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

Yes, just posted a couple of screenshots above.

TOTP: Buy Trails in the Sky (PSP/Steam).

Hmm. Scott Pilgrim was certainly fun, but mostly for the multiplayer, and I just don't see my friends playing something so anime.

Trails has sat in the backlog for so long. It's just too hard on the mind to play more than one or two RPGs in a year. It's legitimately saddening to finish them. ;-;
 
Please don't buy Blackgate. Such a disappointment. :(
Are you sure? I mean, I really don't think $4 is a lot for even just an oka-
PSA: Stay away from Blackgate, the game has too many issues. Even at $4, it's a pass. The navigation and backtracking are horrible. I know $4 isn't a lot. But, this is a money versus time issue. It's simply not worth it.
I mean... You just addressed my primary argument. I trust you VitaGAF. Besides, it'll be on PS+ soon.
Such a shitty port it's not even funny though, can't comment on blackgate
For serious? I guess I'll just wait for Skullgirls.
Roronoa?

$11.99 Hohokum Pre-Order
$13.59 Rogue Legacy Pre-Order
$10.50 Lego Marvel Super Heroes
$4.20 Batman Arkham Asylum

I just need to buy Injustice while I'm at it because I'm absolutely desperate for a fighting game until Skullgirls on PS4 and Vita, and apparently I'm a massive DC fan now after watching ALL of the DCAU and I legitimately enjoyed playing the game on my buddies WiiU during a trial run today. So, maybe I'll definitely skip Counter Spy and just jump on PS4 Injustice. Still need money for Road Not Taken though. But what I don't need money for is inFamous : First Light, already pre-ordered that baby and it's ticking down.
 
For TitS: Does the story pick up after
you find the Josette and the stolen item
? I feel like it's just random quests thus far with chest enemies to kick my ass.

To be honest it doesn't actually pick up a whole lot until the last chapter of the game, but that wasn't really an issue in my opinion. I loved the pacing and the whole game was just so much fun to experience. It's definitely a slow burn though and it is essentially build up for what's to come (I assume) in the next game.
 
Yeah I kind of thought this was also going to be out for Vita (Rogue Legacy), but I can only seem to find PS3 and PS4 in the store. I don't know why it is a few dollars more, but it releasing the same day as TLoU and not being on Vita means I'll be waiting on a sale too.

it's because of cross-buy

Yeah EU PS Blog has more info about it.

Cross buy, cross save, plat trophy.

Prolly 15€ when it 30.7.14 hits EU store. Couldnt find it from EU web store (tried search "rogue legacy") & wasnt in "coming soon" part.
Dunno, why they dont put smaller games to "coming soon" section. Is it something to do with money or that area is reserved for only "big" games.
Games in "coming soon" EU area has now:

* TLOU:Remastered
* The Swapper (rd 06.08.2014)
* Infamous: First light
* Destiny (PS3 & PS4) & Digital Guardian Edition
* Dragon Age: Inquisition
* Battlefield: Hardline
* Call of Duty: AW
* Dead Island 2

^^ Ok The Swapper is there but no other indies. Gief me my Rogue Legacy now ;)
 
Wait people actually use the PSN store on Vita? I hate going to anything but the web store, it is so much faster and easier to navigate than any of the stores on the actual devices. I've pretty much exclusively used the web store to get my PS+ games, check for sales, and buy whatever I needed, I really can't see why anyone would choose using the Vita store (though as always I'm sure there are good reasons, so feel free to clue me in). Hell, browsing the store on my phone is faster and easier than using my Vita, so it isn't even a "not near a computer" thing for me.

It looks like Sound Shapes is about to get another piece of DLC. I noticed my 100% Trophy List has dropped to 94% today, and the pack is called Hohokum Art and Sound or something..

Tell them to stop! My OCD doesn't allow me to let my completion percent drop below 100% for this game, so I keep buying each DLC so that the non 100 doesn't bother me. I love the game, but I really wish the sound packs added like a normal level each or something so I didn't feel so stupid buying it every time. Maybe one day I'll be creative and actually use the editor.
 
