Thought as much. Couldn't get through arcade mode either.

@RangeR - Delete your CubixHD game from your PS3(if you have it). In main store search "cub", CubixHD will be second title down and 164MB in size, d/l that and then d/l the unlock one.

I'll try all again. I only have the unlock code on my PS3 though. Search for "Cub" doesn't bring up much for me

Leave out the "". Search for cub.

Going to be grabbing a PS+ subscription over the weekend as I've been considering buying both Gravity Rush and Mortal Kombat since they were released. Really can't go wrong for the cost of the service.

Should work, as far as I can see its a 2.5" form factor which is what is needed by the ps3

I agree that it should work. Can I get it out safely without damaging it is my main concern though.

You won't believe how stunning Gravity Rush looks.

Really looking forward to playing this. Heard nothing but good reviews. Have resigned myself to buying a Vita now. Hoping to get one before christmas.

Anyone know of the best place to purchase one is? €230 in Gamestop for the Wi-Fi one with LBP and a 4G card. Have a 3DS to trade in, they offered me €70 store credit for it, which would make the Vita €150. Is there places selling it cheaper? HMV accepts trade-in's too so i might give there a try.

I would sell the 3DS on Adverts and you will get a lot more than €70 for it, and then get the xtravision deal.

It's available til the 7th. Plenty of time to pick it up.

Hey guys, is it possible to stack 3 month PS+ subscriptions? So if I order say 4 x 3 month subscriptions paying €40 on PSN I would be able to get about 12 months subscription by activating them when each of the individual three months subscriptions has finished?

It would appear they are stackable, lots of discussion about this here:

It *is* stackable....i had a 12 month sub that ended Oct. 2013.....i jusr bought the 3 month 9.99 discount....now its January 2014

I've done this a few times and the subs all add up together.

LOL!....great idea!

The 12 month sub is still 50 Euro, so stacking 4 x 3 monthers = 40 Euro saving you 10 quid!! :cool:

Beefy78

I've just added an extra 90 days onto my PS+ membership.

Klair88

Just got the 90 days stacked on my account too! Great idea. Bought R&C= Q-force too so if anyone is playing it let me know!! Buying the Vita tomorrow. Hopefully.

didn't work. took it apart and the drive had some kind of proprietary circuit board attaching it to a usb 3.0 port.

Ah well 1tb storage for 50 squids ain't bad

Varik

Would get some more time added to my account but I've got 2 years as it is from the last discount.

Just wishful thinking but in a few years when psn or psn+ service closes. Hope we get to keep the games for good.

PS+ probably wont close, Id say it will last forever and carry on from console to console.

Yup....Sony cant just abandon 80 million customers...there'd be war! :mad:
Either a firmware update to the new PS4 store or one for the new console and one for the old.
but this news is rather concerning....http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/22/us-sony-panasonic-ratings-idUSBRE8AL07B20121122

I reckon the only way PSN/PS+ will end is if Sony stop they're console line.

Forever, forever, ever, forever, ever?

CastorTroy

ever ever? ever ever?

I suppose what would be interesting to see is if we can download the games to the PS4 or do we have to keep our PS3?

So latest 12 Deals is Battlefield 3 for €39.99 with an extra 10% off for Plus.
