*** The Official Playstation 4 (PS4) Thread ***

Stupid question, but how do you know when the game has finished installing from the blu-ray ? Battlefield was playable in a minute or 2, surely that hasn't finished installing ??
 
They don't have to sell you it either. It's a con but always happens especially at Game...

Thanks for the heads up yesterday with the game knack console stock
Managed to order one . Coming today
Had a game pre order since mid august not getting it until phase 2 !!
Work that out ???
Proper joke of a company
 
So mines just turned up... 5 Hours to download 323MB!!??

Are you ****ing kidding me Sony?

I've got 16mb download speeds... this is ridiculous!

Pro-tip.

On launch day servers get hammered as everyone downloads their stuff, the entire EU is effectively DDOSing their servers at the minute. Always download any updates beforehand to a usb stick.

It should tell you with a popup and it will be in the notification area, I think.

I've had launch day Xbox 360's, PS3's, Wii's, PS4's and Xbox One's.

The PS3 was always notoriously the slowest to download things in my household.

The Xbox One downloaded the 500MB patch in about 15 minutes. Whether this is Microsoft's much touted "300,000 cloud servers" or less people on day one, you can decide that for yourselves :p

But 5 hours is ridiculous... it's crashed 5 times now and I need to restart. Shocking.

Really looking forward to getting into this and playing some Killzone/BF and some Knack and Playroom the with girlfriend, but I can't see this happening anytime soon :(
 
So got the mega bundle last night, got PS+, then popped out this morning to get bf4 and ass creed (Mario 3d world also) think I'm all set till next year now :)

It's all so pretty :D

Had a go at nabbing it on your PC to dump on a USB?
 
Just got mine up and running:
20131129_110605_zpsbd6100ab.jpg


I accidently switched it on whilst no HDMI was connected and got three beeps. Something to look out for if you have this issue is that it will probably not be able to detect what on the other end and stops from booting.

Got mine routed through my Yamaha amp to my telly and its booted into the OS fine. Time to whack in the 750Gb SSHD ;)

PS - Made in china
