I've had a Ps3 for about 6 months and am pretty familiar with how everything works. I haven't bought anything because for some reason it wont accept my credit or debit card which sucks because I really wanted Tekken 5. If anyone has it and if willing to share it let me know because I really want to try out this gamesharing and experience to see how it all works.

Also, I planned on getting the COD4 maps somehow (either using someone else in family or friend credit card) and was wondering if you could gameshare that?[/quote]

Yes u do have a CC, but it obviously does not work on the PSN, so it would not work for Gamesharing..
 
Well I could always borrows a friend or family, not a big deal. I'll find a way to come through...Plus I could always paypal someone the money if they have paypal.
 
[quote name='cartman58']I'll respond to this since I am pretty sure you are talking about me. I understand you have a life outside of here and that's fine. However, you've spent a solid amount of time online since I've PM'd you(twice). You have been responding to PMs regarding your game trading, yet haven't taken the literally 2 minutes it would take to add people and create a MOD position.

It's fine to do your own thing. It's kind of frustrating though because we are trying to get a new gamesharing group going but can't get anything done because you won't add anybody. We are basically at your mercy to add us. So seeing you doddle around on here while we are waiting is a little frustrating, and then you turn around and post like this is honestly just a little rude. So it goes though.[/quote]
I probably came off as a douche bag in that last post, but its just frustrating when trying to help people seems like its turning into an obligation. Its really difficult to do it on a ps3 - as much of a "2 minute" process it seems to be, its really not. Typing "bump" on a tradelist and waiting to respond to people when I get internet access back isn't that difficult. Like I said, It's frustrating when I browse topics on my PS3 and see a some people acting like im an asshole when I can't update the site in which I was trying to help people.

Now lets leave it at that. I hear where you are coming from, so please hear me out as well. I'm adding everyone to the site right now, so its over with.
 
It's cool man. I don't want to come off as impatient or a d-bag either. It was just frustrating seeing you around and doing things. We're all here to have fun and gameshare. So that's where we can turn the focus again. Sorry man.
 
[quote name='MillerTime2523']
Check the site, i tried adding you as an admin but i'm not sure if it worked.[/quote]

Yes sir. I am added on there. I'll fiddle around with it and figure out how to add people to groups and such.
 
Second to that, appreciate the time you put in Millertime. There isn't much going on with the PSN store right now anyways so there is no real hurry for groups. I bet we'll get some solid release dates for the PSN network when the store is update this week.
 
There are many people who are trying to get me to gameshare, but I haven't made a decision yet. If I ever decided to do it, these are the people I'd consider for a group (who can mooch off of my 21 PSN games, lol):
-aznguyen316(sp)
-Barnolde (he sometimes posts here, but he really wants to share more)
-daroga (if he wants games)
-endlessPRO
-naes

and I know there's more. Just a matter of deciding myself, if I want to do it.
 
[quote name='The Mana Knight'] who can mooch off of my 21 PSN games, lol[/quote]

Shoot, with that much of an investment I'd keep that account as personal and nothing more just in case your ps3 dies or you get another.
Then if you ever decide to gameshare just start a new account from square one with a group of people for the rest of your purchases.



And for everyone in group 3 (if you still check this) don't forget to check the outside message board and vote for the upcoming songs that will be released this Thursday. :bouncy:
 
[quote name='DarthPuma']I just got a PS3 and I'd love to join a group. 6 dollar tekken would be NOICE.[/quote]

I feel you man. If anyone has Tekken to gameshare let me know!
 
[quote name='lunasicc']I feel you man. If anyone has Tekken to gameshare let me know![/QUOTE]

I wanted to get Tekken too. If anyone else on the COD4 group wants it too, we can get it.
 
Gamesharing group is up and everyone is added. Just added atomsk so we are ready to go. Please post your list in the thread Atomsk and then we can talk about how we want to do it.
 
when you do the gamesharing , isn't it only when you log onto that account that has the game to even play it instead of your main account?
 
[quote name='endlessPRO']when you do the gamesharing , isn't it only when you log onto that account that has the game to even play it instead of your main account?[/quote]

Any other account on that ps3 can play the games downloaded on any other account.

There are exceptions tho with games such as Warhawk (any others?) which has additional DRM that excludes the game to only the account (and i think ps3) that downloaded it.

If you're interested in the PS1 group, let me know. We would only need 2 more people, and probably get the full PS1 collection pretty easily.
 
I'd be interested in the PS1 group.

Right now I have Tekken 2 and Twisted Metal 2.

I am also interested in Tekken DR. I have Startdust HD if anyone is interested to share.

I'm new to the whole thing, so just send me a pm and we'll figure it out.

