Just to make sure there’s no confusion; The messaging has always been very clear that Free Realms PS3 and Free Realms PC are the same brand, but they are in fact 2 separate games. The engine, code, and content are similar, but not the same. And while we would like everyone to play together, there are technical barriers and limitations that simply prevent us from having everyone play together and with 1 account. We have of course tried to always be very clear on our messaging about this. In fact there is nothing in the PC game subscription that leads you to believe you can play with that same character on the PS3, or vice versa.

But that said, we all know mistakes can be made, so in the case anyone got the wrong membership or for the wrong platform altogether, they should always contact customer service to clarify this in a timely manner.

@ the response for 5

But did you guys come out and make it sound like that you could? Thats the question.

But did you mislead him? Intentionally or otherwise? And then you come off sounding like your calling him stupid. Who the hell do you think you are?

O yea, you the game with 15 posts, thats who you are!

im interested in knowing if you flat out LIED about that issue… #13 says you didnt, but # 5 says you did…YEA i could google it…but i really shouldnt have too.

It should be perfectly clear…not sound like your calling people stupid.

*scraps this post off his shoe and heads for google*

I hope that’s not keeping you from playing :D I would love to say we have a sale planned in the near future but sadly we don’t right now (you just missed one though). However we do have some exciting news… soon :D

I’m sorry if you felt that was misleading ChaseHammer, at that time you should have called CS and requested a refund. I know some people don’t know but the PSN is its own platform and ecosystem. It’s not possible to run PC accounts on PSN.

No better time to visit Free Realms again than during a Birthday Bash, don’t you think G-Force?

I’m waiting for a sale on lifetime membership. The PC cousin had it for 9.99 for awhile for the lifetime membership which I didn’t buy due to wanting to play the PS3 version. I’ll hop on board once there is a sale or a plus discount or something.

@12

Except FREE Realms is FREE. It is OPTIONAL to buy a premium membership which details what is covered. NEVER said that you would get access to both the PC and PS3 versions of the games with one account.

The game was never promised to have one account for DIFFERENT platforms/systems.

That’s like saying you bought an Xbox 360 version of a game, so you should be able to get it free on your PS3. Makes no sense honestly.

Different servers, different platform. AND this is a Sony game, yes but it is not a “PlayStation” game. It’s a game by SOE that has been published on a PlayStation platform. A different division under the SCE umbrella.

Anyway, gamers and their presumptuous, selfish, and entitled attitudes thinking they not only know the technical side but also the business and legal side of creating games.

Anyway, I’m updating the game now. I haven’t been on in a while, so I’ll let it update overnight. :D

Come on guys. Seriously? You defend Sony’s old mentallity with the way it handles the exact same game/source/assets on two different platforms? Paying for the same game twice or sometimes more, is ridiculous and makes no sense whatsoever nowadays. If they want to survive in this day and age, they will need to create a better software ecosystem like Apple does. Pay once, play everywhere. PS Vita is close to doing that with cross play but I never tried it so I cannot comment more than that.
