So, apparently I can't buy the "Tomb Raider Bundle" because of the fact that it comes with "Quantum Conundrum" , a game in which I was "given" for free with playstation plus. The expiration date on that seems to conflict with a permanent copy.

Has anyone else had a similar experience? Any fixes? The Playstation Support person seemed to not know 100%.



I got Quantum Conundrum free on Plus also, and had no problems purchasing this same bundle when it went on sale a couple months ago. I believe it added another instance of QC to my download list, but TR was purchased & downloaded just fine.
 
I hope nobody here bought the Papo & Yo bundle, as that dropped to $12.99 with the permanent price drop of the regular game.

Edit: And it looks like MLB 13 The Show Home Run Derby is no longer free. It would've been nice to see some sort of announcement saying that that was a limited time thing.

I remember the very first issue of GamePro... I think I still have it somewhere. :oldman:

Quick question... can anyone recall how often the Marvel Pinball tables have been on sale? Or if they've ever been on sale at all? Been messing around with it and wouldn't mind picking up the other DLCs.
Click to expand...
Still catching up on the thread so I don't know if anyone answered yet, but I'm pretty sure they had the captain america and Fantastic Four tables on sale for like a dollar when the game was free for PS+. The other packs haven't been on sale to my knowledge.

 
Runner2 is all sorts of awesome. Deceptively simple at first, but after a few stages it's insanely addictive. Coming from the sub-hd version on wii is like being reborn. Surprised they gave it away so quickly. Reparation for the piss, maybe.

Might pick up Katamari, too.

edit: ...GAHDdamnit. why so few posts to a page now? You can adjust post count per page in settings.

For those of you in need of a PSN Wallet refill: if you live in the Midwest with a Meijer nearby, they're doing their "Back to School Bucks" this Friday and Saturday.

Among the coupons is a $10 off $49.97, so you can snag a $50 PSN Card or $50 Amazon Kindle card for just $40.

I posted this deal back in July when they ran a similar promo. They do it a handful of times each year. Usually around holidays and major shopping events.

Sony doesn't care about the US. That's part of the reason EU gets better Plus games. Not a single drop of piss has been spilled on the entire EU PS community. No slaps given either.
Click to expand...
Well, to be fair, the US gets wayyyyy better sales. Vita sales are much more frequent( hell, in the EU sometimes there is not a single PS Vita game sale in a month!) and better. Like the one happening now. I would buy half of the games you currently have in sale at those prices.

I read about some sort of "Gold Pass" for people who bought U.S., retail copies of Ridge Racer Vita... which had more content. Can anyone confirm if the Ridge Racer Vita on sale is pretty much just the 'barebones'/limited digital download without additional stuff? Doesn't sound like it's worth getting even at PS+ price, but I do like Ridge Racer :/
Click to expand...
3 courses, 5 cars in the base game. Apparently you have to buy some of the music too. The retail copy came with the same amount of stuff though, which if you read some reviews you'll see is mentioned in almost all of them, and was a Vita launch title. The gold pass looks to add three of the six tracks and five of the nine cars.

Even setting aside the cash grab BS DLC setup I haven't really seen or read anything indicating it's much of a racer on it's own.

 
is it normal  for the memory card on the vita to jump from

GB  left to  MB   once you fall under a certain number  

used to be  GB left now its showing MB   *its  a 32gb card

said    10GB left but after downloading these last games it shows  7146 mb  instead of  7 GB left

Alright I can't take it anymore lol. Is your space bar broken? Or do you intentionally do that to your posts? It's been bothering me forever now. I mean people would take you a lot more serious if you actually constructed sentences and used correct spacing etc.

EDIT: Here try this:

Is it normal for the memory card on the vita to jump from GBs left to MB once you fall under a certain number? It used to be GBs left by now it's showing it as MB (it's a 32gb card). It did say 10gb left, but after downloading these last games it shows 7146mb instead of 7gb left now.

