Have 139gb free and the update is about 50mb so it can't be that.

Uninstall and install again might fix it.

I don't think that's true for the PS4, it used to be that the game was downloaded and then installed so you needed twice as you'd have the game install and the downloaded game both there at the same time before the download was deleted. The PS4 installs as it goes after downloading a small initial amount.

Ordered MGS V from the game collection on Thursday evening, it just arrived at my parcel motel

CombatCow

Nice, mad max arrived at my PM and I'm expecting TPP tomorrow Base.com via rakuten.

Varik

Works been crazy for the last 6 months. Some destiny during the weekend is all I can do.

So by November when I won't be in a state of constant crunch I'll have;

Witcher 3
Batman
Metal Gear
Fallout
Battlefront

Few older games on top of that as well.

Will start with the first 2 and work from there.

Play Asia not doing free shipping anymore?

The Witcher 3 is a class game. Unbelievably immersive, it'll take you a long time to complete it!

Started it last week, only in the second map section of it (Vizima??).
Amazing so far.

anybody use shopto.net for preordering? are they fast for delivery? preordered MGS V there to get the steelbook with day1 edition

I hear they're fairly ghastly for that. What does the steelbook look like?

Xenji wrote: »

They used to be good, have not used them in 2 years though, but everything came within 3 days of release and they used DPD for their deliveries.

An answer to my own question a few months back
Received my copy of mgs this morning so delighted with the delivery time

MilesMorales1

Is anywhere in Dublin selling the uncharted collection steelbook?

Tearaway seems like a pretty good game, has anyone tried it on Vita if so whats it like?... Is it as enjoyable as Little Big Planet?... It's $40 on the Canada store debating on preordering it for €27...

Taltos

Brilliant on the Vita - great little game. I'll have to return to it someday. Some clever tools in use there.

Xenji

Tearaway is a very enjoyable game, it made use of nearly all the features of the Vita, the game mechanics may seem a bit unusual at first, but it really adds to its charm when you get used to them.

Trying to download the most recent update to a usb key and it says approximate time 4hrs, what the hell?
Now it says 9 hrs

Codes will work on the French store.
Don't know about the language, but I'd imagine there is an option to change languages.

System software 3.0 details

• Online storage capacity increase — PS4 online storage capacity has increased from 1GB to 10GB for all PS Plus members. In 3.00 system software, you’ll see that we added a handy usage meter to monitor your available storage capacity, and a new Auto-Upload menu has been added to Application Saved Data Management.

• YouTube live — PS4 owners will be able to live stream gameplay to YouTube. Live streams will be viewable across YouTube, including on the new YouTube Gaming mobile app and website.

• Events — A new hub for events has been added, giving an overview of activities taking place in the games you play most, as well as official broadcasts. For instance, you may see an update for a Double XP weekend, a special enemy appearing at a scheduled time, or seasonal events like in-game towns being decorated for the winter. You’ll also receive notifications when the event starts, or if the timing changes.

• Favorite Groups — Favorite Groups has been added to the Friends app, letting you quickly access groups of people you like to play games with frequently. This will make the process of getting a game session up and running even easier.

• Communities — PS4 users will have the ability to create communities based around shared interests, like games, genres, and more. Communities include a message board with general discussion, screenshots shared by players, and the ability to join parties / games. If you want to tackle a big multiplayer raid, but don’t have enough friends available, this could be a great way to connect with other players who are looking for the same thing.

• Sharing video clips to Twitter — Users will have the ability to share video clips directly to Twitter. Maximum video length is 10 seconds, though you’ll have the ability to trim longer clips.

• Stickers — Tired of typing out messages? With this update, you’ll be able to send stickers to friends through the messages.

• Now Playing / What’s New — The Now Playing screen will display even more information about what your friends are doing, and you’ll be able to quickly jump into a game, party, request a screen share, or get sent to the PS Store to buy the game your friend is playing – further enhancing the social relationship with your friends online.

• Live from PlayStation — We’ve improved the Live From PlayStation app, making it easier to view popular trending broadcasts in real-time.

• Request to watch gameplay — Want to view a friend’s gameplay session? Now you can send a ‘Request to Watch’ notification to a player, which will start a live broadcast or Share Play invitation to the person playing.
• Screenshots: We’ve listened to your feedback and we’re happy to confirm that PNG format is now an option for Screenshot saves

The 10GB online storage will be most welcome. 1GB was ridiculously low.

PS+ update day and MGSV digital downloads are killing it. It's always the same every month with the PS Plus day and when any AAA game is released.

As well if some save files were not so stupidly big, some are 500Mb!

Its actually a much better game than LPB. Controls are much tighter.

If you have a vita I'd recommend getting it on that, as it makes great use of the front camera.