Thanks, Billbofet
 
ATTENTION ALL CAG'S

I'm trying to get a group of people together willing to buy the entire PS1 collection off the PSN store. Not people who just want to buy 1 game at a time.

How much will this set me back? Approximatley $24. This does not include the future purchases that will more than likely happen.

How many PS1 games are there? Currently 21 ($24 covers 20 games. Thats where a rotation type process would come in. See below)

So if $24 for 21 PS1 games sounds good to you, welcome aboard. Future purchases will end up being about $6 per 5 games. I'm thinking there would be some kind of a rotation process, so every week a different person in the group of 5 buys a game. So if you could get together $6 every 5 weeks (assuming a new ps1 game gets released every 5 weeks, which likely won't happen), Sign up now.

I want to do the PS1 games. I have $20 stored away for PSN games right now, and since TMK won't give me an answer, I'll join your group.

My AIM is naescag.
 
[quote name='MillerTime2523']Cool. 2 more members to go, and i'll try and start this thing once the PSN comes back online.[/quote]

For the ps1 games...
 
Anyone have a spot open in just a regular group, or want to start one with me? I'm trying to save my money buy I REALLY want Tekken and a few other games.

Does this work with Warhawk?
 
I'd LOVE to take that last spot in the PS1 Group, but I live in Canada and as such can't add money to the PSN Account's wallet (because I can't change the country). So can I just give someone (hopefully the group leader) my share of the money via Paypal and they can add it to the wallet instead? I've been dying to get into a group and unfortunately this is the only way I can do it x.o (unless someone makes a Canadian one, which I don't really want to wait for right now).
 
Thanks Miller, you're the best. If I have to I'll even toss in a little extra for the added effort you guys would have to put in for me.
 
I'm still down for the cod4 maps, if they're shareable... Would we need to sign up on that forum and everything... or can we just do it on our won?

Also Do we have 5 yet, or still 4...?
 
I think its still four, I could be wrong though. In the old thread it was:

1. atomsk
2. oldboy
3. blue weltall
4. lunasicc (me)

Anyone else down?
 
lunasic, is it a DLC group? If so I'd be in, but only if you guys don't mind me paying my share by paypal to someone else in the group and having them put my share in the wallet (because I live in Canada, like I explained above, so I can't add funds to an account's wallet if it was made to be a US account).
 
Sounds good but I think atomsky is the leader of the group so if hes down with the paypal idea we're good to go. I have paypal and don't mind but with the fee paypal charges you might need to add a little more funds to make it an even $2USD.


Heres a paypal calculator for anyone who uses paypal: http://ppcalc.com/
 
Awesome, thanks for that calculator. And yeah I don't mind paying a fee, it's what I get for living in Canada :mrgreen:
 
Ok so, that would give us 5, perfect. I'd be willing to accept paypal if you want. I just hope that the maps are shareable... So what, atomsk would create a new psn account and than put in $2 and we would all put in $2 also, except one puts in $4 for freezing.
 
[quote name='Freezing Alone']Awesome, thanks for that calculator. And yeah I don't mind paying a fee, it's what I get for living in Canada :mrgreen:[/quote]

Well the Canadian Dollar is worth more than the US Dollar now....damn economy
 
Oh hey is it still better? Well either way, now I'm in a group for DLC and hopefully one for PS1 games. All I'm missing is a group that would take me in for regular PSN games and I'm good to go! Thanks guys ;)

And V4oLDbOY you've got it right. Basically each person takes their turn changing the billing info/credit card info in the account and adding in their share to the wallet. After adding the funds, that person gets rid of their billing info/credit card info so that the next person adding funds can't see it. And since I can't add funds to a US account because I live in Canada, someone would put in my share for me and I'd pay them directly via Paypal.

It would be easier to do it through paypal, with you guys sending me the 2.37, because you can't put less than $5 in the wallet. (the paypal calculator says you need to send 2.37 because of the fee they charge, to make it $2 even. Then I'd just pay for the whole thing on the account and send everyone the login info.

I pmed blue weltall and he is still down for it so it's

1. atomsk
2. oldboy
3. blue weltall
4. lunasicc
5. freezing alone

they update thursdays so 17 or 24. :(
 
Freezing, seeing as I am in the PS1 group and I lived in Montreal for about a year in a half (this was only about 4 months ago too), I could help you. I have a PayPal Debit Card that should work on the PSN.
 
I'm interested in doing this but I don't really understand this. Does all 5 people buy a game individually and then they all share it. So you only pay for one game but you get 5 am i right? My PSN is thedolphinsrule. I'd intersested in doing this for classic playstation titles like medievil, destruction derby, etc.
