Do you mean you have Irish and American PSN accounts and you want to sign up for PS+?
Well we have more free games than America, if that's an incentive for you

Oops yeah that is what I meant. I am wondering which one would be better to sign up to.

PS Plus for Vita details.

CastorTroy

Pretty good bunch of games for Vita. Who knew it had that many?

I keed I keed.

ShaneU

Already own 3 of those 4

US gets Uncharted, Gravity Rush, Jet Set Radio, Wipeout 2048, Mutant Blob Attacks and Final Fantasy Tactics.

Much better offering than I was expecting to be honest

Is borderlands gone from PS plus? Just on the first day of my trial and that was one of my bigger reasons for getting it as I wanted to try It out. Downloading little big planet 2 now so we'll see how that goes, will have to leave it overnight, pause the download and then start it up again when I am home because I know I would get it all done tonight, wish I had a better connection :mad:

Try just doing a general search for borderlands. Comes up as free for me still. Great game.

Kinda piss about them getting more, at least with the PS3 we have 10 compared to 12 but the 10 games change out faster.

HMV still have the €10.99 90 day subs in stock in Henry street in Dublin if anyone wants to give this a go at a knock down price.

AFAIK it's gone since last Wednesday (the 7th of November).

Probably still coming up as free for you because you "purchased" it when it was free.

Ah right. Makes sense, couldn't be free forever.

Going to say this in both the Vita thread and here, just to make sure.

If you're a Plus user then even if you don't have a vita you can still add/buy content from the PS3 store for the Vita, when plus adds games or any other content for the vita starting on 19th of November and each following month ADD IT.

Even if you don't have a vita yet those games will still be there if/when you do.

Just topped out my PS+ and went to download Resi 5 but it keeps telling me an error has occurred. Anyone else had this problem?

Good idea Dread, Never owned a PSP but can see myself getting a vita at some stage. PS Vita deal on top of PS+ for the year really shows the quality PSN gives over €box!:)

Quick question.

My Plus ran out last month but living in Australia at the moment with a Vita and looking to top it up but can't seem to use an overseas credit card and the new PayPal option checks your billing address too

Any easier option than getting a mate to buy a PSN card and sending me the code?

Otacon

The PS Vita's new firmware [2.00] is available now. This is the one that introduces all of the PS+ features, as well as adding an e-mail client and better browser.

Buy your PSN cards on eBay and the seller will email you the codes. My PSN account is British and that's what I do.

PS+ subscribers can get a years pass to Music Unlimited for €11.99. Non-Ps+ apparently now get it half price which I think is €60. Still not sure if its worth it as I wasn't that impressed with it as a service anyway & Spotify is now here on everything from your internet enabled PC to your internet enabled toaster.

At the rate PS+ is going, i think Xbox will have to do something about it.

Time to start downloading Vita games, in the hope i might one day get one again.

Or use gamesnash.ie an Irish online shop that's represented on boards. They also email codes.

RobbingBandit

I posted on the previous page HMV have the 90 day sub for €10.99, get someone over here you know to pick one up and send you the code in an email.

Same as man. I'm going to download every Vita game going, and maybe in a year or 2, when the price has gone down a bit/they've released a hardware revision, and I've built up a decent library of games, I'll treat myself to one

Is anyone else getting woeful download speeds? I mean even worse than usual.

I'm downloading crysis 2 and it got to about 24% in the 12 hours I was out of the house yesterday. I know it's 7gigs but I've got a 7meg connection so it should be a bit faster than that. Just Cause 2 downloaded much faster.

Are you using wireless or wired connection that sounds like wifi speed on the ps3 which is really rubbish.
