PS4 Megathread 2.0

um7y1h83ge06nx

Just bought BF4 and the upgrade there.

Regarding the file size of the upgrade:

"it will download 6 gigs first so u can play the campaign only. the rest gets downloaded and installed separate. almost 2 hours for me and the campaign is ready but only 31% of the full game."

And it looks like you cant use it on pre-orders on the EU store. I was planning on using it for Bloodborne :mad:

Use One-Time 10% PS Store Discount This Weekend...

Excluding Subscriptions leaves a sour taste. It's meant as a goodwill gesture due to the issues to the network and the network we pay for isn't even included in the discount.
.

All PS+ members during the downtime are getting an automatic 5 day extension and that's it. Not a great good will gesture at all really. A free Month would be more like it.

I don't mind that to be honest. it's just annoying that they mentioned a 10% discount and then applied some exclusions afterwards.

It doesn't make the gesture look as sincere imo. I'm still happy to get it but as I said.. just leaves a sour taste.

Surely i'd also need to buy a US PS+ sub to avail of the 10% discount?

Captain Chaos

So a 10% discount with restriction and a limited 3 day window to use it. Add to the fast the US can use it on games we can't etc.

Not good Sony.

Not worth it as you have to get US store credit on Amazon.com so you will end up having to spend more than you need to to use a 10% discount code. The difference between the € and $ is at an 11 year low right now so not much of a saving to be had anymore.

Depends on the game surely? Quick example, Witcher 3 is $54 or €65. Hefty enough saving.

Of course it's worth it, the games are cheaper, it's not just a straight currency conversion.

Res Evil HD works out at $17.13 on the US store. It's €20 here. Not worth the hassle there.

Sure I got Infamous last year for €43 on the US store but having to get US Store credit for a higher amount and the fact I can't trade in make the whole process not worth it at all.

I just get the physical copies cheap on Amazon a week or so after release and the price drops, play it and trade it in CEX. New game for about €25 and I'm not left stuck with a digital title I'll probably never play again. Only a few classics I hang on to to go back on.

Indeed it's always worth it. Best to buy most games from there so any extra dollars in your account will be used up anyway.

Heebusjebus was looking to pre-order an upcoming release, €69.99 here or $54 or whatever it is there.

Not really comparing the same are ya. Comparing stores here. You like physical copies, others like digital. US store is cheaper than EU and Oz store, and often enough released before.

Captain Chaos

True, I only buy PSN only titles and with the current prices and excahange rate there is very little difference in price between the EU and US store unless you are buying AAA titles. Which IMO people need their head checked paying out more than €55 on a new release AAA/boxed game. I excpected digital versions of physical game to be cheaper to buy as was predicted 10 years ago before Steam was a thing. Everyone said they would be cheaper with no overhead shop costs like rent and wages etc. But here we are paying well over the odds unless you screw the system.

/ends rant.

I was given 50 euros yesterday by a very nice person so I brought GTA 5 in the end, just waiting for it too dispatch now

Also you would have had to had the U.S. PS+ during the downtime.

All silvers and golds too, odd list. Looks like the list of a B list low budget movie tie in game.

Hopefully the game will be good now too

Will get that, for Borderlands 2 is hope you can transfer characters like with the Vita.

Who's up for a team of 4 clap traps.

PSN down for anyone else?

Sigh. Actually no, I don't mind remastered editions at all, I just mind that few of the games I like have got it yet.

Bought Wolfenstein like a week or 2 ago on adverts for 20euro, only got around to trying it out last night as was away most of the time with exams and what not... Absolutely amazing game, only got about 2hours of gameplay in but looking forward to the rest... Hopefully CEX will still offer 20euro cash for it next week so I basically get to complete the game for free as I will need the money...

Must actually try out the online too, loved the Wolfenstein on PS3 for online and story, although I don't think I got around to finishing the game sadly... Well worth picking up if you can get for about 30euro or less on adverts...

This game is such a success because the developers focused on the single play experience, just like the original FPS'ers.
To me this is one of the best games out there - great fun, good story - looking forwards to playing it again in a few months.

Some of us just don't enjoy the online experience anymore. Whether its due to latency or just not getting it the solo game here really benefits from the experience.

And on the completely other side of things, Planetside 2 beta is out today in the US, EU a bit later.

Runs 3pm to 9pm pst (Tuesday-Thursday), and on Friday it's 3pm to 9pm Sunday and again pst.

11pm here, won't be playing until the weekend.
