    They disappeared a few days ago. Was waiting to get paid before I bought Bound By Flame and thought that it was available till 12 tonight but alas when I went in this morning to buy it, it was no longer on sale.

    They were still showing up yesterday for me, weird that all the other sale items are still showing up though.

    Might be a good heads up for some of the posters here who have a meltdown once the PSN goes down and say they had no warning.
    Sony has announced the PlayStation Network will be offline for scheduled maintenance on Monday between 9.40 PT / 12.40 ET / 17.40 GMT until 16.50 PT / 19.50 ET on Monday / 00.50 GMT on Tuesday August 26.

    During that time, you'll be unable to access the PlayStation Store, Account Management or Account Registration services, though anyone who's logged into the PSN since August 20 will be able to access entertainment services like Netflix or play games online.

    Cool, at least it is not the weekend or a bank holiday monday. Hopefully this is Sony preparing for the new firmware.

    It's a bank holiday for some of us! :p

    Depends, Now. Source updated?

    Only have my PS4 about 3 weeks so just wondering are there any "must have" indie games on the PSN store worth picking up? I'm trading in Watch Dogs this weekend for TLOU and picking up Madden 15 Tuesday but are there any games that came out in the last year or so worth picking up cheap? Heard Wolfenstein is decent but I'm not really a FPS fan. Watch Dogs is ok but I'm kind of bored with it now, think I'm around 3/4 through the Campaign.

    Hohokum, Resogun (get the DLC too), Transistor and Towerfall Ascension are all fantastic and must buys IMO. Also Rogue Legacy and the Swapper if you haven't played them on PC.

    Cheers, will give them a go.

    Agree with all of the above (must play Hohokum and The Swapper myself).

    Others can be played elsewhere too but if you haven't played them Guacamelee, Trials Fusion and Fez.

    I've also enjoyed Octodad, Don't Starve and Strider but the latter two were free.

    Did you actually upload the characters to "the cloud" on your ps3/360 ? You have to do that as well as linking accounts.

    The fall update is 2.0, there is still time for firmware updates between now and then with new features...

    One of the most disappointing things about the PS4 for me is that Sony have not improved PSN. The constant downtime for maintenance is a joke at this stage and imo is not acceptable now that users are required to pay to play online. PS gamers should put more of a fuss about it.

    The PSN is not the worst, Sure it has it's maintenance times, but so did the PS3 it's first 2 years.

    The worst thing for me is the PS4 operating system itself, It just seems incomplete to me, takes forever to load buddy lists and just forgets to load a message when you've gotten the notification for one, and for a system with so much memory, i get the "out of system memory" a bit too much on PS4, specially when using the web browser with plex or any other HTML5 or flash videos, it just seems it can't multitask at all and seems incredibly sluggish at times.

    Perhaps when 2.00 firmware updates lands it will fix a lot of these issues, but will just have to wait and find out.

    PSN maintenance times and the amount of times per year is a joke at this stage now that we are paying for it. XBL goes down 2-3 times a year tops for maintenance and only for a few hours at a time. PSN is every second month.
