This may be hard to come by but I'm looking for someone with Resistance 2 CE DLC and Uncharted 2 Currency Multiplier DLC. I'll reward handsomely to anyone that can possibly share these.
 
Ok well I'm just gonna rent infamous from gamefly.

But I woulds till be interesed in doing a gameshare. Dont want to waste a share on just deathspank so I think I'm gonna start a group to get a couple games, if these are shareable, dont know just listing a few I want to get.

Deathspank
Joe Danger
Tales of Monkey Island
Secret of Monkey Island 1 and 2
Braid (I have it on PC, but would rather play it with a gamepad, if noone wants it not a big deal)

Not sure if these are all shareable though, been a while since I've done a gameshare.

I'd be down for Deathspank/Joe Danger/Braid for sure.
 
[quote name='Morphx2']I would do those 3 as well. How much would it be?[/QUOTE]

Same here. The cost would be $9 a person, since each game is $15 and there are 3 of them total.
 
Ok here's the skinny with PSN+. It is a subscription server side that ties in to your account. The subscription icon itself is not shareable but once your account is subscribed you get

1.certain games for free, These games are all shareable on up to 5 PS3's until the subscription expires, as long as you maintain the sub, you all keep the games.

2.good deals on other games, Since these games are purchased, albeit with a discount, you and all 5 PS3's get to keep them indefinitely.

and

3.a few service perks. One of the perks is Auto update of your recently played games. This is where things get complicated. Since they are account level services they only work on the subscribed account, and so far they only work on 1 PS3 at a time. For example. I have a main account, and I'm a member of a long term PSN group where we opened a seperate account where we buy games and share them. I activated Auto Update on that account on my PS3. It made me set that account up to auto log in when my PS3 turns on so now instead of auto logging in to my main account like I used to, now everytime I turn on my PS3 it auto logs in to the share account. Not a big deal, it auto updates all my games for me. Other snag is it only checks for games launched on that account so I had to go through all my games again and launch them under this account name so it would check them at the designated time. Kinda of a big deal. Now here's the major kicker. When my other gameshare buddies tried to activate this on their PS3's they got a message saying they couldn't, that it was already in use by another PS3. So we've began discussion on how and when to take turns. Since it is a daily check and such a hassle to set up my suggestion was we each rotate a month on this service. Who knows, no details have been hammered out but I would go into sharing PSN+ assuming that you won't get to take advantage of perks like this. I guess if your doing a one time group the Leader could keep these perks and pay a little more than the rest of the groups since he's essentially getting the hook up.

This is my experience with PSN+ so hopefully this "is PSN+ shareable?" can be squashed. the answer is, yes, PSN+ is almost completely shareable. (also the Hulu+ app I got through the PSN+ early promotion (it will eventually be available to all PSN users) worked just like any other game on my main user account)

Ok well I'd be fine with those 3 as well. If you guys wanted infamous as well I'd have no problem with that either really. Or any other games too.

Lord Darkstorn
Morphx2
KOG4Eva
xilly

I can buy them when i get home from work around 6 or so, or if someone else wants to buy that'll work too.

Awww I wanted to join you guys but Im only interested in death spank : /
 
[quote name='xilly']I've already got inFamous from a past share.. but I don't care.. whatever you guys wanna do. Just let me know.[/QUOTE]

I think we're just going to get Deathspank, Joe Danger, and Braid; as I also have inFamous from a gameshare.

TBH, I don't really care about Braid.. but if it's included, I will play it. The share, even if we get enough content to be $15 a share, is better than buying these games individually. But, I will post to tell you what I've already got. :p
 
The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition
Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck's Revenge
$20.00 / 5 = $4.00 per share

1. eth3real
2. x9248 (paid)
3. firex1 (paid)
4. GalGR (paid)
5. msriflegirl (paid)

Apologize everyone. Ran into some problems on Friday with my internet. Was moving over the weekend. This account is up and running now. Sending PMs out now.

EDIT: Completed

well what other games would you guys want to get. If puzzlequest 2 was on psn I'd want that.

I haven't been following psn releases that much so I haven't gotten anything in the last 6 months or longer. I'd be up for anything since then really.

