Uncharted 3 Single Player is now free for all NA and SA PSN members [Up: Gone]

Uh, only the singleplayer?

I guess you still need to buy the DLC and $10-15 "pass" to get the multiplayer with the free to play unless they made that free as well?

DLing it right now. I started downloading single player, but it's downloading multiplayer. Hopefully I got it right, and hopefully I have room on the PS3.

They only put the single player on PS+ before, and this looks like it's the same thing so you still have to pay for multiplayer. You don't need to buy the DLC map packs though, they made that all free.

So i WAS right. 'Murica does get everything.

It was free in Europe for PS+ members only. It's free in US for absolutely everyone.

God damn it... I'll create a US account just for Uncharted 3 i guess T_T...

The "whole" game was never released digitally. Of course since this was already on PS+ and Sony still hasn't fixed it so you can forever purchase something you already "own via PS+" I was forced to dl on an alt account.

Isn't this the whole game though?

That's such a huge amount for a Singleplayer, BTW does this version have Trophies?
I got it in Canada on the web store so i guess it works in Canada too?
 
Well shit.

Wait, you're not talking about PS+ are you? I'm not with PS+.... Are you saying it's been free on the normal Playstation Store?!

Take PS+, it's free in EU, has bee for a year (like Gravity Rush and Uncharted Golden Abyss for VIta) :

PS+ has monthly games that rotates, and had yearly games too. Grab it fast as I think it updates next few hours and they cancel yearly in US PS+ this month so...

I pressed download single player and it started downloading multiplayer?

That's how it works. The singleplayer is technically DLC for the F2P multiplayer. It downloads a bunch of different stuff, actually: 3D movies, language packs, etc. Some of it is optional, so the actual download size should be smaller than 40 Gb.

But what if I already downloaded the F2P multiplayer? Will it compound eith redundant data and just TA up memory space on my PS3?

You can't get the platinum trophy with this because one trophy requires you to complete a co-op game and you must pay for that. All others are obtainable.

See the pick above. I think you need to download 2D movies (3D is optional), single player experience and you're good. I actually did that myself a year ago when it went free on PS+.

Can they make the online pass free too? Pretty please? I have the game on disc but my season pass never worked.

Ah, guess you're right.

Here's everything that comes with this free version.

I'm downloading everything right now it seems. Is there a way to choose what parts of that I download? I mean, all I really need is the "Single Player Experience" and "Single Player Exp. 2D Movies", right? I'm just worried that this thing will shit the bed halfway through and be like, "Sorry, no more room."

They are all separate downloads, you can cancel them separately, via webstore or on the PS3 itself. You don't even need to start all of them at once.

Not only in the US. I can confirm it works in my non-Plus Mexican PSN account.

Maybe change the thread name to North America / American PSN members?

Also, while I will "buy" it, no way I'm downloading it again. I already made my way through the game once, and there's no way I'm downloading this massive thing again.

I've had to go through like 3 system updates. Really hope this is still up when I'm done.
you can add it through the site and I assume it's tied to your acc from then on
also sitting through the updates atm, didn't play my ps3 in ages

funny enough was just last week thinking of buying UC3 ^^

This is Uncharted 3 full game (SP), the thing that was free in EU was the MP (unless I missed the SP being free, too).

I would do that right now but I had EU PS+ for so many years now and I would lose all the games if I switch to US PS+. I should clear my backlog and then switch over, but all these games man.

You can play any games you download to your system on any account, so you don't really lose anything and you can choose which account you want to keep your trophies on.

Really glad I checked GAF this morning. Just grabbed it off the Store online and will download it once I get off work tonight. I'm going to have to clean the fridge out though.

Thanks for the heads up, Tenrius. Much appreciated.

But I meant switching PS+ from EU to US. That means canceling PS+ on the EU account and subscribing on US instead. Canceling the account will make me lose all the games and new ones will start piling up on US account instead.

Any idea why it would tell me "You are not eligible to download or purchase this content" ??? (Canada)

Edit: Nevermind, I think I have with PS+.

Ah, I see. Well, I though "main account" referred to the one you played games on lol. EU PS+ is usually superior anyway, so I wouldn't sweat it.

US only. Not North America only.

It should work for all American accounts, actually.

Not that I've heard of.
I even downloaded Killzone: Shadow Fall a few weeks ago because they messed up and made it free. My account is just fine.

Last gen they made BF3 Premium edition free by mistake lol, their is a speepy monkey at the helm
