Will Shovel Knight be cross play between Vita/PS4? If so, I'll be glad I held off the Wii U/Steam version

EDIT: Cross play title from Spring Fever line up:

HELLDIVERS
(PS4 / PS3 / PS Vita)*

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
(PS4 / PS3 / PS Vita)*

Metal Slug 3

(PS4 / PS3 / PS Vita)*

Titan Souls

(PS4 / PS Vita)*

Shovel Knight

(PS4 / PS3 / PS Vita)*

I'm more excited about HM2 than any other game this year. It's the perfect pick up and play, 5 minutes before and after work let off some steam bennett game. Killer music, loud guns and extreme brutal violence. Perfect recipe for fun

That spring line up is looking good. Do we have actual release dates yet?

Try using the router then. I've found it good for some games and unplayable for others. But it is a good feature and I welcome any improvements.

I could, but I don't use wireless in my house because I have cables routed under the floors, and the direct connection between PS4 and Vita ought to offer the lowest latency. I might try it at some point if I decide to use remote play again.

I'm trying to sign up for the MVP program, to get early access to new OS features, etc. However, the store doesn't let me login (says it failed), and the us.playstation site has an invalid certificate. I know there's nothing wrong with my login, it's saved in Lastpass, and hasn't changed recently.

Good grief.

Putting a beta-firmware made by Sony onto my PS4 is pretty much the last thing I'd do!

[TehStu]

So it finally let me login to SEN, I didn't change anything my end. The cert for us.playstation is still funky though, so I just went to www.playstation, logged in, then typed in us., and the SSO logged me in. Clunky as hell.

Yeah, I'm not going to bother. I thought the MVP thing would be like opting into MS Xbox beta stuff, but it's a whole "community champion" type thing, which I can't be arsed with, particularly with Sony.

What do you have to do, lock people's accounts and stuff?

When PSN goes down you have to pretend everything's fine and convince people that there's no problem.

[Exit Chamber]

[TehStu]

That, and organize events, write tutorials and other nonsense. If being on a beta program involves more than entering my email address, they can poke it up their bum.

Can you add PSN friends via the site? I couldn't see where to do it.

[Shimmyhill]

I signed up to the PSN beta back in the ps2 days, no way are we out of it yet so everyone must be on it!

[TehStu]

Well that and there's no games to play on a PS4 anyway.

10% off your basket on UK PSN for no apparent reason. Today only. Works on already-discounted stuff.

[SMD]

So wait, if I buy Stealth Inc on the PS4, I'd have to buy it again to play on Vita?

[bradigor]

Yep. The PS4 version I believe is a deluxe version with all DLC, so not compatible with the Vita version.

[SMD]

That's rubbish.

Can you use it on preorders?

[toythatkills]

It takes it off your basket total, so if you can add pre-orders to the basket, then yes, but I don't think you can.

[Stanley]

That's rubbish.

So is Stealth Inc so save your money.

Seems like a good day to pick up Trials Fusion Deluxe and Helldivers.

Just upgraded my Hard drive to 2 TB on PS4. Installing Games and Downloading updates. Fun times. (22 games)

Where's Spotify?!

[Rob Rymond]

Small things, but the 0% trophies deletion will be useful for all those Ps+ games I boot up and don't like. I know the Xbox has had it years but still...

[TehStu]

Yeah, I prefer a greater cadence of releases with a smaller set of functionality. They're more likely to screw something up trying to get the kitchen sink done.
