New PSN Pass Program introduced with Resistance 3, read more on ign.
Basically the same thing EA had done with their games, nothing to worry about. Good thing is, you can sell your unused key if you don't use the online features. |

2. The games actual package doesn't have that marker so it is most likely a fake picture |

lol not really surprised, sad that their all (been trending for some time now from several companies though EA is the most blatent, I blame DLC success)
eitherway joining in to kill the used/rental game market under the guise of special DLC is quite digusting, guess that's another game i'll never get.

Question for folks:
I have a 60 gig PS3. When I play regular DVDs on it (fairly frequently; probably 4-5 times a week), the fan tends to get pretty loud after 30+ minutes of playtime. I've noticed it starting to do that (sometimes) with PS3 games, too, after about 30+ minutes of playtime. I actually haven't really noticed it with BluRay DVDs, though. Either way, it's very noticeable. Does anyone know if this is normal or not? I preordered NCAA '12 and when I picked it up, I inquired about trade-in value for the 60 gig and found out that until the end of July I can get $130 on trade-in for the 60 gig. That's half the cost of a refurbished 80 gig system (still has backwards compatibility). So, I guess that's another question I have. 1. Does anyone know if what I described is normal? 2. Has anyone purchased a refurbished system? Are they good quality/worth it? If I can get half the cost of a larger-capacity system and it's fairly decent quality, I may spring for it.

Sounds about normal. I used to play on my 60GB for close to four years(Still have it and works fine). The fans were getting loud all the time for about two years and it worked fine.
I don't know if refurbished systems are any good. I just went ahead and brought a new 120GB system. I also recommend buying a new system. If you have a PS2 then you don't need backwards compatibility. I remember playing some PS2 fighting games on my 60GB and there was input delay on my HDTV. I now simply play PS2 games on my standard tv in another room.

Oooookay. lol Thanks for the info. I'll avoid a refurb, then.
Still may get a new one, then. I don't have my PS2 up at school, and admittedly do not have any PS2 games up here, either. But ya never know when the desire to play a PS2 game may strike me. lol I'm going to sit on this for about a week or two more and then decide whether or not to trade in my 60 gig for a new 120.

It is basically a virtual concert on home. Kind of like the idea, virtual bands concerts on virtual stage. What is next K-on? Beck? |

It's nut to think that in the time that Sony have sold 51.8 million PS3s the PS2 has sold 51.4 million units as well.
Hardware Ap-Jn 2011 PS3 1.8 m PSP 1.8 m 360 1.7 m Wii 1.56 m DS 1.44 m PS2 1.4 m 3DS 0.71 m PS2, the real king, DS family is still 7 million behind and it has been replaced. |

How the PS3 became the most expensive console to date
It was just a matter of time until sony decide to do this, use vita as PS3 controller. source eurogamers
After ditching the six-axis, introduction DS3 and PS move, sony unveils their latest controller for their cell power home console, PS vita. Hmm, kind of wanted to trade in my ps3 for a vita. Probably still going to do that. |

Oh how much of a happy pup this makes me! The lack of good PSone titles on PSStore is shocking tbh. As much as I am a fan of Disney stuff I'm not really a fan of their games.

Dear me, I know I should be used after all these years, but it is still frigging annoying to have the exact same price tag but in euro on our side... That's almost 80€ extra (a little more than $100)

CECH-ZED1 3D display coming to europe, AWESOME! It is a bit pricey $499/€499, but it is a VA panel, can display 3D and 2 different views simultaneously. I hope they will give support to PC sector as well, because this will my next monitor to replace my trinitron screen.
Does it means we get 20 free classic games ^^, yeah someone has to make that joke... Last edited by Sides; 2011-08-16 at 14:45. |
