Anywhere cheap to buy PlayStation plus at the moment?

Yeah, a few games into DAS and it's very meh. There's a good game there, but right now it's meh. Good that you can earn the credits in game, but crap you have to pay for challenge series. Not sure how other F2P games do this, but that seems a bit scummy. Already covered in MT's but all cosmetic, and even then the cosmetics are just a paint finish and don't actually change the look of your character. No doubt that'll come down the line, but right now I don't see any reason to spend the in game credits. Plus, I got 7th last night and got nothing, 5th tonight and got 1000. Seems random or you're just out of luck below a certain position.

I'll keep at it randomly to see how it progresses. It's a lovely looking game, and the mechanics seem solid but can't get used to the jumping over cars. Can be hard to score points too. It's free though, so can't really complain. If they put the effort behind this, they could come up with a great game.

Played the first part of Control but can't see myself giving it a 2nd playthrough even though i loved it first time around. Doubt I'll ever get to the dlc unless I'm really stuck for a game.

Concrete Genie is lovely

Just started downloading Control. Is there a reason for it having 2 downloads? Have Control Ultimate Edition and Control on the queue.

Powered on the PS5 to check, went into Library, PS Plus, selected Control Ultimate Edition, clicked the 3 dots to ensure it was the PS5 version (changed to the other one and back again just to be sure), Download. Only 1 file started downloading - Ultimate.

CastorTroy · 04-02-2021 12:54am

Looks like the other one is the PS4 version because if I select that option from the 3 dots it switches to the other one in the queue

Have you installed the new system update for PS5 today? It gets rid of this stupid issue of it installing the PS4 version alongside the updated PS5 version.

CastorTroy · 04-02-2021 2:42am

Only saw it there to be installed after adding Control. So it's installed now. Will cancel the PS4 version

Can anyone help me with this please, which has probably been done to death but I can't find a definitive answer.

If I set up my PS account to Canada (living in Ireland), buy PS Plus from CDKEYS, what are the negatives? Can I play with Irish friends, do I need a VPN, can I download/purchase and play games etc. Is there any downside other than having to buy again from CDKEYS next Feb

Thanks.

Trying to download Destruction All Stars and keep getting an error stating “Something went wrong”. CE-107857-8. Anyone know what this is?

Goggle it, answer is in the first three results

I can't for the life of me fathom how Destruction All-Stars was ever considered a full price launch game.

There's definitely an excellent game hiding in there.

Yeah I think Sony must have realized that too and smartly moved it to a PsPlus game. Can only imagine the fallout they would have gotten if they launched it at full price

It must be hidden really really well.

I've played it a bit over the last few days and have enjoyed it. Obviously it's still lacking a lot and no chance I'd have paid €80 for it but there's definitely potential there for it to end up like rocket league etc.

Yeah it's a €20/€30 game at most.

puzl · 09-02-2021 12:59pm

Yeah, if even that.

I didn't have a PS5 when bugsnax was on offer. Would people recommend it?

It's similar to destruction all-stars, grand to kill a couple of hours but would I have bought it for €15~, not a hope.

My daughter adores it and has played it through 3 times, not for me though

Does have some charm, reminded me a wee bit of Ape Escape. That charm wore off for me after an hour or so though and not been back to it since, nice to try for free but glad I didn't pay for it

Any good offers for ps+ at the moment?

EoinMcLovin · 24-02-2021 1:04pm

March PsPlus should be announced at around 4.30 today.

Wonder will they keep the 2 PS4 / 1 Ps 5 format?

Or is Destruction All Stars (leaving April 6th) filling in the PS5 slot this month too?

I think they will , having the PS5 being a brand new game

I'm leaning that way , too.

Maquette is released next Tuesday (2nd) and it's profile seems similar enough to Bugsnax and Worms for day 1 PS Plus release.

Zero-Cool · 24-02-2021 5:36pm

I read a rumour it will be disco Elysium for PS5 as that's due out in march with no release date or preorder up yet and now i have set my expectations stupidly high.

CastorTroy · 24-02-2021 5:38pm

Maybe they'll announce the games on the State of Play tomorrow
