I done this deal, the girl in the shop said any game as long as it scans but that anything below Fifa '17 would be a no (it may be different in each store though).
I think I recall them telling me the deal finishes on the 20th too just to keep in mind (may want to check in store on that too)

Going in tomorrow to upgrade.

Called today and was told it runs til the 22nd and I could buy two copies of FIFA16 for €4 if I wanted to use those games!

Does anyone know what the restrictions are on the hard drive? I upgraded mine and whilst I'll try find the old one and replace it again, does anyone know if they'll accept the upgraded drive?

Hopefully a similar deal comes around again at the end of the summer, I want to upgrade to the Pro for PSVR use but can't justify the outlay at the minute. 150 quid with a trade OG in is a great deal!

Picked up the Pro today on the trade in deal with GameStop - except I went for the Destiny 2 Pro bundle. Traded in my original 500gb console with 2 games and paid 190 for Pro and Destiny 2.

Wasn't really too pushed about Destiny 2, but they didn't have any standalone Pros in stock so I went for it. I'll just trade Destiny 2 in or something maybe.

I'm only guessing but I don't think they'll pop it out and look, they will probably only test it to see if it works and let it go at that, they shouldn't even notice if it's 1tb. Anything over the original should be considered an upgrade anyway and better for the future buyer, it's designed to be upgraded by the user if they choose.

Played a bit on the PS3 this weekend Black Ops 1, Resistance 2 and Dead Space 3. Remember playing Resistance 2 back in the day and being blown away by the HD graphics. It looks bad now.
Had a lot of fun on Blops 1 MP. Used to love Search and Destroy, it's a shame about the hackers. It wasn't too bad but couple of games there were guys under the map, killing at will. Don't understand why people do this, surely it gets dull after one game.

IIRC Resistance 3 was by far the best in the series. It was kinda like the newer Wolfensteins in a way

I'm amazed that series never made it to ps4, I remember fall of man being huge.

I was like 50 MP kills off platunming Resistance 2 and then Modern Warfare 2 launched and I lost my mind.

whiterebel

Resistance on PS3 launch was mind blowing stuff. Then Assassin's Creed came along, and i sat drooling at the views of the cities......must give Killzone a run again on the Pro, now that nostalgia has set in.....

Didn't realise it would be Battle royal only, and no zombie mode.

Does anybody know where I could get a PS4 Pro power cable in a bricks and mortar shop in Dublin?

Pretty sure that any PC power cord should do the job. You don't need one made specifically for the PS4 Pro

Cheers. Ended up getting one in PC World, and for free as the only one they had didn't have packaging. Which was nice of them.

Scuff releasing a new controller for the PS4. Looks very good but way to pricey for me. $200 according to the article.

It's only 200 for the wireless version. Save 30 dollars towards the shipping costs and go for the wired option at 170

You get free shipping when you spend over €200 on the UK/European site so I'd probably just get the wireless version of I was going for it.

I'd prefer a Sony made "Elite" though.

The Elite I bought for the Xbox is the best investment I ever made, I have it since launch and it's still perfect. Well over 1000 hours gaming

Yeah, they're really missing a beat with not making their own. Instead we have the 2 "Official" controllers made out-of-house, and seem to be more miss than hit.

The only other option would be one of these

I'd get one of these and pop it into the Elite.
