My PS+ uk account expired now I have to buy a UK psn card but none of the uk retailers take us cc.

How the fuck does this work?

I have some codes from the Netherlands PS+ promotion and made a new account but it's asking for a credit card.

>_>
 
I don't want Okami HD to be a PS+ offering for NA, because i already have it, selfish i know.
Well...since I use both EU and US Plus, I too don't want it to be the freebie for April AT LEAST.

Can we expect to learn about the NA PS+ update for april this monday?

EDIT: yeah april 1st seems like the date to post it.
Gah that's too far away IMO, better announce it this week instead =/

For those about to experience Okami in HD... prepare to get your socks knocked off.

I expect to be bombarded by colors~
...and some annoying Screen tearing I believe?

Did you try your card? For some reason some US cards pass verification when you enter the info during a PS+ trial redemption.

Nope.

I'll try it tomorrow if it's a guide on how to cancel your membership in dutch. I'd rather just keep my UK account since I'd have to download all those games again.
 
So I finally got around to installing darksiders that I got a while back. Oh man, what a disappointment. I played for 15-20 minutes before I quit the game and deleted it. Nothing about it was fun, and the visuals were PS2/XBox level. It was especially jarring because there is this cinematic with really good CGI which sets up in a level, then all of a sudden it switches to in-game assets and it completely takes you out of the experience.

completely agree, from how it handles as well I really do feel like I'm playing a last gen xbox game.
 
man installing the 16gig ratchet all in one is taking more than 2hrs :/

It could be that I'm downloading in the background too.

Two hours? At home right now and it'd take two days. How I miss my 100 MB/s university connection.

Do German MasterCards work on UK PSN? How long are store bought Plus keys valid? Can I get two one year os from stores and apply tgem right ayfor two years of Plus? I'm hoping for somwae Easter deals.

And why is GAF mobile sometimes eating letters from other parts of the text when I want to backspace to correct something? And totally freaks out when I try to jump to the damaged words and repair them.
 
Cents? Can't say that's ever happened to me, but they do put a $1 hold on my card whenever I change it (NA PSN), maybe its a similar charge. Did you just add your card?

Yeah I just added it. My cc company blocked the transaction but I let it be processed.

They might have done what I'd like to call a "safety check", in which they charged your card £1 and immediately refunded it if it goes through, just to check that the card works. This is fairly standard practice in the UK for trials for subscriptions and for saving details to a shopping website, but it might not be elsewhere, hence the charge.

Thanks for clearing it up guys. I got worried when my credit card was declined due to the block haha.

You could try using a random UK address as your billing address with your US credit card. It works on amazon.com at least, I use address of some hotel in Las Vegas with a european CC to buy PSN codes. Have you tried game.co.uk? Dunno about codes, but they accepted my non-UK card in the past.

And then there are sites like http://cardscodes.com/, they charge a little bit extra, but don't put any limitations on your address or credit card. I bought a $20 code there once.
 
Not downloading, just installing.
I know what he feels. After I got PS+, it took me a day to download everything and another day to install it all.

Yeah, it's the installing, had to redownload and install ratchet since I got a new ps3 and also resubscribing.

Good news is that I got 15 months of ps+ resubscribing last night! Codes work for the 3-month bonus.
 
How is lve if you never played 999 and don't intend to?
It's fine, pretty much everything you need to know is explained in VLR through the dialog or the info files you can find by solving the alternate puzzles. Some stuff will lose its impact though, so you might as well read a plot summary of 999 to prepare yourself.
 
What's the best way to get US PS+? Amazon codes? How much does 3 months cost in the US? I'd love to play Spec Ops!

$18 for 3 months. You can just buy it directly from the PSN Store. (It goes towards those $50 for a $10 rebate, if you've already spent some money this month or are thinking of spending more.)

Buy US PSN codes from Amazon and redeem them on your account, and buy the Plus subscription from the US Store.
If you buy 1 year from US Store, you get $10 back in April.
 
I have to spend like $5 more to get to $30 credit, maybe some Dishonored DLC or some Sleeping Dogs DLC. I bought some things right after that PSN blog post confirming any purchases after the update Tues the 26th in Feb would count for the March offer, but I really should have just waited until March, I have a feeling they might get crossed up somehow and those might not get counted in the end.
 
I have about $23 more to spend.. to hit get $30 back. hmm
P4G seems like the clear choice.
but games like MonHunFreeU, Powerstone Collections are asking for my attention too
 
i have a question about PS+.

say i went ahead and bought 1 year of PS+, i got my own free games. and i also bought another games after discount from PS+

now, my 1 year finished, i can no longer play these games? not the games i got for free or the games i bought with the special PS+ discount ?

You can play the games you bought on discount after your Plus sub lapses. You only lose access to the games you got for free.

Discounted games you bought are yours to keep but the free games you will lose access to once your subscription is over, if you ever decide to renew PS+ the free games will be playable once again.

I have a question for you: why didn't you read the OP? ;)

Can I keep playing my games if I stop being a Plus-member?

Free games: no.
But if you re-register, you do regain access to your complete download history.

Bought games: yes.
Anything you spend additional money on, on top of your subscription, is yours to keep. This includes games bought with Plus-exclusive discounts.
 
Isn't Journey supposed to be going on sale this week in the UK?

I remember on the PS Blog they said to keep an eye out at the end of March and this week is the last week of March.
 
Good news is that I got 15 months of ps+ resubscribing last night! Codes work for the 3-month bonus.

so (to be 100% clear before I use the code!) you are confirming that a bog-standard 1 year scratch card code will give you 15mths?

amazing if true, PS+ just keeps giving!

Got paypal?

Use paypal on shopto dot net.

What the hell are you talking about? It's essentially GOW with a different skin. What's not to like?

Oh and is Disgaea 3 for Vita finally coming out this week?

It handles like shit, god of war in 2005 handled better. THQ going under was because they only released medicore games for years, Darksiders is the perfect example of this. Medicore graphics, gameplay, design, everything.

I honestly don't know what you mean by the bad handling. The combat is pretty much a carbon copy of GOW and it plays just fine IMO. I'm about 7 hours in and so far it's a lot of fun. I'm also not getting the bad graphics, but maybe I'm easier to please.

Out of all the games I got with PS+ it's the only one I'm really playing. Got bored to tears with Spec Ops the Line, I'm not really feeling Vanquish and the others I've played very little. I need to borrow Infamous from somewhere before getting into 2 as well.
 
Soooooooo how long before the blog posts what Plus members are getting this week?

sometime in the next few hours, but spoiler... we are getting disgaea 3 vita this week as a game as it's the only one left of the ones announced at the start of the month.

hopefully there are some interesting sales as well to help people that are close to getting another $10 back find something.

I know about Disgaea, I'm more interested in seeing what extra discounts Plus would be getting on certain highlighted titles ;)

Personally I'd like a PSX sale.
