Now, try download the making of video, if you have the season pass. Hint : You won't find it on the PSN store. You have to do it in game, with no background download allowed

It's a real pain in the hole tbh. What I have been doing is setting the PS3 to shut automatically to turn off after download but I don't like leaving it on overnight if I can't do that.

The only thing I want from the PS3 at this stage is individual backups rather than the full drive image that it has now, would make plus so much easier.

From the FAQ

When are new games released for IGC?

Most games are refreshed every month. Old games fall off and new games are added. In it's first year Little Big Planet 2, Infamous 2 and Motorstorm Apocalypse were available for the full 12 months. they are due to be replaced in June 2013.

Uncharted is with us until June 2014.

EDIT : URL Fixed. Didn't paste properly from the tablet.
EDIT 2 : I guess those outside USA aren't worthy of this video at the moment.

Did ye hear about Insane Mode in Outlast? :eek:

I'm not even going to attempt it!

Insane mode is the hardest difficulty. It's Nightmare difficulty with no checkpoint or saves. This will require you to finish the game without dying and you have to do it in a single sitting. You can pause the game so if you need a break for any length of time, you can do that. But if you die at any point in the game, you will respawn right back at your car in the beginning of the game. If you die from a failed jump, you will have to start over.

Since Insane mode uses Nightmare difficulty, you should practice all the difficult sections of the game on Nightmare before starting your insane run. Nightmare/Insane differs from Normal in the following ways:

The maximum number of extra batteries you can carry is 2.
There are fewer batteries that can be picked up.
The Variants move faster and react to noises quicker. They are much smarter.
Strong Variants (

Chris Walker, Dr. Trager, Walrider

) will one hit kill you. Weaker Variants will kill you in 2 hits, with the exception of a couple who will one shot you.

I'm glad I just completed it.. I don't think I'd be able to survive on 2 batteries :P

um7y1h83ge06nx

I'm just about to start

the undergound lab

so I think I'm close to the end.

Just swapped fifa 14 for last of us, good or bad deal?

tok9

Well considering one is an iteration of a game that has minor tweaks and the other is arguably one of the best games of the last generation... I think you've made the right choice.

gimli2112

Agreed - good deal

Most will probably tell you it's a good deal. But it depends really on what you are in to. If you like stealth type games then you won't regret it. Personally I didn't like it. I traded TLOU for FIFA and don't regret it for a second.

I would sell my first born child for The Last of Us.

I'd trade last of us PS3 for Fifa 14 PS4

It is dead easy. It's only the fear factor that cripples you in the game, Get over that and its a walk over. Sure, I was scared on my first play-through but it's ridiculously easy once you get used to it. By the end of the week, I was doing speed run Livestream's on Insane on Twitch.

Fair play. I do find that in the hour or so I played last night I was far more composed, the fright factor was dissipating. Earlier I would sometimes get all muddled up about the level layout and run into a dead end when chased by an enemy.

Still, the one death and you're back to the start would be frustrating. I guess plenty of breaks would help so you wouldn't get tired and sloppy.

You have Dark Souls to finish before the 2nd one comes out, dont be getting distracted :pac:

I played Outlast earlier, yeah massive nopes for most of it, the game itself is pretty easy as the areas are just go here, turn that, open the door, then run. It's the peeking around corners, not knowing where you're going and then hiding from anything looking for you that extends it, ran out of batteries at one point in a sewer, that was fun
