Will it play .MKV files? And read external hard drives in the HTFS format anyone know?

Nope. No use of external storage, and no media playback bar blu-ray. Should get it next patch.

In what way is Battlefield 4 more ambitious than Battlefield 3? A few new game modes...

Amazing graphics.

Next gen.

Knack, Contrast, Resogen.

Old Gen, or no gen!

Battlefield has good graphics.. it's more what you can do with the environment that I find impressive. It's not even close to other "Next gen" games in terms of graphics.

Contrast ya.. as that is on current gen. Haven't played Knack.

Resogun - 1080p and 60fps and best of all you can actually play the game without being kicked back to the UI.

The Killzone single player campaign and it's graphics seem to improve the futher into it I get. I was a bit disheartened with it at first, but now it's headed in the right direction, for me.

DLC is typically region locked. So you'll need to buy from the US/Canadian store for your US/Canadian game. Ran into this issue with FIFA's online pass a few years back, just wouldn't work on my Irish account. Signed in with my Canadian one and it worked just fine

I have a US BF4, working with no issues, no online pass required anymore though, I'll just buy Irish premium and use it on it....

It MAY not work. It probably will, but it might not

So we'll have a media server sometime soon you think?

Do you folks know if there's any issue using a foreign (european) vita over here? is there any kind of restriction like a region lock of games/console/accounts?

Thinking of picking one up as the rumoured ultimate bundle prices are not great at all

I'm using a Vita I bought off Amazon Germany. Works perfectly fine. Accounts are per memory card, so swapping between accounts is a bit awkward as you have to do a factory reset of the console to switch accounts.

COYVB · 30-11-2013 7:11pm

Vitas are vitas. They'll work anywhere

SlickTalker · 30-11-2013 7:33pm

Anyone know how long that trade in a game and get another for 20 is going on for at gamestop

Yeah they've disabled the ability to redeem any vouchers because of the problems they're having at the moment.

Try redeeming the code on your PS3, then downloading any extras on your PS4.

Sony has officially confirmed the ability to redeem codes has been turned off until further notice

Yep, I've tried to redeem the Uplay one a few times today just to see but it hasn't worked. The EU blog had an update this morning that they were still working on the issues and vouchers were disabled. There's been no update since though unfortunately.

In my opinion Killzone is ****! Not happy with it at all, PS4 however is absolutely astonishing, love it!

prettyboy81 · 30-11-2013 8:10pm

Finally got my Plus account activated

the campaign is worth playing imo

Hey guys
Will my phone headphones (with a Mic) work on multiplayer games?

MarkY91 · 30-11-2013 9:24pm

i find it ridicilous that it doesnt say when a friend comes online. annoys me so much!

i know having 2000 friends, it would be annoying but an option to turn it on for certain friends would be handy. ill be shocked if its not added in a patch

Actually yeah, i miss that.

Accessing the store is so incredibly fast. Going to be rough going back to the painfully slow PS3 equivalent when needed!

Redzer7 · 30-11-2013 9:29pm

Selling my PS3 tomorrow :-( gonna miss it, hopefully have some great times with my PS4

If it's at all possible, keep it. Seriously. There's still lots of good stuff to come - not least already announced stuff like Dark Souls 2 or Persona 5.

If you can't afford to keep it, I'd almost definitely recommend holding on to it for a while rather than buy a PS4 now.

TeddyTedson · 30-11-2013 10:03pm

I can't play any plus games because it says im not connected to the internet even though I am

Even the test says I'm connecting.
It says it can't verify the license. It shouldn't have to check the license every time to play surely

I've the PS4 already just selling it to fund a few games on the PS4 (NBA 2K14, NFS, and a new DS4 controller) it'll be missed but roll on the next gen games :-)
