Sorry Jon, why are you in the PS4 thread again?

I'm still waiting to hear which Xbox One games require a 30gb patch.

Halo MCC and, until Ubi sorted out delta patching, AC Unity on Xbox both had patches north of 30GB. Any chance you could move on from being hysterically defensive of anything related to Microsoft, or at least keep it contained to the Xbox thread?

Honestly. Which fools, who are willing to let me know, because, yes, I'm not going to pay for member privileges, have negged me so heavily for asking who negged my initial question?*

I'll give anyone who owns up a quid.

You can put it towards your therapy.

*so many commas.

I will sell you the names of people that have negged you in the last week for a pound per name.

I'd already guessed Halo would be one, but that was a total mess at launch. I presume Assasins Creed was just as bad then.

I don't get how I'm being defensive though, I just asked a simple question about patches, as I wasn't aware they were so big. Or not, as the case may be.

Then people decided it was negging time, so I just joined in with that. They all love the rep system, right? So it's all good fun.

Did you just call them and say it was really loud? Did they give you any trouble

Entered a claim form on their website and was told to ring a number with a reference code.

The bloke on the phone asked a few questions so I just reiterated how loud it was and during fairly simple gameplay scenes, the console was spinning up like a jet engine. With no fuss, he said they'll need to take a look at it. They emailed me a dispatch note so I found a box, packed it up and sent it off yesterday.

Really decent service so far, although my console was just a shade under 6 months old.

It's very generous of Sony to make Journey etc cross-buy. They're electing to give up a fair bit of sales there.

I downloaded it, and a bunch of MKX DLC, via the PSN webstore whilst at work, and it'll be sitting ready for me when I get in. The PS4's automatic downloading in stand-by is a lovely feature.

Isn't that a publisher decision rather than Sony? thatgamecompany should be thanked. I think they did the same thing with Flower.

That's pretty good service.!

Sony also came up with the initial cross buy and cross play idea to go with their service before the vita launch. They've clearly encouraged it given the number of cross buy games that seem to be available on ps plus alone

System software 2.57 is out - a 245MB download dedicated, like the last one, to 'improving stability'. Hopefully it'll fix that damn power options message a few of us have as a permanent welcome every time we reboot the machine, and my online friends list will start updating in real time again.

(What'll probably happen is that they'll stay the same and What's New will break again in sympathy with its fallen comrades.)

Edit: as expected, it does nothing at all to fix anything. Nothing new's broken either though, so it's a win of sorts.

If anyone's looking for something to play on their PS4 at the moment I can highly recommend The Fall which came out on psn the other week. It's kind of a cross between Metroid and point & click adventure games, and is brilliantly written. Only 6 quid at the moment as well so rude not to.

FYI, PayPal/Sony have the "get £50 credit for £40" offer on again.

Hmm. So if I do the PayPal thing, and then pre-order TTK, it'd cost me £30 instead of £40. That is, if I actually went on to use the left-over tenner for something I'd be genuinely happy to pay a tenner for.

TTK - worth £30 and a self-deluding bout of arithmetical gymnastics? Hmm.

Hmm.

Man maths sounds good!

It's always worth waiting until CD Keys have a good deal on for that sort of maths, too.

Yeah, they're never quite that good though, as far as I've noticed. Best you get is paying around £30 for £35 PSN credit, or (worse) getting a £35 expansion for £32. Their XBL sub deals often represent a saving of about 50%, but PSN savings have been relatively meagre over the past year. And I don't reckon Activision are going to shift on a pre-release price of £40 for TTK, or drop it for a while after release, so I reckon the best you're going to do - admittedly using slightly iffy maths - is £30 for TTK on PS4. (Or £32 if you're being a bit more intellectually honest about it.) Like I said, hmm.

Odd, isn't it? I'd have no real qualms at £25, but £30 (or worse still, £32) still feels a bit off.
