I think buying games in general is dumb. Since I own every console I get much more for my money by using gamefly and being able to play whatever game I want. Buy 6 games a year or play 30+ different games for the year. =p

Not common. I'm chalking it up to everyone having the day/night off for Christmas. PSN is shit tonight. Ubisoft servers wouldn't connect, etc. They need to work on their infrastructure or something.

If everyone is like me and used Amazon Prime - they should be getting their PS4s that Amazon had in stock on Saturday right about now. Not sure how big an influx that is but generally Amazon sells out instantly when they get stock and it lasted almost 12 hours so they probably sold a ton.

Yeah, the holiday combined with a new wave of owners will do it. PSN was pretty fucked on release day as well, but it's been generally good since.

I also got my PS4 from BestBuy last night from the huge shipment they had online where they were available online for most of the day (17th or so) So an influx of those arriving now too.

Thanks for the heads up on Animal Crossing for the 3DS. My wife has been playing it since the moment I gave it to her.

She seems to really like it.

Zen Pinball 2 currently available for free on the PS4 in the store.

Also, a new game just hit the PSN+ area as well. Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed for the Vita.

Speaking of pinball. Anyone get Pinball Arcade for PS4? I am finding it pretty much unplayable because of input lag. It's confusing me because it's getting good reviews and it plays like shit for me. I have the same game on my phone and the flippers are spot on and instant. Wondering if there is something wrong with my controller or if anyone else is having the same problem.

So reading over the GOTY thread, and I saw Last of Us on there a number of times. Combined with how many free games get tossed out on PS+, is it worth it to pick up a PS3 for cheap, just to start tagging the free games at least?

I imagine at this point I can pick up a used one for cheap, and just take advantage of free games, with maybe a few must have's sprinkled in?

You should have a PS3 for games like TLoU and others, but you can tag games on PS+ without having a PS3. You just need to go to Sony's webstore:https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwo...n-us/home/main

this is the link I use to tag games, I don't own a ps3 but I tag any new ones in case I ever buy a cheap ps3. sony's website is ass, so saving this link in bookmarks is a good way to not be forced to navigate it

So freakin' awesome! Thank you spronk! I picked up a $35 PS+ subscription from Best Buy that I will pick up in the next couple days, and be good to go! All these free games was too good to pass up right now.

If I buy another year of PS+ does it add to the end of my subscription or do I need to wait for my year to finish?
