Me too. Some of the reviews made it sound like the tracks are terrible and the weapon system is broken.

At first I did not like the deal knowing EU+ will get sleeping dogs next month, but after watching the gamespot review saying this is one of the best action games of all time I got hyped af . Can't wait to play this once I beat gravity rush.

EDIT: LBPK is great for $10. I've played the game last year and plenty of people go race in the community levels. There are probably more online players now after that $10 deal. Another thing that is great is that LBP 1 & 2 costumes also works on this one. Lots of garbage tracks made by users, but there are a lot too that are worth trying.

Gotta make room for NGS+ now...

NGS+ is for US+ Jan, while Sleeping Dogs is for EU+ Feb. I don't think we know what US+ is getting for Feb yet, so can't compare just yet.

Just an FYI about the 12+3 promo that is currently active where you get 3 months free of PS+ when buying a full year. It seems as if any activation of a year of PS+ triggers the promotion automatically.

I had G-stop credit to burn after Christmas and had purchased a 1 year membership card a while back in order to re-up my PS+ account. Being as my current 30 day subscription was set to expire in a few days I thought I'd activate it today. Lo and behold, I was given the bonus 3 months after inputting the scratch off code from the 12 month card I purchased over a month ago.

The message indicating that I would by using the promotion triggered as soon as I finished putting it in. About $3.33 per month for PS+? What a great deal! Way to go Sony!

Woot! NG+ for the VITA!!!
which reminds me, I received a PS+ Code for Europe for one month.
Does anyone want it?

Edit: Gone

sure I need to renew mine when it expire on 2nd..

Be nice to have Ninja Gaiden on the go (as long as I don't throw down the whole system in frustration). I'll cross my fingers for Lumines next month, as well. Although I'm really just hoping to see some PSP game sales.

And since I probably won't be spending any money on sales this week (unless that fishing game for Vita gets a demo and blows me away) I should probably decide some time tonight if I want Hot Shots Golf or not.

what time does EU PSN usually update? isnt it on wedensday? im on EST btw

So, crap, I guess no one ever figured out if LBP Karting digital version works with the disc-based game save? I've waited all week for someone to figure that out before I bought it .

I guess I'll be the guinea pig and just buy the damn thing and see what happens...

Welp, this'll be my first Ninja Gaiden. Any tips on how to play it?

With the understanding that it's completely unlike Devil May Cry or God of War. The controls will feel clunky, the enemies will hit you and you will think it's unfair. If you practice you may get better, but it takes an actual commitment. You may want to seriously consider playing on one of the easier difficulty settings until you become acclimated to the enemy types, even if you normally avoid easy modes.

darn it, i finally got around to entering the 3 annual codes i had about a month ago. that would have been an extra 9 months if i'd just waited. oh well.

Sleeping Dogs is their Feb game... we haven't heard what our Feb games are yet.

But I plat'd SD... great game, but I'd much prefer something else for obvious reasons. And I bought Lumines during the recent sale -- again, I'd much prefer something else.

Yep easy mode and also learn and perfect pulling off the izuna drop. Its cheap as hell to do it over and over but so are the enemies.

Almost broke many Xbox controllers back in the day playing NG Black.

THIS if it's anything like the original sigma there's no shame in playing on an easy mode. Their easy mode is most game's normal mode. And the harder modes are like gauntlet modes in other games. The key to beating this game is practice. You have to learn how every enemy behaves and avoid taking any damage. Be prepared to die a lot due to trial and error as you figure out how to do this.
