    So I tried the internet browser on the PS4 last night. Took a look at Boards and some YouTube videos and a thought occurred to me. Is the PS4 liable to get a virus like a regular laptop or desktop PC? Would it be secure to access my email? Just wondering since the PS4 doesn't seem to have antivirus software (none that I installed at any rate). It's also hooked up to a network involving 2 other laptops. I'm not mad about the browser itself I only used it because I was too damn lazy to switch on my laptop!

    Thoughts?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,062 ✭✭✭shuffles03


    Knack. Any good?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,844 ✭✭✭Snake


    Us psn cards here.

    Really good used them plenty of times. No need for acting the clown with credit cards just use your email and Irish visa debit they email it within the hour. Usually within minutes. Also it's not 50 for 50 or so on its 50 dollars or 20 dollars etc but you see the euro charge so a 50 dollar card is about 35 euro.

    You could also just get a US digital PSN code off playasia, once you pay you get the code within a few hours. I didn't need any other details besides my credit card, no US address or anything. I used one recently to top up my wallet and get Sniper Elite 3 (which is cool) for roughly €35 digitally :D

    So for this to work, all I need to do is have a american account set up and set my PS4 to the primary device for it and PS plus will work on all primary accounts?

    I spent the weekend playing DRIVECLUB, LittleBigPlanet 3 and Minecraft on the PS4 at the Scottish Car Show.

    DRIVECLUB was the E3 2014 demo with three different road circuits, in Norway, India and (I think) Chile. Unfortunately, this was not the build with the dynamic weather effects but it did show off the improved visuals. It looks stunning. But what impressed me more was the sound. I will most certainly be getting the full game on release.

    LittleBigPlanet 3 was a lot of fun. It plays a lot like the previous titles but the floatiness is gone - or at least dampened down quite a lot. In four-player, it is a laugh.

    Minecraft... is Minecraft... this time, on PS4.

    what does floatiness mean? did LBP look much better than on ps3? it looked damn good enough on ps3

    When I say floatiness, I'm referring to the jumping animation. It always felt like you were in a world at half-gravity. The top arc of your jumps always felt like they lasted too long. LBP3 reduces this.

    It looked like it was 1080p. Very clear and the textures were really vibrant. I can't really compare it to the PS3 as I didn't see them sie-by-side.

    With four characters, the framerate dropped a bit but it was a demo so I can let it slide.

    stupid question, but i've not been keeping up with the latest on driveclub. does it have car damage? might be getting the game anyway but much prefer those with car damage as it makes you think twice about taking unrealistic risks while racing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Stylesclash07


    Finally getting a ps4 early next week I'm getting infamous with it. But I also have the ps+ games bought since they started what should I play first on ps+. How about the free to play but hats the best

    Get some Resogun into ya

    Definitely Resogun, maybe Don't Starve, not everyones taste(ba-dum tish).
    Dead Nation is pretty decent too.

    War Thunder(haven't played in a while though).


  • Registered Users Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Stylesclash07


    Cool watch some of that looks good mad to play outlast to

    Anyone having problems since installing the new firmware update? I was watching Netflix on the PS4 last night, but when I went to turn the PS4 off, the home button wouldn't work at all. I tried turning it off using the power button on the front, but it still wouldn't turn off, it just froze. Eventually I had to unplug and reboot into safe mode, which got it working again, but I'm afraid of this happening again and damaging the console. Anyone in the same boat?

    I stopped using netflix on my ps4. It would constantly freeze on my launch console and I constantly had to hard reset the console. I think that is why it broke on me as it did not cool down properly. I had to get it replaced!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭CombatCow


    Yeah there have been reports of netflix issues with this new firmware.

    I noticed cosmetic damage, but no race affecting damage.

    Think I'm going to have to send my PS4 to Sony to be fixed. Still having the disk eject problem. Would rather just get it fixed and be done with.

    Great thing is when u get it fixed your warranty is extend for a year for then!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    I'm not sure if theres anything wrong with mine. Sometimes its very loud, specially when playing killzone, and its very slow when I go onto the menu from dead nation. But it still works fine, so I don't know if its worth sending it off.

    Thank you for answering that. Shame its not a part of it, doing stupid things should be costly in a racing game!

    Just Make sure it's in a well ventilated area, also that Dead Nation slowdown is a known bug with the game.

    Before you do; I had this problem for ages and solved it; put something under the PS4.

    Basically, the Eject button goes under the ps4 a little, it touches the table. The PS4 can mistake this for the button being pressed.

    What I did was put pieces of cardboard under each of the four corners of the console, so its raised about a centimeter up from the table.

    Interesting! I wonder if static electricity has anything to do with the Eject issue?

    Might end up having to do this. Took a quick look last night and thought I'd put the receipt in the PS4 box, but it's not there. Think I read somewhere else that without the receipt you have to pay for Sony to fix it. Don't know if that's true though.

    If you paid by credit card I'm nearly sure your statement can be used as proof of purchase.
