There is a disc release: http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2015...f-the-year-edition-launches-on-25th-november/. Though I don't know if the Old Hunters is included in the disc or just a download code.
Hmm, I had forgotten than I ordered a Vita TV during one of those Amazon firesales for $40. I can't remember, am I able to just pop out my Vita memory card and throw it in to play digital games if it is the same account for Vita and Vita TV or does that not work?
Have a pretty healthy Vita backlog going right now, 3rd year of med school isn't leaving me with much time. 4th year promises to have more time though, so looking forward to catching up.

So I finally ordered a 2TB drive for PS4 ($70 on Amazon right now!), delivered within 2 hours via Amazon Now.
I probably messed it up, but in preperation I:
- Made sure my saves were backed up to online storage
- Deleted all applications but PT, so I could use the backup/restore function to a small USB stick. (The backup option can only backup EVERYTHING, not specific content)
So if I manage to install the new drive, I plug in the USB drive and restore the PT backup?
Hope it works..

Ugh, VitaGAF, I need some help...
I was fiddling around with my Vita this morning and one of my PSP games said the file was corrupt. I'm on a 64GB card, by the way. So I went to rebuild the database, except that my Vita crashed before it got to do it. I booted it up and everything was gone.
That didn't seem like too much of a problem. I got everything to come back up by rebuilding the database a couple of times, but now when I launch my digital Vita titles, most of them crash when they boot up. I haven't had this problem with any of the PSP or PS1 games I've tried.
How can I fix this? Do I need to just re-download everything? Can I still backup my saves if it's in this state, or would I be better off finding an older backup?

It could be the console causing the issue (not the memory card or its contents). Try doing a system restore with your memory card out, then put it in and rebuild the database. Might fix more of the issues.
If not, you're kind of in a weird state; anything you back up to the cloud might be corrupt, and anything you try to backup will overwrite old stuff you've got backed up - putting you in a corner.
You can sync to PC fresh by copying out the existing PSVita folder and then have it make the backup completely anew and see if that works, but that's only useful if you have the extra room and technical skill.

Chapter 8 definitely wasn't as good, but I'm still enjoying it.
Just man, in chapter 7 when

what model please? i'll do the same I think at that price.
Saw the games that are part of the black friday sale....man, there some some great prices.
SAO Hollow Fragment Vita being 10 bucks, Skylanders SuperChargers Digital version being 30 bucks (add the 20 or so dollars needed for the Sky and Sea rides and you can access everything for 50 bucks
), and Order 1886 for 10 bucks is a great price for the game (short story and great visuals are worth 10 bucks I feel).
Great sale and even though I am not getting anything (just spent 40 bucks on Lost Song and don't have extra funds for more games right now XD), I highly recommend people give SuperChargers and Hollow Fragment a look.
The former is a great action/platformer that feels like a great mascot platformer (if my enjoyment of Swap Force means anything) while the latter is a fantastic JRPG that while has some story/characterization/translation issues is still a great game to play through with massive worlds to explore and a great combat system to play around with.

Added Destiny The Taken King and Until Dawn to my collection, now I already have 6 PS4 games while waiting for it to arrive.

It should be STDR2000100, I'm just about to install mine. But this is the one everyone says works well with PS4.

Upgraded to 2TB and I still have a working PT install/license!
Restored the system and no luck...
I'm gonna try to pop my memory card in my Playstation TV and see if everything is broken on there. I'll probably have to dig up backup saves on my older memory cards if all else fails.
EDIT: Yep, it's the memory card. Guess I'll have to restore my stuff.
That's the one that looks like a standard external HD but you can just take the 2.5" drive out of the case right? Confirming since for that price I'd probably upgrade my PS4's drive, want to make sure I'm seeing the right thing.
Not sure if I should, since I currently have a 1TB hybrid drive, which might be faster. But I just filled up my Xbone which I never play or buy games for, I can only imagine I am nearing the limit of my 1TB PS4 drive.
Also, I'm jealous you live in an Amazon Now area...

Correct, you can pry open the case, take out the drive, open your PS4, screw it in, and after downloading a restore file from Sony and putting that on a USB drive, you're good to go.
2TB is nice though, even 1TB would fill up fast.
Bamco pls
Put this on JP PSN already
PS1 GOAT realness.

hey guys i have a question about game sharing.
i bought a US code on amazon (i'm from EU) and i want to share it with someone.
if i make a new US account, redeem it on PSN can i just give him the login, he activates the account as main and we both play it?
i have my main EU account as main in the moment, is there a limit?

Your console has to use the account as primary console. Than you can play the game with your account (europe) and stay offline.
The console of your friend needs to be the secondary console. He can play the game when he uses the us account and is online.

Is there a way to tell my PS4 to only download one thing at a time?
autoduelist

Pause everything else? IIRC go into your download list and just click X on stuff to pause... if it's not that exactly, there should be a button prompt telling you what to do [maybe Option button?].... but I think it's just click X.
Doesn't it already? Never saw mine doing simultaneous downloads.
If you want to change what's being downloaded, just pause everything but what you want, and when it begins downloading unpause the rest.

That's what I ended up doing, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a huge download queue as you need to keep eye on it.
It always attempts to do three things at once for me.

Yeah, but only for the first thing really... then once you're playing that everything else can dl in the background.

Are there no good PS Plus deals for the US?

Hm. Ok, thanks. My primenow doesn't have it.... but I can get it through regular amazon. Now i just need to decide if I want to spend another $70.
To be fair, a lot of the Vita's line up has been on sale at some point; not much to put on sale anymore.
Still, the I feel that the prices for Vita games thanks to the frequent sales have been great honestly; a lot cheaper then getting 3DS games (which are 30-40 bucks a pop).
This year got lots of good deals for 2014 titles and a few 2015 games having step price drops (Ar No Surge Plus being 20 bucks a few weeks back was a fantastic deal).

It is very annoying. Sony doesn't give a lick about Vita.