It takes me less time to find and buy something on Vita than it does for the SEN webstore to finish doing this:

...let alone if I have to log back in because I cleared my cache.
 
http://www.play-asia.com/oreshika-tainted-bloodlines-paOS-13-49-en-70-7hzr.html
I guess this means Oreshika will have retail version in US as well. Or Play-asia just listed it (Bioshock Infinite is on there, but without price).
Play-Asia usually don't list a price unless they have confirmation so I think it's safe to assume it's likely to get a US retail release. Great news if so, even if Europe gets shafted there's no DLC/online pass to stop me from importing.
 
Anyone tried Entwined yet?

I hope that Play 2014 promotion in the US comes to the EU store.

Take it form someone who has been observing BOTH the EU and US PSN Stores for 2 years now:
It's not gonna happen.

This has been a US only kind of offer for the greater part of a year, and I've participated in every one of these offers.
I'd like to be proven wrong, but when EU PSN has a sale on Tales of Xillia one week, then the next week US PSN has Xillia on sale for FAR cheaper...
Just don't get your hopes to high when it comes to EU PSN sales or offers.
 
Wondering if you could help.

Going to pre order the last of us on a US account for the first time. (I am in the UK)

If I do this can I still play it/multiplayer on my UK account.

Also will I get the game on the 29th (US) release date rather than the 1st August (UK) release date.

thank you.

Yea that's what I thought :(

I often use the US store for deals and stuff being better priced, but with all the games in the deal being on Vita too, I'd need to use my EU account

$4.20 Batman Arkham Asylum

This is madness!

It seems like the bashing of this game knows no limit. It is not a portable arkham game, but the game is good IMO. I hav never finished any of the ps3 arkham games but this game is one of the few platinum thophys I have.

It takes some time to get used to the map system but whn you do its not a problem and they couldn't have done it any other way. IMO the game has some really good level design. If you are looking for a fast game with a lot of fighting, this you might find this game "dull", but if you like to take your time and explore and and search for hidden paths you will have a great time with this game.

I really liked it and I guess there are more people like me here, so for a price that is as low as 4 dollars some of you might have the money to take a chance and try it.

Far as I know you should still be able to play it online on a different account on a PS4.
As I understand it, your PS4 will recognize your Plus sub in the US account thus letting you play online on any other account.
EDIT: Though if someone can offer more on this, that'd be appreciated.

Any game you get off US PSN, will release when Grace Chen updates the US PSN store, so UK time/release date has nothing to do with it.

Thank you :)

Having missed out on a PS3 I am so excited for the last of us!

You're welcome, though I should've added how I'm basing this off how Plus games acted on the PS3.
You can have more than one account on the PS3, so say you have a US account with Plus and another UK account that does not.
Any Plus game you got off US PSN will run fine if you play on the UK account, but once the Plus sub ends for your US account, you won't be able to play that game.

As such and, far as the PS4 is concerned, you can play online as long as you got a Plus sub. If it expires you won't be able to play online.
 
Ugh, wish they would just let me download it in full as I was planning to leave it on standby tonight and be good to go during the morning.
It will still download in the background. Although it doesn't show in the downloads list check the size of the game on the hdd in settings and it will show you the full size and how much it's downloaded.

Table Top Racing coming 6th august

- Ex- Liverpool devs
- MicroMachines-like
- 6€ launch price + PS+ discount


Not sure if D1, but I want it
Funny, I was just talking to my friend last night about how minus MotorStorm RC there's been a lack of Micro Machines type of games for awhile and then this pops up. Ex-Liverpool, good launchprice and a PS+ discount means i'll probably be there day one.
 
Atelier Rorona Plus was released yesterday? But, I've had it on my Vita for weeks. Eh? What's going on? I bought it on 7/1 and downloaded to my Vita weeks ago? Eh?

The version without the bonus dlc was released yesterday. Koei Tecmo does that with their games, instead of removing the 3 week dlc from the original listing, they just release a new version without the dlc. I guess it's for convenience.

so upon reading the impressions..there's nothing worth it for the vita on the superhero sale? i was about to buy the lego game but then read that it sucks on the vita. i'll just save my $7 for the another game then..i'll continue playing rorona then.

Ah, okay. Good thing I got the DLC then.
