PlayStation Store Play 2014 - Rogue Legacy, The Swapper, Hohokum & CounterSpy

It looks like all the preorders are up EXCEPT for PS3 Rogue Legacy...

is it safe to preorder the PS4 version for cross buy? All I want is the Vita version...

Order it on Vita so it counts as a Vita sale in the stats. Especially if that's the only version you're gonna play.
 
This is a silly question, but the wording is a little iffy. So those PS+ preorder prices are just that, for preorders? So let's say I wanted to buy Rogue Legacy a few days after release...it'll be $16.99 at that point, I'm assuming?
 
Preorder Rogue Legacy. Will preorder CounterSpy when I get my PS card reward points at the end of the month. Idk about the Swapper. How good is the story?
 
You guys are nuts. We've all been around the PSN block enough times to know to wait for sales on these games.

I'll get all of these when they eventually become either free, or like $3.59 on some crazy sale.
 
They've put in a couple of shit downloadable games from big companies like that Expendables 2 game from Ubisoft a couple of years ago. I always pestered them to go more indie because I felt Sony needed an answer to Summer of Arcade.

Why Sony doesn't make this a global PSN thing baffles me though. They have a year to organise four games, get the whole certification done across regions and release them simultaneously. Especially as sometimes the games are Sony funded this shouldn't be a huge problem.

I doubt it has anything to do with certification. I'm pretty sure all four games will come out on our store the same week it does on the US store, SCEE are just doing their own thing (and by thing, I mean nothing).

The SCEA "Spend $50 and get $10 credit" promotion doesn't even require any game releases and it's never been done on our store.

Every game falls in price. You pay for the game if you want to play it early, support the dev for good work, or simply feel that the game is worth it at the price.

If everyone thinks like you, there will be no games industry.

I know, I'm just saying, PSN sales get pretty insane, and usually pretty quick for the digital titles. Not saying these aren't worth the money (though The Swapper is pretty pricey).

This is like with any game. Wait and save. However, if you want it day 1 and have been waiting months, how does spending the premium make one nuts? I have holidays for a couple weeks, waiting is out of the question, logically. Waiting to buy Rogue Legacy would be... nuts.
 
with Rogue Legacy set to be come available at midnight I have to say I'm impressed by how well preloading worked on my PS4

it was pretty seamless, just wish TLOU Remastered could have been preloaded as well

I have everything pre-ordered from the sale now except The Swapper which I'm still on the fence about and it's good to know that preloading will just work
 
This is a really interesting promotion. On the negative side, the prices do seem high after what indies have been charging on PS4 to date and I already own the Swapper and Rogue legacy, on the plus side though, 4 great games with two stacking promotions (preordering and PS+) which is brilliant and should continue.

However, the real negative is that it's US only :( Come on Sony Europe, get it together!
 
I was on the fence but decided to grab Rouge Legacy and Counterspy. The other ones don't look like my cup of tea or are more than I would want to pay for them. This promo is really the only reason I pre-ordered Counterspy though, Rouge Legacy is what sold me. I think Counterspy will be cool and I would have eventually bought it on sale later, just not with so many other games in my backlog and being released over the next few months.
 
Wow! I had no idea. That's sweet.

This is what happens when you try to launch it.

Midnight, here I come!
 
Does anyone know how long the Sony Rewards processing time for PSN card takes? It says 5 days but it's just a digital code...

Want to use it towards Rogue Legacy, but would hope the digital code would get processed today. anyone have any experience?
 
Wait, you can preload games on Vita too? In North America?

I wasn't aware of this, I haven't had time to play my Vita lately though

gonna make sure to preload it this evening :) if it hasn't already :O

Is the preloading for CounterSpy up guys? If so, what's the size?

PS3 if possible.

it looks like they allow for preloading as of the Sunday the week it's set to release so we won't know for 3 weeks on CounterSpy

sadly it really does vary, I had a $10 code process in a day before but a $20 code took almost a full week
 
Click on the downloads button within the PSN app, it will be listed as downloadable. You can also set the other three titles in this promo to auto-download, which is pretty neat!

Awesome! Why is this not completely obvious? I guess I'm still new to the whole Vita OS/Store. I couldn't even find Rogue Legacy when I had searched for it.

BTW you just ruined my day tomorrow. I have to train a bunch of people and I'm going to be a zombie and hungover from drinking and playing Rogue Legacy all night...(on travel with nothing better to do)
 
Just got Rogue Legacy on PS4 and Vita.
Not a fan of how the graphics are scaled on PS Vita. Looks ugly because the pixels don't fit Vita's native screen res.
 
I guess it's pretty safe to buy Rogue Legacy, it's not going to be free for PS+ next month or something right?
 
i have a feeling rogue legacy is going to be my new "spelunky"
game is fucking addicting, already, and i've barely played
 
Ready for rogue legacy.

You should determine if the game is worth 15 dollars. Things go on sale and may become free.

Where is the rogue legacy psn OT?

I prefer it to Spelunky, personally. The runs aren't timed and the leveling aspect is far more appealing.
 
Can't believe there's not more impressions of RL from PS people. C'mon!

That info about scaling doesn't sound encouraging. Won't be able to play either version until tonight.
 
Dang, didn't realize the discount for rogue legacy was preorder only. Guess I'm skipping the game now until it goes on sale in the future.
 
there is no preorder on the Vita versions and the discounts end when the game releases

Yep that was another missed opportunity for them. Ended up buying the PS4 version because the Vita store didn't have it, then predownloading Rogue Legacy Vita yesterday which made it playable right away instead of having to wait. Just dumb all around implementation for Vita but I was happy to have it early.
 
Rogue Legacy will lose a lot of sales being above 14.99. But fine, great game. Perfect for Vita. What is the special extra thing they were hinting about Rogue Legacy and Sony?
 
Wow, they really should have upped the font size on the Vita version. Not only because it's occasionally a little hard to read, it just looks like garbage.

The way the graphics are scaled on Vita looks a bit like your avatar, but after a few minutes I stopped minding (thankfully they didn't use some sort of blur filter). Yes, it looks better on PS4, but the game is fantastic either way. Cross-saving and switching between PS4 and Vita works like a charm.

One of the best games I have played in a long time. For me personally, another killer app for Vita.
 
Been playing rogue legacy over the last of us. I usually dislike rogue likes, but the leveling system is brilliant. Makes me feel like I advanced at least. Smart mechanic.
