The Old Sony Megathread

[Summers]

Thanks to Colly I've "purchased" all the stuff. Including LBP2 and Infamous 2. Wasn't massively fussed on them.. but worth it, yanno.

[King Ellis]

Got my ass kicked on Tekken, including one guy who spent the entire session spamming one move.

Though bursting with content, the digital version of “Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception” will also take a hefty toll on your PS3 HDD. Those interested in downloading the full “Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception Game of the Year Edition” package will need 87GB of free HDD space -- the download itself will only be 43.5GB.

WTF

Looks like the 2D Movie pack is missing in the store. So no gameplay tonight.

Wowsers. How big is a bluray?

25-50 GB, depending on it being a single-layer or dual-layer disc. Technically you can go as far as 128 GB, though I don't think the PS3 can do BD-XL.

[Herr Matzat]

I think it´s because of the 10 languages, and i think you don´t have to download all of them. (even if i have not found any of them)

From what i understand you need the free2play multiplayer (about 4gb), the gamefile i just got (about 12gb) and the 2D Movie pack (which i can´t find) to play.

[LL!]

I'm glad I got PS+ before it was cool.

What the hell. :| 43gb download is insane.

XCOM is taking forever as it is.

[Herr Matzat]

xCom is nice to have, but it feels much more at home on the Computer using a mouse. Some serious frame rate drops here and there join the dilemma.

I´ll download the rest of LBP Carting tomorrow. Thats a game i look forward to. F1 racers just put me of so much because i dident give anything about the racers.

[Summers]

I borrowed XCOM on the PS3 from Lovefilm ages ago, and got a fair way into it.. so I'm thrilled to have it again.

If you find space a concern, just "purchase" the game but don't download. Once you do its yours as long as your a member.

Discounted games are yours forever of course.

Just learned plus isn't needed for all multiplayer. Free to play games like DC universe will be exactly that.

[Summers]

Space isn't a concern, really. Just time.

Sounds like certain games that don't feature multiplayer but do featured challenges and scoreboards and so on will be able to do that stuff without PS+, too. Not that I ever pay attention to any of that, but that's a nice feature if it's true. I assume you can still get patches and so on without PS+.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Yes. But plus downloads patches in background while you sleep and syncs trophies and cloud too.

So patches without may mean a wait.

Still if they keep up offers like this there's no reason not to get plus. like summers said, more about lack of time to play it all.

[Summers]

I got + today. I already have like 4-5 games I want to play. Madness. Do they add shit every month? Because I can see it going the same way as my steam library. 90% unplayed.

[thatshortguy]

Yeah, generally you get at least one free game per month.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Something new every week summers. Tuesdays.

[King Ellis]

Well, Wednesday for us.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Damn future peoples.

Why is the only Uncharted download I see much less than 40gig?
