Why can't they do this for the UK as well.

franwex3287d ago

Make an American PSN; I have an European and Japanese one!

Eidolon3286d ago (Edited 3286d ago )

Do you get anything good out of the sales they have on JP/EU store?

franwex3286d ago (Edited 3286d ago )

@Eidolon:

No; but Remember when PSN was down for a few months and we got free games? Well; I got all the games for free :P

I think it is more beneficial for Europeans to get US than vice-versa because we get more sales!

Blastoise3287d ago (Edited 3287d ago )

Everyone on the EU blog asks all the time, but it doesnt seem likely. You can set up a US account on PS4 & PS3 though and play them on your UK account. If you need credit i'd recommend Target as they accept a straight convert in prices through paypal

As for the PSP/Vita games though you're screwed because account switching is a pain in the arse

Caffo013287d ago

amazon.com is good too.. you just need to change the address of your credit card with a fake US one in the card details.

franwex3287d ago

Considering Pier Solar...

Also, why is it more expensive to by Zone of the Enders together than separately?

PygmelionHunter3287d ago

Yeah, I might jump into Pier Solar for that price. Also, been meaning to replay Demon's Souls for a while now.

Dunno about Zone of The Enders, that's just dumb XD

Xof3287d ago

Fair warning: Pier Solar really isn't very good.

Blank3287d ago

Not even six bucks good?? I spent more for crappier games, ill bite anywho though.

Xof3287d ago

Not even $6 bucks good.

Especially when, come on, Suikoden II is on sale too.

franwex3286d ago

I got Suikoden II instead! Thanks for the heads up!

blackblades3287d ago (Edited 3287d ago )

I said the same thing, it's $12 buying them separate cheaper them buying them together in a collection so stupid. You can get the physical for $13 and even less.

AAAAAAANNNIMMMMEEEEEE!!!!!

The best PS5 exclusives 2024

With so many PS5 exclusives to choose from, it can be a little overwhelming to pick which one to play. This is especially true for a new PlayStation gamer who has yet to experience the wonder of PlayStation-exclusive storytelling. So, here's KnowTechie's take on the best PS5 exclusives in 2024 and beyond

PlayStation is killing it with the exclusives this year. Exclusive wise, what has xbox released this year?

VersusDMC13d ago

They won't complain about Microsoft not releasing games here but put all their effort into saying that only first party counts. Games like Rebirth and Grandblue Relink don't count. Games published by Sony like Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin don't count because Sony don't own the studios.

It's some narrative building so for when Hellblade 2 come out they can say, seemingly without shame, that Microsoft is actually releasing first party games this year. And claim victory.🙃

Chevalier13d ago

Weird 1st party games didn't matter when Xbox had so little, but, now they're important again? Guess Ark 3, Stalker 2 don't count any more?

KyRo13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

ARK 3 doesn't exist and it's just a timed exclusive. It's also a game that a majority of the ARK player base doesn't want as it's a massive deviation from what people like about the original game

Abnor_Mal13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Honestly to me it doesn’t matter what they say, they are just finally getting a chance to say all the things PS fan(boy)s were saying to them for the past few years. Let them get that, they deserve a “win” for a change.

The new narrative is that suddenly first party games matter again when awhile ago they didn’t, but that was because they were struggling with the same three games with the occasional fourth or fifth. That games should be everywhere on all platforms since that’s whats happening to theirs. The consoles don’t matter just the ability to play anywhere. Whatever Xbox is doing Sony will soon follow.

They’re not moving the goalpost anymore, but rather just moving the whole damn stadium.

jwillj2k413d ago

Only a incel would care about who published what and who owns who.

If it’s not on the other consoles it’s an exclusive.

Killing what? Where are the 1st party games??
Stellar Blade and FF7 is what I’m seeing this year.. so shallow!!!!

andy8513d ago

Doesn't really matter as long as they're great games. Baffles me why people put an emphasis on 1st party. They're still games you can't play anywhere else this year

Cacabunga12d ago

Andy

PS brand is my favorite because of their stellar first party software.. currently I see absolutely nothing to go crazy for..

CS712d ago

Nonsense.

PS1 and PS2 was built on great third party exclusives like FF, MGS, GTA & Tekken.

Of course I love the games I’ve played from PS but I don’t believe we need to limit it to ‘exclusive’ to acknowledge that Xbox will be releasing some good games this year also. In that same vein, I believe that Xbox diehards shouldn’t limit their acknowledgment of good PS games to 1st party. There are plenty of good games to go around for everybody.

Tacoboto13d ago

This is a Playstation article about Playstation games and your comment is about Xbox. Can't you just celebrate what PS has without dragging this into console war BS?

ChasterMies13d ago

I don’t think Microsoft is releasing games exclusively on Xbox anymore. They have some timed exclusives that release on Xbox first.

Abear2113d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.

GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.

But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.

Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf is going on at Xbox that they can’t get these games, series s strikes again.

SonyStyled13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

Sony owns the Helldivers IP. The first was a PS3/Vita/PC game. It was never an Xbox game that they could ‘get’ a decade ago. I’m not sure what the upset is with Xbox here

CS712d ago

Lol, how do you ignore Rebirth one of the best games ever made?

anast13d ago

Looks like they are on par with the previous gens. Solid games all around. Interestingly enough, we can't say they released a bad game yet this gen. Unlike the Quiet Man dustup.

I actually do not mind if Marathon releases on multiple platforms . I just wish that Marathon has a dedicated single player campaign.

DaniMacYo13d ago

Helldivers 2 is exactly what gaming needed. I’m loving it.

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.

Popsicle39d ago

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.
