The Official PS4 Thread

If you are using wireless for the PS3, try using wired if you can. For some people it dramatically improves wired.

Yup, my router is just like 4ft from my consoles and I get double the speed wired

I thought you sent it in a while ago. I remember months ago you talking about the controller breaking. Call them again, check your spam. When Verizon replaced my phone I too didn't get an email with the info until a day or two later and it was in my spam box.

I think if you sign in on the web see if you can cue the game to download on your account. Or does the ps app on the phone allow you to download to the console yet?

i noticed it was broken months ago, but i haven't wanted to play anything on ps4 so i didn't really care. i should have just done it then.

i contacted them just now via chat and now i have to call in so they can send me the email. they can't simply send me the email after talking to them on chat. talk about shitty service.

I bought the extra warranty through them. I hope I don't have to use it. All they have to do is send you a stupid box with a shipping label. That's good they will replace it at least. My controller has been acting weird lately too.

Reviews look decent for it, I want it but am going to wait, have a huge backlog right now.

One of the reviews I read said it's basically a remake

 

[007ELmO]

excellent, i provide you with 1 cool point(s) for that input so you are no longer zero cool

 

[Rage187]

I heard Strider is Metrovania style, so I'm in.

Stoked for Strider; used to play it on Genesis all the time. What's the price on that one?

I will be grabbing strider, just have to figure out which system to get it on. On a side note, does anyone else think the UI kind of sucks, mainly when it comes to your library? You just have one long bar of all your games, and all the apps show up in the app section, whether you have downloaded them or not. I don't do digital, but for the people that do, it has to be a nightmare to try to find older games that you haven't played in a while. Maybe they will allow you to "pin" the library tile up front at one point and then separate in it the games from the apps.

Picked up the headphones Saturday (yay to free next-day ontrac shipping via Amazon). Work well. Doesn't sound as good as my AKG K702 connected via optical through an amp.. but the convenience factor wins out. Will need to try them in other games.. just Assassin's Creed so far. Not sure if there's a way to burn them in, but I'll have to look into that too.

Isn't this thing supposed to auto-update when in standby if you have PS+?

Why am I staring at a 30 minute update screen for a 300MB system update? Is this a joke?

Thought it just downloaded the update? I imagine it can't install automatically since they always make you agree to something..

All headphones can be broken in over time. Just use them and they will settle in. Not every headphone will be noticeably different afterwards.

My 50mb connection chewed through it in literally a minute

Is that out yet?

Rayman Legends has been out a while I thought.

PS4 (and Xbone I think?) version came out today. The game did come out a little while ago for everything else. At least Ubi isn't charging $60 for it.

 

[007ELmO]

$59.99 is essentially $60.

rayman legends is a superior game.

 

[sze5003]

Yea I see that it is $40 bucks everywhere. I'll think about it, I enjoy those type of games.
