PSN Off-Topic - Happy Thanksgiving Chumps and Chumpettes!

[GamingGator]

is blackgate really that bad that 4.20 is still too much?

also what stoner at sony said lets price it at 4.20

The map is useless and there is a lot of backtracking. With that said, it is worth a playthrough at that price if you are a Batman fan.

If you care about trophies, the 3 playthroughs needed with all the backtracking added in makes it a grind to complete.

Aw shit, bros.

- I sold Borderlands 2 this morning, and I'm getting about $6 after fees. Just sold Rayman Legends, getting about $14 after fees.
- Before I get those funds, I have $45 sitting in my Amazon seller account waiting to be transferred to my bank.
- On my way to trade an estimated $46 worth of old, crap games to Gamestop (cases/manuals included because I'm not a dickhead) and I'll use the $5 off coupon to get a $50 Amazon card.
- I also realized I was sitting on a ton of old LE strategy guides that are just collecting dust, so I looked them up on Amazon and they all trade in pretty nicely. I'm only doing 2 right now and a couple random games that have better values there than Gamestop and getting $75 there.
- I have $75 in Visa gift cards.
- I have $12 in Amazon credit.
- I have a $50 Amazon card that I've yet to use.

PS4 fund is up to $321, and I didn't even get rid of any games I haven't played yet. Bam!

Shoot, quit taking little bites out of the cost, buck up and pay for it in one big bite!

Aw shit, homies. Mo' Sound Shapes DLC.

 

[Thermopyle]

that's why you buy digital either for something you know for sure you're going to like, or it's a price point that you don't care about taking a "loss". i like having a mix of both. digital is easy to pickup and play whenever, and physical is there not just for show, but could wind up funding something in the future. i've made almost a grand in the last 2 weeks from trades. spending about $30 for a few yard sale flips, and the rest coming from games on my shelf. sure, some of those games were only $2-3 tiv at gamestop, but with the walmart 50% and having a smaller game store around, i was still able to make good on those as well.

Walmart 50%? What's this a reference to?

 

[GamingGator]

Unfortunately, no Infamous Second Son in the mail today.  I guess that means I'll get to play Festival of Blood before it after all.

Really? Where are you seeing that mentioned? I did notice all the PS4 versions updated again, so I was wondering if there was more DLC incoming.

Trials Fusion dlc this thursday!

If that next month thing holds it will have to land next week. You would think with Sound Shapes on sale again this week that they would have released the DLC this week too.

Maybe there will finally be a DLC sale next week so Vag wont go broke buying it

Saw a patch on Ps4 then checked the trophies. My vita version's percentage dropped.

Those combo art and sound pack ones are the ones that are usually $2 instead of $1 aren't they?

Amazing News Everyone!

According to the internet, PS+ has been redeemed by this sale.  PS+ is no longer doomed!  Thank God, I was scared there for a minute, but thank goodness that's all over with.  I'm sure people won't be so quick to say PS+ is doomed now.

Hey, IGN revealed on the beyond podcast that 8 trophies on the Last of Us Remastered will be reworked to make them easier... no news on which ones

I'd imagine the 8 multiplayer trophies for completing a match without dying after getting at least 3 downs or executions on a particular map.

And my $5 off coupon worked on the Amazon card at Gamestop, if anyone wanted to use there's for that. The guy told me it wouldn't and I just nicely said "Could you just try it and if it doesn't, no big deal?" He said sure, and it worked.

Yeah right, I actually said "Listen, dickhead, put my ing coupon in or I'll get back in my car and drive it through your store window."

And in terrible journalism, here's an IGN article

We can go so many places from here.

 

[Not Eric]

What thefts? They have their credit card. They can just charge their card right?

I'm guessing either the people stealing the games are using prepaid cards, stolen cards, or Redbox just doesn't bother to try to nail the thieves.

Take a guess where a lot of the disc only copies of day old games are coming from that you see listed on Craigslist.

[Yanksfan]

guys, I'm afraid that the first infamous is very mediocre. I like it just fine, but I hope the second one is a little more engaging. the stunts are a nuisance, but I'm glad that I got all but three done before I left neon.

I know this is old news by this point (all the way back from this morning), but I never felt the Infamous games have quite taken that next step. They are fun games that play well enough, have good concepts, decent worlds and support from the devs. I would even say they are all good. Yet, I have never finished a single one. There is something about all of them that just feels like it is missing one small, yet vital ingredient that would compel me to play it more.

Did you still have a problem with Portal 2 servers?

Do it. I need more friends to run with.

My schedule is usually a problem. I mostly play in the morning.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that already. I will be leading the charge of the "PS+ is doomed" brigade if we get Flower in August.

Bioshock?

I'll be on around 45 min.

 

[GamerDude316]

Rogue Legacy worth a day 1 buy?

And in terrible journalism, here's an IGN article about WiiU interest increasing after E3:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/07/22/survey-wii-u-interest-increased-after-e3

Here's the key quote from the article:


Now take a look at the graph of the data:

So while everything in the article is technically correct, it's quite misleading in regards to the big picture. Data manipulation like this drives me crazy.

I'm curious, which part of this do you find misleading? I've looked at it several times and don't see it. You mean the bit about the PS4 interest decline? I could see that since it really is a minuscule loss in points. "Dropped below 30%" made it seem drastic when it isn't. But the picture they paint of Wii U is pretty accurate. Of course, nowhere near PS4 but still.
