LOL I did the same thing. I was bummed too cause I'm getting close to my Call of Juarez Platinum but had to update.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion Part Deux

I couldn't find it either.

As far as uploading videos to Facebook, you do it through the video editing system. Same goes with photo stuff, which can be found in the ever-so-confusing Photo Album software.

The other Facebook "options" can be found under Account Management, like if you want trophies, purchases, and events to show up on your Facebook statuses.

Apparently being a Plus member gives you a shiny gold gamepad icon next to your name that anyone on your friends list can see - several on my list have already taken the plunge.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion Part Deux

One more thing...they added a rating system to the PS store. I like how they did it where you can only rate content that you've purchased on the store - although it means you aren't likely to find games with less than 3 stars (because no one buys them), it keeps trolls from 1 - starring popular ones.

That's not to say I haven't seen games with sub 3* scores...in fact, I even own one of them - PAIN.

As you'd probably expect, several of the PS1 classics already have thousands of votes and are almost rated 5* - the FF games and MGS, most notably.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion Part Deux

Yeah saw that as well. It's a nice idea.

I noticed it when downloading (my 10 free games for buying a PSP Go) last night that even the PSP games have ratings.

I'm convinced EA just plain forgot or stopped caring about that one, seeing as it's still priced at $50.

I'm sure they won't forget to take your money if you pay that price for it.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion Part Deux

Well I played the full hour of inFamous from the trial. Man, they weren't kidding... it's exactly sixty minutes from startup then it shuts right off in your face (they do give you 15 minute interval reminders and a five minute warning though). I played the demo before but I was just goofing off then, so this time I did three missions and the game was pretty fun. I don't think I'll go off buying it just yet though, and I already deleted the trial so I think it erases my save point and trophies as well (that was stupid of me), but if it drops to $20, though $30 is plenty low as is, I think I'll get it.

Has anyone tried the new DLC for Fat Princess? I'm thinking of getting back into that game as I love it, but there are too many games that I want to get back into now that I gotta figure out which ones I should start with.

[injunwal]

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion Part Deux

InFamous was\is a great game. I have a felling that trial will get some people to buy it who would have otherwise overlooked it

I have around the same and only a few have subscribed. And they're all OS'ers. I'm still on the fence myself.
