So it's the full game + DLC AND you get Quantum Conundrum bundled with it? Pretty odd pairing, but that seems like a really good deal.
 
[quote name='WNYX585AM']That's a pretty impressive price.

Quantum Conundrum included? Is this the first person puzzle game that has nothing to do with Tomb Raider or is this something different?[/QUOTE]
It's also a Square Enix game, but that's all that ties them together. This is at least a chance for PS+ people to outright purchase QC.
 
[quote name='ECisMe']Browser-based store can now queue up downloads!! Sorry if I'm late on this, but it's definitely good news to me :)[/QUOTE]

I'm glad they finally added this, but it definitely has room for improvement. I'm guessing if you buy something on there right now, you could add it to your download queue easy peasy. But if you want to add something you bought awhile ago, you actually have to go find it in the awful, awful download list. And that is incredibly buggy in its current state (I tried to navigate too quickly and got stuck on an infinite hour glass, had to close the tab). I'm no programmer, but it doesn't seem like it should be hard to add something to your download queue from the actual product page a la Xbox.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']https://store.sonyentertainmentnetw...aider-psn-flash-sale-50-off-this-weekend-only

Tomb Raider Flash Sale for $29.99 until Monday:

Posted this in its own thread for the special sale.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for posting, but crap- I was waiting on the disc version of TR to drop to sub-$20, but this sale is very tempting, especially with a $20 PSN gift card I just got for my birthday this week, effectively making this digital bundle $10 for me...

Someone talk me out of this! I can wait a bit longer to get this on disc, and it'll be near the $20 price point sometime soon... right? :whistle2:s

Ehh, depends on if you want the disc version because you want to trade it in later, or because you want to save $10. I bought it at release and freaking loved it (I wish Uncharted played this well). As such, I can't see myself trading it in later, so digital is just as good as physical in my eyes. At the same time, Square games have been going on sale like crazy not too long after release...

Well, there you go. My comment has not helped you in anyway.

Tomb Raider is 8831MB so get the disc.
 
[quote name='rpg']Tomb Raider is 8831MB so get the disc.[/QUOTE]

Less than 10GB doesn't concern me in terms of data/space. This is really tempting as I have $20 in credit just sitting on my account...

Don't get it. Posted this in the other thread, but I don't think paying $30 for something digital is a very good idea when there is also retail copies available. I don't like to pay more than $10 for digital content, I would never even consider spending $30 on a single digital game.
 
I'm very tempted to pick up Tomb Raider, but I think I'm gonna hold out to see the sales for next week first. They probably won't announce them until after the Flash Sale is dead to be tricksy like that.
 
Question: The DLC for RE6 & RE:ORC, which are bundles? which ones are included in those bundles?

I want to buy DLC (I got 2 ps3 and I love the fact Sony allows the download in 2 consoles) and I'm meaning to get DLC for these games, but I don't want to buy anything twice.

So, if anyone knows more about this: which DLCs should I get in order to get all Coop maps, costumes, weapons, etc. ignoring repeats in bundles and ignoring any unnecessary competitive arenas, etc?
 
Not sure if its been mention, but another new Vita game is coming.

blog.us.playstation.com/2013/04/26/quell-memento-sliding-to-ps-vita-soon/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+PSBlog+%28PlayStation.Blog%29

Looks kinda interesting, but not really anything incredible. At least they are making good on their promise of more vita games:)
 
Quell isn't a bad game. I played Quell and Quell Reflect on the HP Tocuhpad. This version seems to have a different visual style and so maybe different play mechanics as well.

Some of the puzzles were frustrating. Slide through a transport hoop, light up all the icons, run over a square that causes a block to appear behind you, don't hit the spikes head on.

I'd pay $5 or less for something like this on Vita, especially considering the two I have are 99 cents each for Android.
 
