So far this weekend, been playing Assassin's Creed 2, PES 2014 and Sly Racoon HD... Might try to get an online game of Diablo 3 or Borderlands 2 going, that is if I don't decide to just veg out on the sofa playing Persona 4 Golden on the Vita...
I've not encountered the corrupt save glitch yet, but I haven't been putting hours upon hours into the game yet. However I did purchase the Xmas skins set and haven't been able to get that working.
Unless you've already been lucky enough to track down a PS4, you would be daft not to get a PS3 at that price..!! The PS3 has got easily another 12 months left in its life cycle considering its upcoming releases, and the one advantage it has over its successor is it has a huge back catalog of great games.
Minecraft PS3 Edition. Love this game on my PC but multiplayer has always been tricky to set up and I always spend more time on my PS3 anyway. Gameplay just feels right when controlled via Dualshock 3 too...
Not that interested in Battlefield 4, TBH, I bought Battlefield 3 on release, and the season pass, and its one of those games I'll play for a bit online with friends then I lose interest for a bit. I'll probably pick up Assassin's Creed 4 for the PS3, to go with the rest of my games backlog, when it drops in price a bit. Not bothering with PS4 at the moment - kinda got stung twice already by being a console early adopter (PS3 on launch, PS Vita shortly after launch)....
If PS4 supported PS3 game backward compatability, I would already have one pre-ordered. Instead I'm choosing to wait at least 12 months post-launch and see what happens, getting both a PS3 on launch day and a PS Vita shortly after launch has taught me the benefits of hindsight when it comes to commiting early to a new console. I have a substantial backlog of PS3 games to keep me going plus there are still some games worth staying with my PS3 for on the horizon, e.g. GTAV, XCOM Declassified. Probably will end up getting a PS4 eventually, I have always preferred Sony's consoles. For now I'm in no rush and am happy to sit and wait see what happens...
Played the first Jak and Daxter back in the day on the PS2 and really enjoyed it. Never bothered with the other two. Think I might pass on the HD collection....
I agree with Ginkgo's comments... I tend to use PSN for its free demos, recent example includes the demos for PES2013 and FIFA13. I have not been a PS+ subscriber since the free month given as an apology for the PSN hack, I spend way too much money on games as it is.
I do tend to use PSN to download DLC for games and games exclusive to the PSN network, recent examples being Virtua Fighter: Final Showdown, Jet Set Radio, and Tokyo Jungle.
Again agreeing with Ginkgo, I refuse on principle to buy new game releases from PSN, that I can buy on disc cheaper and save my HDD space for network only games.

Re: Sniper Elite III Puts a Bullet in PS4's Unsuspecting Eye Socket
Sniper Elite V2 was a flawed but enjoyable game, in my opinion. Nothing felt more satisfying than achieving a perfect kill shot at extreme range.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 5 Takes the Sandbox Online on 1st October
Think the potential for this is huge... Let's hope Rockstar can successfully pull this off...
