Weird. Do you have a PS4? Could have been that. I'm not sure what the messaging thing is called on the PS4.

KH3 $10 Newegg gift card with preorder
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...-cables-_-na-_-na&Item=N82E16879262059&cm_sp=

Is the release date shown a confirmed release date?

 

[AstuteClass]

Found you. Your trophy level is 18. Right?

Yup. Around 40 Plats (I think 42). I'm glad it's not deleted then. Now just to call Sony in the morning and see what the hell is wrong.

If I don't get this unbanned, I am done with gaming. All of it will be on eBay following the phonecall.

 

[ZeroAKA]

It's a placeholder date. I doubt KH3 will be out this year.

Says you became friends with someone an hour ago.

Damn guys I cannot contain my excitement for inFamous. It is going to be a long 10 days.

From other thread

edit: Toro X soul sacrifice
http://commu.jp.playstation.com/blog/details/20140311_toro_soul.html

This is great, though it makes me wonder if Sony has any plans for Toro on the PS4. I imported Toro! Let's Party! for the PS3 some months ago and it was surprisingly good for what was essentially a mini-game collection. Would love to see more of its ilk.

 

[AstuteClass]

Wow, bizarre. Yeah, I'd just best call Sony in the morning. This is weird.

 

[Ponn]

So there is no way for me to get money or preorder Deception Vita towards the $60 deal then?

Going to friend request you and see if I get accepted lol

Not sure SCEA does preorders for 3rd party Vita (or first party for that matter) titles.

 

[Tizoc]

Soooo if I spend $120 during the promotion do I get $20 back or it is only a one time thing and I would only get $10?

nO, Pretty sure you don't.
BUT if you use 2 separate accounts and use $60 on each, you can get 2 codes.

 

[AstuteClass]

Thanks, mate.

Getting ready for work now. Will check back later.

You' might see his purchases too.

 

[Foxix Von]

Did they fix the squeakiness? I have no issues with my triggers, but the four main buttons can be pretty noisy.

Huh weird, my original vita never had problems with squeaky buttons, only the triggers. I need to spend more time with it but so far I haven't really heard any button squeak, but they're still audibly noisy in the form of them clicking.

 

[AstuteClass]

Oh don't scare me more. Though I can't see how the account has activity if it's banned.

 

[Flandy]

Thanks, mate.

Hope it works out for you

You' might see his purchases too.

That's assuming the request is accepted. I'm confused though. He said his account was suspended but he still became friends with someone. This is weird.

Oh don't scare me more. Though I can't see how the account has activity if it's banned.

Well if you bought RE off the webstore it won't show on the friend bubble page thing. If you buy it off the Vita store it gives you the option to broadcast your purchase. On the webstore it doesn't give you that option so I shouldn't be able to see if you bought RE

 

[maouvin]

Might be that he added someone before the ban and just got accepted now.

 

[PBY]

Is towerfall or the 10/60 deal up yet?

 

[jordn613]

Where the hell is today's update/Towerfall?

 

[Flandy]

Didn't even think of that. You're probaly right

 

[Big Baybee]

I have no idea what to do. On my ps4 I have 2 items in my cart, but every time i click on the cart icon it sends me right back to ps4 home screen. And I can't buy the shit I want now because it says "in cart" on the page of what I want. Anyone else have this problem before?

 

[RalchAC]

Just "Screw you, we'll take your 42 Platinums, £38 in your wallet, 5 months remaining PS+ sub. and all the games you've ever purchased."

I'm about to call tomorrow (10:30pm here in UK and I have work to go to), but what the hell are my chances here? Will they be able to see where this "pornographic" content came from? Where it was sent? Will they take the 7 year clean account status into consideration and how I hadn't done any such thing before?

Seriously fretting here GAF. Help me!

Wow. I don't really know what to do, but I hope everything ends well. Call custommer service, that will probably be your only choice I guess.

This is why I use the webstore 99.99% of the time. The webstore isn't prefect by any stretch, but it is miles better than the in-console store.

I dont understand why people get upset over PSN Tuesdays... since the beginning i just assume that ill have the game by 11:59PM Tuesday Night... so i dont get my hopes up when its not updated by noon...

and if it IS updated by noon... DOPE!

But I never EXPECT IT to be up before midnight... dont know why ANYONE expects it before then and gets upset if it isnt... Is anyone THAT new to PSN Tuesdays?

ikr? Why did people expect Skyrim the game that paid for to work on PS3 too? Ridiculous that consumers expect these products to function as intended!

Check back on Wednesday.

Because at this point Sony should have their shit together when it comes to PSN. They are the only ones who can't seem to get store updates up at a reasonable time frame on a consistent bases, they had started to get little better but then we have today and that goes out the window

Sony does a lot of things right, but store updates should be posted no later the 12am (8 at the very latest). Why bother going digital on games when I can just go buy a physical copy earlier? It's an area in which they are at a disadvantage when you compare them with other services.

 

[aro52]

Jinxed it! Matt clearly wasn't aware of GCT.

 

[dallow_bg]

Well I screwed up a lot of stuff in the ordering process. I forgot to specify what state I live in along with accidentally sending two paypal payments for a single 64gb card. Basically after completing the order and attempting to pay, the site sort of glitched on me and I received no payment confirmation and instead followed an email link to complete the payment. I couldn't find their contact info so I kinda panicked and opened a claim with PayPal only to later find their email address and attempt to contact them.

