    Should have went with simple old grey or white PS1 colours

    Yes, translucent blue is just awful.

    The limited edition PS4 that had the PS One style was awesome however these special edition PS4's lately are shockingly bad.

    That PS4 Pro sounds good, but then you watch the video and see how rank it actually looks...

    Yep. I don't know why these special editions always look so much worse than the normal ones. Surely it's not that difficult to design something that looks different AND good.

    Was lucky enough to win one of these when they came out. Only 20 were given away in Ireland.

    Still have it :D

    I think Gamestop are out of stock at the moment. I'd say adverts or CEX is prob your best bet to get two cheap games.

    No dlc is being worked on at the minute so I don't think there's much of a chance.

    Aye, good on them for that. Would work better if it wasn't a F2P card game though. Let's see them do that with Fallout 76, that would really stick it to Sony for being so draconic with cross platform.

    They tend to get a pretty bad rep, but I have to say my experience of Sony customer service was excellent this morning. Bought DLC for a game on the wrong account and phoned to ask for a refund. Hadn’t started the download yet which I think was in my favour regarding their T’s&C’s. 10 minutes to answer my call, which isn’t bad for first thing on a Monday morning.

    was then dealt with in a very friendly manner and my issue was sorted after about 10 minutes as it was the first time the guy had dealt with a season pass refund issue. I’ll offered to refund to my card or SEN wallet. Chose the wallet option as there’s something coming out soon that’s caught my eye.

    Very impressed. Though I suppose it’s possible I’m an outlier in regards to good service.

    Really? I assumed after PUBG sued fortnite that they were the first to do it even though the idea was not entirely new to begin with!

    I think it was specific things within the game that they tried suing Fortnite over, like presentation and using a frying pan as a weapon.

    PUBG sued Fortnite saying they copied their IP with the Battle Royale mode, but that suit was dropped.

    The frying pan suit was against mobile game developers.

    Regardless PUBG corp are sue-happy to try and stop any competitors.

    My brother went to Gamestop to trade his PS4 against a new Pro. Because he had opened the machine to clean the fan they wont accept the PS4.

    Is this normal practice for GameStop? Anyway around it?

    Thanks

    Were the labels removed from the back? It's standard practice to not accept as no way of knowing if the console had been modded or not. You can buy replacement labels, same thing happened to me

    Thanks for that, just googled it and they are not expensive.

    I'm thinking of upgrading to a Pro, just have a Fortnite question before I do. When I downloaded Fortnite I didn't link it to Epic Games and have since set up an Epic Games account so my nephew can play it on my Switch. Both accounts use the same email address. Would I be right in assuming that my PSN login can carry over to a new console without losing progress or linking to the Epic account?

    No, progress will not move between consoles.

    Edit: actually, when you say carry over to a new console, do you mean to a new PS4? Or to the Switch?

    If it's to the Switch, then your progress will not carry over. If it's to a new PS4 and you haven't linked your Epic account, then I'm not sure if progress carries, but I imagine it should.

    A new PS4.
