Thumbs up Looking to play? In the UK? Read this!


Planetside, as of today, is in GAME's 2 for �30 section. (or �20 on it's own)
Core Combat is also out in GAME for �20.

Ah, but you can't subscribe you say? To young to have a credit card? WELL NOW YOU CAN SUBSCRIBE!

SONY have finaly relented and now not only allow SWITCH payment, but allow SOLO too! (SOLO is SWITCH for under 18s)

A months subscription costs �7.50
Planetside costs �20, or �15 if you buy another game with it.
Core Combat costs �20
You get a month free with the Planetside box

That means for as little as �15 you can can get up and running!



Spread the word amongst your gamming communites. SONY have finaly seen sense!

Simply select global collect when editing yor subscription.



I look forward to see you all fighting for the Vanu as soon as possible.

I'd expect an American to say that. Basicly it means Planetside has been opened up to the UK big style.

Switch Payments would have been good enough, but SONY have gone the extra mile and included SOLO. That means any 16 yr old kid can subsribe without having to beg his parents to let him use their credit card, he can use his own SOLO card. SONY don't sell GAME cards here, and you cant order them unless you have a credit card, but if you had a credit card you wouldn't need to order one. I'm 21, and I don't have a credit card. I don't want a credit card, and will never get a credit card unless a REALLY have to. SWITCH does it all. Most 16-26 year old are in the same position.

In short, if enough people hear about it, more UK folk will play.
The things that have turned away alot of people I know are:
Massive download of demo, then a further update.
Poor payment methods.

Now the most important one has been fixed.

[edit] now all SONY need to do is get a Planetside Trial onto PCZone or PC Gamer's coverdisk.

You shouldn't be proud of that! I'll quote what a brit once said, "I'm a well educated British citizen, I am not an overweight, uneducated, low-life American."
Yeah, because there are no fat, stupid, smarmy British people. They're all athletes with multiple diplomas and a lifestyle befitting royalty.

Yeah, but our nukes are at the back of Mr Miggins' potting shed and he's closed the allotment for the winter, so the UK is currently a non aggressive power with limited nuclear capabilities (until the Spring, when Mr Miggins opens his potting shed).

Note for the Americans:

Potting shed : Wooden greenhouse
Allotment : An area of land agricultural divided into small individual plots
Spring : Fall