Isn't that better?

im playing ragnorok oddyssey right now. ugh. lol. its just a rental tho.

 also for those on the fence for silent hill vita, i would avoid it, $7.50 seems cheap but i just couldnt get any fun out of that game.

too cool bout breakquest being free tho, i got that homerun derby 100% in 90 seconds last week, lol. 3golds super quick.

not like it matters cuz when they actually do somethere where you can spend your gold i still don't come anywhere near top.

 but soul sacrifice for $17.50... i might have to grab that. i had a whole week and i forgot to get $5godmode and $2.50 rayman 3 hd.

oh well probly for the best. thanx frisky

also saints row 4, seems a bit too matrix/super powers and not enough gang for my saints. but idk.

  also it reeks of cash in when they decided to change their dominatrix dlc into a full game, like di riptide, but whatev. its just that after 100% sr3 dlc, which took like a day, it seems they are taking the aliens/super powers from that dlc and making a game from it, and i thought those were the worst parts of sr3, but idk, i guess they know what they are doing going up against gta5,etc.

also is yourgamercards.net down for good?

Hmmm...your system started listing memory by MBs instead of GBs? That doesn't sound right at all. I think your Vita may be broken, or at the very leased seriously hacked or you have a bad virus on it. If it's still under warranty I'd recommend calling Sony, otherwise I would just throw it out and buy another one.

You definitely don't want to be playing it anymore. It could be dangerous.

 
Totally unrelated to everything but I'm trying to get some tips for Ragnarok Odyssey and in both the GameFAQs and official forums, they all talk in abbreviations and code, it's fuckin annoyin, damn nerds.

I think it's clear that he's just been letting Sony do something on it every week.

gettinmoney - hit me up. i need to beat co op missions in RO. that's Ragnorok Odyssey. Im on ch4.

also are all those free soul sacrifice dlcs still available or do they charge for them now?

 
It was this thread where we were talking about Ducktales reviews, right?  Those reviewers who said the controls were unresponsive and/or floaty were 100% full of shit.

 
[quote name="tylerh1701" post="10980242" timestamp="1376434377"]
I can't imagine that difficulty of Soul Sacrifice is nearly as high as the difficulty in Spelunky.[/quote]
Ah, but while Spelunky is super difficult, it's different every time, there's so much to it, and it makes me laugh with its difficulty. I can't really explain it.

Runner 2 is fun. It's hard too. It was made a bit easier once I realized that bar I kept jumping was a checkpoint. LOL!

Anybody know if you still get the free theme by grabbing Ducktales? I have PS+ but I kind of waffled on buying it until now. It'd be a nice little bonus if they still gave it to you.

Nope that was a pre-order bonus that expired with the store update. It was a sweet theme for free, even if its's not a Dynamic one (I miss those free themes we used to get)

They probably mean by today's standards. I haven't tried it myself, but I did see some of @frisky's stream and know exactly what they're getting at. For instance, during a section where he was trying to move Scrooge between a set of ropes, he couldn't simply jump in an arc to do it. The degree of motion seems restricted to an old NES d-pad, lol. Perhaps they shouldn't have characterized it as "unresponsive", but it seems fair to point out.

That said, man...soo many feels while watching that. That music! I had completely forgotten about some of those characters. Mother fuck-ing Lanchpad!!!

Lol, yeah, I kept doing the same. You get extra points for avoiding them, though.

Damn. Ah well. From what I saw with the one gameplay trailer I'll still probably buy it. I just wish the version coming out in stores next week was more than just a case with a download voucher in it. Although that one is supposed to include a metal pin as a bonus item. But is it really worth the extra $5 plus tax for just a pin and what will be an empty case with artwork once you use the voucher?

 
LOL, I thought "damn, 1.5 MBs, this Ducktales game is tiny," I've never pre-ordered a game on PSN before, I didn't realize you had to go to the store page again and checkout for free in order to add it to your download list, what I was downloading was the theme.

 
Bought Sumioni and Guilty Gear. I want Ridge Racer, although I'm thinking I might find the cart for cheap at some point. I wish Atelier was cheaper. The Atlus PSP RPG sale spoiled me, I guess.
