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

Why bother? It's not coming. Don't do this to yourself.

I've tried to keep only 2 characters in my party in Dragon's Crown (a pure melee class + my character, which is an elf).

It's so much better now. The screen is cleaner without that many spells and I can see what I'm doing now.

Did you also go out of your way to adjust the UI so that it's not cluttered with elements for partners, locations, health bars, etc etc? It does a good job of giving you those options to tweak if you have to.
 
Question for you all:

I've downloaded Strider to PS4 since it's free now, and no matter what I do, the game thinks I have the trial version. I go to click "unlock full game", it takes me to the store and the store says I own the game,

How do I fix this?

@Child of Light being/hoped for 60fps
I didn't play the vita version, but I know that the last gen versions (including WiiU) are 30fps - so I highly doubt the game runs with 60fps on the Vita.

@Ratchet & Clank Trilogy
Got my retail copy today, played the first game ~20minutes - seems like an fine & legit port. :) FMVs (not in-game cutscenes) are in 4:3 format though, but at least they aren't compressed like hell (Sly anyone?).
 
Interesting about the arcade games on JP store. I'd be inclined to start buying more classics both physical and digital on the PS4 now, since it's highly likely everything will be playable on future hardware with the move to x86.

I'd say PS Nova has a better chance than PSO2 actually, since you don't need as much online infrastructure.
 
Guacamelee PS4 update is up but I can't add it to my basket. Same for you?

Edit: It's ok now, i think it's just the system takes some time to verify if this update should be available or not for your account
 
What part is pathetic about these sales so far? A ton of relatively new games are 50%+ off and there's more incoming next week I think. Sure it could be better, I mean, it's no 14 for '14 Sale but we get good sales nearly every week.
That is a good price for Rocksmith if you already have a cable. It isn't so bad.
 
Hopefully they'll add the Ratchet Trilogy anyway like they did with Borderlands 2.
Yeah, here's hoping. I can wait a week but i'd rather not have it a week later due to retail parity.
I miss the days when the EU store would update at about 2-3pm...
Those were good times.
Grace Chen moved to Europe?
This would explain much.

They were like that in the PS3 versions aswell. Personally I think it's a good way to avoid the FMVs not looking awful compared to the main game. Great to hear they're as good as the footage implied, thanks for the impressions.

I was wondering what those Japanese PS4 trophy lists popping up on sites were.
 
My foolish wish is to someday see all these PS2 classics available individually for Vita purchase. FFX HD standalone, God of War 2 standalone, etc. Smaller memory footprint, less of a financial bite.
 
I don't know why its been so hard to get the games this month. Normally go on in afternoon - done.

Not showing up on PS4 all day, neither the site. Then I managed to add pixel on my phone to my PS4 downloads and see new titles. Then all PS+ games disappear. Go on PS4 pixel is downloading, add doki to downloads. Strider not showing as free..
 
This is a Tale From My Ass piece of speculation, but I'd hold off on buying any of the PS4 Arcade Archvies from Japan. The main company behind that program is Hamster, who has been very open to releasing their games internationally, especially their vault of PSone Imports. I did a rundown of the titles they announced for the Arcade Archives a few months ago and pretty much all of them had English releases (not that English would be required for early arcade games, but still). I suspect Monkey Paw will eventually start it up over here.
 
Has anyone upgraded the free PS+ version of the game? If I upgrade that way will the PS4 version still be tied to the PS+ membership?

If you buy the PS4 upgrade, you'll keep the PS4 version even if your PS+ membership runs out (but you'll lose PS3 and Vita versions obviously).
 
The PS+ games are finally up.

Edit: Lego Batman 2's not free so i'd assume they just put the others up while they sort out whatever's causing the issue with it.
