(see pic below) Lastly, the nDreams Spring sale will be ending after this week’s maintenance, so bargain hunters be warned, this is your last chance to snap up some cut price nDreams goodies!
I'll check out the core update and banish a load of companions to storage, but there's nothing new that really appeals to me this week. Guess I can do some more catch up.
The new companions menu system, whats based on the wardrobe system, works much better than the old system.
Thats easy Kimmy, its just the wardrobe system thats been put to use, but good thing is you can still see and move about a space when using it, like when doing up a personal space. So basically its that system but for viewing companions, rewards and so on.
How big is the discount on the Infinity Pool? Seeing as the mansion cost more than twice the amount of a normal personal space, Im'm not sure I should buy it unless there's good reason for it, other than the fact that I really want it. I was hoping that it was so expensive because we would get the other parts of the mansion for free...
Great. After I downloaded the patch, Home has frozen three times while I was on the first loading screen (with the big Home logo filling up and important information headine next to it) Every time it freezes just as the load "bar" reaches the first corner. Not sure if I want to try again.
Well done again, Sony. Home freezes my whole PS3 every time i try to access the "new" menu in Home by pressing the "Start" button.
Hit triangle on the XMB Home icon and choose delete. After it's deleted when you select the Home icon again it will re-install. You don't lose anything, but all spaces will have to be re-downloaded.
