Was anyone else just having trouble connecting to PSN? My PS4 was taking forever to boot up to the main menu. I restarted it in safe mode and let it sit buffering on the blue login page for a few minutes and it finally booted up, but my friends list and whatnot weren't loading. Went on my PS3 and got an error message when trying to login (its working now though). Hoping that network issues was why my PS4 was acting screwy and not something with the system itself.
See my post above yours.

Also, fuck you Asshole gamefly customer who couldnt be fucking bothered to use the cardboard sleeve.

Got TLOU from gamefly, fucking disc wont read due to a decent chip on the edge. It kinda sorta read, first go game didnt load, second go game loaded up and play past the opening then said nope, cant read this shit and errored again.

Bastard.

Some sites are claiming DDOS, but I don't think anything has been confirmed yet :whee:

 
Second son update:

while I won't say it is as awesome as infamous 2 I do like it a lot so far. I have always been a fan of infamous and this is just more of the same in a pretty package.

the characters are well acted so far which I always appreciate. I haven't noticed anyone mail in their voiceovers yet. Delsin is snarky and I like that so far. If I were a younger guy that just got super powers I would imagine I would be pretty snarky (and awesome) myself. Anyway he would fit in well around here.

I only just got to Seattle so didn't get that far but more of the same won't change my opinion much. This is much more fun than killzone that's for sure.

relax man. I am sure it isnt that easy to pin point these type of issues in a couple hours. Especially when it sounds intermittent. Sony isnt going to come right out and say they have an issue and neither is an ISP.
Relax?

You need to get worked up. This shit will not stand. I need my Diablo 3 fix....

 
Yo Matt,

Look what my dad found in his front yard tree. My mom wants to curb stomp the white things because she's afraid they're going to hatch and take over the garage.

I made the mistake of trying to trophy sync. It gave me an error, but then when I tried to hit OK after it just game me a blank blue screen.  The PS button worked enough for me to put it in standby and then boot it back up again after.  When it came back up I got a notification that there was PSN maintenance going on.

Ok. That's some of the weird stuff I've been experiencing too.

Edit: Now it boots up like normal and a litte notification tells me PSN is undergoing maintenance. Crisis averted, I think.

PSN not working for anyone else?

My net is working just fine for everything else, but cant sign in to psn.

Sony has this to say:

Note:

We are aware that some users are experiencing difficulty enjoying the PSN. We have confirmed the PSN is stable. If you are having trouble, we encourage you to contact your internet service provider.

Edit:

Oh shit. Is comcast going to shake down Sony now...?

Comcast: pay us the monies and we will let our market leading amount of customers connect to PSN. If not, PSN will work like shit for our customers and we will blame you until you pay up.

Sony: Well, shit....
I couldn't sign in earlier but can now. Not on Comcast.

I am replaying Infamous 2 now. For whatever reason I wasn't in love with it when it was new. Maybe it was too much different then the 1st one. I liked 2 and all but thought the first was better. Having played all 3 (getting the plat on 1 and 3) recently I am changing my opinion about 2. I am really enjoying it and feels it holds up a lot better then Infamous 1.

I am near the end of my hard playthrough and have 31 of 52 trophies and will unlock a few more before I finish the game. Not sure I will go for the plat or not now but will eventually.

Second Son could have been much better. Really light side missions both in quantity and variety. Main game is solid but short.

Yeah my girl and I are playing Diablo 3, wow you level up every 2 mins or so, it is crazy. I know it must slow down the higher levels you get, but her and I are barely using our new moves before we unlock more moves. We are only level 12 or so tho.

Also got Paragon Level 99 in Dragon's Crown with my wizard, wootwoot, now just go beat the game again with every character and that's a plat.

Also Drakengard 3 is getting pretty awesome. Classic Nier/Drakengard cast of crazy psychos and pervs. The controls are so archaic tho, like an old capcom/resident evil game. Constant slowdown and grapical glitches too.

I'm gonna start up Watch Dogs soon too, any tips on that game? Im not gonna plat, just a playthrough I think.

and before this flash sale is over, should I get DW7 empires or skip it... ?

 
Why can't these hackers do something productive and make a shit ton of money by creating something instead of trying to destroy or irritate others?

oh that's right. they are the scum of the earth.

Haha, nice. Beats Tyler's little bitty nest and crappy pic. Looks like the same kind of bees though. I dont think they'll hatch without food, unless they're already close, so yeah....

well i guess I can't buy dw7 empires just yet. and I fucking have Charter and my internet was down most of yesterday too. Blargy Blargy!
Man, if thats what it was then the Charter people I talked to are total retards. They sent someone by (who they had to call in, because weekend) to replace the cable modem (for free, because they are retarded and didnt know the problem). But it worked just fine afterwards, so I didnt really think much of it.

 
PSN being down really sucks.  I would be very happy if Tyler was streaming right now to keep my mind off of this stupid grind to max out all the suits in Spider-Man 2.  There are 13 of the damn things.  I think I am down to 3 left, but it is driving me insane.

Charter was down across the US for lots of folks yesterday. I kept resetting all my stuff and no go for like 5 hours so we read books and cleaned up ;)

Haha, now I really have to question these Charter people, they didnt say any of that. I called around 6, got a callback around 7, guy at the house supposedly around 8. He just left it, since I was already gone (Mom bday, took her to eat....didn't forget :)) So probably around midnight or a little after I hooked it up, and it worked fine. Must have been impeccable timing on my part lol.

 
Man and I traded all my games in a week or so ago. Missed out on a few dollars. Oh well.

May trade in shadow fall, 16 bucks not bad for that.

 
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is pretty awesome. Can't believe I had it for almost a year and a half without playing it.
I love that game and am looking forward to the sequel. These newer TR games are great. I got all the achievements for both on 360 but want to do them again on PS3 since they were free on PS+. If anyone wants to co-op, I'm down.

Has anyone gotten the Platinum on Hotline Miami? It seems like the hardest thing would be getting A+ on every level. I'm going to try for that and get the easy plat for TWD S1 after I finish up with Tearaway in these next couple days. Maybe tonight.

From what I've played of PixelJunk Monsters and Shooter I've enjoyed both games. Not sure if they get too hard or what, but I also don't see why there's so much hate. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I think some wanglord named jay managed to eke it out. too bad he got banned, never to be seen again. I'm sure he'd have some great insights.

I haven't been able to figure that game out myself, it feels way too hectic to me.
