Slug Posted Monday at 07:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 07:56 PM Remember when ads were used to subsidize cheaper/free services and hardware and the expectation was that paying full/premium prices for things would mean you didn't get ads. It's gone from "I'll let you show me ads in exchange for cheap/free services" to "I'm now paying you to serve me ads". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyHell Posted Tuesday at 11:45 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:45 AM Apparently this was some kind of bug? Or that’s what I’ve seen elsewhere. also, did PSN go down on anyone last night? Apparently there was widespread outages. I was playing SM2 on PC, so I didn’t notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me,it was the typical “I finally get to sit down at 10pm to play a game for an hour” situation. Didn’t connect, went to the PlayStation reddit and saw it was on fire so I knew it must have been major. Then I just watched football instead.

DarkStar189 Posted Tuesday at 12:33 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:33 PM The best ad I saw the other night was on the PlayStation Store on the console. Big banner ads for the PS5 Pro. Click on this one to experience the power! Click on this one to experience the super duper resolution! No matter which one you hit, it just brought up a QR code to scan with your phone. Lame.

Paperclyp Posted Tuesday at 02:24 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:24 PM This is the least of my worries on that garbage ass store. There's like a sale on FF7 Intergrade but I can't even buy it because of their stupid glitchy connections to like their premium service. It literally won't let me purchase it, just wants me to upgrade to their plan. And I've looked into it, it's a glitch that they don't seem to care to fix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
