Huh... Stick it to the man is more interesting than I thought. also digging the artstyle.

looks waaaay better in game then in the videos.
 
I'm considering buying a used PS4 (hopefully I can get one by next weekend). Should I also buy a Playstation Plus subscription? Where could I get it for the best price (in Europe)?

Yes, get PlayStation Plus. Plus codes are country based so you'll have to look in your own country.

Any reason why someone from Europe (not UK) shouldn't create an US account (or use an existing old PS3-era US PSN account) and buy a US PS+ subscription? I'm getting the PS4 later this week and I'd like to know in advance. Thanks!

It's fine. But you have to remember that you can't combine US dlc with EU game or EU dlc with US games.

Bought GTAV PSN version for PS3 over amazon.com when it had a sale and payed less than half of the price i would had to pay in germany. But when they release DLC for the PS3, i'm going to have to buy the US dlc for it to work.

Hmm. I guess it's only a problem if you buy EU PS4 games on disc then. And I could still buy the DLC for such a game from the EU store, right? Just won't get the PS+ discount or whatever.

What about playing online though?

yeah, you could buy the dlc from the EU store. and playing online you can do it on any account if you have at least one account on your PS4 with PlayStation Plus
 
I just ordered a PS4 and was wondering can I get plus now then add Mercenary Kings to my cart on the website and download it when it comes in? I thought I had heard you needed a PS4 console to get those games but I'm not sure if that was accurate or if it is still accurate.

Nope, just go through the website. I don't have a ps4 but I do it all the time.

I keep the PSN+ free games page bookmarked, anyone know why earlier on that I was seeing Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time (PS3) listed in the IGC, with no option to buy. I have been slacking on the news of what's coming, is that showing up this month? (US account)

It's gone now, but it was listed right next to the new offerings.

I'm from Mexico and we had PES2014 listed at full price. It's gone now from the IGC list though, since we got that changed to Sly Cooper with cross buy.

México gets Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time instead of PES.

I saw it too. Not a big deal for me since I already own the game.

Nevermind, I should really ask stupid questions in the stupid question thread.

I guess I should add something so I'll just rant about the state of my download list, PES added even more junk to it, Sony need to add some filters especially with more people getting PS+.
 
Well, I'm now the proud owner of a PS4 and I bought a one-year subscription to Playstation Plus as soon as I could :)

Edit: There's only one free game on PS4? :(

I remember when I used to think that was impressive. Then I actually bought a PS4 and played the free games I had. Turns out only a couple of them were any good.
 
You can use the online store if you can't do it through your console.

Anyway, it's too late to get all the free games I've missed :/

By the way, I had to create a brand new account because Sony wouldn't let me change my old PSN ID to match my username on GAF. That's annoying as it would have been cool to have my old trophies show on my profile. Now my list is pretty much empty.

Found a brand new PS4 on sale at 270 EUR - couldn't resist. Meeting up with the guy tomorrow to pick it up.

I am living in France right now. Would you suggest I pony up for a FR Plus account, or should I use amazon.com to get a US account?

Get UK account. I think the prices are usually the best there.

Wouldn't I have issues with my billing address though? I have a french debit card and an american credit card with which to sign up, but I'm not sure how I could go about creating a UK account.

It's really surprising to hear UK being cheaper :p The exchange rate doesn't usually work in their favor.
