Heads up, for everyone considering buying Infamous Second Son digitally for the promo, check this out.

A reputable seller is selling early physical copies of the game on ebay for $58.98.

This is legit. I emailed the seller and he has all copies of the game in hand and they will ship tomorrow.

Also if you use the coupon code: CPNGAMES you will get $5 off your order!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/321347223876

There's like 65 copies left.

Oh wow, really? Even though it says "pre-order" at the top of the description page?

I tried searching for a more relevant location, but I just got a PS4, and the thing gets quite hot on the right side from about 2 inches from the front all the way to the back of the console.

Any other PS4 owners have this happen? It seems to be okay on the menu, and seems to cool down slightly, but it is definitely warmer than my slim PS3 which also could cook up some heat.

It is in an open air cabinet, in the middle section, with an open back/front and left and right sides.

Just want to know if I should just chalk it up to the design or try to send it back to amazon.

From what I read in most threads where people have similar heat problem, the PS4 indeed hotter after booting up, but it'll cool down as time goes on when you played with it.

Huh that is new he must of just added that. I already have tracking info for my order which says its supposed to arrive by monday?

Maybe he got too many orders.

Hm. Guess it won't hurt to try since I don't really want to get the CE anymore.

EDIT: Oh, not early anymore? :<

 

[Flandy]

Random question. Would you guys think I died if I went like 5 days without posting on Gaf? This is assuming I didn't have the tag "Banned"

 

[Wynnebeck]

barrel!

I'm playing Totori and just got my Platinum rank. I'm close to the end right?

It still says the delivery date is March 17th on the page. So close to pulling the trigger.

These next few weeks are going to be awesome. Infamous SS next Friday, Fez on the following Tuesday and now Mercenary Kings a week after that.

Hoping to avoid seeing any gameplay videos of the full game until I get it in my hands, hopefully people on here won't spoil much.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Eh, yeah, fuck it. I pulled the trigger on Infamous from that link. Thanks magicman. Fingers crossed!

 

[Magicman103]

No problem! Figured I'd let my vitabros know. Also if it doesn't work out this guy is a top rated seller and getting your money back should be no problem.

 

[jvm]

If it's still not up in the morning, I'm starting the old "99 bottles" thing again. Sheesh.

 

[SkullHydra]

It's been over 24 hours, and we still don't have the update up yet?! Sheesh.

Nope. Not getting excited about release dates with the current clusterfuck status of SCEA.

What the hell is this weird question all of a sudden?

And to answer, why would anyone think of that unless they know you or you have given indication to that end?

No.

Well, can you not post something for five straight days?

Spoiler

NO

[Magicman103]

Only 13 early copies of Infamous left:

[cardinalmind]

I think I have to go back to Asia PSN for a while. Destiny of Spirits is coming and I remembered capturing some pretty good looking

Spoiler

waifus

characters there. I also have to try that Xblaze game since its on their PS+ right now so I can decide whether to buy it or not.

 

[corrosivefrost]

But if I buy it through the PS store it's only $50 dollars in the end. And it releases in a week....not far away at all. I don't see the point.

But thanks for telling me I should see this on the live from playstation app very shortly.

But you can't sell or trade the game when you're finished with it, should you chose to do so. You may not want to, but that's a pretty decent reason for a lot of people.

(1) Get it early.
(2) Get it for <$55.
(3) Be able to sell/trade when finished.

Not a bad idea if you're interested.

 

[Laughing Banana]

It looks interesting and to play as Kenshin would be great, but after that horrific three punch combo from Xseed and ATLUS I think I am done with importing for the time being

you're safe to import with bandai games

they will never localize

Considering most mainstream American manga/anime consumers don't even know 2/3s of the cast and assists, you'll be fine. I'm importing first chance I get.

 

[ZeroX03]

Oh hey Project DIVA f is up now: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...va-f/cid=EP0177-PCSB00419_00-PJDF393MAJITENSI

Just saw the price for New Zealand. $10 more currency converted than it should be. There is just no way to get this game for a reasonable price, it's killing me.

EDIT: And I bought it anyway. Vita pricing fucking sucks.

 

[cardinalmind]

Yeah but it will launch here on the 20th. I would use this as a practice before going to the US account.

 

[LiquidSolid]

Anyone else having issues adding money to their PSN account? It's not recognising my credit card for some idiotic reason but I figure it's because of how shite the PSN has been over the last few days. I recall this happening when they introduced the current PS3 store.

Bored and wanted to see what ya'll would say since I post in this thread all the time

No.

That's what I thought about Akiba's Trip 2 too, heh...............

Thanks for the Akiba's Trip 2 localization! Have you played it yet?

 

[YianGaruga]

This feels like the good old days of the PS store when you never even knew if you would get a game at all when the store updates. :')

 

[baekshi]

That's what I thought about Akiba's Trip 2 too, heh...............

but those were niche games

bandai publishing means the vita version is never coming

 

[ramyeon]

That's what I thought about Akiba's Trip 2 too, heh..................

Jump games are different though, just the licensing for the characters alone would be a nightmare for any localisation effort. Like the DS Jump games I think it's safe to say this'll never leave Japan.

You're opening deep wounds in me, ramyeon. I've suppressed memories of licensed games with no chance being localized (MACROSS) but you made me remember. :-(

I wouldn't add my credit card until this mess clears up tbh

I haven't even opened it yet. Looking for people who want to buy it from me.

[LittleToaster]

I found two things in PS Home that might interest some here:

This PSN code, posted on the news page as an apology for problems with the Quest for Greatness minigame: 7JPL-FFN7-JC6C
The code will give these PS Home items:
- Animated Microphone & Music Notes
- Animated Retro Game Wall
- Energy Pulsing Sword
- Nine-Tailed Fox

This image of the PS+ library, from the PS+ part of The Hub, showing the new releases for next week: Thomas Was Alone and Unit 13.

That means that Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite will be free for PS+ members on March 25.

One of the things I disliked. It definitely felt padded after the part you are at and it only gets worse.

Do you guys think that they're going to do a blog post whenever the store eventually updates?
