Hello again, zombie hunters.
In the last Dead Nation post on this blog many of you asked me about plans for Dead Nation and PlayStation Plus.
I am happy to announce that Dead Nation will be available with a 20% discount to Plus members from day one.
The surprises don’t end here guys: from 8 December, Plus subscribers will also be able to download two free awesome (or fearsome?) Dead Nation zombie avatars: the hero and the heroine.
Here’s a sneak peek:
And by the way, if you are a Plus subscriber and you didn’t download your free Dead Nation dynamic theme yet, make sure you do it before the offer ends on 4 January 2011.
Enjoy!

Meh, I myself a person who doesn’t buy many games on PSN signed up mosly for the free games and the added features. Would of liked if this was free but im not willing to spend money on games when ive alread bought the service unless its DLC. May appeal to others but not me.
Any news on new features for the service soon? One of main reasons I signed up and al little dissapointed by lack of them.

Hello Jaguar,
this is a question for the PLUS team – I am afraid I can’t help.
Keep an eye on the Blog as they post monthly updates ( you will have the chance to ask as many questions on Plus as you wish then then!)
take care

Fantastic offer!!
Been waiting for this game for ages now and the fact i will only need to part with less than ten pounds altogether is fantastic!!
Can you confirm the price for this please, i remember reading 9.99 as the original price, making it about £8 for plus, but i am unsure, please confirm this..
Thanks guys!

SWEET deal
any Playstation Home content planned for the game?
cheers

Good question …. there could be something very saucy in the pipeline… keep checking the Blog for more news coming soon!

@1
this is an outstanding offer, the original price at £9.99 was a bargain imo for such a massive game. Further discounting this makes it a steal. You really should consider buying this, it looks to be a really awesome games and probably among the essential purchases from the PSN!!
I did some research and it was £9.99 originally, making it £7.99 for Plus. Thanks!!

nice one sony, games looking sick…in a good way

How about bringing the game in every region at the same time? Yeah, that what I’d pay for. Sorry, but after years and years Sony is still not able to release everything everywhere at the same time? Not even the most anticipated games… it’s a joke.
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:27 am by Cristina Giuliano
We are going to release the game at the same time in Europe and America.
Ok, few hours difference but that’s simply because in Europe we always publish on a Wednesday while the American team publishes on a Tuesday.I am sure the European fans can wait for very few hours? I guarantee, the game is worth it

@14, its hardly the end of the world, the stores update on tues at 5pm USA (10pm GMT) for NA and Wed (4-5pm) for PAL, why mess up the schedule for the sake of about 19 hours??
Makes sense in my opinion, bring on 1st December!!

Very much looking forward to this game. Just watched some of the gameplay videos last Friday and it totally got me pumped up for this game’s release.

Great, I was hoping the offer would be available from day one. Enjoyed the theme & looking forward to the avatars.
I’m a PS+ day-one subscriber and have, until now stuggled to justify my subscription. Definitely interested in more offers of this nature.
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:29 am by Cristina Giuliano
Surely there will be more coming in the future

Dead Nation looks brilliant.
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:30 am by Cristina Giuliano
I agree
25
Posted on 22 November, 2010 at 7:56 pm by Raonak
I really hope you continue this with other game releases.
Because the problem with plus, is me, and other plus members; when we see a new release we just think “ill just wait til’ its free”.
So.. we end up missing some games we would have bought otherwise.
A discount on new releases is a pure benefit.

Is this offer only for the uk and are there any news about cut´s or not releasing it in good old germany?
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:33 am by Cristina Giuliano
The offer is up for all European Stores but we are still in the process of clarifying what will happen in Germany.
Sorry to keep the German friends on hold, but we must be sure not to upset anybody and make sure we follow the German guidelines on age rating…

awesome!

Posted on 22 November, 2010 at 8:15 pm by cthulhu85
How long will the offer be? I hope it’ll be the entire December month as I’m away at work at the day of release, but will be home in the mids of the month.
Cheers, and thanks for the discount. It’s really nice that this service is getting better and better
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:35 am by Cristina Giuliano
Yes, the offer goes on till the 4th of January, you will still have time to get the game when you are back !

Fudging Awesome, was gunna buy this game any but the PS+ offer makes it so much sweeter, and nice to see we’re getting some Avatars with it.. Personally i think we should get Avatars for every game we buy, even if its one or two, but those ones uptop look awesome.
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 9:36 am by Cristina Giuliano
Yes, I agree, we aim to have Avatars available for most games in the future, they are indeed very popular!

…*speaker repeater*…
And, on this day.
We will band together, in a force greater than all before.
No dead man, will lay his hands on another man.
We will put them down.
And, they will stay down.
“Gee, I wonder how that panned out for ya, Mr Speaker.”
*Linconan kicks door open to alley*
“Hello Mr Speaker and friends”
BRING IT!!!!!
Day 1
Ps. yes i’m a daydreamer :p

Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:26 pm by LittleBigDragonz
Just a question. I have asked all over the place but no-one has given any help as yet so thought i’ll try here.
50Hz / 60Hz from PS3 in UK. How can we Select 60Hz ? My TV supports this but i can’t seem to change from 50Hz to 60Hz from the PS3.?
Also the News Feed that used to be at the top right of the dashboard has gone.? How do i get this back onto my Dashboard please.?
I hope someone will help me out here..
PS. Good news about the 20% off deal. ( As Little Big Planet has been on the PS+ options to download, could we now have Rachet and clanks game please )?>
39
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:30 pm by MrLopes
news ticker you wont get it back cause they have implemented what’s new.. I prefer the news ticker as well but hey SCEE gives us what they want not what we want.
About the 50hz/60hz you can check your video settings under the settings tab.
40
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:46 pm by LittleBigDragonz
Thanks for the reply ( I would like it back also ) made the dash more alive if you know what i mean.
The 50hz/60hz in the setting cannot be changed ? how would i do this to get 60hz please?
41
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:48 pm by MrLopes
Well I wont expect it to return I hope so..
For the 50/60hz maybe one of your fellow country man can help you out..
42
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:57 pm by LittleBigDragonz
Hope so. I have really been trying to get answers for the 50/60Hz question. Maybe someone will know out there and help out getting it sorted.
Thanks for trying to help anyway mate.
43
Posted on 23 November, 2010 at 2:59 pm by MrLopes
No problem @ all… everyone helping each other just a little bit is what the world needs more of..

Hi. How can we contact the PLUS team to give some sugestions?
We should be abble to choose from some games ofered monthly.
I only play FPS and Car race games and never the playstation plus had one for the subscrition.
Also for those like me who have both PS3 and PSP why not having some PSP games included?
I am really thinking on not renewing my subscription.
Thanks.
