Any credit card or just UK?
What is a good way to view the games you've purchased on PSN?
I searched and found two ways:
- Look at your list of downloads (this method sucks because it's loaded with garbage like demos and avatar download, and you can't remove anything).
- Look at your transaction history (this method sucks because it's just like looking at a credit card bill).
Surely there is a way to easily look at a list of the games you own, such as on Steam or XBL, right?

There isn't.

I'm considering buying Little Big Planet PSP - is there any way to download levels to it from a PC, without using a wireless connection? I am the only person in the world who still doesn't have Wi-Fi.
Please buy a wireless router. Even if it's a shitty $20 one. Just do it.

okay ._.
It'll make your life much more convenient.
You can use Sony's MediaGo software to download PSP content to the PC and then copy it via USB to the PSP.

But not LBP community levels, since they aren't on the Playstation Store.

Yeah, I'll pick one up. Cheers.
Do the Tropico games allow you to really build big cities or should I be looking to the Anno games or somewhere else for that? This whole SimCity thing has me wanting to build enormous cities. I'm not a fan of Tropico's tone but it's not a deal breaker if it allows you to build the biggest by far. The time the game takes place in doesn't really matter.
IIRC the cities cap at 500 citizens (on the 360 version, I don't think I played the PC version much as I'd burned out on Tropico 3 already), so no, but it'll take you a good while to hit that many. I don't think it's what you're looking for but I still recommend the hell out of it anyway.
INEVITABLE COP-OUT ANSWER: Steam sale.
I'm thinking of getting FF VIII from PSN. Is there anything important I should know before starting? I.e. missable stuff such as the items for the celestial weapons in FFX, the chests you aren't allowed to open in FFXII or other beginner's traps that can screw you over sooner or later?
it's not Cage problem I think,the interactive show genre just not good (see how horrible Telltale's The Walking Dead is) video games should not be movies.
He is bad at writing and he probably doesn't realise it. Which is a shame, because some of the scenes in Fahrenheit (never played Heavy Rain) are really well done, especially in the beginning, but the story itself isn't even remotely good or coherent.

Yeah, "Do you want to quit the game?" and "Please wait a moment"

Get both Metal Gear Rising and Vanquish. Forget about steps one and two.

Heavy Rain is a huge improvement over Fahrenheit. You should give it a try if you own a PS3.
Thanks, I probably will in the near future. Didn't really like the demo, which is why I didn't get it sooner, but I'm still pretty interested in the game.

and since mass effect 1 and 3 are now on psn/ps plus respectively i am going to play them though again

I suspect you're - effectively - both right. That is, I *think* that message pops up if you open the UMD drive while a game is running. Therefore, if it's not a button, but the 'drive closed' detector that's sending false signals, that'd fit the bill; not a fault directly with the USB drive, just with that clasp.
None that I recall. Try not to spread awful card rules (i.e. random). Also, talk to Cid before your first real mission.
There is a small trigger on the left of the lens, I assume that thing checks whether the tray is open or not. Maybe it's loose or something?
Cheers, I'll keep it in mind.
Thanks. I pushed it a bit and for now I didn't have any problems anymore.

I'm replaying Zelda: Link's Awakening for probably the seventh or eighth time, and I noticed a little detail that I'd never really considered before: the aligator painter in Animal Village is named Schule Donavitch.
Why? It's so random for such a minor character to have a name, let alone a first AND last name. Is there some significance or reference behind it?

To save time and money, game companies buy a game engine (ie. the Unreal engine). Are there a such thing as an 3D model asset packs for sale? You would think with the ballooning costs of development, people would sell packs of models, textures, etc that developers could use in multiple games. Why pay a dozen modellers to design a dozen lamps a dozen times for a dozen games when you could just choose one from a pre-made list?
Yeah, it runs the risk of making the games look the same, but hopefully good developers would be smart about their use of these assets.

Anyone knows the name of this ost played from 2:55 - 3:40 of this video?

A lot of art assets in games are outsourced. It's a good way of lowering costs while getting material according to your specifications. There are also open source repositories that you can use if you have a small budget.

Thanks. You'd think developers would have their own personal 3D model "bank" that any new project could take from, with the condition that it must be tweaked in some way and then re-deposited.

It wouldn't surprise me if most developers had something like that. You can for instance see that several of the 3D models and animations in Demon's Souls are taken straight from King's Field IV. Why waste time redoing things from scratch if you can just reuse old assets?
