Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

Anyone play Bloodrayne? Was it any good?

Also a mild interest in Fate/Extra, as I'm watching that anime universe at the moment.

Will download all the Crash games to my PS3, though I already own the first two on disc.

That is just for the client. There is another 125mb update and then the 14.5gb download.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

I really wished they would have made the bulk of that downloaded from the store so we could use the "turn system off after download" option. Based on the 5% that I downloaded last night it is going to take 4 hours, which probably means it will take closer to 5 or 6, I'd like to do that overnight but I don't want to leave it on for 9 hours.

Anyway, Home redesign launches tomorrow: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/...this-thursday/

The next stage of PlayStation Home‘s evolution will arrive on your PS3 this Thursday, November 3rd. This enormous update integrates games, quests, community events and user-generated content, while providing players with additional navigation, shopping, socialization, and entertainment options.

• PlayStation Home Hold ‘Em: A series of backroom poker tables hosted in the brand new Sportswalk district, PlayStation Home Hold ‘Em squares players off in a no-holds-barred, winner-take-all battle of the bluffs.

Your adventure will start at the Hub, which hosts a featured game front-and-center, an Activity Board that includes a robust questing and events system, and stores packed with games, personal spaces, and avatar enhancements. From there, players can navigate to genre-based Districts that are packed with exclusive games and content served up according to each player’s interests, style and game preference. The following game Districts and redesigned core spaces will be available tomorrow:

• Action District: A gathering place for hardcore gamers, the Action District has a gritty, urban feel reminiscent of a first-person shooter level and provides a direct travel point to action and horror games. Visit the Action District this Thursday to play two classic PlayStation Home Total Game Integration events that allow players to unlock content in Killzone 3 and Dead Island.
• Sportswalk: The Sportswalk has an exciting outside-the-stadium feel with instant major league sports scores, headlines and highlights and sports-themed games.
• Adventure District: At the launch of the PlayStation Home redesign, the Adventure District will present the UNCHARTED 3: Fortune Hunter total game integration event, providing a third-person adventure experience including a partial recreation of the Yemen level from UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception multiplayer mode and a cover-based shooting system complete with weapons and gameplay inspired by the hit series. Players can earn unlockable content that can be used in the Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception Blu-Ray Disc game as well as additional PlayStation Home rewards.
• Pier Park: A waterfront boardwalk leads players to carnival, puzzle, outdoor and arcade games. Take a ride on the Pier Park Ferris wheel or visit the arcade for more games.
• PlayStation Home Theater: The PlayStation Home Theater sports an ultra-modern architectural design and hosts a wide range of videos programmed specifically for PlayStation gamers, including episodes of Pulse and Qore, trailers and interviews from the PlayStation Blog, and exclusive user-generated videos in the popular Community Theater.
• PlayStation Home Mall: The all-new PlayStation Home Mall is loaded with thousands of pieces of content from some of the most popular game and entertainment IPs in the world. Shop for PlayStation Home games, extravagant personal spaces, costumes, clothing items and other avatar enhancements, and tons more in the redesigned Mall.

How Many Devices Can You Attach to a PSN Account? From five down to two.

As of November 18, 2011, the number of devices that can be associated to one PSN account will be decreased.

A statement on the official PlayStation blog states that PS3 users will be able to play the game on up to 2 PS3 systems, while PSP users will be able to play the game on up to 2 activated PSP systems.

Formerly, content could be accessed across 5 devices.

The post also states that Sony Computer Entertainment intends to provide a new PlayStation Network account management website that will allow users to easily deactivate devices attached to their PSN accounts.

Importantly, the update will not affect games bought before November 18.

What do you think of the decrease? Is 2 too few? Let us know in the comments below.

Sony will be providing a self service website for account deactivation. So if you're doing it with close friends I'm sure you'll still be able to gameshare, just with a little bit more hassle.

This sucks. I have two PS3's, so I guess that's all I can limit it to.

How will it narrow down the two PS3's? Will we have to reactivate all of our systems on the 18th?

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

That's a good question. They would have to make us. I can't think of another way of doing it.
