Your 5 bishis will be up shortly after midnight or between 09.00 and 11.00 , the exact time fluctuates though.

Plenty of time to slip into something a little more comfortable...

PS+ games are now free on the store

So already had The Forgotten Sands, bought it in 2013.

I bought a 12 month sub from CD keys but it's not working. Says the codes been used or may not be correct.

Anyone have any dealings with this lot before?

They're saying it's working on their side when I emailed them.

I thought it might have been because my sub was only up yesterday but it's not working this morning either.

I've emailed them to say new code or money back please.

Thats why i dont trust any of those places,
Not worth the hassle IMO to save a few euro.

My fairly sure I've used them before without hassle and xboxlivecodes too but yeah a pain in the hole this time alright.

A tenner cheaper isn't much but it's something..... When it works of course.


Edit.... Small update, they refunded me the money.

Not ideal but in heir defence they were very quick with responding to emails.


Anyone else use any other sites that I can trust ?

Thanks

The PSN network was giving a lot of people connection error codes last night (I don't know if it's still down this morning) - maybe that had something to do with it?

Kimbot

arent the subs region specific?

maximoose

They are yeah, have to be same region as the account you are redeeming the code with

Yeah had the right region and never had issues doing this before so was a bit surprised tbh

well then it was the psn issues last night that was causing it.

maximoose

Or it could just be a bum code...


Having said that I'd never had issues with CDKeys and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them

Beefy78

I think the nature of that type of business is that very occasionally the code you will get won't work. It doesn't mean that the site is a scam or that you shouldn't buy from them in future.

The fact that communication was good and that they refunded you straight away actually makes me feel more comfortable in recommending them to people.

I can definitely vouch for CDKeys, very good site and easy to deal with. Looks like you just got unlucky with a bum code. Good that they sorted things out quickly.

murphyebass

Yeah in fairness I was genuinely surprised too but great service in coming back to me.

Maybe I should have just asked for a new code.

Edit...
So I looked back on my email and it turns out I've bought my last 2 years membership directly from ps store.

I bought all my previous codes for Xbox360 (I didn't own a Sony device) on various sites including cdkeys. Renewed 360 membership this year as it happens with cdkeys.

I reckon it was to do with me getting a uk code for PlayStation. I'm assuming the one I've bought from Sony each year until now is Ireland only.

I didn't realise they were region specific if I'm honest. Thought the uk one would cover me.

Anyone know what the story is with Badland? I can't download it on the vita and I can't see it on the PS3.

Varik

Really should be a switch target on Lords of the Fallen, in a boss fight now that would be far easier with it.

Journey is good assuming you didnt play it years ago like everyone else

Lords of the Fallen is a short bland mess

Didn't, think I'll dust off the PS3 and give it a whirl, cheers!

It's on PS4 as well.

I know a lot of the chat here revolves around the PS+ monthly games, but there are the free to play games on offer aswell. Just noticed a couple of days ago a new Star Trek MMO is available for download (16gb). For me as a fan of the genre it is enjoyable enough to mess around in for a little while.

There are a good few other free to play games that are worth looking into. There is (or was when I last looked) the first episodes of Game of Thrones and Res Evil Revelations, a few MMO's (DC online, some casino MMO) and more. Just wondering what other people think of this offering.

maximoose

I don't think you need a PS+ sub to play Free to Play games though

Lords of the Fallen is a load of shyte.

Agreed. Horrible game. Especially if you've played any of the Souls games.

As someone already said most F2P games on PSN dont require plus,there are some good offerings though. Personally my most played game on PS4 by a country mile is Warframe and thats also F2P,if you've ever dreamed of being a space ninja its the game for you:)

Really
How about if you havent played a Souls game?

Maybe if you haven't played the Souls games it would be okay but it tries to copy it so much but it's like a kiddie disney version just mashing the attack button. Made me want to play a Souls game instantly after it to erase if from memory.

Finding Journey very bland, can't see what all the praise for it is about?
