CEX is right opposite the game near me

Same

It has to be within 1 mile so basically within the same town.

Does the Netflix app for PS4 pro not support HDR/Dolby vision? I'm trying to stream Marco Polo which supposed to support Dolby vision but my tv isn't recognising?

Use your TV app.

I did but for some reason it looks better on the ps4 without DOlby vision than it does using the tv app. And I find the PS4 app more fluid to use.

You need to calibrate Dolby vision independently of your Standard dynamic range settings.

I've not seen any news from CES about 2017 TVs for the game consoles. Anyone know of new TVs to watch out for?

The new Sony 2017 models (the XE93 and XE94 series) are getting specific HDR Game modes with a view to reducing input lag.

Maybe the wrong thread but really debating getting a Pro and a 4K at Easter... how far away should I be sitting from the TV as a bare minimum? Need to figure out if I can get it in a place in my small room that isn't going to burn my eyes out.

Thanks

I think they say 5-6 feet, although I went from a 32" to a 43" on my desk and it looks great to me, I try and sit a bit further back so my eyes don't go square..

I have a 65" 4k OLED and that suggests optimal distance is 6.2 feet.

I sit about 10 feet away when watching movies and approx 5ft when playing games.

That's good to know, last time I literally had it next to my PC monitor and I swear I burnt my eyes out -.- Thanks mate

Wow, that's a lot less than I expected! Thank you for that mate, I appreciate it.

Big difference?

Definitely, Diablo 3 now looks fantastic. Only £15.99 at the moment on PSN.

Someone help me out, I can't seem to find the serial number starting MC on the PS4 Pro box anywhere.

Is this a quirk of UK/EU packaging? I have a 'P' and 'S01' barcode but neither are correct.

I'm told it's at the bottom of the PS4 as well, but I've just installed it all and it's a bugger to get to now!

For registration? serial numbers start 03 and that's what's on the back of the device

Its difficult to read but definitely there on the rear

Is Diablo okay for single player?

Mobius 1 · 11 Jan 2017 at 08:25

Yeah it's fine. I've done multiple characters single single player.

Wizard being my favorites. A bit difficult to start off with, but as soon as you get the "disintegrate" spell, it's a cakewalk. Definitely my favorites class

also, the frost and lightning armour are invaluable!!

Let us know how you get on, i am going to get one also if this works

Not working for me.

Pro connected to switch box.

1/ Pro to Switch box to PSVR, PSVR to TV. PSVR is working and TV recieves passthrough signal.

2/ Pro to switchbox to TV. Black screen. Tried new cables with no luck.

My search continues.

Any deals or such like on the pro?
I've got a VR sat doing nothing and not sure if I can wait until Easter for the price to drop

Panos · 16 Jan 2017 at 22:18

Guys I know not fully relevant with gaming, but how's the PS4 Pro with upscaling to 4K the Blu ray films (1080p ones)?

Doubt will go bellow £349 for the 1TB version, which is it's current price. Possibly hit £380-390 by then with excuse the "brexit".
