So the EU team updated the store today, without putting Demon Gaze on it -_-
Blog post says it will come with the next update...

For what its worth though, I nearly freaked out to see Eufloria Adventures on the recent tab (where TWD s02e01 and the season pass still haven't been put on, smh). I just fucking bought the PSM version and they port it? No, it turns out it is the PSM version appearing there, this has to be the first time, isn't it?

The PSM store always kind of had a visibility problem so putting Eufloria Adventures, which always seemed to me like a planned tentpole release for the platform (until it got delayed and delayed), is a good idea I guess.

edit: Go buy and play The Walking Dead season 1+2 and Football Manager Classic 2014.

nah, wouldn't think so. I don't think there's any differences between countries in EU, though I'm not dead certain.

And Spain is not a particularly prude country.

We get nearly the same as UK or France, just in Euros instead of Pounds and Spanish instead of English/French.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Was just curious. Wondering if a few countries were like Germany who censors certain games.

Also, is there a website where I can buy digital euro PSN codes?
checked scam asia and all they have are UK cards.

Not sure if these are placeholders also but Danganronpa 2 and Blazblue Chronophatasma for Vita got some Cover updates for what they might look like when they finally come over to the west.

Definitly not the greatest covers ever made but then again BB covers were always mess.

There are diffrences in availability of some games. Also to cut down on size I belive some games have part of language packs removed. Best to use UK store.

am i the only clown thinking of applying a screen protector to hit Vita? :X

I did at first but then it bubbled up and I got pissed off at spending $5 on it. I also bought a case for protective case for my Vita that I found out that I never ever use anymore. Man I was splooging hard on useless stuff when I bought a Vita.

Spain do not have problems with any games, at least we don't ban or censor games, even less rules than UK -This does not mean devs not selfcensor on whole EUR like allknown multiplayer the last of us, those frames from twisted metal, etc- (ELSPA or ADESE ratings are not law like BBFC or USK are on UK/Germany), we even got Rule of Rose which was banned in many sites. UK have better mini publishers for some minor games maybe is better to you use an UK account.

Yup showing 19.99 for me as well. Damn that was a quick ass sale.

It must be some kind of glitch, it's not the first time they're doing this. When OlliOlli released, it was on discount for a week. But for one day, it was shown on PSN without the sale, full price, the day when I intended to buy it. They restored the discount the next day. They have also done this error with couple of other titles too, other than OlliOlli, Runner2 comes to my mind right now.

When it let you download PSP themes, most people figured it was a glitch and got in on it while the going was good. It sucks that they undid it but maybe the positive reception from that error will end up helping out in the long run.

Holy Mother of God. I called it.

What's worse is it shows how it's just something simple to enable the games, it's not rocket science... and yet, they don't care and just sit back and ignore us.

I spent the last week playing only on 3ds. I didn't use it for a month so it needed a bit a love too <3

Now I should really focus on study so still no Vita / Vitagaf for me :/
 
ZeroAKA said:
I'm pretty sure it had already happened by the time you called it.
Click to expand...

Hmmm, I dunno. The reply I got in the Vita thread about my theory suggesting that would happen seemed to be sarcasm and I believe you asked if I was surprised. I didn't actually look into at all. If you haven't noticed, I don't post much around here anymore... so if I didn't "call it" before it happen, I at least said it would happen without knowledge that it already had.

I can't even put into words how outraged I am at this point. I guess it's kind of a good thing my Vita has fallen into "play the daily challenges for Rayman so in a year I can get the platinum and delete it." :lol

Finals start next week, but that's not going to stop me from posting here. :D

Sony Is Removing PSN Leaderboard Support For PlayStation Mobile

Sony announced today that the PlayStation Mobile scoreboard service would be shutting down on June 30, 2014. This service allows PlayStation Mobile developers the option to include leaderboards in their titles which link to a PlayStation Network account. The reason given by Sony for this was that the service will be shut down due to limited usage.

Some of the devs that did implement learboards are a bit peeved.

While the communication on this matter is woefully awful, your assumption that it's as simple as you claim is either purposefully obtuse or plain ignorance.

Was actually thinking about getting a UK account at first, but then I would need a address. Spain was the most logical choice for me since I could just use my family's address there.

Totally forgot about using paypal on PSN. Prior to me reading that, I was heavily considering just wiring my family some money over there so they can buy me some PSN cards :S

Thank you for all the information.
 
is the genesis collection worth it? how does the game run on the vita?

Sorry to step in like this, but I have an issue with PSN.

After 4 years of having a dead system, I decided to buy a new ps3 this week. I got it yesterday with The Last of Us, and it wasn't until today that I decided to download RE4 HD on it. The thing is, I'm not going to get my new internet connection set up till later in the month, so I'm using my phone's hot spot. I only have 2.5gb on it, so I was going to use my brother's phone to complete the download.

My issue is this; the ps3 does not show the background download option. It's essentially downloading it on the store and the file size does not show under the icon. It shows how much it has downloaded, but the progress bar stays at 0% even after restarting the download, and the system, multiple times.

I tried downloading other games such as Infamous and Bioshock Infinite, the latter being a PS+ game, and they're the same. However, Parasite Eve 2 (PS1) shows the download size and the background download option. Is this an update issue, a PSN store issue (the thing is slow as hell), or is there a hidden option I can't find? Thanks in advance.
 
Does anyone know if it is possible to turn off the prompt for automatic save uploads before starting every game? For some reason everything was reset and it is asking me every time again.

The "Download in Background" does not show until a minimum amount/percentage has been downloaded. The thing is that most normal broadband connections get the minimum done very quickly so you wouldn't notice it normally.

Thanks for the reply. I do remember there being a minimum percentage, but I cancelled it when it was a little over 500mb and the percentage was still 0%. For parasite Eve, it gave me the option instantly on the same connection.