I'm just a little curious because I haven't received a response yet and despite throwing a bunch of cash at them through PayPal I still haven't actually had any funds withdrawn from my account.

I remember reading someone had accidently paid them twice before via Paypal, but they actually initiated the refund themselves even with no contact.
Hope it's resolved.

Just got my skinny pink vita in. Initial impressions are strange. I've only dinked around the menus for a couple minutes but it's enough for some initial impressions I think. First the elephant in the room, the screen.

Its a double edged sword. I wasn't expecting the black level to be as bright as it is, on the other hand all the other problems are completely resolved. Despite lacking the insane contrast ratio, the lcd panel is shockingly crisp and surprisingly warm in its color reproduction. With all signs of mura, weird vertical lines, and sub pixel grain far removed it is overall much more accurate and clean in its presentation. What it lacks in contrast it makes up for in clarity. The initial impressions of veiwing it at a glance are unfavorable but I think once I get used to it I could easily see myself not missing the 1000 at all. Most of the initial shock at the contrast on my part was due to the default brightness being cranked way too high. On the plus side the screen can be dimmed much further than the OG vita which will make it more appropriate for late night gaming sessions.

I honestly hesitate to call it a downgrade necessarily. There's definitely some drawbacks but it's really more of a side grade if anything. Also it's a big relief to not have to worry about oled burn in on this thing.

Other notes:

While it doesn't seem like it in pictures the trimmed thickness and slightly wider body make this much, much more comfortable to hold.

The buttons all feel so much better. The 1000 model always felt a little to tight in its button presses for my taste. They still depress quickly and with a notable click but they're easier to depress. This same notion applies to both the PS button and the start and select buttons which sport a much improved shape and are infinitely easier to select. Triggers have also been improved dramatically. They feel much snappier and I don't even have to loosen a screw on the back!

I can't tell exactly how but I think the wider body and improved ergonomics help better place the speakers between the thumb and forefinger rather than directly beneath the thumb.

I can't speak to the functionality of the smaller rear touch pad but the extra finger room is a welcome addition.

The stupid fucking PS button no longer glows, PRAISE BE TO CTHULHU!

Overall it feels a lot like the time I first picked up a DSi. Its just overall very, very nice.

EXCELLENT impressions, and they basically mirror mine about the screen.
It's warmer, and actually probably better than the OLED aside from the blacks (and thus contrast ratio). It's nothing to be worried about.

Holy shit apparently my Vita 2000 is out for delivery today. That is some damn quick postage, I only ordered it a couple of days ago and it was coming from Hong Kong with free postage. I'm impressed.

Sweet, and free postage?

 

[kakashi08]

Friend finally decided to buy the ps4 because of MSGV. Where's the best place to buy the ps4 right now. Amazon?

I just wanna order the lime green one and looking for the best option for me!

Good luck finding it in stock on earth

I know the description says Lime Green, but it's actually a really bright yellow right?
Or are my eyes just bad?

This on top of the web store not functioning for some users for over a month now and my faith in Sony's customer service abilities is dwindeling fast. Mostly the web store issues more than update times but they both show a level of incompetence I don't expect from a company the size of Sony.

 

[MrBambinoDent]

Well hopefully a fellow gaffer would help us to some good pics of theirs!

Also is having 3 Vitas too much? I just don't wanna get rid of my release black or AC Liberation white OLED ones -_-

 

[Shinriji]

I am having way more fun with Army Corps of Hell that I expected. Kickass soundtrack as well. A good B-Side Square game, just like the golden age of the PS1.

And this week, several JP Vita games were announced. My excel file shows that the vita reached 500 games (released + announced). So much for "haz no gaems".

On other news, the OT of J-Stars Victory VS will be live tomorrow.

Looks like bright lime green to me.

Like a color of a highlighter.

This is retarded... wtf are you talking about... i never said ANYTHING about games functioning correctly or not... ALL im saying is NOT to expect PSN Tuesday Updates right away... RIDICULOUS RIGHT?! Boo effing hoo you cant get that free game from PS+ at 11am and have to wait a few hours in order to play it. RIDICULOUS!

Good luck getting in touch with somebody on the phone Astute. I've been pulling my hair out this week trying to get an update on my case. Worst customer support for a big company in recent memory.

I love Sony and all but I pray I never need their customer support! Not a single person I know was happy dealing with them, I wish companies learn a bit from Amazon!

Japan

I thought we consider Japan a separate planet with all the cool stuff that only exist on their land
Seriously thought is it really that available there?

 

[AstuteClass]

Thanks for the well wishing, guys. I've never enjoyed calling people because I've always been timid but now I'm the opposite and am gonna need to remain calm because I'm furious right now.

Is there anything you guys can tell me that would help me get somewhere with them? Better to be polite or direct and like I mean business.

Heh, just today I sent an email merely asking what was the deal with my PDP Grips taking too long to ship. They replied five minutes later straight up refunding my shipping and preemptively offering a full refund if if takes another week.

I've had three cases where I've had to contact Sony, tried both via telephone and online chat. You can be polite or direct but either way brace yourself for them to be absolutely no help. You'll be lucky if you get somebody not reading off a check list of common questions / responses.
