Yep, that game is advertised on the box, more than any other game. Right, time to set mine up

I dont mind that result because its originally a PS3 game from 2013 ported to the PS4 a year later then patched to run better on the Pro. If it was Uncharted 4 then it be a different story.

Hi Fella,
Unfortunately they are offering a pittance everywhere at the moment. Around £100They will give me decent money for my 2Tb Darth Vader SW: Battlefront console but I want to keep that.
I took my 500GB PS4 to Game for the trade-in deal yesterday and matched CEX of £140 and added a fiver.
Can't say I noticed any slowdown from what I played. It ran nice and smooth....
Pardon me but, I presume I can chop some stuff on my PS4 (2tb) to make it under 1TB, remove the 1TB from the pro, use with caddy and backup PS4 to prodrive. Then install the 2tb into my Pro, install firmware from usb stick or whatever and then backup from the 1tb? I cannot think why this wouldn't work.

I think they cocked up big time, but i guess they have also been inundated with PS4 for trade in too.
Probably best selling it on Facebook to someone local.
Oh yeah what a tit. I was thinking I couldn't transfer because it was 2TB-1TB but then if I had to crop some stuff anyway for the backup method...
Edit: Actually that won't help me as I want to put the 2TB in the pro. So sadly it won't work that way.
Also saw the very impressive load times with an SSD in the Pro.

Each console has it's own encryption key, so it's not as simple as taking hdd out and putting it into a new ps4. Backing up via official systems like ethernet is the only way...
I am aware hence discussing the backup/restore method first. It's just a PITA for me as my PS4 has a bigger HD than the Pro (and I wish to use the bigger one) so the ethernet won't work for me.
Could be worse though.

Shoved in a 2TB HDD today, thought would rather do it sooner than later, really don't wanna re download or re copy all this stuff later on when the 1TB fills.
Argos etc do a £60 external which you can open up and stick in your PS4 / PS4 Pro. To buy the drive alone cost around £100. Crazy that it's cheaper with external housing lol. You get £5 gift voucher with over £50 spend atm as well. So good time to pick one up.

I did the transfer from PS4 to Pro around 400GB tuck just under two hours using a CaT5 cable
Ohohohho I almost put an ssd in it yesterday but ran out of time. I'm leaving it stock if there's no trim. The amount of crud that builds up on ssds means they degrade so much they still random access many times faster than a hdd but eventually the sequential read will be worse so streaming data problems or just flat out errors from bad sectors.
Doesn't look gimped to me: http://gearnuke.com/first-ps4-pro-ssd-footage-shows-extremely-impressive-load-times-bloodborne/
It will be fine at first until it fills up and is used lots. The more it's used the worse it will get without trim.
I had my 1tb 850 in mine but swapped to a 2tb mech until more about the Pro is confirmed. The usual in the know types are saying it's similar to PS4 with no trim...
I'm not taking mine apart to find out....
