Good brand, good price, good size. I've used this to upgrade my launch model PS3 from 60gb to 1tb; I can vouch for it working just fine.

Hotline Miami is in the US PS+ so there is a chance it might be in the November EU update. I remember Fred or Jawad from the EU Blog saying one of Hotline Miami, Guacamelee and another game I can't recall would be coming soon.

Said it was between them 2 and the PSP Resistance game. Reading through some comments one person noticed that Jawad already said no to Resistance, and that Hotline Miami isn't in all the countries, so it was likely to be Guacamelee.

Ah damn. I've bought and platinumed Guacamelee and while I've finished HLM on PC I wouldn't have minded playing it on Vita. I'll keep my fingers crossed sure!

I haven't finished many games lately but I got to the end of AC3 recently and enjoyed it way more than I thought I would after quitting revelations about a third of the way.

I played Spec: Ops start to finish over the last few days and that was pretty good too.

Now I've started Dragons dogma and I'm liking it, reminds me a bit of Demons souls just not as bloody hard and confusing.

All freeeeeee cheers Sony.

Hotline Miami would be nice for November, I would love if we got Tomb Raider, we can always hope.

Good to hear. I've just started AC Revelations having just finished AC Brotherhood and AC2 before that. I loved ACB and AC2 but I'm not loving ACR. Too many bloody cut scenes.
I've read some mixed reports on AC3 but downloaded it yesterday and think I'll just fast forward to that instead.

eddhorse

Yep thanks for that, gonna start AC3 after finishing Spec Ops and just platinumed Jak and Daxter !

EGriff

AC3 is a bit of a slog for the first few hours, there's a prologue and intro, but once you get to the main game it's very good. I played all the ship missions too which I thought I was going to hate.

I'd like if we got Tomb Raider in the next few months too, it's a game I'm not likely to buy but I still want a go of, perfect for PS+.

Finished Specs Ops there the other night. Really enjoyable and difficult enough in parts on Suicide difficulty. You can't just run and gun. YOu have to be smart, use cover and your team mates when you can. I'm thinking of playing it on Fubar but I've heard it is frustratingly difficult. Anyone here beat it on Fubar?

Yeah great game alright, character development and story were super.
Just finished it, no time for replaying, backlog too big and you are fubar if you try that.

Yeah i did and got the platinum! It certainly is very difficult and frustrating. Absolutely NO Run and gunning can be done. Constant cover is what you need and you essentially battle for checkpoint to checkpoint.

Your squad are the worst though. I found you can't really rely on them because if you order them to kill some enemy they pull out of cover, get shot and need to be revived. Which is very very hard to do on FUBAR.

Very tough on the hardest difficulty but if you survived Suicide mission and are up for a challenge the go for it! :cool:

+1 :P

Just take your time and pick your moments to move.
Be very selective about giving orders to your squad.

There's a whole heap of files to download for this, around 30GB if I remember correctly. I think most of it is made up of cinematic cutscenes in HD, It took me about 5 hours to download on 50 meg BroadBand, left it running over night. Game is well worth it though.

Assassins creed with guns. My housemates were watching me try to take an outpost undetected and found it hilarious when in my panic to stop an enemy walking towards me I tried to throw a stone but hit him in the face so he yelled "oh ****"