Hell yes. I wish it was. :(

It doesn't really matter to me. Deathspank/Joe Danger are the only ones I really want, and I'll gladly throw in for Braid or anything else you guys are interested in. Getting those two makes the share worth it to me.

I feel the same way. :p

I'm actually in the share mostly for deathspank, but I'll be willing to get Joe Danger and Braid since i don't have them yet. :)

Puzzle Quest is for the PSP if i recall correctly so if you REALLY want to play it, you could play it through those means.

It's on the PSN Network too for the system, being PS3

Yeah, that's what i meant. Unfortunately you can't play PSP games on the PS3, so it's only a viable option if you have a PSP and want to buy it through that route. :cry:

Yeah it sucks..
 
I've already got full achievements for Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords and its expansion on XBLA. I've also got PQ:CotW on PSP and NDS. :oops:
 
Ok well I just got home i'll buy those deathspank/braid/joe danger, I'll pm you guys my paypal. Try to send it without fees since then I'd be paying more. Just respond and I'll pm the email/PW

if we can keep this group together in case another game comes out we all want, seems like we have similar taste so it'll probably come up. I'm up to 12 users now so I gotta just get into a permanent group soon.

"The funds could not be added to your wallet."

I dont know whats going on, someone else may need to buy.

Just did some Googling around, and there are lots of other people who are having the same problem. From what I can tell, it seems to be happening to people who are adding funds to an account after having added funds to ANOTHER account for the purposes of a gameshare. I haven't found any info on fixing it, however.

Stupid question, but did you remove the debit/credit card from your main account?

I'm not sure what advice to give you, since i've never hosted a gameshare group. :(

Maybe someone else who has experienced this problem can help.
 
I tried to add $5 via the playstation store website and it says my credit card info is invalid, please check you entries carefully, yeah I'll do that...

Maybe its a problem with visa or something. I lost my card a while ago and got a new one, I haven't even used this one yet on psn
 
Just found a forum where someone claims to have fixed the 'problem adding funds to your account' problem. Apparently it involves tweaking your address. Have a look-see: http://boardsus.playstation.com/t5/...2;jsessionid=4F3CEA938038535D8352F903E6728504

This is a quote from a user on the forum: "OK, so I called Playstation America and found out that we have to edit our addresses so that It only shows your street number and street name thats it no apt. number or house number just street number and street name. nothing on the second or third line just use the first line. Hope this helps it fixed my issue."

Here's another user: "What I did was logged into my cards online account and edited the addresses so that it was all on one line. My addy has apartment info, so I believe that as long as your info is all on the first line you are good to go. Call your company and see if they got your info in there correctly because I found some screw ups that they had in for my stuff. Once you know for yourself what your information is on your card account and it can go on that first line then it's all green lights from there. Don't know why PSN has the other two lines if they are not to be used but oh well."

So I guess it's something with the address. Maybe?

my address was already on one line, checked again. I've tried with 2 different cards one a debit card too so something is wrong.

You're adding the funds to an entirely new account, right? Does the card work on your normal account (the card's been activated, right?)

yes, I use it everyday.

well this is BS, if someone else in the group can buy that would work.

Already have four people, looking for a fifth to round out a gameshare for Record of Agarest War ($10 per person). I'll be doing the buying, just waiting for one last person. PM if interested, since I don't really check this thread (or my PMs, but I'll try).

Ugh. That sucks. I'd host, but I'm low on funds atm. Went to Florida last week and a few things haven't quite cycled through yet so I'm not sure where my accounts stand atm (spent wayyy too much lol).
 
[quote name='Lord Darkstorn']I'll host if I'm able to add funds to my account. Let me just check and see if it works...[/QUOTE]

dont add it to your main account, make a new one with a new email login and PW. I hope thats what he's doing

Something is up with their system. I even made a brand new account via the PSN website and ti still says my CC info is invalid, I tried my hardest to give them my money but they dont want it.
 
yeah I'll give them a call and see whats up.

2 people sent me paypal already, I'll keep trying to buy and if I do I'll pm asap. If I cant in a day or so I'll just paypal it back
 
Anyone interested in the following shares?

Persona 3 Portable - $8/person or Dissidia: Final Fantasy - $4/person
