PS4 Megathread 3.0

Yeah I meant with the digital ones. Though I know the physical copies have codes on them to identify them, so they could nearly use that but I'm sure that'd be easily tricked. So yeah just stick with the digital ones.

Out of curiosity would the Playstation ever get Early Access games? Or will they all be exclusive to PC... I know they get the games while they are launched fully, with the likes of Killing Flooor 2 I would love to see Early Access being implemented to PS4 but don't think it would ever happen somehow...

It's not viable a lot of the time to do early access on consoles because of the way games are updated on them. It is not as easy to push an update like it is on PC. Each update has to go through an approval process which can takes weeks.

Look at dungeon defenders 2, it is constantly weeks / months behind the PC counterpart for this reason.

They do early access on Xbox One and MS are the worst for pushing updates. I played Elite Dangerous on the Xbone through the EA model. Sony could do it if they wanted to. Basically though you are paying the developers to be a beta tester when they should be paying people to test their games for bugs.

It has already happened over 6 months ago with Dungeon Defenders II, at the time Sony stated they were looking into more releases, it did not go down well the last time it was discussed.

Would have been nice to get Killing Floor 2 EA ... Have it on PC but want it on console to play with mates ... Would also be awesome if they somehow added 4 packs to PS4 but I doubth that will ever happen

Anyways moving on, Rainbow Six Siege is unreal fun... Bumped into 2 fellow Irish people today then when my room mate came back he joined, then the other lad had another Irish friend on so it was 5 Irish men against the rest...

Love going outside of the objective to try and flank them and it paid off this time

To be fair, this should hopefully be considerable at least, with the focus on online gaming with friends, it almost makes sense to do this

Complete novice question here so forgive me, only had an Xbox before...I heard its 50 euro a year to play online with the PS4? Anywhere that does a better deal online?

Online, no. Sony push a reduced price the odd time but I haven't seen that in over a year.

Street stores. You might get reduced prices on the psn cards sold in Argos etc. They come up every so often. The savings are small so I personally don't bother.

Welcome to PS4. We bought a XB1 for the young lad for Christmas. Have the ps4 a year (PS3 before that) and much prefer the layout on psn store despite all the bitching that goes on in here. Easier to find the free PS+ games than games with gold. Other than that the machines are identical as far as I can see.

Keep an eye on CDKeys.co.UK for Xbox live codes. Come up every couple of weeks for around €22 for 12 months.

Also for your free games look at the tiles directly to the right of your last played game on the dashboard. There will be a tile there for Games with Gold.

Is Dishonored any use does anyone know? Its like 15 quid on the PS store with all DLC, not sure have read mixed reviews online!

Taltos

Brilliant game - one of my favourite last gen PS3 titles, very tempted to get it at that price for the PS4

Very good deal imo. Never got to finish it on PS3 and so I got this deal last week. It's the game Thief was trying to be and then some. The only thing against it is that it is on the short side. The graphics are not much better than the PS3 version and the loading times are actually worse but well worth €15.

The second game looks very promising too. They have really expanded the concept of it.

Cheers lads think il pick it up then! Yea i read its more of a port than remaster as some people online complaining about frames etc, thanks though

What is it you are trying to achieve with the splitter?

Some of the power over ethernet adapters come with multiple ports, so you plug one into your modem / horizon box run an ethernet cable from the horizon box into the adapter.

Then Plug the other side into a plug near your PS4 and you can have two ethernet cables coming out of the adapter, one can go to your PS4 the other into whatever your other device is.

I have an ethernet coming from my horizon box to a media player. I never realised there was more than one ethernet output on the horizon box.

If you want to friendship to end, play Helldivers together.

Dying Light, Destiny and Bloodborne are good co-op too but they are online MP only.
