Posted November 19, 2009 Anyone know if you can sign up for a PSN account online (not through the PS3) and get the free Transformers download? My Dad just bought a PS3 but it's for Christmas :P Yeah you can, although I am not sure if it properly activates until you sign in with the PS3. http://uk.playstation.com/psn/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 Is the price of the HD version the same as the SD? Because on XBL it isn't. Or at least it wasn't last time I checked. I cant speak for there, but in the US store , HD rentals are $2 more and buying is usually $5 more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) I think the new update makes the friend list even shitter. The colour option is good but only having the profile box appear for the ID you're highlighting just looks wrong somehow. Probably because it makes the rest of the friends list seem washed out and distant. And I can't update my profile as an error occurs, so I am unable to change the colour of it. I actually think the whole updating process is very unprofessional. The updates are infrequent, don't add much, yet the thing needs a serious revamp and allow you to customise the XMB further. Like having a whole TV section with just a weblink for iPlayer. Just looks and is unfinished. Seperate the friend boxes slightly and make them smaller? Plus your ID should be distinguished from your friends list. Just minor things that add up to be irritating. Edited November 19, 2009 by dwarf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 No option to make XMB icons smaller or to switch off the background blur makes me a sad panda. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 19, 2009 By comparing trophies I managed to get the thing to 100% sync. Even though before after failing it still had my trophies updated when it stopped, it was still annoying and wouldn't let me get onto my profile. Have done now and the colour change is a monumental addition. Amazing Sony! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) Edit2: The first link was the wrong link, look a few posts down for the real one. Edit: The NA beta isn't up until tonight, so I just ended up making a UK PSN account and getting a new code from this site. So I'll just go back to my main account once its downloaded as this apparently works. Edited November 19, 2009 by Emasher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 I think that's a scam Emasher. Damn, I wanted a code too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 (edited) No, The code worked, I'm downloading it now! NVM, I posted the wrong link. I'll have the real link up in a moment. The link I posted before actually was a scam. http://www.esl.eu/de/bfbc2/beta Edited November 19, 2009 by Emasher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 15 minutes and counting on the update. The progress? 2%. Fuck that noise. I could have updated a room full of Xbox's in that time. So much for playing Borderlands tonight, looks like Forza 3 then. Edit: 3% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2009 Took me 15 minutes to download the update. Way too long. F*cking trophies won't sync. I quite like syncing them...when it f*cking works. Also, the rentals a £1 too much. If they were cheaper then I'd probably rent quite a lot. As it is, no thanks. Maybe once in a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 20, 2009 So the PS3 controller doesn't charge when connected to the console while it's off... So I connected it to my PC and it's flashing. Is it charging? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I often charge mine from my laptop, which sits next to me. So I can still play and charge at the same time without sitting close to the TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 20, 2009 Picked up Dirt 2 for £15 off a mate today. He started off asking for £25 but I carefully wormed it down to that awesome level. Don't really feel like playing it at the moment though, will go for a spin anyway. The replays sold it to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm jealous - I rented this and love it, I'm waiting for the price to drop before buying it. Loved the controls in the game - the cars have a nice weighty feel to them when you powerslide around corners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
