You can't change a PSN account name, so make sure to get a new one before you activate ps+.

Speaking of, will Bloodborne require ps+?

Yup, requires PlayStation®Plus membership to access online multiplayer

Which isn't listed on US PSN, interesting.

I keep going back on forth on whether I'm going to grab a ps4 + tv + ps plus subscription for this game. It looks awesome... But that's a lot for one game and there's literally nothing else exclusive that I'd use it all for.

No that game data is very much real and is in the DeS game files. Many people have started breaking into it.
The actual level data is hosed and the spawns don't have AI and there's no archstones or bosses (I think Vanguard is at the end but he just stands there) but its totally real, un-finished game data.
There are archstones actually, but it's a different model than the regular one. The AI not working is partly my fault, hopefully I can figure out what's wrong.

As an fyi, the guy who uploaded that video (Sanadsk) is not the most trustworthy source. He uses information without giving credit and has outright lied about things. That video's probably accurate but it's just something to keep in mind.
The area is real, the biggest issue with Sanadsk's video is that it's rendered with some model viewer and not in-game, and he added a bunch of stuff that isn't actually there in the game data, such as the snowing effect.

The man himself! I remember talking to you about messing with Farcry3 DLLs (and using your sweet sweet mod)

That' be pretty cool if you could get the AI working on those enemies, although I don't think there'd be much to it? Seems like the whole zone is still extremely unfinished.

Its rad as hell though that you were able to break into the land of giants period. Console hacking always impresses me more than PC hacking, although I guess that's just because I'm familiar with how to do it on PC but not on console.

Are you planning on playing Bloodborne, and are you going to try to explore game data and or hack Bloodborne? I guess PS3 is pretty wide-open these days but PS4 not so much.

Until the PS4 is broken to expose game data, that won't happen.

As others have said, this commercial is probably intended to get to the non-Souls fanatic and specifically avoid the Souls angle because the #1 thing non-Souls people know about Souls is "it's hard",

Which is weird not to include it, because that's actually literally a selling point and Bandai Namco's advertising core for the Souls series, none of the "prepare to die" propaganda exists in Japan.

That "prepare to die" was Bamco's campaign may be a big reason why there isn't a hint of it here. Also "it's hard" may have receded as a good selling point from Demon's Souls to now. The people who like it because it's hard are already part of the fanbase. I am going to guess they're now trying to catch people who are interested because of the not-slow, not-medieval setting and because of the guns. We'll see eventually if there's a longer launch trailer that pulls quotes about brutal/unforgiving combat or not.

Pre-ordered the game, can't wait for the end of the month. Considering the idea of taking a few days off for it, to be honest.

The PS4 itself can capture varying lengths of video and auto-records every 15 minutes of your game (check the "share" menu in a game sometime to configure this) so technically everyone can record you. :v: It's a nice feature. The PS4 recordings are 720p with some compression, so a capture card is still king, but it's nice if you can't drag your PC over to do all that.

This is the only place I'm sure about for it:

It also gets the fedora skin which is advertised elsewhere as an EB exclusive. :psyduck:

Anyone have suggestions for where to order bloodborne, for some silly poopy pre-order junk or otherwise? I live in north america, so I assume something like gamestop might be my best bet, unless amazon has it cheaper or a better pre-order item.

both gamestop and amazon offer this. So I guess, what does the NA collector's edition have? Amazon didn't list anything.

Gamestop is the only NA one with 2 different skins (its exclusive bandages skin and the top hat that apparently comes with any preorder anywhere in NA).

Only Nightmare edition comes with a skin (and it's Top Hat, which you get for preorder in NA anyway). The Collectors Edition has nothing special as far as in-game bonuses. You get it for the artbook and your crappy digital ost coupon.
