Picked up Bioshock 2 myself, for when I finish Dragon's Dogma. Those piggin' metal golums!

IAmLee4121d ago

Nothing there that interest me, but I suppose each to there own. :D

DOMination-4120d ago

I always get everything anyway. Its free and who knows one day you might wanna play it..

IAmLee4120d ago

true, but I've had mortal kombat twice and the servers are bloody awful :')

xtremeimport4120d ago

I'd love to just download everything..except for when Street Fighter was 21gb. F#&K my internet limit right!

abzdine4121d ago

i go very rarely on PSS since the last update. i cant find anything i want and it's painfully slow

Riderz13374121d ago (Edited 4121d ago )

It takes like 30 seconds to check the content available to Plus members. Also if you rarely use PS Plus, why are you subscribed to it?

abzdine4121d ago

No need to play the smart ass like this, but you want to know more here you go:
because i hate the way they made the things with the new look.
the search engine is terrible and so slow, i try to DL a demo i have to accept 100 times, the PSS being a separate app is such a pain, i really dislike it. you choose "continue shopping" it throws you back on top of the page and you need to find your way to your last screen.

phantomexe4121d ago

I hate the new psn store...it's a GD mess and slow to top it off.

Yi-Long4121d ago

... and there are no excuses for how slow it actually is. In this day and age, with such fast connections, it's ridiculous to see pages with just some text and images load so excruciatingly slow.

I'm in Hong Kong right now, and last week signed up for the HK PSN, which still has the old style PSN Store, which also wasn't great, but at least it's better than what we got right now in Europe/USA.

LKHGFDSA4121d ago

Wow, I thought it was just me.
Yeah the store is very very slow and it's hard to navigate.
I usually spend about an hour just seeing the new content and downloading a couple demos.
I especially hate how you have to download each PS+ item individually, and wait for some of them to install before continuing.

I just want the PS4 to come out so this is all behind us.

Coogi4120d ago

30 seconds per page should be insulting compared to anything else realistically. I just got a new ps3 and it's slower than fuck compared to before.

tommygunzII4120d ago

The filter is nice though. I use that a lot when searching PSS.

ThanatosDMC4120d ago

I agree. I dont like the new store. If anything, they should have fixed our previously Downloaded list. Some of those games that we got for free cannot be downloaded directly from their pages so we have to scroll down through the download list while waiting for the damn thing to load 5-7 slots.

I have reach past 1000+ stuff downloaded on PSN. I bet there's people out there that downloaded more than me they might be more annoyed than I am. Btw, trying to scroll through the list on the Vita is even worse since after you redownload a game, it goes back to the top of the list.

That's why I'm really happy they introduced the web interface. But I heard it works only with Windows browsers :/

Cam9774120d ago

I have to agree with you there.
Today I tried to find LittleBigPlanet's DLC but thanks to the layout, it is all fragmented between LBP1 and 2 so I had to find the digital copies of each game then look at the "add-on" section.
I rarely visit the store now.

linkenski4120d ago

Yeah. It's an app in itself now so it has to load it outside of the PS3 home screen. It's slow and it doesn't even look or feel better.

I recently played Arkham City where there is an option to go to the PSN store by pressing Triangle at the main menu. It took me to a part of the PSN store that had the good ol' blue skin with square boxes. It was nostalgic, and it made me realise how much i hate the new store.

Can't understand peoples gripe with the new PS Store. It is a bit slow to load up but once it's running I never have problems with it. The search function has also been vastly improved since the last version of the store.

KUV19774121d ago

Vastly improved as in 'less results to go through since it doesn't find half the things that should match my search'?

I only use the webstore now and then download from the purchased-list. This one is actually usable: https://store.sonyentertain...

iamnsuperman4121d ago

I agree I feel like they tested this one and not really the PS3 one. The need vast stability improvements on the PS3 one

asmith23064121d ago

The last stores search function was rubbish, if you searched for something all this random crap would come up. New search function is great. I haven't had a problem with the new store except for the week it was released. Whiners.

KUV19774120d ago

At least I didn't need to throw an insult at you. For me the store doesn't always show what I am looking for, even when I know it is there. A lot of people have the same problem. It's great when it's working for you but it certainly isn't for me. It has nothing to do with being a 'whiner'. The new store is just plain broken for me. In the end you are also going to tell me the stores animations are smooth.

LackTrue4K4121d ago

The psn is slooooow! I used to go take a look ever Tuesday, but now I try and avoid it as much as I can. I only go in to get what I already have in mind, no more browsing. And if other people feel the same way (no browsing) they will lose some sales

waltyftm4120d ago

Downloaded, Mortal Kombat, Bioshock 2, Gotham city imposters and the Guardians of middle earth, going to be a very busy January for me, i have no problem with the store, and it only takes 30 seconds to load BFD.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5060d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905060d ago (Edited 5060d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5060d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5060d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495060d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5060d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5060d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
