Playstation Network and PS Plus Discussion

[thaSLAB]

So there are free movies as a part of this as well? I must have missed that.

And PSN Asia must not be up yet; I tried to change my password for my account and it says: "PlayStation®Store is not available in the selected country or region."

Yes, there are three movies being offered: Ghostbusters, Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, and Bad Boys.

Also, the PSN is not up yet in Hong Kong and Japan. If you have a UK account, they have Ratchet & Clank Quest for Booty as an additional game to those offered in NA.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

Instead of trying to explain it,why not check out youtube...it would probably be easier to SEE for yourself instead of trying to explain it.

*BEWARE*
The game is HIGHLY addictive

thats the thing, i have seen video and i still am not sure what it is. i could not tell what the common goal of it is. i just see people jumping around with sackboy.

thanks for the explanation bcruise

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

As the owner of an old 40GB PS3, if these games are around 7GB each, I'm struggling to find hard drive space! I knew they wouldn't, but still wish Sony had given the option to order a game disc with the user paying for shipping.

The problem is that from previous experience downloading demos, it seems like you need at least 2x the size of the game free on the hard drive -- 1x to download the game, and then 1x to install it. After the install completes, the PS3 deletes the original download, but you still need 2x the space for the install operation.

I have 2 separate accounts, so I could download all 4 games, but even if I delete all my demos I calculate I can only free up 26GB of space. The OS & some massive game patches are tying up 11GB.

I know people will suggest upgrading the hard drive (I've considered it), but if it wasn't for downloading these free games, 40GB was more than enough space for me.

Must be different movies in the states. I have Hitch, Click, and some Resident Evil movie that I forget the name of.

Yup.....got myself all 5 games for the ps3. I'm glad cause I didn't know which ones to get since I've never played any of them. Actually, Wipeout, I played a long time ago. Didn't care to much but it was free. So I figured id get it.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

Did anyone else know this?

Q: Do I get to keep any games or content I purchased with the PlayStation Plus discount?
A: Yes. Any content you purchase at a discount is yours to keep, regardless of your subscription status.

I was under the impression that, if you wanted to keep the game after you were no longer a PS+ subscriber, you had to pay the difference of the PS+ discount and the regular price. I guess that's not the case then?

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

If your just getting around to changing your password you will notice the PSN site won't allow you to. If you log on http://www.qriocity.com/us/en/ you can change it from there. I know the PSN site hasn't allowed you to do this for over a week now due to the hacking. Hope this helps if anyone was still having trouble.

Well, not sure what I did, but my options for the two free PS3 games are gone and nothing is downloading or has already downloaded. Kept getting error messages last night. Any ideas what happened, or what I can do to to get the free games or is all lost? Thanks.

Start downloading infamous last night. Left the PS3 on and went to bed. Woke up this morning w/ it downloaded and installed, and the PS3 off. I think I'll do that w/ the 2nd game tonight.

Stuff you buy is yours forever (even at a discount), just the monthly free games are the ones you lose if you stop you PS+ membership.
