ngeunit1 is right. The reason we create a new account for each share session is just to keep things nice and tidy. Now when you do the share you're going to have to temporarily hand over your main account to someone else so for the time that they log in and grab the download they'll have access to everything. Creating a new account for new shares gets rid of that hazard.

It isn't necessary to create a new account just to share one or two games with someone. If you've already purchased a game I want and I already purchased a game you want, what would be the sense of creating a new account to share? The best way in my opinion is to find someone that has games you want and vice versa so you can just share your entire libraries with each other. This is the way another Goon and I have it set up and generally we trade off on purchasing a game and let the other person log in and download it too. Between the two of us my PSN game library is rather large. For things like Siren and Qore though, we have a separate account for obvious reasons.

In short, if someone has a game you want and is willing to share, you both will wind up with complete access to anything either of you have purchased, and in the future you can trade off on what games which one of you buys.

I'm also looking for people to get the Buzz: Quiz TV expansions, if they would be share-able. I enjoy the game and would like to get the sci fi and video game ones. I'm either way on the National Geographic, cause I'd be horrible at the questions...

I'm down to get the Buzz expansions if we can get 3 other people that are actually interested. I wouldn't mind getting all the expansions if we can split the total between 5 people.

All 4 quiz packs cost 25.96 making it 5.20 per person (before tax). Not a bad deal for over 2000 more questions to play with since each pack claims to include over 500 new questions each.

By the way, are the add-ons incorporated to the overall questions, or can you just play a video-game round, or a sci-fi round?

You can count me in for the horror and video games ones at least.

Go for gold and just get them all. The game is so much fun, adding so many more questions will just increase its longevity. If you're down for all we have 3 so far making it 8 and change for all the extra questions which is still a great deal.

Just so it's more organized I'm going to call out again to anyone that would be interested in scooping up all (or any) of the BUZZ Quiz TV extra question packs.

So far we have

As previously stated, all the packs together cost around 26 bucks and it would be like 5 bucks each for what is promised to be over 2000 extra questions. Anyone with the game should consider it a nice deal and jump on!

If all the packs are $5.99 like I think they are, then it should come to 23.96 cause I have the ID registered in PA and there's no tax on games there.

So it's $4.80 each if we get 5 people and are going for all 4 packs. Not bad if you ask me.

The National Geographic one is 7.99 but still, fairly priced and even better if we get more people. Should we set a deadline for if people don't sign on so we can just go ahead and get it with just the 3 of us? I'm itching to get more questions.

does anyone know what the SHARE USE is based on?
Is it based on how many hard drives it has been put on or some kind of Playstation Hardware ID?

reason for asking: I'm about to swap out my HDD for a 320gb. I'm part of a couple share groups. If I'm one of 5 people in that group, will redownloading the game from the Share's "Download History" onto the SAME PS3, but with a NEW Hard Drive, constitute a "Sixth attempt, too bad sucka!"

To be safe, why don't you just deactivate all the accounts on your normal hard drive. Then when you install the new hard drive you can set up your PSN account and go into settings and reactivate everything. Just like when you have to send in your PS3 to Sony to get fixed. I've had the honor of having to do that twice already. You should be fine if you do it that way.

I wouldn't mind if there were so many movie based DLC packs if they were incorporated into the general theme of "movies" when you chose a category at the beginning of a round. I almost never get the choice of "movie buff" anymore and instead have to choose between Safari, Horror Movies, etc. I would like for the DLC stuff to just be incorporated.

I might be interested in Burnout. I have it on disc already, if I start playing the DL version that means I lose my progress right?

Ah, didn't know that the Burnout group would fill up so fast and now the decision is on me! I guess I'm down, can't cost that much anyway and being able to load from the HDD would make me play more often. If at the very least I trade in the disc version and get back what I paid to be part of the share, then I guess you can say it was worth it anyway. I'm in. How come I can't find for the life of me how big the download is though?

Alright so I have to apologize to those involved in my gameshare because as discussed I would have been down for add-on packs for Blast Factor since it wouldn't cost too much extra. However I only purchased the standalone game because guess what seemed pretty impossible to find in the PS Store? The loving add-ons that's what! But from the Blast Factor menu there is a "Blast Factor" store where you can purchase the add-ons. It is really a crock of poo poo because the game itself is 9.99 and the bundle with all the add-ons is 12.99, but the 2 separate add-ons without buying the bundle comes to 7.98 making the total price fuckin 17.97.

I did look around multiple areas of the PS Store to try and see what was available and it only showed the standalone game so I'm sorry to those in my group for kind of screwing us out of the bundle where we could have saved some money.

edit: gently caress me, I check under Bundles and it's the first god drat listing. I really swear I looked there before. I'm pretty pissed off at myself now.

edit2: I guess if everyone wants the add-ons for Blast Factor it will come to like a dollar and a half extra each. Which is not too bad but it would have wound up costing us like 60 cents. Maybe I'm getting too worked up over nothing because it's a minuscule difference, I'm just annoyed that I actually looked and passed right over it.

So since everyone is down for the expansions I'll probably buy them both tomorrow afternoon. According to wikipedia one pack is 4.99 and the other is 2.99, making that a total of 7.98 and 1.60 each, tax will be a bit extra.

I have to say I'm all for added extras for Blast Factor, I'm enjoying that a lot more than Soldner.

To be quite honest I have plenty of fun diversions to the point that I really don't want to spend even a dollar on GTI. Magic Ball and Cuboid seem like fun, imaginative, creative diversions instead of just a rehashed racer. I don't mean to sound like a dick or anything but I really got no enjoyment out of that demo at all.
