The Playstation Thread

[infernape612]

Just wondering - does anyone think the PS4 will be unveiled at E3 2013?

[Crimsonlink]

JB, yes I own a Vita.

infernape, they most likely will reveal something next gen if they don't plan on releasing this year.

Anyways my exams are over with. Can work on that PS All Stars Tournament now. I'll have it up by tomorrow hopefully.

[Born Better]

Anyone got a spare online pass thing for PS All Stars?

[The Admiral]

Is that something that's free? No offense, but otherwise, I'm not sure the likelihood is high that you'll get one. Unless you're proposing a trade.

[Born Better]

Don't know.Just figured I'd ask.

Nope use the one you should have gotten with your copy. If you bought it used or rented it then go grab one off the PSN. Its available now. Otherwise you are just looking to get a freebie which no one will give you.

PS All Stars is about Online play anyways, no one in their right minds would give it up.

The link to the tournament is in my sig. Right above PSN/Gamertag link. Click to go to the thread.

OK, for PS Plus+ People, if I buy a game with a discount, not a "Free" game will I keep the game after PS Plus+ has ended?

Yes they are yours to keep. The Instant game collection games warn you about the expiration of PSN+ makes you lose the games unless you resubscribe.

[Born Better]

Which explains why I lost Sonic 2 afteer the free PS+ thing ended.
Oh and I wasn't being serious about the online pass thing.I just felt like asking.

I really don't see the point of a Vista.

I wanted to post my Gamertag in the Gamertag thread but I see its several months old. Add me if you like, it's in my sig!

If you are thinking about getting Plus, I would definitely recommend it. I was one of those doubters, figured I would never use it enough to justify the purchase of it. Used a bit of birthday money for it and I was completely wrong about it. Plus is definitely worth it, without question.
The amount of games that are freely available to you are worth the $50 in one month alone, not to mention the other 11.
IF you live in the UK, WHY DON'T YOU HAVE THIS???
That is my only complaint with the service, is that the UK is given better free games than the US.
But for around $4.20 a month, I say its definitely worth checking out.

Vista? I think you meant Vita. Have you tried it out?

All the naysayers are usually ones who have not ever tried out a Vita or their tastes are so obscure that the Vita doesn't have the games they want.

I love my Vita and now is a good time to get one with the bundles and stuff. You could wait for a price cut but I wouldn't hold my breath until 2013 at the earliest.

Anyways lots of good games coming out for PS3 early 2013. Start saving money for GOW: Ascension and The Last of Us. Heck the GOW:A Multiplayer Beta is pretty sick. You guys should try it out on Jan 8th if you have PSN+. Or if you get lucky enough to start early on the Beta.

[Shadow Lucario]

I'm not too keen on God of War so Ascension isn't something I'm really looking forward to. I'm bummed because Square Enix said that the Kingdom Hearts collection is for Japan only.

[Zorocario]

I still need to purchase a Playstation tres, I'm currently focusing on purchasing games for my psp and ps2.

Bro, the PS4 or whatever it's called is coming out next year, why buy a PS3 now?

[Thomas Elliot]

Definitely meant Vita.
Sony just has not impressed me with their handheld gaming systems and the games they have had available.
I was one of the early adopters of the original PSP and I ended up owning more UMDs than I did actual games.

[the3rdH0kage]

Same. I'm going to get cussed out for this lol. But anyway I'm thinking of getting a PSP to play around with, it's the holiday season and all of my musical stuff is picking up (I'm in multiple groups at my high school). But I'm thinking of getting a Go. I have Wi-fi at my house, it's only $80 used at Gamestop, it has the 16GB of on-board memory. and I have a bunch of games on my Mediago that I can put on my psp. I'm not wanting to get a 1000 because then I'll need a memory card and I generally use my psp's (I have multiple PSP systems) as a flash drive of sorts. So instead of paying 50 for the system and 50 for a 8 GB memory card. I'm thinking $80 of the system and 16GB. opinions?

Because the PS4's library will not be huge at launch and PS3 is relatively cheap with subjectively the best library unless you love Nintendo games or shooters called Halo and Gears.

There is nothing wrong with buying a PS3 now and play that while the PS4 gets on its feet. Unless of course it has crazy launch games. We won't know anything until January at the earliest if Sony reveals then new PS at CES or wait for E3.

There is nothing wrong with that. Get the PSP Go if you want since most of your stuff is digital.

Yes, thank you. I know the PS4 is around the corner but there are a few games that I want to play but didn't get around to because of reasons beyond my control. Like the Uncharted series for example, I didn't get to enjoy this because I am poor, go to college and have no job. Now with the PS3 price drop I can finally afford it, not to mention I can buy these games new for like 20 bucks. Wow, I think I may start to do this for the next gen, get info on the good games and wait for price drop on both the console and the games.

Also save like $18 every 3 months and buy a PSN+ subscription or pay $50 for a year and get 12 "free" games until your subscription ends. Worth every penny. You will not get bored. Sure it sucks that you missed out on some really good games but there is a great selection right now on IGC (Instant Game Collection) on PSN+.

If you don't like digital then there are Sony Collections that save you major money so that you don't have to buy all the games individually. Uncharted has a dual park and a Trilogy is probably in the works. GOW has a collection and so do most Sony franchises. Great time to be a Playstation owner.

Thanks for the heads up! I'll probably get a ps3 after Christmas just in time for dat Tomb Raider reboot, and DMC.
