If you haven't used the code yet, wait until the day before they change the games and you'll possibly get an extra month worth of games.

Runcle · **Posted:** Tue Aug 06, 2013 18:12

Also have we got a list of everyone usernames on PS3?

Oh yeah, I'm not going to activate the card until I'm actually ready. I've got another code somewhere else for a month's free trial so I'm going to see if they'll stack.

Well, it would be if people filled in their profile, at any rate.

I've just received my free 90 day PSN+ voucher from that Now TV trial which is unexpectedly quick of them. It comes in a dirty great Bluray type box which is pretty unnecessary but still: free stuff! The timing's pretty much terrible mind as I've only just started The Last of Us and I'm not picking anything else up until I'm done with that. I really, really hoping Shadow of the Colossus is still up there by the time I get round to using this as I need to sound convincing when I'm telling Satunalian it's awful just to see if I can make his head explode.

Oi! I do wonder what people might think though if, say, they're used to the games of today of the kind that hold your hands throughout. Plus, the camera was always a bit wayward.

Still, it's the greatest.

Any other PS+ subscribers want to give Payday a go? I could organise a night if so.

Trooper · **Joined:** 4th Mar, 2010 **Posts:** 22270

My PS+ sub has run out. I assume if I leave it and come back int the future, all the games I downloaded will be available again?
I didn't use it enough to pay full price for the service, but i'll keep an eye out for a £20 deal.

I'd like to try this. Is it coop against the "computer", or is it team vs team?

My main problem with PS3 multiplayer gaming is that I don't have a headset. And I'm sort of holding off buying one until I know whether it would work with the PS4 as well.

I had a quick go with AI players, I was hoping it was going to be like Ocean's Eleven but its just a dull re-skin of Left 4 Dead. I couldn't be bothered to finish the first bank heist so I don't know if it gets better.

Payday: The Heist. It's a cooperative FPS.

I'm guessing by the fact that you don't know what it is that you didn't download it last month, though.

Oh. Might not be worth bothering with then. I just thought as a few of us would've had it, it might be fun.

I'd be up for some Payday co-op.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Aug 13, 2013 10:36

So that's the Doc and I, and maybe Mr Dave. Could do with one more.

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Tue Aug 13, 2013 10:38

I even have a headset and everything.

Get one. They are reasonably cheap now.

It is very old, very noisy, and doesn't have long left. Couldn't in good conscience sell it to anyone.

A PS3 is about a seventh of your monthly wine budget.

Don't know about Curio but I certainly wouldn't be able to get through a month on only 6/7ths of my usual wine intake.

Pre-tax.

I also got a bill for 140 quid from HMRC for underpaid tax.

So, all in all, I'm roughly even on the day.

Also, I wish my monthly wine budget was 7 times the cost of a PS3!

Seems like it's still available on ps plus :shrug:

Either that or I've downloaded gigabytes of something else.

I'm ok with most times. My planning tends to be last minute anyway.

I'd also be up for a bit of payday action. Pretty much any headsets work with the ps3 right?

Yes.

It's not going to happen right away as I'm away this weekend. Shall we say next week? Is Friday any good or do people have social lives?

Friday is a possibiloty.

myp · **Posted:** Fri Aug 16, 2013 13:33

It seems it needs a patch, so make sure you download it and start it up once before Friday. It will save some time.

myp · **Posted:** Fri Aug 16, 2013 13:50

And it's over 3GB!

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32619

Friday next week is (sadly) no good for me. Hopefully the game is good enough to encourage a second session I can manage to attend!

That's the spirit Curio!

It is a massive download isn't it? Just to compare, Dead Rising 2 is free on the Xbox today and that comes in at a little over 6gb.

myp · **Posted:** Fri Aug 16, 2013 17:02

I'm pretty sure we all frowned on it in 2008. In 2013 most people on this forum can download 3GB in about 10-15 mins.

The most annoying this is it's all the DLC maps, which you have to buy separately. So if you don't, you've had to download 3GB unnecessarily.
