Is the update a large download guys?

Took maybe 10 minutes to download and install for me, my usual download speed is around 30mbps.

Not liking the new update for notifications at all, I assumed my download for mirrors edge was finished and it was only tearaway downloading but there was 3 things downloading instead including mirrors edge...

Yes, with PSVR you don't need to use your TV anymore if you don't want to.

New to Playstation, long time xbox user, I've just bought a used PS4 with Uncharted collection and ratchet & clank. Anyone have any must buys? I'm holding off on PS Plus as I'm gonna stick to Xbox live for online gaming. Cheers!

Bloodborne is a great single player experience. You don't need the online features really.

That's really down to the individual. Heavy rain in particular is a 'love it or hate it' game, with most people seemingly on the 'hate it' side. Maybe look at a view Youtube videos and see if the style of game appeals to you.

If your interested in that type of game look up Until Dawn as it's underrated imo.

This is a great shout. I had an awesome weekend blitzing through Until Dawn. Similar concept as Heavy Rain i guess but much more fun in terms of its implementation.

Best update in a while.

Here is my one (The Wolf Among Us)

Just downloaded the update and 1 TB extra from my external HDD is nice

I think this could affect resale/trade in value of 1 TB consoles.

Could there be any issues with data transfer over USB 3.0 that would make the built in HDD a better option? Probably not I guess?

J Mysterio

I have this one, which I'd highly recommend:

* Seagate Firecuda

I have it in a launch PS4, but you get even more benefit from it in the PS4 Pro.

USB 3.0 has a higher transfer speed than SATA2.

5GB v 3GB afaik

Although SATA2 has lower latency, for playing games via USB3 in theory should be faster loading.