[quote name='alwayscheaper']What in the name of PSN is God mode? Felt like Quake or something.[/QUOTE]

God Mode is a quirky hoard mode game, where you endlessly fight demons till you obtain godhood (level 24). There is only 1 mode, the story is I think a 1 sentence explanation of the premise. Something like "You were of a bloodline banished from olympus fighting to reclaim your status as a god." There are only 5 maps to play on and the community is pretty small. Most of the games value (okay pretty much ALL of it) comes from the tests, which are dynamic elements that change the way the game is played. It's a fun game, maybe not worth $10 dollars, but certainly enjoyable in short bursts.

I am still looking for people to play with if you get it, so thats at least 1 "friend" with it.
 
Has anyone gotten their Vita registration credit?

I feel like it's been well over that 4-6 weeks and I've still not received it via email or psn.
 
[quote name='FlyingMonkey9']Rumor is that SLEEPING DOGS coming to ps+ next month[/QUOTE]

Says who? I thought we were getting Arkham City and Limbo.
 
[quote name='FerDK']Says who? I thought we were getting Arkham City and Limbo.[/QUOTE]

That was just speculation off of an image, which might have came from EU (similar to how they showed Biohazard 5 for free).
 
finally got around to finishing dragon fantasy book this morning. minecraft chapter was definitely my favorite. only thing i didn't like about it was, you couldn't level the monsters you capped. hopefully the next game will be a little more balanced, and maybe a little longer.

also, anyone else notice this in the minecraft chapter? you could craft a full diamond set of equipment, equip it to all the monsters in your party, and still equip it woodsy without crafting more sets.
 
[quote name='Slade']Has anyone gotten their Vita registration credit?

Yep, they came about 2 weeks ago. Received a PSN message and a regular email.
 
[quote name='admiralvic']That was just speculation off of an image, which might have came from EU (similar to how they showed Biohazard 5 for free).[/QUOTE]

I remember this, Morgan came out and said it was for other region only...2 weeks later (or so) we got RE5 Gold for free too.

Ah well, just a few days 'til we find out for sure anyhow.
 
[quote name='johnnypark']Yep, they came about 2 weeks ago. Received a PSN message and a regular email.[/QUOTE]

Hum... who would I contact about not getting mine yet you think?

Probably will be May 7th since they haven't announced what is coming for the month until the first PS+ update of the month.
 
Never got that vita registration referral credit but im not stressing. hopefully it arrives but if not c'est la vie or whatever.

also i just platted zero escape virtue's last reward. holy cow. mind blown.
it's really a 1 playthrough game, but id be down for it being ps+ freebie just so more people can experience it. i played 999 already, but wow, mind blown. i love a game with a mind twisting plot.

wow I hope that's not an error, excited!:bouncy:
 
So does that mean next month should be Paxs Truffle Trouble, Germinator, Sleeping Dogs and Pinball Arcade (I don't recall this being offered anyway)? If so, not sure how I feel...
 
On that picture^ What is the game below The Cave? And the game below Wipeout? Can't quite read the font lol. Thanks in advance.
 
[quote name='rbanez']On that picture^ What is the game below The Cave? And the game below Wipeout? Can't quite read the font lol. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE]
I believe it's Labyrinth Legends and Zombie Tycoon II
 
Paxs Truffle Trouble looks like a coolish platformer, Germinator I have heard nothing of but Ill try it. sleeping dogs was great, could platinum it now! Would be a decent month
 
wow, really good selection of games to try out for next month if it's true. I already have Pinball arcade but more pinball for people to try out is good.
 
[quote name='Slade']Has anyone gotten their Vita registration credit?

Keep in mind that you were only entitled to this credit if you bought a Vita within the certain time frame for the promotion.
 
Hmm....never heard of Pax's Truffle Trouble. I'd be happy to get that and Germinator though. Already got Pinball Arcade and already beat Sleeping Dogs, though it is a very good game.
 
Sleeping Dogs will be the first full game offered from plus that I didnt have already and wanted. Looking forward to that one.
 
is it worth playing resident evil 1 if i already passed the remake on the gamecube? and does the map show you what room has items and which dont?
