I successfully logged in through the PS Home technique.

Still not sold on buying Xbox Live Gold membership. Happy PS user.

only account I have on PS network is my DC Universe Online accounts (got 2) but that is about it since I stopped DC Universe Online for some reasons/issues

I did the workaround and managed to log in.

Is DC Universe Online worth it?

Mind you Dust 514 will be free too, if you're interested in playing in EVE Online (PC).

I have been a user of EVE for years. Been inactive for a few years tho. DC is worth it but I reached lv30 quite fast and then well I couldnt be asked to do daily quests for achievements and specific currency to obtain gear etc.... got bored after 3 months basically
