no it's not trading games, it's figuring out what everyone in the group wants and then splitting the cost X (where X is less than or equal to 5) ways

Can you even do that within the new rules?
― Autumn Almanac, Monday, 7 November 2011 00:55 (twelve years ago) link
everything that gets bought before the 18th (or whenever the new rules go into effect) gets grandfathered in. it looks like you can still have 2 simultaneous activations under the new system, though, so you can still split games 50/50 with a bro after the regime change.

the other benefit, as i understand it, is that extant games not currently being shared, are all up for doling out to all within the group and as I am NOT goddammit NOT in a gameshare group currently and have been a psplus nerd from jump, i have a fair amount of shit to offer.

sadly no, it doesn't work like that. when you share games, you're really sharing one PSN account which bought the rights to play a particular piece (or pieces) of PSN software. if you bought a bunch of PSN games on your own personal account, you still can't give them out to people unless you give out your actual PSN login credentials.

RDR is on PSN today and is apparently gameshareable. so far during the Last Days of Gamesharing I've gotten:
- RDR + all DLC- Borderlands + all DLC- BF3- GRIMgRiMoiRe- Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland- Maximo- Odin Sphere- Ring of Red- Raiden III
fuk yeah
― DWARF ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA (jamescobo), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 23:16 (twelve years ago) link
seriously, I've probably bought 60 or so games via shares over the last 2 years as compared to, like, maybe 5 or 6 "officially". you'd think Sony would want that money but, well.

Btw, couldadone better getting skyrim for 360 than ps3
― Don't attack when he is black. (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 23:59 (twelve years ago) link
I got the PS3 version because the odds of a 360 console scratching the disc to hell is frankly unacceptable.

Journey is pretty good but Binary Domain (new game from the guy behind the Yakuza series after he played Gears of War) is AWESOME.

so... i finally got myself one of these, the 320gb+uncharted bundle. now what do i do? what have i missed? i really don't have a clue what games to get, because i have been ignoring them all for the last few years, for the sake of my mental well-being i guess. genre doesn't really matter, every bit of help is welcome.
also please add me (sonderangerbot) if you like, because so far i have no friends :(
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 22 March 2012 18:58 (twelve years ago) link
uncharted 3 is pretty fun btw
― sonderangerbot, Thursday, 22 March 2012 21:20 (twelve years ago) link
then get 2 which is way better imho

i bought a playstation 3 back in january. so far i've really, really enjoyed:
- metal gear solid 4- grand theft auto 4- skyrim- red dead redemption
and i'll put a vote in for the mass effect series altho everything i ever invested into it feels invalidated with the ending of the 3rd one. i'm assuming you don't want that spoiled, but be forewarned: great game, great series, but it has an ending beyond how fucked the matrix series concluded itself
― kelpolaris, Thursday, 22 March 2012 22:08 (twelve years ago) link
but whereas i tend to think of the matrix on it's own terms and never really flew into nerd-rage over it's ultimate conclusion as a "series", mass effect is a game that emphasizes it's finale all throughout the 100+ hours you spend with it... every decision you make, supposedly, influences how the game will end.
― kelpolaris, Thursday, 22 March 2012 22:10 (twelve years ago) link
also, if you're really that far out of the loop:
- bioshock- half life 2/orange box
― kelpolaris, Thursday, 22 March 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
thanks, not that far out of the loop though, have played most of those on 360. will get to mgs4 at some point. mostly curious what ps3 exclusive titles are worth looking into?
