No multiplayer confirmed.

And im out.

Tomorrow (Wednesday 10 August 2011) the EU PS Store will get Splinter Cell HD Trilogy. And...

Quite why there's no bundle price I don't know, but I guess as the individual games work out cheaper it's no big deal at the moment.

 

[CozMick]

And im out.

Like you would play it anyway

My entire experience of Pandora Tomorrow and Chaos Theory multiplayer was a broken, laggy glitch-fest.

Not a great loss tbh.

 

[Clipper]

What's with EU getting all the better stuff out of plus? WTF is happening?

They just get it early. US has pretty much every good deal they've ever had in Europe at this point, but they haven't gotten everything we got. Plus, it's highly likely it will appear on the US store this week too. Limbo did hit both stores after all, and the discount on the US store even lasted longer than the European one.

 

[CozMick]

Plus content is on the EU store...

Not quite sure why Splinter Cell is £4.00 more expensive than it's sequels :\

Automatic updates and cloud saves are worth the cost of entry to me. It took me 3 minutes to upgrade to firmware 3.70, from power on time to start game time.

Hey I've got a question here. I downloaded the dragonage origins full game trial, a big 12Gb download. After the hour has passed, it saked me if i wanted to purchase it. I did. But when I start the game again, it seems i only have one hour to play it even if i bought it...

What's the deal? Do i have to redownload it again? Please say no!

I haven't downloaded any of the 1-hour trials but I think if you start the download again and cancel right away it should be good.

Ok so i began the download. It said activating. Then ipress background download, go to download management then canfel the download. The one hour limit is still there!!

Wow. Now I want to know how to fix it. If someone here doesn't know then you should call Sony.

 

[peull]

Even in the transactions history the purchase shows up... Dont tell me i have to redownload the whole thing again??

Like there are two versions. The one with an hour limit then you purchase the one without limit and have to download this one......

We get to play unfinished software and act as free labor to test them?!?!?! Sony take my moneys!!!!

Download the one without the time limit, let it activate and as soon as it begins to dl, cancel it. Sounds like you did this but I'm unsure. Try deleting game date but don't delete your save file nor the game either. Maybe to that and try to redownload?

Might as well stop playing demos.

I, for one, love betas as it's not unfinished software and is the final product with a few tweaks missing. It gives a great idea of what you will be paying for when the software finally releases.

Does anyone else absolutely hate the way they've changed the layout for the PSN Plus stuff? I couldn't find comix zone after going under games instead I had to go under Plus exclusives to finally find it. I get the feeling I'm going to miss on free stuff I want eventually due to their dumbass layout they changed to. So bad.

The only good thing about it is the last chance folder.

Things keep going like this and it looks like I won't be renewing when my time is up in October. Doesn't seem worth it to me anymore. I'll buy a month if I get a new system in order to transfer copy-protected saves but other than that, meh.

 

[elohel]

whats that running total of savings that plus brings you? forgot where that is....

Question

How do you get demos you want to download early without me going to the store to do it? i.e. NHL Demo came out today, is their anywhere I can go to queue this up for download.

I heard we could do this download but not install, how do you do it?

I have mine set for on for patches and save stuff, that's all I have.

 

[Shadow780]

$881.57, that's if you wanted to buy everything.

 

[Outtrigger888]

I just got a psp go and was wondering if psp games are discounted to plus members or what offers there are that I could benefit from.

I don't remember PSP games ever getting discounts. Minis and PS1 games are often free or discounted however. Getting PS+ if you don't have a PS3 seems like a waste of money.

 

[tigerin]

hey guys, i just got a 30 days free trial with psn plus from my infamous 2 bundle. but after i entered my code in, they forced me to put in my credit card info. i i don't feel like filling t out because the sony hacked incident made me a little paranoid now. so question is, are there anyway i can bypass that to redeem my 30 days? thanks

 

[number1jagsfan]

How is the automatic update thing supposed to work?

I turned it on, from 22:00-0:00, and have been leaving my ps3 on standby, and it never turns on at 10 o'clock, and hasn't been uploading my saves to the cloud so I guess it hasn't been turning on at any other time either. What's the deal?

I'm wondering the same thing... just got a 3-month and did the same thing but I still have to manually go to my trophies to sync it. Weird.

 

[Fox1304]

Yep, mine doesn't seem to be working anymore too .
Maybe a problem with their wakeup system or something ?

I think its broken, mine has never turned on the specified time since 3.70

Lol, oh well at least it's not just me. Great feature!

 

[Andrefpvs]

Mine used to work fine but stopped working when I switched to another country's account and back.

It stopped working after that, even reactivating the option won't work anymore.

You may have something there, I swap between my UK and US accounts constantly. I hope there is a way to get automatic update working though, manually saving to the cloud is a real hassle.

Autoamatic update is buggered since 3.70

Set your clock by internet and it works. Or does for me and some others

 

[CozMick]

Playstation Plus One Year Subscription is now only £31.99 on the UK Store.

Not sure for how long.

 

[Carl]

That would be because of this

I think this worked for me. I told it to update the time via internet yesterday, and it synced last night. First time in weeks I think. Thanks for the suggestion.

 

[Fuzzy]

Damn.

Wait another day since it only does it every other day.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Wait another day since it only does it every other day.

I'll let you all know tomorrow then.

Edit: even though i reactivated the feature -- pre-3.70 this was enough to force the updates to occur that night.

It also might not do it right at the start of the 2-hour window you pick. Also, I'm pretty sure that if you have the PS3 on then it'll skip it and you'll have to wait another 2 days. This is why I have it set for the middle of the day when I'm not home.

I know. This was not the case.

That redo the time through internet thing worked for me too, thanks!

 

[UnluckyKate]

I took a second yearly subscribe to PS+ but I'm away from my system for 6 month. How not to " loose " the montly content ?

 

[Ardenyal]

Redoing the time and resetting internet connection settings only worked once for me. Tried setting the time etc again yesterday but it just won't work anymore :/

 

[Fuzzy]

Have someone else log into your account on their PS3 and get the downloads for you so they're in your download history so you can download them once you're back to your PS3.

 

[Slaylock]

God of War: Ghost of Sparta demo will be available on August 30 for PSN+ members, a week before the general public.
