Well yes, that and the slow UI and lack of custom stacking like tv/video has, oh and the buddylist issues with refreshing and loading and blank friends listing, has improved slightly with 1.72 though but can be better.

Not to mention the inability to pause a download!

Only if your super duper into metal gear, so I think.

Nice one, got them there.

Basically crafting materials for your weapons and stuff like that, it also includes a DLC golem character for your party.

howdy all.. so have my money together and am buying my ps4 this week. the order 1884 and last of us turned me on slightly

is 300 for a used console and a controller good value for money?

Grayditch

That's pretty decent, aye.

It is not bad seeing that it will be about €80 cheaper than getting TLOU bundle, you will be waiting another 8 months for The Order though.

you on fifa grayditch? i imagine we will have issues deciding on what kit to use in pro clubs pool or united

DARK-KNIGHT

do you lads all use party chat and play together etc?

Grayditch

I am so bad at Fifa, I do not wish to ruin your experience. Also, I think they deleted Suarez from the game, so I'm on strike

im no great shakes at all but pro clubs is great craic as a team...

ye will get plenty to invest in your team suarez going could be a godsend to strengthen the team

Grayditch

Haha, I was joking. Yeah, I mean I'm so bad at it, I have trouble scoring with Messi.

Grayditch

I'll have a look at pro clubs, sure. I'm getting destroyed in Battlefield here, first time playing in about 4 months.

PS4 Watchdogs Bundle reduced to €419.99 for today only in Argos. Come with game option for €25 e.g BF4.
Good deal imo if your buying.
sorry cant post link as new user

Played me first game of BF4 online last night.... Got absolutely rinsed. Do people actually play using a DS4? I feel like a fish out of water without a keyboard and mouse.

Its a game console with a game controller?

gimli2112

It's been years since I used a k+m. I'd be absolutley murdered on PC. The sensitivity can be important for the DS just mess about in the options until you get a level you are comfortable with. Also make sure aim assist's on, although some will tell you it's wrong, it's a big advantage imo.

Not sure anyone plays with a mouse on PS4.

Grayditch

I finally went back to keyboard and mouse after about decade, and although I know that it is definitely is better for aiming guns... I just... can't get used to movement. It'll take some practice, the same the other way round, I guess.

Aim assist? gimli... gimli!

It's the way us console noobs roll

Seriously people keep telling me off is better. They're....just....so .... wrong:p

I know, I know.. I just can't see how people can accurately aim quickly using stick. A mouse is infinitely better and pointing to a spot you want, i.e a head, and clicking

.ak

Is aim assist available for MP?! That's mad Ted.

They just do it. It's probably like power steering versus the old way, but people still just do it and it works!

Accurately aiming isn't hard when you're used to it, on games like BF4 countering barrel movement with automatic fire is harder than M&K. Mess with sensitivity and dead zone and you'll get there.


I play on a few FPS on PC but prefer console for them, it's more relaxed. And at least on shooters (3rd/1st) I tend to tense my wrist which isn't the best thing to be doing if I'm playing for a while.

Grayditch

Anyone have any idea what Xtravision would give for an Infamous trade in off another game, rather than cash?

cloud493

Their website says €30.

Grayditch

I could only see the deal for Watchdogs, cool, thanks.

hallo dare

Another update file for Resogun today. 500MB +

DARK-KNIGHT

the analogue stick on the dualshock 4 i got is wrecked rubber coming off... will sony ireland fix it?

DARK-KNIGHT

also lads what are the ps4 exclusives right now? any recommendations?

Grayditch

Infamous, anyway.

If you can find Killzone for €20 or less somewhere, I'd give that a play.

tok9

Resogun and Infamous.. Resogun in particular is brilliant. Just a load of addictive fun.

I would recommend getting the DLC too but you might as well play it first and see if you like it.

Edit: Towerfall Ascension and Strider are free on PS+

And regarding console exclusive, check out Transistor. That's all I can think of right now.

If it is second hand and no receipt it is caveat emptor I'd assume.
No harm in calling Sony anyway.

I've had 3 DS4s. One I threw at a wall but I've never had a problem with the thumb pads, on any of them.

One way to find out, but a lot of the time they seem to be giving out RMA numbers and telling people to drop it off at the shop.

I believe there is a Sony place in Amiens street that swap them out, is is Sony Computer Entertainment Ireland?
