I couldn't get the hype for The Last of Us when it was out first but I saw it cheap on PSstore one day and thought "fúck it, why not?". Now I completely understand... Its one of the rare games that not only lives up to the hype but completely surpasses it. The story is astonishing, the graphics are unreal, I reckon it's the perfect game. So yeah, I'd also recommend The Last of Us.

Could be having a price cut in the next few weeks (based on US and Japanese price cuts + pics from Dutch stores) so would wait a week or two before buying a PS4 now.

In general Argos seem to be the best place. For bundle deals, although their current selection isn't the best they have done it still gets most other bricks and mortar stores.

PS+ is well worth it in my opinion, The free monthly games tend to be indie fare which I know some people aren't crazy about, but you get the occasional gem. And it is a requirement for online gaming.

Thanks a million for all these lads. The Last of Us is a huge reason for me getting it. Friends have been raving about it since day 1.

I'll hold out for a week or two and see does the price drop. If not I was looking at picking up the Destiny: Taken King bundle or the Uncharted bundle from argos and adding in MGSV too.

Thoughts on which is best? Leaning towards Uncharted because of the value for money and the game looks brilliant!

If I'm going to get a years sub to Ps+ is it worth picking up a PsVita on the cheap at some stage to avail of the free games?

I'm going for the Uncharted Bundle with MGSV if there's no price drop. Will wait til end of month and see what happens. Hoping there is and maybe something with either Fallout 4 or Battlefront happening that I can pick up

I started playing Destiny in September 2014 and literally haven't stopped. Game is very addictive. It's grindy and not too everyone's taste but if you get into it you're sorted. It's the best value for money game I've ever got.

Bought Uncharted which is the first other game in about a year I've put anytime into. I'm only on Drake's Fortune and it is a bit dated but absolutley loving it. Played all three before on PS3.

Yeah it's really about the online and end game stuff like Raids, Iron Banner , Strikes , Trials of Osiris. I have a group of people that are into it. Reckon it does something to your brain.,The quest to level up is neverending. Had a few people quit but the recent expansion has been very good.

Does anyone know how CEX and the like go about updating their console trade in values?
I want to trade in my PS3 then upgrade to the PS4, and the rumoured price drop strikes me as a good time to do it. But say, for example, Sony announce a 50 euro reduction in the Rrp for the PS4. Will the PS3 instantly lose 10 or 20% of its trade in value?

Basically should I trade in in advance of any pricing change announcement?

I can't answer your question but I will say this - I cannot think of any reason why the trade in value would go up (outside of that model suddenly becoming a rarity).

In which case, the sooner you trade in, the better.

It is part of the sharing mechanism, it can't be switched off.

Another system update passes by without a 'delete all' function for notifications.
I've just spent 10 minutes deleting my upload notifications, when it's full I can't upload to the cloud or YouTube. Pain in the ass.

All websites said Tuesday for PC and PS4 while the Xbox One would get it on Wednesday. One day really but still annoying looking for something that's not there.

It is there, I just searched on laptop and it's there maybe it got added at midnight but I purchased from Canada store and it's there also... Too bad I must sleep now

Thar_Cian

Yeah, it must have been added at midnight. I won't be able to play it until this evening now. I think I've already encountered a spoiler or two.

It was on the US psn store at around 9pm but was unavailable for a while, was coming up as unavailable as I have purchased the season pass. Was able to download at around 10pm. If you want to avoid spoilers then use the unspoiler chrome extension. It says it's for tv shows but it works for games too. Just enter tales from the Borderlands and any time it's mentioned on any web page, even Facebook it will be in spoiler tags.

May be of some interest to people here, the twitch app is now available on the us store and probably on the eu store soon im guessing

Turtle Beach Ear Force Stealth 500Ps go on sale regularly enough. I picked them up myself almost half price a few months ago.

Saw that this morning. What will this mean for the Argos bundles? Will they reduce an already 'cheap' bundle?

I don't think anything will change on the Argos front, be interesting to see do they go lower though!

That's what I'm hoping. Probably unlikely, but would be quite nice
