take USB stick, stick it in USB port, find video you want to transfer, hit options, choose "copy to USB storage"

Anyone get a Playstation TV? What do you think?

I'm also a little curious about this, especially regarding the latency. I watched a few videos on youtube showing gameplay awhile back and it seemed like there was slight lag between the PSTV and the game regardless of hardwire or wifi. If that latency is enough to throw me off on games like SoM, Spelunky, Pix, or any other relatively time-sensitive games I'm going to skip it.

I got one and I really like it so far. It probably really depends on your use case though. I got mine to be able to play some games on my bedroom TV which doesn't have any consoles hooked up to it. Games like Spelunky and Peggle and SOTN running on it natively are really great (as good as on a Vita, if not better since you're using the more comfortable DS4 controller.)

I've tried a bit of the streaming and it seems perfectly fine but there probably is a slight bit of lag that could make the controls in fast action games annoying. So far I've only used it for slower non-actiony things, like searching for collectables in Shadow of Mordor and Sleeping Dogs. It probably wouldn't be great if your only intention with it was to play streaming games and weren't interested in the native Vita games.

The latter two play natively on it, so no lag worries there.

There's a stream of Lords Of The Fallen on Live From Playstation. The animation is crappy and it looks like a cheap Souls rip-off. I always had suspicions because these cats made Enemy Front.

It is a huge Souls ripoff down to the names of stats (they call it "Poise" just like Souls) but I watched Epicnamebro's video and it looks like it does do some original things.

He's a huge person in the Souls community and even worked on the Dark Souls 2 strategy guide. He seemed pretty positive about the game so I'm cautiously optimistic. The thing that the game will definitely be missing is the amazing world building that the Souls games have and I think that is where other developers who are trying to ripoff FROM Soft are going to be missing the point. The things that keep people coming back.
Another thing is customization. People love to play Souls games several times through as totally different characters because it feels like a totally different game each time. In Lords Of The Fallen you can only play as Angry Bald Dude. You can't change sex or appearance or anything other than your armour. It also looks like the game wants you to play as a huge, slow moving tank.
It's a neat experiment and I hope it turns out good and I'm excited to play anything remotely "Dark Souls" so I'll probably pick it up eventually. I'll wait and see how people respond to it, though.

I pre-ordered Lords of the Fallen with the E3 deal but I'm still on the fence about it. I ordered it because I'm craving a next gen Souls game but now I'm thinking it could become very average. Who knows though, there's a chance it will be a hit.

Weird question, but to anyone who has played Pix the Cat, is the in-game music incredibly loud or is it just me/my setup? Especially the music in Laboratory, it seems way louder than it should be and I have to turn the volume on my speakers lower than most other games. Just wondering if its like this for everyone. Really enjoying the game more than I thought I would though otherwise, especially now that I've opened up the other game modes.

Don't let the janky look put you off. It's a solid puzzle game with great music and tight game mechanics. The first one is really good, too.

If I had something bad to say about them, it would be that I wish there were more puzzles.

Sony hosed up my PSN account in a good way.

I accidentally added both Destiny and the Delux edition to my account and spend 150$ instead of 80$ that I wanted to spend. I chatted with PSN support and they said they would credit me 60$ back.

They gave all 150$ back and let me keep Destiny. :v:

That sounds ok? There are no rental options left in my area. Blockbuster annihilated the competition then shut down and redbox never started.

That Lords of the Fallen breakdown was hard to watch as that guy got really aspergery and awkward. However it had some good looks at the game (when it wasn't just awkward talking head on a black screen for far too long) which lead me to believe it may be good fun as a Gamefly rental.

Nah, the DLC perks are fun and can help out very specific builds but none of them are necessary.

Do any of you have experience taking your PS4 (or any console I guess) through an airport in your carry-on? I'm moving across the country this week, and I'm trying to decide between boxing it up and shipping it by UPS, or just taking it on the plane with me. I don't want to put it in my regular luggage because I feel 100% certain it would get stolen or broken that way.

Don't see any reason it wouldn't work. Just make sure they don't gate check it and it should be fine.

Does the player character in Lords of the Fallen smolder with generic rage? That's very important to me in video games.

edit: holy poo poo Disgaea 5 demo over on the Japanese store. I assume it will look just like the PS3 games though, which in turn look like PS2 games but with higher resolution everything.

I have taken it on as a carry on twice now (brought it with me during a summer internship). I'm not sure I needed to, but I sent it through the x-ray as if it was a laptop and everything was fine. (It even fit in a laptop sleeve I have for padding and my laptop bag as a carry on, Its still surprising how small it is).

I'm not sure what you are worried about.

My PS4 wireless worked fine for about a month, but over the weekend my internet was acting up for a few hours (really slow, like 28.8k slow) and now the PS4 can't connect wirelessly anymore because of signal strength or something. Has anyone had this happen? I could wire it I guess but the wireless was fast and smooth before then.

So is Omega Quintet (demo up, PS+ exclusive I think), until you figure out the combat system which is great, totally what Compile Heart should be doing - building systems and selling them to people who can make better games. I'd buy it just for the combat system if I wasn't busy with everything else and awaiting GTA5.
