I assume a hard drive backup will preserve a downloaded copy of a game as well as the buyers account info?

Yeah Google isn't being too helpful here but I can't find any info to the contrary.

And wasn't Ferrari Challenge coming to the PSN? Did I just make that up?

Yeah. You have to restore it to the same PS3 though.

If we get 4 people we might as well merge the two groups.

I'm in for both games. In fact, I came here hoping to find a group precisely these two games.

Who can receive the payment, and make the purchase? If we do it with 4 people it comes around to $18.33 after paypal fees:

$7.50 Tekken
$10.00 Siren

Or you guys want to wait for a fifth person?

If I'm able to put $20 or so directly into the account rather than using Paypal (since I don't have Paypal) then I'm down for both.

If that's acceptable, IM me with the account details (preferably before you put anything else into it)

I think we're limited to using Paypal. You sure you can't make a Paypal account?

Looks like we got our list. After taxes and paypal fees, the total per person cost for Siren is $9. If you all want Eden as well, make it $11 (to avoid another round of paypal fees), and I'll grab it as soon as it comes out. Sound good for everyone?

My paypal address is: jaybird144 AT gmail DOT com. I'll make the account and send out the information to everyone who sends me money tomorrow morning.

Account is created, microserf has paid and I've sent him the account info. Waiting on the rest of you guys now...

Xythar will make a US account and add $20 to the wallet since he doesn't have Paypal. The rest of us can use Paypal to pool the remaining amounts and then the person that collects it can make the purchase.

So, the total comes to:
$69.98
-$20.00(Xythar)
-----
$49.98/4+Paypal Fees = $13.18 for everyone else.

I'm unable to make the actual purchase so we'd need one of the remaining three to volunteer for the collection and purchase.

Sounds fine to me, but I'd rather paypal someone else as I'm in the UK (I'll add one like an extra dollar or two for the withdrawal and exchange rate).

I'll make the purchase if necessary but I'll have to use entropay, and they come with their own fees (I don't know what they are though).

edit: For the record I'm interested in Pixeljunk:Eden too.

5% fee on the money you put in. Note also that as I've just found out, you can't sign up an Entropay account and then use it immediately as they have manual security checks they do and you may be asked for photos/scans of additional ID.

Kengi, I don't know if they will remain in the shopping cart, but I put a few things we should get with our share group later. If you can see it, then maybe we can each use that as a way to determine what our group wants to purchase. Feel free to remove or add to what I put in it.

Currently Stardust HD (with both add-ons), the expansion for Pixel Junk Monsters, and two PS1 games (original Crash Bandicoot and Jumping Flash) are on it. I wouldn't mind getting Tekken down the road, but it's pretty pricey, so we might have to decide if we all want that. Again I will be putting some money down next week.

Also there was a free PAIN download on the marketplace, so I downloaded it for the group.

[edit] Nevermind, the shopping cart was empty when I went to download the next part of Siren.

Thanks. I've signed up for a Entropay card and loaded it with $10 to test and its worked fine.

I don't mind paying for the games if everyone else insists that someone else does it. It's going to cost a little extra though due to exchange rates (your USD will be converted to GBP for me to convert back into USD on the Entropay card) and the 4.95% Entropay fee.

I haven't heard back from them yet regarding my account and I might be going to bed soon, hopefully they will have emailed me by the morning. If this ends up taking too long then I understand if you go with someone else who actually has their method of payment ready

For 13-15$ you can buy Siren, 1942, and PixelJunk Eden (when it comes out) if you can find 4 others to share the price with. It's pretty loving awesome considering Siren is 40$, PJE and 1942 are both 10$.

my dj so bad

just noticed something about siren. if you select the "delete episode" option from the episode selection screen, the following text shows up--

"This action will delete the selected episode (save data will not be deleted). You can re-download the episode any number of times. For details, press (triangle.)"

any number of times, eh? perhaps this means there's no 5-download limit? anyone feeling risky and want to give it a shot?

edit: just read back a few pages and learned more about the sharing system -- apparently the five systems the game sharing account is tied to will permit unlimited downloads for these five people/systems only?
