PS4 Megathread 3.0

Doodah7

I remember playing it on the Dreamcast and got about 2/3rds of the way through it and pretty much ran out of ammo before a boss fight. Gave up on it and, even nearly 20 years later, it annoyed me so much that I will not get it on a modern console!!

Anyone having issues logging in to Playstation?? Can't seem to connect to Network. I can use the PS4 browser to connect to the web. Strange.

PSN outages on and off since last week
Load of ****e but not that suprising

This particular issue was down to eir though, not PSN. There was loads down, couldn't access a lot of apps on my phone, but basic internet was fine - Fortnite on the Switch wasn't working for my son either, but Sky/Amazon Prime were working on the Xbox. Bit of a weird one.

Example1989

Only experienced one PSN outage the last few weeks when Fortnite was updated, not sure why anyone is saying it's been on/off recently.

Sony have announced limited edition Spiderman PS4 and Pro consoles for the upcoming September release of Spiderman.

https://blog.eu.playstation.com/2018/07/19/introducing-the-limited-edition-marvels-spider-man-ps4-pro-and-ps4-bundles/

There are also console bundles of the regular black ps4/pro and Spiderman game.

I'm in two minds over the dezign - I like the bold rdd and white sigil on the console but feel the white sections on the controller make it look half finished.

Wonder will Gamestop have a Pro trade in deal...

Pretty much all custom PS4 designs look awful imo. The PS4 is something that is shoved on a shelf for the vast majority of people so the design is lost anyways

What is going on with these designs, God of war and now Spider man.

There is a crazy amount of class designs they could have come up with for both.

I love the spiderman one but I might be a bit biased. Very very tempting but doubt I'll be getting a 4k telly til next year so will only go for this if Gamestop have a good trade in deal.

The Darth Vader one is class. Very high quality look to it.

How have people been finding the supersampling mode on the pro?

From digital foundry video had a quick look at it seems to be a mixed bag.

Any trade-in deals for that Spider-Man PS4 Pro?

I love the design of it. Although I am a big ass Spider-Man fan...

They probably won't announce the trade in deal until closer to release of the game

I presume none of us here had any luck with the Days of Play competition or were winners announced yet?

Was in st Stephens green today asking about the current trade in deal (a ps4 and any two games with a scan value plus 99euro for a pro.)

Was told this can be upgraded to the god of war edition but would cost 180 instead of the 99. She also said a similar deal would be coming for the Spider-Man console when it comes out.

Also I think if you have a pro to trade rather than a standard console it will cost 70euro.

Zero-Cool

I was thinking 180 might be a bit much for an upgrade but I suppose it does come with the deluxe version of the game as well.....

Still haven't heard anything or had an email. It did say winners will be notified 2 weeks from the closing date which I think has already passed.

I hope they actually tell us the correct answers for those ridiculous questions!

Yeah, was in my local Gamestop asking about it after I posted that. Said they might be doing something similar to that. He said the last time they did it (for the GoW PS4) it was 50 and that's what he's expecting to come back.

I did this and I can use my TV remote in the menus and on Youtube, Netflix, etc.

Yeah I have the snap remote, it's brilliant.

Not sure if that's the best price but the remote is top notch.

I'll second this.

Decent remote, haven't came across any issues at all.

In all seriousness, that's an absolute steal. Fantastic game. Great story if your into the Post Apocalyptic stuff. Well worth a play through at that price.

I probably shouldn't have, but £20 is £20 (or €21 when you factor in the exchange and all that.)

I think joining this section of boards is going to bankrupt me..

Thepoet85

Had to pick that up at that price. Can add to the collection. Thanks for the link

NHL 19 open beta is live for this weekend. I couldn't find it on the store, had to search on the web version, 'buy' it, and then go to my library on the PS4 and download from there. 22 fecking GB but can make your own player and play online modes.

Zero-Cool

NHL 19 is actually a great laugh. Only online modes after you create your character and I didn't know what was going on but it was a lot of fun, definitely recommend giving it a go.
