it'd be nice if Crytek stopped making QTE games and rerelease Crysis 1-3 on the new consoles.

No. How about they take one of many great old games that is well remembered and loved and remake that instead. Crytek can't write a story and make gameplay for shit.

I just went ahead and spent my 10 dollars of psn wallet cash on the extra warranty in case I ever need it. $40 bucks for 3 years isn't bad at all.

Good thing I bought psn + for $30 last week on sale. Did anyone try and add their code from that to their existing free trial of psn plus? Did it work?

The 30 day code that came with the PS4 does stack if you are an existing member. I had no problems doing it. But the 7 day trial that came with Killzone wont work.

Get a few more days out of it. I set mine to auto renew to false. So I'll just enter my Amazon code on the 15th of this month. The 7 day trial codes seem to be for new members only except the little cards say new or existing psn accounts.

Just got my ps4 tonight and played ghosts for a little bit. Looking thru the free games and dc universe is 22.7gb? That's huge for a fighting game.

Dc universe is an online game kind of like that warcraft game where you play with others and stuff through the world. It's not just fighting. I was going to try it but I was not sure if I would like it.

Ha, I thought it was a fighting game like the others were before it. Thanks for the heads up I'm not downloading that game

I'm really impressed with the os this time. Its a lot better then it was on the ps3 and the ds4 controller is amazing, they really hit the nail on the head with the controller. Looking forward to see what they give away with PS+ since the system just launched. Resogun is pretty cool, reminds me a lot of geometry wars. I haven't played any of the other games but I'll download them tonight

Yeah I like resogun. Try contrast. I finished it earlier. They have some plane game coming soon kind of like crimson skies. That's something I would be interested in.

On chapter 7 of killzone, yeah the free fall parts suck. Damn game is too hard to the point that I don't want to continue. Nothing original really, the environments make it seem like it's hard to find where to go, waves of enemies, so on. Guess I will trudge on until the end. I feel like I should have got knack instead but oh well. By the time I'm done with killzone, bf4, cod and start playing AC, I'll pick up knack for cheaper.

Only way I've been able to figure it out is by going to: https://account.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/liquid/cam/media/media-list.action and checking the expiration for media. I'm sure there's another way, I just haven't ventured to look deeper.

Oh you can go to settings, psn, account information, then services and subscriptions you should see psn trial and psn plus. This is through the console. I think under account info there is active subscriptions that's where it will be.

I'm surprised so many of you like Resogun. I honestly thought the game was trash. You know what game I'd love to see on PS4. Geometry Wars. Now that was an excellent game. One of the best xbox live arcade games ever, IMO.

i agree that geometry wars > resogun, but once you understand how to play resogun it's tons of fun.

Resogun is amazing. You need to play it for a little bit to fully understand how it works with saving humans and keeping multipliers.

I'm interested in the plane game, that could end up being a really cool arcade type game. I'm gonna get on twitch and look up contrast to see how it plays.

I wonder if PSN will get D&D Neverwinter? There are several PC titles I hope to see on PS4 now that I no longer have my gaming rig.

Have any of you got into any bf4 servers today? Three times I restart the game and I get past the level loading screen only to have a black screen and music playing in the background with the little dash in the top corner like it's loading.

I heard about the bf4 issues and never bought the game. The buddy said he hasn't been able to get on either today
