Not far at all. Did that escort quest to big city. Turned around and went all the way back to check on stuff I missed on.

The idea of having "pawns" really cool. I made my own too, a nice redhead warrior. so far looks like your pawns are actually not complete headless chickens too. Sow a few boardsies pawns.

Yeah, Dragon's Dogma has eaten a load of my time since it popped up on PS Plus.

AS for the pawn's AI, its determined by their Inclination (can view it on their Status screen). I won't hire a pawn now without double checking their Inclination -
MAge with Medicant - good.
Mage without Medicant - Bad.

If you want to change your pawns Inclination you can buy potions in the main Encampment

Where the Hydra attacked early on

- they cost Rift Crystals rather than gold.

Good summary here:

Oh, and if anyone wants to add me for my pawn, PSN name is Niska (just add boards.ie or similar to the request as I have a habit of deleting random requests).

Must stay away from Dragons Dogma, must resist....

Don't have enough HD space on my PS3 (only 40GB). How do I add PS Plus games to my system without downloading them so I don't lose the games when Nov kicks in

You can just "buy" them on the online store. They'll be added to your download list then but won't automatically download unless you have it set to do so.

Here's a link. Just sign in there.

Sorted cheers!! One last question:

I'm currently downloading Far Cry 3. I tried to add Dragon's Dogma to the d/l list as well but it says my system doesn't have enough space. I just checked and I have 21GB free.

Normally you needed twice the size of the game for download and installation, although Varik mentioned above that it seemed to not be the case any more. Maybe it still is though.

Just purchase and then cancel the download, that will be enough then to get it later,

Just starting Dragons Dogma now, played it a little on the xbox but hoping to properly get into it on PS3. Ill try add some boardsies for pawns

CastorTroy

And they're up!

At least Remember Me, Metal Gear and Oddworld are. Can't see the purchase icon for Motorstorm

Remember Me

Metal Gear Rising

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath

It feels like these are getting released earlier every month!

Still haven't played Dragon's Dogma but I'll definitely start playing MGS Rising as soon as I can.

CastorTroy

Wonder what will happen next month. Will we get the update on the 27th with the PS4 games being added on the 29th, or will they just add the PS4 games on the Wednesday so they're there for the midnight launch on Thursday night?

Varik

Be careful plus games may jump back up in price before you purchase so keep an eye on the total cost.

lertsnim

I spotted that. Almost payed €90

krudler

Do the previous month games end as soon as the new ones go up or do they keep them active for a few days?

What is Destiny of Spirits beta on the vita about. Never heard of it myself

Varik

The store seems to be updated properly now, the new plus games are listed on the IGC and remained free as checking out.

Also Dark souls 2 beta.

Perfect, 2 more games I would not have bought myself, but really wanted to try out.

What are we losing, what leaves this month?

Its an online turn-based strategy game. 3 on 3 battles. Not really a lot of info on it. It was Sony's "big surprise" at E3 if I remember correctly. Looks to have elements of a TCG to it.

I'll definitely be giving it a go as it looks like my kind of thing. Just hope it isn't overly monetized. More Poxnora than Ecolibrium lets hope.

I completely missed that Hotline Miami is only 3.99 right now or 2.99 for PS+

Jaysus, Metal Gear Rising is roughly 18GB. I'll have to wait until November and my usage to reset for that one.

Is that on metal gear. If so my download was crawling earlier then paused it to Remember Me DL 1st. Just unpaused it and now MGS is back up to full speed. Not very scientific but maybe try the above?

K.O.Kiki

Huh, Remember Me is a lot better than I was expecting it to be.

Not AAA material, but definitely not atrocious.

Metal Gear Rising was only released in Feb of this year, fantastic that we're getting it on PS+ so soon. PS+ is freakin excellent
