Have a 365 day UK ps plus sealed, got it as a gift and don't want to bother with a UK one as I already have an Irish one for the next 15 months, don't have an adverts account to put it up on at the moment, I closed it off several weeks ago, anyone wanna swap something for this?

I'd be interested in that. Haven't got my games list to hand but I'll PM it to you when I get home from work in the morning. Whether anything takes your fancy is another thing

If you throw out a few titles you're looking for, I'll try and remember if I have them.

They work the exact same way - on the UK psn.

In other words, you will have to set up a new account on your PS3 with a UK address. So unless you're happy to do that, just stick with the Irish ones.

Never had PS+ but I'm in the market for a Vita and a 500 GB PS3 so the + is a no-brainer.

So If I joined today, is there a list of games that are currently available to me?

They change month to month but if you joined today you'd get uncharted 3 and a couple of others for the PS3 and some for the vita. They are due to change Wednesday and the next round for PS3 includes Payday: The Heist and Battlefield 3 pus there are some PS vita games also. You dont have to download them when you "buy" them you can download them whenever you want as long as you keep you ps+.

These are available at the moment, http://ie.playstation.com/playstationplus/#select-tab-gamecollection

Some are due to leave with new ones taking their place in the next few days.

Get it now to take advantage of the refresh.

store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com

plus stuff shows up as free, and the EU playstation blog shows what will be on the next month and what is being removed.

Thanks guys, so one I add them to my queue today I can then download them anytime, correct? I have a 60GB model right now, so can I download, play, dlete and the redownload at a later time (if I get the 500gb console?)

Looks promising! Looking forward to seeing what the EU store offers

EGriff

Damn Sony website, I can only add 10 of my free games to my basket at once, then I have to do 1 extra click to go back and add more.

Not a lot.. but I'd definitely pick up Alice Madness Returns at that price.

I would say that this sale doesn't guarantee an EU equivalent.

As much as I want to renew my plus subscription, I don't have the hardrive space to appreciate the free stuff. Uncharted is 28gb

Zero-Cool

Okay, Battlefield 3, Payday and Saints Row 3 hitting the store tomorrow. What the hell do I play first!!!! That plus I want to get Hotline Miami and definitely getting The Walking Dead: 400 Days.....

Time to get me one of these to cover me at work

jaxdasher

Downloaded the Payday trial all ready to go cos all I need is the Full upgrade tomorrow. I downloaded the Battlefield 3 1 hour trial not sure if it would just need an activation as well but giving it a shot anyway.

Quick question folks, is there any issues with replacing the HDD with a 7200rpm disk rather than the 5400rpm. I'm thinking potential heat issues maybe? Any recommendations for 1TB disks?
