out the PS+ release and end up enjoying it.

 

I have never played Mafia before, let alone knowing what genre it is. Can't really say if I have played NFS before. I have always seen it as the definition of a racing game, but never actually played any of them. Looking forward to trying.

 

Without PS+ I wouldn't know Just Cause and Sleeping Dogs even existed, let alone bother to check it out. What a great service. Please tell me you have finished Kingdoms of Amalur :p

The thing about Need for Speed is that it's actually one of the most diverse franchises out there. When people say "they're all the same" they probably haven't even looked of them.

 

Need for Speed is essentially a brand name which holds different franchises. ProStreet, Undercover, Shift, Nitro, World, Hot Pursuit, The Run and Most Wanted are very different games. Shift got its own sequel.

I really like these movie of the week deals :)

 

This last week it was Wreck it Ralph and it was The hobbit the week before. 99p is handy for a quick rental. Makes having left Lovefilm so much easier. I cant understand why Lovefilm doesnt get much in the way of new movies.

Puppeteer demo incoming.

 

A demo for Sony Japan's Puppeteer will be heading to the EU PlayStation Network later this month, and it'll be available first for PlayStation Plus subscribers.

 

Announced a couple of months ago - but not dated - Sony Japan will be "packing loads of content into the demo" for the Puppeteer, which will be exclusively available for PS Plus punters to download on August 21st.

 

Regular non-PlayStation Plus PSN users will be able to pick up the Puppeteer demo from the EU Store a week later on August 28th, ahead of the game's launch on September 13th. A demo for the US has yet to be confirmed, but is likely.

There's movies?

 

Lol wmsame thing here I only found out through the sen store website. It's also on the psblog. I am researching alternatives to lovefilm. You still can't beat the quality of blu ray though.

 

I should really look to renew my PS+ subscription, im pretty sure it runs out soonish.

 

Yeah Shane Sony aren't doing any deals. I might get a card from somewhere.

Yesterday I was playing PES and there was an incident where the PS3 (launch slim) skipped frames. Today as soon as a match ended it switched itself off and the console had a flashing red light. I managed to switch it back on after spamming the power button but is this the beginning of the end of it?:red:

My launch model NTSC PS3 has been making really loud fan noises most of the time it's on for the past few months at least, I figure it's now time for me to buy a Slim model (not super slim) so that I can keep playing PS3 games without worrying and so that I don't make it YLOD as I still have some NTSC PS2 games that I'd like to play on it.

 

I really don't feel like opening it up atm, if I'm honest I don't want to buy a new PS3 but I have had this one since 2007, that's pretty good going surely? :)

 

-----------------------------------------------------------

 

Annnnnd... I've taken the plunge, ordered a 'New' PS3 slim 320 GB - apparently only taken out of the box to photograph - for £150, it seemed like a good deal being that the Slim is nicer than the rather cheap looking super-slim, plus they are most likely getting harder to find new now so it makes sense being that I will have at least 3 or 4 'Tales of...' games to play through plus a handful of other titles.

 

I've heard that transferring everything to a new system is simple enough too, all you need is a standard ethernet cable, the latest firmware on both machines, change a few settings and you're away with the transfer.

 

Hopefully everything will be ok now and I'll be able to enjoy my PS3 games for a while longer. :)

I really hope those high starting prices go when we move over to the PS4

 

They might as well lower the prices, otherwise what's the point? Especially for multiformat/arcade game releases, if they overcharge on those then most people will just buy them on Steam where it's cheaper.

 

As for the PS4 exclusive games, it's anyone's guess but I would like to hope that they will be keeping prices in-check.

I got my PS3 original slim today, definitely seems new which is good, will report back later when hopefully the system transfer will be complete. :)

So my PS3 has finally arrived (my first Sony console evah!) It's a pre owned from Game £149.99 PS3 Slim 320HD it came with Uncharted 3. I did order Tales of Xillia and Graces F but they've not been dispatched yet :(

Such a huge library of games, I'm looking forward to the God of War series, always wanted to play it but i never had a chance even on ps2. Well now's the time!

I'll dive straight into uncharted 3 and see what the fuss was all about.:geek:

 

edit: Ni no Kuni, how could i forget i must get it :bouncy:

If you're interested I have a brand new copy of Ni No Kuni, that I've been thinking of selling because I think it's too big of a game for me to commit to. It's not sealed, but it's not even been in the PS3 yet or anything. I was thinking of putting it on ebay with a Buy It Now of £20... but if you'd like it? Free postage.

 

I also have Heavy Rain too if that's another game you'd be interested in?

Take a look at trying Playstation Plus as it's an immense deal if you haven't done so already. Codes for it are usually cheaper online rather than paying directly in the store.

Sure :) but it would have to be next week Friday, if you can't wait it's no problem.

 

No Heavy Rain for the time being, thanks tho.
