[PS3 Centraal SC #65] Wachten op Gamer's Day Newsavalanche

quote:

De aankomende PlayStation 3-exclusieve hack 'n slash game Heavenly Sword is voor zo'n 90% compleet. Dat verklaart Tameem Antoniades, mede-oprichter van ontwikkelaar Ninja Theory. Het team is nu vooral druk bezig met testen en bugs fixen, voordat het spel in september van dit jaar uitkomt. Antoniades is trots op de prestaties van Heavenly Sword op de PlayStation 3, maar hij zegt dat er nog meer uit Sony's nieuwste console te halen valt.

Verder verklaart Antoniades dat er zeker wordt gedacht aan een multiplayer. Hoewel Heavenly Sword bij de launch alleen een singleplayer bevat, is het mogelijk dat het een uitbreiding wordt die later bijvoorbeeld via het PlayStation Network te downloaden is. De game is namelijk ook getest met multiplayer, om de balans goed te krijgen, dus het concept is er zeker geschikt voor. Hoewel er helemaal niets zeker is, verklaart Antoniades dat áls er een multiplayer wordt gedaan, het ook echt goed gedaan wordt.

Sony heeft heel veel investeringen gedaan et afgelopen jaar. HDTV, OLED-TV, PS3, Blu-Ray, dat drukt allemaal op de omzet.
Microsoft heeft investeringen in.... X360, Vista Office 2007 en Zune gedaan. That's about it. Niet echt vergelijkbare investeringen, lijkt mij.

PlayStation Store Game Sharing

Sony announced that players who download games from PlayStation's online shop can share them on up to five other PS3 machines. If a player logs into his PlayStation 3 account on a friend's system, he can download any game he has already purchased. "You can send that content to four other friends for that initial investment," said Tretton. "We want to get the game in as many hands as possible."
"It's not about generating profits at each and every interaction with the consumer," he said. "I think that really offsets the argument that says, 'Wow, that's a really pricey system.'"

from PlayStation Customer Support

I purchased some downloadable game content on the PLAYSTATIONŽNetwork. Part of the product description says the content can be used or downloaded on up to five (5) activated PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system units. What does that mean?
Answer: This means that the content that you purchased may be used by other users on an activated PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system unit after you downloaded the content onto your PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system unit. Some content may require the user to have a PLAYSTATIONŽNetwork account, and other content may require you to have additional game content that may be sold separately. For example, you may need to purchase a full game in order to use the character that you purchased on the PLAYSTATIONŽNetwork for the game.
Please review the use restrictions associated with the content you purchased. The content may be played up on to 5 activated PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system units at any one time. PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system units may be deactivated so that you can change which PLAYSTATIONŽ3 system units are activated at any time.

If you have four other friends with a PS3, you can all download the same game from the PlayStation Store using one PSN ID. So 5 people can share a game, and share the cost also. Here are some guidelines from Grinchy at ps3forums.

*If you will be hosting a game share*

You can use your own PSN ID if you have already purchased games and want to share them for money. For most sharing it's a pretty good idea to make a new PSN ID.

* Go to the left side of the XMB and hit "Create New User". Make it any name you want.
* Go to the right side of XMB. You will only have 1 option, to make a PSN ID. You will put in an E-mail address. Either put in one of your own, or make a new spam account on Yahoo Mail(recommended).
* Your new PSN ID is ready to be used. Go through the normal steps for buying a PSN game.
* After buying and downloading your new purchase go to the right side of XMB to account management. Select Account Management again.
* Here, go to "Edit Billing Info" and remove all information. Then go to "Edit Account Info" and remove all that information. This is so that no one can get on this account and purchase other software on your dime. Use this if you don't personally know the people in your group.
* Send username/password out to the people who have payed you for their portion of the game.
* When pricing each persons's share of the cost, remember that PayPal will charge around 30-40 cents per member deposit.

*If you are purchasing the game through a sharing host*

* Go to the left side of the XMB and hit "Create New User". Make it any name you want.
* Go to the right side of XMB. You will only have 1 option, to make a PSN ID. Select "Use existing account" and put in the info that was sent to you by the person hosting your share.
* Now you should be able to get on the PS Store, and click on "Download List". In this list will be the downloads that have been made on the account. Whatever game has been bought on the account will be right there. Click download, and you're set.
* Log off of the ID when you have finished and you can play the game on your regular ID!

Tips:

* A good trick is to change your password after everyone in your group is done downloading. That way they can't get back onto your ID unless you share with them again and give the new password out.

* Don't send the Login/Password out until you have gotten your PayPal payment
