PlayStation Network Thread (Vita/PS3/PS4) | June 2014

I might be an anomaly but I have yet to have Borderlands 2 crash. Day 1 Vita and BL2 Game Card (not a digital version). Sanctuary slows down pretty hard, but I have never had the game actually crash on me. Maybe I am just not far enough into the game to experience the crashes yet.

Now, I have had Vita games crash: Memories of Celceta a couple of times after boss battles when cutscenes were supposed to load that did not, Danganronpa once (though I do not remember the circumstances).
 
I love Child of Light and would love a physical Vita copy but 40 AUD is pretty damn expensive for a game that's already crossbuy on PS3/PS4 and releases a couple of months after the other versions.

Guess I'll pick it up in a sale sometime.

I've had it crash twice on me so far but I've played it for hours and had that happen a couple of times with the original Borderlands on PS3 so I'm not too bothered when it happens.
 
What the heck is Murdered: Soul Suspect? The video on SEN makes it seem like a horror movie that decided to be a video game. I love detective games, so I was interested until seeing it's overly supernatural.
 
Can anyone confirm that neither of the free VITA games are up in the NA store as "free" and the same with Sly for PS3? I see all of this months games, but those three still have prices.

Only Pixeljunk Shooter so far. Starting July all + games will be released at the beginning of the month.

I thought this was the month they stopped the staggered roll out, my bad.

I do see Pixeljunk PS4, Trine 2 PS4, & NBA PS3 free right now. Silly they don't push out at least 1 VITA game for starters.

You can get Pixeljunk for free on the Vita too.
 
I sent a tweet to @PlayStationEU and got a response from David Arquette that the games will go up 6pm. I hope that doesn't mean 7pm Dutch time :(.

Fuck, that would be 3am for Sydney... Oh well, looks like I'm going to have to download before work... Off to bed then
 
Quantum conundrum's on sale for £3.99. That's the Portal-esque game with the amazing XMB music, right?
Quantum Conundrum was great. For that price it's a deal, but, I will say the ending was sort of a letdown. The game itself was awesome though. Great spatial awareness & physics based puzzler. Framerate is iffy at times, but the laughs I was getting far out weighed any technical discrepancies I saw.
 
Farming Simulator 14 out today on Vita. Is it just another mobile port? It's £28.49 while the last Farming Simulator is £6.50 so I hope not.

I wanted to play Trine 2 when I got home. I sure hope we don't have to wait till 7. I wish Sony would stick to standard update times.
 
Killzone Shadow Fall Intercept places you and up to three of your friends on the elite VSA team known as Intelligence Squad Alpha. Operating behind enemy lines, your team must relay important Helghast military transmissions back to VSA headquarters — but you’ll need to keep Helghast forces at bay long enough to establish an Uplink first…

With a new teamwork-oriented game mode, four distinct Combat Roles, four new arena maps, and a unique set of bonuses that include the jetpack, Intercept adds a whole new dimension to the Killzone Shadow Fall experience. It will be released as a DLC expansion pack this summer, and as a fully compatible standalone version (that does not require the original Killzone Shadow Fall) later this year.

The expansion pack version will be available free of charge for Killzone Shadow Fall season pass holders, so be sure to pick one up if you haven’t done so already.

There's a bunch of character art in the article too.
 


Awhile back someone asked me to do a cover for the MGS HD Collection and I thought that was a pretty good idea considering the official covers are pretty uninspired.

I thought I'd be clever and only use Ashley Wood's MGS art, but I soon found it incredibly difficult to find appropriate images of Raiden (Still getting the short end of the stick).

After everything I found one that I could use, but I'm not so sure it works.

Thoughts?

nice! i would use the official game logos and fonts though

I tried out a few versions and the official logos are a bit too similar to one another and feel redundant when put together, but you're probably right. Something about the current typeface doesn't sit well with me, especially the spine.

so on vita this month for PS+ in Europe:
- PixelJunk Shooter ultimate (because it is cross buy from PS4)
- lone survivor (because it is cross buy from PS3)
- Dragon's Crown
- Surge Deluxe


not bad :)
 
I love Child of Light and would love a physical Vita copy but 40 AUD is pretty damn expensive for a game that's already crossbuy on PS3/PS4 and releases a couple of months after the other versions.

I bought the deluxe edition and I'm inclined to agree. I'll probably pick it up again during a sale.
 
Same goes for Trine 2 in the Dutch / EU store.
Yup, all up. :)

Deal of the week
Football Manager Classic 2014 (PS Vita) – Was £29.99/€39.99/$54.95, now £14.99/€19.99/$24.95

Thief (PS3) – Was £39.99/€59.99/$69.95, now £19.99/€24.99/$29.95

Thief (PS4) – Was £49.99/€69.99/$99.95, now £29.99/€34.99/$47.95
Trying to resist Thief. By the time I get around to playing it, it'll be less than a tenner.
 
Borderlands 2 on Vita is an absolute blast. I can see why this game was played by so many.

Definitely on board for future Borderlands games.

No crashes so far. I'm about to do the
Roland rescue mission
and impressions from other Gaffers tell me to prepare for crashes in this section.
 
Haven't checked the rest, but Dragon's Crown is showing free (UK):

https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...game/cid=EP1063-PCSB00408_00-DRAGONSCROWN0001

EDIT: Yup, all seems to be up.

EDIT2: And Octodad is listed at the sale price.

Yeah.

Well, here are links to all games (UK Store)

I guess this is a thing:



Available July 4th for *gulp* 579,99 euro.

http://www.amazon.fr/dp/B00JRT4NXU/

Pretty sure it doesn't come with a Vita memory card, or Infamous: Second Son. I guess the lack of an MC is kind of okay if you're going to just use Remote Play, since Vita 2K has 1GB (lol) of onboard storage.

Maybe the bundle is real but the image looks like a fake placeholder imo.
 
That PS4 and Vita bundle says ultimate player edition. What's the standard edition? PS4 standablone, or a Vita standalone? :^)

At least the V in Vita looks like a V and not a U this time.

This made me think of the Wii U... Those two systems remind me of each other.
