The first of many PlayStation Plus updates go live on February 7th 2012 in North America, and there is lots to look forward to. Plus subscribers can expect many free downloads, including Final Fantasy V and The Simpsons Arcade Game. You will also find a selection of discounts, PSN avatars and new game trials.
LittleBigPlanet has hit another massive milestone this week. The LBP franchise now has more than 6 million user-generated games and levels created by fans and uploaded online to the PlayStation Network.
If you have pre-ordered your PlayStation Vita already, you may be interested in knowing how much the games are going to cost you. The folks over at TheSixthAxis have compiled a list of retail prices for the UK launch line-up. Of course, these are just the guide price so you may be able to find some of the games for cheaper.
You can expect more PlayStation Network maintenance this week, starting on Thursday (February 2nd 2012). The network will be down between 14.00PM until 08.00AM on Friday 3rd of February. As usual, all PSN services will be unavailable during this time. Users who attempt to sign in after maintenance begins may receive the site notification page.
Sony and AT&T have revealed the price plans that will be available to US owners of the 3G-enabled Vita. Originally, a 2GB data plan was announced for $25 per month, but this has now been replaced with a new 3GB data plan for $30 per month. A cheaper plan for $15 per month offers only 250MB of data.
If you are still deciding what size memory card to get for your PlayStation Vita, the below information may help you decide. We’ve collected information on various PS Vita titles to see how much space each one takes if downloaded from the PlayStation Store. In short – the bigger the memory card, the better.
If you are still undecided about getting a PlayStation Vita, you can now try the portable console out in GAME and Gamestation station stores across the UK (over 600 stores combined). Yesterday, I was able to play Uncharted: Golden Abyss at a Gamestation store in Coventry city.
With less than a month to go until the launch of PlayStation Vita, Sony have announced two PS Vita 3G/WiFi bundles. If you were one of the lucky consumers to pre order the PS Vita First Edition Bundle, you will get all the bonuses previously announced, but Sony will also include an AT&T DataConnect Pass good for one free 250MB session, and a PlayStation Network game.
