Daft Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Actually you can't. Only 5 times which is a bit naughty so be careful. Oh really...lame. They should allow you to download it a couple times initially but then renew it every year... or something like that. What is it like on XBL?
Domstercool Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Five different PS3s from what I hear The ability to use PlayStation Store content licenses for re-download is limited to five different PlayStation 3 But some games you can't do the game share stuff, like Warhawk, that's directly linked to your PSN tag.
flameboy Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Yeah I reckon we will see PS2 titles on PSN and can be directly linked to the emulation job advert. I have always said the PS2 finally dying would be a great thing for the industry. Finally the Wii will get that little bit less crap as people port less games from PS2. But for Sony it will mean they can sell PS2 games on PSN without pissing off retail, if they were to do it now retailers would miss out as people would stop buying preowned PS2 games if they can get them much cheaper for download. In a way it would have been a lot better if Sony had just cut off the PS2 like Microsoft did with the original xbox but then they would have lost millions and millions. EDIT; one other thing, whatever happened to the new compact PS2? remember? http://www.mcvuk.com/news/28753/New-low-price-compact-PS2-to-arrive-in-2008 http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/news.phtml/11140/12164/new-ps2-SCPH-90000-launched-japan.phtml out in japan did it come out here?
Hero-of-Time Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Heres an awesome trailer for FF: Dissidia. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35593.html Its great to see Squall back in action.
chrizkerr2 Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Naruto for the Playstation 3 gameplay. Looks pretty damn awesome! Looks like there is also gunna be a demo released in July! Hell yeah!
Daft Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 I pretty damn addicted to SingStar...kind of with I hadn't bought Rock Band now. I love having the music videos in the background, and the SingStar store is awesome.

I have the original and was considering picking up 2 and I was wondering if you can use your store downloads with both discs? Also, how are things Nick?
Daft Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Is that vol.2? I have the original and was considering picking up 2 and I was wondering if you can use your store downloads with both discs? Also, how are things Nick? Yeah from what I've read you can use all your downloads its just the tracks on the disk that are different. There is also an option to swap disks without leaving the game which is good. The track selection on Vol. 2 is surprisingly good. I've got Street Spirit to keep me happy...ironically. :p Things are cool. Completed MGS4 4 times. Will start again after I get a bit more Brawl done. I'm back at Square on Monday for some random project. Knowing my luck it'll be Final Fantasy: Barbie Sudoku for the Gameboy Color! Hows the summer going? And the anthropology? I hope the tactical line revision worked out!
That Guy Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Thats the point. They want you to buy PS3 games, not PS2. The quality of the games should make people purchase the games. My mate at work actually refused to buy a PS3 because he can't play his PS2 games on it. I don't really care to be honest as I just wanted a Blu Ray player and to play the odd game that I would miss out on.

My mate at work actually refused to buy a PS3 because he can't play his PS2 games on it. I don't really care to be honest as I just wanted a Blu Ray player and to play the odd game that I would miss out on. For me it was the price drop and the death of HD DVD that convinced me to get one, I intially wasn't bothered about PS2 games as there was enough stuff for me to go back to I felt on PS3...games like Uncharted, Burnout and there are still so many great games coming out this year. EDIT In other news; new firmware video looks like it is nearly here; http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-162994.aspx
dwarf Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Can someone clear this up for me: There's a huge list of BC games that are playable on the PS3, on my 40Gb I've played MGS1 for PS1, created a memory card etc, and I also created a PS2 one but couldn't get Burnout 3 for ps2 to work, even though it's on the list. Does the 60Gb have more BC games?
S.C.G Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Does the 60Gb have more BC games? Probably, the 60Gb plays all PS2 games I think but the BC is better on a NTSC model than a Pal one, I own the NTSC 60Gb model and have never had any problem playing any PS2 game, but I can't say for certain about the Pal model.
Domstercool Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 I play all my PS2 games on my PS3 now. They look much better through the PS3 on a HDTV. Connecting a PS2 to a HDTV makes the games more jaggy for some reason. So I can say thanks to Sony for that, it really does help. My now white modded PS2 doesn't really get that much use anymore.
tapedeck Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I may get a PSP... Anyone got an tips as to where I'll get good prices/deals? I've heard a lot about getting the correct firmware and version too (slim or original phat.) I know nothing of the PSP, only that I can send PS1 games to it via my PS3 and buy Parappa for it What's the batt. life like/gaming experience etc?.. So yeah, ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Guest Jordan Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I'd suggest you get the Slim, mostly because its a hell of a lot lighter and the D-Pad doesn't suck. Battery life is around 3 hours with the standard battery, 6-10 with the extended battery (US only..). You can send PS1 games to your PSP via your PS3, yes. There are some amazing games... but its lacking in some areas tbh. Alot of the games feel like PS2 games without a propper camera system.
Jimjebus Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I am considering the psp , and if i was to get one i would get the light for the main reason of it being light . Only game i can find an excuse to buy one is MGS Portable Ops
Ryan Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I am considering the psp , and if i was to get one i would get the light for the main reason of it being light . Only game i can find an excuse to buy one is MGS Portable Ops Worth every penny.
Domstercool Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Then you need to look into the catalogue deeper as there are some quality titles on there.

Jav_NE Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 PS3 > 360 pad. I dont like the triggers on the 360, whereas the PS3 shoulder triggers feel loads better. The D-pad is of course a million times better also, and the two analogues are symetrically positioned which is tonnes better. The plastic feel of the 360 buttons isn't as nice as the PS3 buttons either.

Are you taking the piss Mr. Sangra? Dreamcast triggers for the fucking win. You can't beat them in racers, you simply cannot.
