Can Tekken be played online?

Re: Playstation Network and discussion

Sharing? So you can trade in games you've bought back towards credit on other games?

I think I read that there's no online play.

This sounds cool, did you trade with another PSN member?

Re: Playstation Network and discussion

I tried the blast factor demo last night. I wasn't overly impressed by it but I only played it once. It just seems like a geometry wars ripoff.

Re: Playstation Network and discussion

Sony allows you to share the games you purchased(Playstation store) with a friend, up to 5 PS3's. It was stated in one of their press conferences but no one believed that they would do it, but its true. So you can log onto your account on your friends PS3 and give him the game. Over at GAF, there is a thread for game sharing, which mean you have to share your account info(delete all your important stuff like credit card ect...) Once you've log into the account, you can go to down load list and download the game.

I offered up Blastfactor which is a fun game and Sodoku and for the right too have TekKenR. It doesn't have online, but it has ghost of the top players in Asia, that you can battle. Its an intergrity system, so you have to have the trust factor. Its a cool way to get games and you keep the game you purchased.

The games coming down the pike for NA, are FLOW and Gripshift for Jan. and maybe

Here's how its done for those who you trust over the net.

PS3 game sharing.

INSTRUCTIONS/FAQ ON GAME SHARING

For the "sender":

1. Purchase and download a game from the Playstation Store
2. Go to account management for the account and delete the billing information from your personal information if the PS3 saved your credit card info
3. Change your password temporarily for the share
4. Give login info (email address and password) to the receiver
5. When the share is completed, change the password


For the "receiver":

1. In the PS3 XMB menu, add a new user account on your PS3 and sign in to it
2. Select the network on the XMB and create an existing Playstation Network account
3. Use the login information given from the "sender" to create the existing account
4. Login into the account
5. Enter into the Playstation store
6. Click on "Download List" on the upper right near the person's userID and select the game you wish to download and hit download
7. After game is downloaded, notify the "sender" that the download is complete so they can change the password to the account
8. Enjoy!




Q/A:

Q: Should I worry about misuse for my account?
A: If you taken the steps to delete your credit card/billing information and changed your password temporary, it should be safe. If you're paranoid about someone stealing your account, only share with people that you really, really trust

Q: Can't I just make a sub-account and use that to share the games?
A: Not sure if this is allowed, but someone could try and report the results

Q: I just received the game from the sender and the game won't play, help!
A: In order to play the game on your PS3, the game must be activated AND the user account that was used to download the game must stay on your PS3. For example, say you created user account "User1" on your local Playstation 3 and you downloaded a full version of Lemmings. After you download the game, you MUST keep "User1" on your Playstation 3 in order for the game to run on your PS3. If you somehow delete the user account, you must relogin with the sender's account and redownload the game. If the game is still on your HDD, simply redownload then cancel to re-authorize the game.

Q: Do I have to login with the sender's account to play the game?
A: No, it just needs to be authorized on your PS3. You can play the game using your account thereafter. Just do not delete the user account as mentioned above or else the game will be locked out.

Q: I'm trying to download the game from the Playstation store but it is not appearing in the store. Where is it?
A: Games that are purchased disappear from the store. You have to download the game going through the "Download List" screen on the upper right of the Playstation Store.

Q: How many times can I share a game?
A: The store says you can share up to 5 different Playstation 3's.

I would never do that with a stranger, it would only be someone I actually know. I could just see doing that and then the person changes your password to something else and you can't get back in... No thanks. Cool idea though.

That's why you give the person a limited amount of time to download the game, because I changed my P'word once he was finished DL.
