Greetings. I will be your waifu this season.

I don't see what's so wrong with Knack, I don't want to play it myself but...it's a kids game, why should all the launch titles cater to only teens and up?

It's better than giving your 6 year old something like Battlefield...


Got my PS4 :D stepfathers came too, box for his(that they were shipped in) was bit messed up, mine was perfect lol.
Just leaving the controller to charge but loving it so far, sleek and compact and makes like no noise at all.
The light bar on the controller seems cool in videos of it it looked really bright which I thought would get annoying but in actuality it's not controller seems perfect fits in my hands nice and neat.

Damn thing came at like 9am was expecting more 12pm with the regular post, wanted to go stock up on Red Bull and Pringles first >.>

Got BF4 with it too and my stepdad got Killzone so I'll check those out later. EDIT and now he's got me Assassins Creed, wasn't sure about getting that but not complaining :D

Freaking tiny compared to my PS3 with it's extender on too...

Got a call from GameStop today saying that they had a Knack bundle in stock if I wanted it so I upgraded to that and got my ps4 on launch day.

Some thoughts. The ps4 interface is very wavyyy <3.

And you guys were right, the dualshock 4 sits very nicely in my hands. It's considerably weighty compared to the previous controller, so yeah.

Had a scare with it already, though. I downloaded the 1.51 update, and it got to the installing page (which is similar to ps3's one) and when it went to restart, the console hanged. That blue bar kept flashing, despite waiting a good while. So, before I began to freak the freak out, I booted the ps4 up in safe mode and did a restart/reset thingie, and it came back to life then.

I'm actually terrified to use it. But, it is very cool.

Yeah something like that happened to me too, I just put it off manually and the update installed when I put it on again.

It was indeed terrifying.

But everything is good for me now, I'm loving how you can just leave games whenever you want and go on the browser or whatever then come back exactly where you left off, the browser seems awesome too, certainly a big improvement on the PS3's...not that that would be difficult to improve :p

I never actually knew they scrapped the touchpad being a screen, thought mine was broken :errm:
I see their point though, it is kinda dumb having to look down at the controller all the time, for stuff that can easily be displayed in a HUD.
Controller is great though didn't take any time to get used to it.


Played a bit of both games, great so far, BF4 crashed once but I think that was something to do with EA messing up so it quit suddenly, but it saved where it quit so all good.

Not very far in AC4 but....Abstergo seem to make Assassins Creed games now, essentially :o_O: that's...trippy.
Are you a dude playing a game within a game or a dude playing a game within a game within a game...wut.
I wouldn't be surprised if for AC5 at the end they just go f*** it, IT WAS ALL A DREAM, ALL OF IT, IT MAKES SENSE NOW OK.

The first time I loaded up Knack, I got a glimpse of the start screen and then my ps4 shut down itself.

It was...weird.

The HUD is certainly different, but I am getting lost in it.

I paused Knack for the moment to try out the share features. 730MB for 15 mins of gameplay...ouchie.

That's the price you pay for 1080p...all we need is really fast internet connection worldwide(or near enough) now, right now!


Only complaint I have about the console is the disc slot, you can't really see where it is, they could do with putting a tiny LED at each end of it, if you're tired, in the dark or drunk you could end up chipping a disc...though that would take some force but still.
Suppose it'd be easy enough to do that or some other solution yourself(why didn't I think of that)

Anyone checked out Netflix etc on it?
Don't know my friends password or username so I might just sign up to it myself.
Hoping we get Crunchyroll in the UK now.

I've played it on PC and it looks fantastic even on medium settings. Don't like single player though. To over the top. If the player was a cyborg or genetically engineered then it would be more plausible but this whole one man army thing is silly.

Yeah I've played it, it's great I was worried it would be difficult to see s*** since the lighting in 3 is kinda off, but it's been near perfect so far.

It's not as bad as most FPS games for one man army stuff at least but after the first mission the guy you are should definitely have some broken bones at the very least lol, but then maybe they're secretly genetically enhanced, regeneration and all...

Would love for a game to state that just so regen isn't silly nor is one man army-ing the whole game.


Not tried multiplayer might give it a go now after I've had some Red Bull :lol:

Played Resogun for 10 minutes or so, it's pretty good.
I wouldn't get it if it wasn't free but it's still a cool arcade game none the less.

BF4's set in the future right? It wouldn't be that absurd to just mention in passing how soldiers get gene therapy or something to make them all Captain Americas or Rambos. But nope...

Eh yeah it's set in 2020, I guess it wouldn't be too out of the way to suggest gene therapy by then, considering it will be first used like that as a military application.

Although it's kind of dumb for your typical American soldier to get it, like the standard kind of soldier it'd probably be better if you were a spec ops team.
Could still work though.

It's still less stupid than those robot suits they had in MW3 and how a dog isn't just getting shot in a warzone.

Uh-oh....it seems that my PS4 is in the habit of turning itself off randomly. Twice now I've played Knack and its just died. What the actual hell?

That sounds like it could be a problem with the power. Check the cable is in firmly at the back and the plug is in the socket properly.

Or it could be a case of over heating. In which case you probably need a replacement.

Have you played anything other than Knack? Perhaps it's a bug in the game?

Or try putting the setting that switches it off automatically off, maybe it's not understanding that it's not been inactive for however long.

Starting to get in to the groove with Battlefield now.


I don't see how Ghosts could even be competition for it, there's just far more in the game where Ghosts is mostly just graphical difference from the past ones, as if the game was perfect already and that's all that needed changed...

I can't wait to see what Destiny will be like sci-fi shooters should be awesome with this level of tech.
Really missed out on 64 player battles with last gen...

@Pelador; Done and done. Everything seems to be in order.

Gosh, I hope not. I wasn't expecting to get one this soon as things currently stand. I previously had both of my my ps3's(first my fat then my super slim) in the exact same spot for years with no overheating incidents. There should be plenty of space for the thing to breathe and cool.

@Steve; I have, but not as long as Knack. I hope its something like that and rather not a fault with the console itself.

Yeah, I'm gonna try that now and see if it helps.

A quick google search also informed me that it could be due to a network problem as well, which is very likely in my case and in all the confusion the ps4 shuts itself off. I've given the ps4 a custom Primary DNS, gonna switch of automatic turn off, and if my problems persist, I'll simply cut off the ps4 from the internet altogether.

The only bothersome thing to arise from all this is that I was near to getting a silver trophy in Knack, and now I have to start again. Grr.

Yeah I think Battlefield 4 was quitting out because the connection dropped, didn't shut down the console but it was putting the whole game off rather than quitting out of the online stuff.

Thankfully you can start where you left off most of the time :lol:


Console does seem to get a bit warm in the middle sort of area. I might get the vertical stand for it so at least the bottom isn't obstructed.
Or make a vertical stand.
