The menu system seems to be a little messed up however you access the store. On my PS3, the store only shows 3 PSP games in the sale, and no Vita games. Then the Vita doesn’t really show anything at all under a category. However all the games do have their correct sale/Plus prices.

The best thing to do for now is check the PS EU Blog page below and if you see anything you like, punch the name in to the PS store search engine and it will show the game with the correct price. Otherwise searching through droves of games would be tiring. It isn’t anything to do with devices though. It’s more likely the PS store hasn’t been adjusted correctly so hopefully the store team will get it sorted.

The PlayStation Store January sale starts today!

Very possibly yes. I’ve heard so much about this game yet I am still to take a proper look at it. If it’s my thing (and I think it is), then I’d definitely be up for some meet ups.

Any wish for GRID 2 meet ups? I know you couldn’t make the last one because of PS plus. Either way I’d like to try and set a meet up sometime in the new year, the game is decent online and I do love racing.

[Avenger]

Borderlands 2 and Far Cry 3 are slightly older co-op games which I’ll be playing myself after Christmas. I forgot about Diablo 3 though, one more to reason to buy it. I’ll be doing Dead Space 3 as well. A cracking game on co-op.

[Avenger]

Wow, Congratulations Youles that was fast. Are you still healthy and sane after the Veteran Campaign. I know it drives me up the wall with frustration sometimes.

[Avenger]

I’m tempted to say Far Cry 3, but I think that’s because I’ve been playing it recently and am a bit miffed by the low framerate and 720p resolution.

Other than that I’m a bit baffled as to what game I would like to return too. Hmm.

Ah come to think of it, I’d happily have all three Halo’s, CE, 2 and 3 all in next generation graphics. Oh sugar, forgot it was PS3 to PS4. Hmm. I’m typing aloud here.

Ah ha! Mirror’s edge. Without a doubt, Mirror’s edge. Love it. Want to see a 1080p, 60 FPS visual feast. Aww, what about Demon Souls though. No don’t want to play that again. Mirror’s edge, and Far Cry 3. Those two games I’d love, plus Read Dead Redemption as Gazza noted above.

Well there you go, the innards of my mind for five minutes.

[Avenger]

I’m relatively the same Gazzagb. There were games that were bought and played for 1 hour and then were deleted after consideration. Stuff like Fallout 3 and Red Faction never grabbed me, so they got the elbow from the PC backlog.

AC2 got put to one side for a while because there was a moment when it was just the same old crap and I couldn’t be bothered. Darksiders had a difficulty spike so that got put down for a while, but then it got picked up again, got past the spike, and it was a good game. Sometimes developers do ruin things with stupendous difficulty. Something like Dark Souls isn’t difficult either, it’s challenging; that’s what I like, challenge.

Luckily I avoided ArmA 3 being added to that PC backlog, otherwise my life would have been lost in coding AI/Levels.

@Gazzagb Most of my list is the last one year from PS+, with a only a few titles being bought like Dead Space 3 which is on the PC. Rest assured every single one of them I have installed and ready to play and all of them certainly will be played. But I’m busy with University, and so a few games are only being played at a time. Dead Space 3 and Bioshock Infinite (I’m looking forward to these) will get done through Christmas despite working on essays through the festive period. This coming Summer won’t have a PC backlog, so PS3 will be played, played and played.

The only one thing with that list is that it’s a irony that next year I’d like to buy GT6 and BF4, as well as a ton of other PS3 games which I’ll wait and see as to whether they come to PS plus. If not, they’ll get picked up at the end of the year.

The PC backlog I got through during Summer was:

Assassin’s Creed 2
Assassin’s Creed Revelations
Dragon Age 2
Sins of a Solar Empire
Rage
Batman Arkham Asylum
Bioshock
Bioshock 2
Dead Space
Dead Space 2
Portal
Portal 2
Far Cry 2
Half Life 2
Metro 2033
Bastion
Alan Wake
Dawn of War II
XCOM Enemy Unknown
Darksiders
Test Drive 2

… That’s about it I think.

[Avenger]

Well Sony weren’t jumping with joy to do any for Vita, and it took a while to do some innovative themes for PS3 after release so at best I’d say give it a while. Surely some simple image backgrounds will be available soon though.

[Avenger]

Well it’s just a case of having a gaming device to keep myself occupied. My PS3 won’t run dry for a long time now, and I have the Vita for a lot of portable games so PS4 isn’t worth it at the moment.

[Avenger]

Guacamelee has been a brilliant game so far, I’m thoroughly enjoying it.

I’ve also been playing a lot of Battlefield 3 and I’m trying to get the Modern Warfare 3 Platinum but I’m trying to stay on the right side of sanity with the Veteran campaign difficulty.

Killzone Mercs is still waiting too but every time I play it my fingers are magically drawn to the multiplayer. I can’t say some of the contracts are very appealing to be honest. I think I have something like 7000 kills racked up, with 2500 of them in single player. I was heading for the best match results screenshot on Warzone when I had fended off 4 players on my own (rambo-style) and had earned 69 warzone points and 70 kills in a single match. Unfortunately the game disconnected me one minute before match end. I swore a lot after that.

[Avenger]

I bought WRC3 in the sale too, but again it’s taking a back seat.

Anyhow, my backlog:

Modern Warfare 3
Battlefield 3
WRC 3
GRID 2
The Last of Us
Bioshock Infinite
Dead Space 3
Batman Arkham City
Far Cry 3
NFS Most Wanted
LittleBigPlanet 2
LittleBigPlanet Karting
Resident Evil 5
Dead or Alive 5
Mass Effect 3
Catherine
Motorstorm Apocalypse
Infamous 2
Knytt Underground
Limbo
God of War HD
Okami HD
Jak and Daxter collection HD
Joe Danger: The Movie
Malicious
Stealh Inc: A Clone in the Dark
New Little Kings Story
Virtue’s Last Reward
Velocity Ultra
Rayman Origins
Motorstorm RC
Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
Uncharted 3
Spec Ops: The Line
Assassin’s Creed 3
Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen
Demon Souls
Lord of the Rings: War in the North
Middle-Earth
Vanquish
…and a few others here and there.

Most of it’s from Plus, as I stormed through a PC backlog of twenty or more games during the Summer. Although I’m racking up this many games, give it three months of Summer in 2014 and a lot of it will be cut through in pure gaming bliss. PS4 will probably be purchased sometime in 2015 depending on what I want to do then.

[Avenger]

Argh, annoys me that developers can’t fix these trophies. Nearly had a problem with Modern Warfare 3 but it seems OK now. It comes to something when I have to check whether a game works before I get it. That applies bugs of all sorts, not just trophies.

There is a GRID 2 meet on Wednesday if anyone fancies it anyhow. I’ll try to make it on that day myself.

@freezebug2 impressive work there on GRID 2, but do be aware that I’ve heard of some glitches with GRID 2 trophies. Particularly the global challenges one has been difficult because of an unfixed glitch.

I’m only a short way in to the game so far. Still focusing on MW3/BF3 stuff funnily enough.

[Avenger]

I would like to be added.

I’ve redeemed the first two items. Thanks for posting, really like the idea of the Killzone theme, downloading now.

That just leaves the Knack theme for someone to redeem. I already received that via email.
