PlayStation Network
PlayStation Network, officially abbreviated PSN, is an online multiplayer gaming and digital media delivery service provided by Sony Computer Entertainment for use with the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Portable, and PlayStation Vita video game consoles. The PlayStation Network is the video game portion of the Sony Entertainment Network Sony's second console, the PlayStation 2, had a limited number of online features in select games via its online network. It required a Network Adaptor, which was available as an add-on for original models, and integrated into the hardware on slimline models. However, Sony provided no unified online service for the system, so support for network features was specific to each game and there was no interoperability of cross-game presence. In March 2006, Sony announced the online network for its upcoming PlayStation 3 system at the 2006 PlayStation Business Briefing meeting in Tokyo, Japan, tentatively named "PlayStation Network Platform".

Saved!I understand and agree completely with them updating the Trophy levels but it feels so weird. I jumped from Level 18 to Level 309 overnight. Especially since I've had a PSN account since 2006.... It'll be cool to have some actual progression again though. I can imagine a lot of folks really stopped caring about trophies when they got to the teen levels where you needed a Plat just to get any noticeable progression.

Saved!The cost of digging up oil to turn into plastic, the cost of chopping down trees to make the cover, the cost of logistics for every part of the process, the cost of retail workers etc etc - store price £49.99

Saved!#Life is Strange for a fiver? Yes please! :)
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I feel like I'm buying way too many games but they're all so damn cheap. I was worried about all this digital distribution stuff but it's great.
-
Saved!Silent GamerEditing … I love digital distibution. The price is the only thing that puts me off. So whenever it is cheap, I am all over it!
-
Saved!neogaf has a "My PSN was hacked" thread almost every day
sometimes more than once a day
and we all know how Sony deals with that
I removed all the cards from my account so I couldn't be charged if I get hacked. Might be a good idea.-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … Is it safe to buy psn using PayPal without my PayPal getting comprised? I could buy using eBay instead if I have to. So I'm just wondering what I should do.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … I'd say it's totally safe to buy from PSN, but do NOT allow it to remember your payment info. Just use it, and the next time you need to buy from PSN, go through the setup of entering payment info again. This may work differently with Paypal, you might be even safer going that way.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Me, I just enter the card every time, not saving it. No chance of me getting fucked on there.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Just make sure it doesn't stay linked to the PSN, if you're also worried about the potential risk of getting hacked. Sony doesn't do shit if someone charges you.
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … I don't get your strategy. Why would it matter if you remove your card, wont hackers still have access to it? Oh I think I get it, your method simply safeguards against people hijacking your psn account from using your cards to make purchases. (and from gaining your card info, assuming it's possible for anyone with your psn to see that info) Anyway, I added the game to my cart and was just about to add a payment method. I find it strange though I can't simply pay using PayPal without putting it on file as a payment method. That's actually the phrasing Sony uses. It says I have no payment methods "on file". It's like they're TRYING to give me cold feet.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Yea, if they get into the PSN account, at least they can't cause me to get charged (and Sony does not return funds)
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … Ok I was about to add my PayPal but then it shows my bank and last four digits of my bank number (it's the one tied to my PayPal account) asking me if I want to use that as a payment method, at least if there isn't enough money in my PayPal. Umm.. if there isn't enough in my PayPal why not just prevent me from buying whatever I was about to buy? Meh, I'm thinking I should stop being impatient and just use eBay.
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … It even says that if I agree, it lets me complete the purchase without having to log into PayPal. As if that's a good thing! >:/
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … It would be if PSN could, you know... not get its users hacked fourty times a day
