Does anyone happen to know if symths are open to swap games in bundles?

I just really don't want FIFA.

I just really don't want FIFA.

Surely it would be an easy game to trade on adverts?

Hey I am on my brothers PS4 atm and wanting to play Watch_Dogs is there a way for me to play it on my main account rather than having to sign in as him every time I want to play?... Been wanting to play and get the trophies myself, can you somehow break the lock that PSN gave the game or something?... Seems a bit stupid to me that you pay 60euro for a game on the store and yet you have no right to play it on the same PS4 with a different user...

You can.

Activate the console as your brothers primary system.

Sign in as him and go to settings.

Seems to be a lot of people saying the voice chat has been significantly improved with the 2.0 patch.

Might play Destiny or TLOU tonight just to test it out.

Just messed about with Share Play there with my brother.

He's in Kerry on a crappy connection while I'm in London with an excellent connection.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to connect to him but he was able to connect to me. Just messed about with a small bit of Resogun and Trials and he was saying they were fine other than it looking a bit blurry.

Hopefully I'll get to try it properly with someone a little closer to me


Also, I've got the issue where my console has the orange flashing light. Any idea's how to fix it?

Noob question but how can i get them on my irish account?

Man that share play sounds pretty cool, good way to demo a game if someone on your friends list has something your thinking about buying.. you could even set up a thread for game sharing where people post what games they have and what they would like to try., 2 users agree on a swap and "lend" the game to the other for the hour to test it.

Anyone else having issues with the ps4 not shutting down properly since the update? Mine freezes every time I put it in rest mode and won't switch on again unless I pull out the plug,boot up in safe mode and rebuild the database. Have to power down completely to avoid any trouble.

It is a known issue affecting some owners after updating.

Try it over Wi-Fi, I have never had any speed issues after switching from wired.

ShaneU

I can't use any of the free themes. When I download them, there's a locked symbol and says "to use this content, purchase it from the playstation store" and when I click the link it says "the content cannot be selected at this time"

Edit: reset my ps4 and they work now.

Aside from being a bit quicker to scroll, but not smoother, the ps4s YouTube app isn't as good to use as the Xbox 360s, I find. Hopefully they'll release updates quickly to add more features like seeing views and likes on videos while watching them, viewing descriptions and being able to click on links to open them in the browser would also be a good new addition that I can't do on 360


And the browser is very disappointing. Should really have it setup as a feature where people can basically use it like as effectively as a HTPC with connected mouse and keyboard


Netflix isn't too bad

im wireless atm. ps4 is in my bedroom so cant do wired. never have done it. a user said its a known issue after the update so im just happy that its on sonys end and not mine


i hope they solve it before advanced warfare predownload is available as at this rate, its take at least a week to download compared to a few hours at my usual speed

ItsHoggie

Just had to go into safe mode and install the update again over the pulsing orange light ffs
