Tried using Plex through the browser but just freezes on the loading screen when I go to play anything.

It does take a few seconds to load initially but if it still doesn't work, it may be that your router isn't good enough.

Mine is crap too but I have mine wired between the PS4 and PC.

Downloaded Octodad last night, very fun!

How come we seem to have terrible flash sales in comparison to the US?

Would love if we had very similar sales so then I could keep my games tied to my Irish account for the future

Tax reasons I believe is the issue.

Sony have f*cked up massively with the digital release of MLB The Show. I tried to start the download when I got up at 7am, but it was not available for download despite it saying it would be available from 12:01am EST (5am my time). It's now 08:45am EST and apparently it still isn't available!

I assume you are talking about the NA release as it isn't out over here until tomorrow apparently.

Didnt think there would be any market for that game over here.

Watched a gameplay video of the PS4 version last night. It was something like 16 minutes long...

...I lasted 3. It looked like the most boring, soul-crushing, life-sapping experience I could imagine. So yeah, a pretty accurate representation of baseball then.

Wrong. The most soul-crushing, life-sapping experience is being a Cubs fan in particular. Not baseball as a whole.

2015 is our year though

I plan on picking it up, it is a fun game if you understand the rules and the stats, plus Sony have a great track record with the series.

In no mood to fork out money for a new router! Might be what's causing it but it looks like it happens to quite a few people out there. And I generally don't have any issues with online play. Be nice if there was a dedicated app. I guess the other alternative is to pick up something like Chromecast as a stop-gap.

VGP is a better option if u can wait for it about 45euro shipped rather then over 55 on amazon

Yeah all in the space of 1 week. Assuming the game doesn't bomb.

10 - 14 days is not much of a wait

This months famitsu has revealed valkyria chronicles will be re-released on the PS4, 1 as its standalone game, 2+3 as a collection. Doubt it'll make it over here though.

Transistor is out in 2 weeks

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2014/05/06/you-can-pre-order-transistor-and-its-soundtrack-right-now.aspx

Can you not play games on your Irish PSN account that you purchased through your US PSN account like you could on the PS3. I get a message saying something like this application is only available to users who have a license for it; when I try to play a game I purchased on the US store

Dont be at yourself

Make the PS4 the primary console of the US account, and then the content will be available to all users.

They've seem to gotten much better, last time I used them a few months ago it took well over a month for it to arrive!

You must of been unlucky with the order, in over two years and 30 plus games from them only over Christmas did it take a few days longer than usual.

If you're really desperate to play it. Set up an US store account and buy it on there for $60. Works out at around €45. I'm playing it right now!

Graphically, it's a improvement most noticeably the crowd looks a lot more realistic. The new Quick Count feature is neat, it speeds up the gameplay if you like playing the full 9 innings. However, the online modes seem to be a complete mess to me. So if you're getting it for that you may be disappointed but if not and you're a fan of the series or baseball it's quite a good game to play offline

Don't place it upside down! You don't want to have to ring up customer assistance because you think your PS4 is broken.

Not that anyone would do that...

Never unplug the console when in stand by or powered on, always power off completely first. And keep your reciept!!!

If you plan on buying games from PSN and upgrading your HDD at some stage, now would be a good time to do it.

Don't wait until you have 120 GB of downloaded games only to discover that you can't back them up like on the PS3.
Which means you will have to download them all again

Oh, and welcome
