Question about product key.

Sooooo~~~
Do ps3 ones still work? I know you can't play it but can the key be used?

Assuming they don't expire.....might as well try. Not like any harm will come of it - worst is you get an error message. Not familar with PS3/4 platform in this case - but most PPC's generally have an expiration date of some kind....and are locked to the account they are redeemed on.

PS3 code is specific to PS3, you had to participate in the "upgrade" campaign to get your key transferred to a PS4 key.

Are you trying to get extra sub days? I think I remember you were able to get some extra days if you registered either copy on your service account (PC with PS3 and viceversa). I really can't tell if it works or not, but may as well try and let us know. A_A

I know that if you register a PC code while already having the PS4 code it gives you the "free sub" period at the end of your current billing cycle(I had it happen and was confused as to why I couldn't access my additional retainers...they aren't affected, but since you don't pay for those ~30 days, they become inactive until your next payment)

Snip

I think it worked the same with the PS3 version. If you had the PC version and registered the PS3 version, you would be elegible to get 30 additional days (Like your case, it doesn't include retainers, which must be paid separately).

However, I don't read anything here telling you that you can't register a PS3 code, or anything related to extra sub days (which is mentioned as part of the upgrade campaign, which ends this Dec 31th).

Now that I read this. I wonder if OP wants to register their PS3 copy and upgrade it? Or just get the 30 days?

From memory you have to use the PS3 code ON the PS3. But since the PS3 service is now shutdown will it still let you login even? Probably not (why would it?)

All traces of the PS3 version (other than the PS3 to PS4 upgrade program) have been removed from the Mog Station so personally I'm guessing it won't let you register a new PS3 code (to either try to upgrade to PS4 or to get the free 30 days or both).

But I'm just guessing... if you can find a cheap copy and you're happy to possibly lose that money you could try though?

You don't have to be ON a ps3 to use the ps3 code. Get on yer phone or pc and go input it into the mogstation. If it still accepts it, you can still upgrade that code to PS4.

Just like 7 year old 1.0 codes will still work.

Sorry, but you're mistaken. I've just checked the Mog Station and there's nowhere to enter a PS3 code. You can't even enter a PS4 code as it specifically tells you The product code cannot be registered via the Mog Station and goes into more detail saying about how you have to login (on the PS4) to add it to you account. Only Windows or Mac codes are accepted on the Mog Station.
