Nolan Posted August 23, 2016 Posted August 23, 2016 Since all videos are being taken down, the controller has slightly revised greys and you can see a part of the light bar through the touch pad, which is pretty cool because it means you can actually see your own colour.... Wonder if it has a better battery life and more durable analogue sticks. Ugh. Fuck that lightbar. I play in dark rooms, and on the lowest setting its still blindingly bright.
drahkon Posted August 23, 2016 Posted August 23, 2016 Ugh. Fuck that lightbar. I play in dark rooms, and on the lowest setting its still blindingly bright. Yours must be very bright because I barely notice the light on my DS4...it doesn't even reach a wall that is more than 50cm away.

Also a wireless dongle for PC and Mac users to use the Dualshock wirelessly . Btw if you're looking at this right now and thinking "perfect, I've always wanted a DS4 wireless dongle, how soon can I depart with my $25?", then you should know that a <£1 bluetooth dongle does the job fine with some free third party software.

Also a wireless dongle for PC and Mac users to use the Dualshock wirelessly . Pretty surreal to think that there's now an official way to play Playstation games on PC! How long until we get Playstation Now on Xbox One/NX?
Shorty Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 It's not that crazy really. Even before Sega went officially multiplatform they had PC games. Remember PC is not a "platform", the way it is with a console, you don't need to adhere to someone else's license requirements (except the usual engines/APIs etc but that's not going in the pockets of competitors) to release your PC applications.
Ashley Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Pretty surreal to think that there's now an official way to play Playstation games on PC! How long until we get Playstation Now on Xbox One/NX? Just before Nintendo go third party
Nolan Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Got an email the other day, PSplus is raising its price $60/year $25/ 3 months. I haven't looked exactly, but I haven't really seen this mentioned elsewhere.
Shorty Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Probably because it's only your side of the pond affected so far :p that said it was mentioned here
Ike Posted August 25, 2016 Posted August 25, 2016 Sony have finally provided 2 step verification. You can enable it from here: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/account-security/2-step-verification/
Happenstance Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 CEX are selling the slim PS4 already. Their site claims to have 5 in stock as of this post. https://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SPS4S500GB001
Hero-of-Time Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 I was watching random video game videos on YouTube yesterday and came across a guy's channel that has some great content on it. He recently posted a video showcasing what games are coming to the PS4 between now and the start of next year. Crazy amount of games, with a nice variety on genres going on, as well.
drahkon Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 with a nice variety on genres going on But...nah, I won't go there. :p
Hero-of-Time Posted September 1, 2016 Posted September 1, 2016 Freedom Planet is heading to the PS4. LINK
Shorty Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Overwatch are doing a free weekend for PS4 players from Sept 9-12 (will start at 7pm BST). I encourage everyone to check it out! It's a lot of fun and, at least while competitive mode is active, there'll nearly always be a few of us on there. Details Edited September 2, 2016 by Shorty
bob Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 The "What's New" section on my PS4 hasn't updated since July 1st. I remember someone else having this problem. Was it you @Hero\-of\-Time? Did you manage to fix it?
Hero-of-Time Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 The "What's New" section on my PS4 hasn't updated since July 1st. I remember someone else having this problem. Was it you @Hero\-of\-Time? Did you manage to fix it? Yeah, it was me. Sadly I can't offer any advice as mine just randomly fixed itself not long after I complained about it on here. Maybe yours will be fixed now that you've done the same.
drahkon Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 @Dr\. bob even with the Beta Firmware update the What's New section is buggy as hell. It updates whenever it feels like it. The last time it updated for me was yesterday and now it shows me stuff from very early August (5th of August)... I think Sony has gotten a lot of messages about how shitty it is Hopefully they're working on it.
bob Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Yeah, I didn't really register it as being broken for a while, I just thought @Cube really liked playing Gravity Rush.
Cube Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Yeah, I didn't really register it as being broken for a while, I just thought @Cube really liked playing Gravity Rush. Well, I do. I just haven't played it since completing it 100%.
Emerald Emblem Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Freedom Planet is heading to the PS4. LINK I've played it a bit on Steam and whilst the momentum is a bit odd (You can walk up verticle walls), as a game, it's a tonne of fun. Would totally double dip and play it fully.

Tales Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Been playing the plus game Rebel Galaxy. It's a lot of fun once you get a decent ship. I wouldn't say the game is better but there are some stuff in the game it does better than No Man's Sky, like battles and missions.
Clownferret Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Two words - Moon Cresta I spent so much of my youth playing this in arcades, with this and picking up PGA for £6.99 on the PS store my PS4 is getting so Ferret love right now. Now if only @dazzybee would man up and give me a rematch on Fifa.

Clownferret Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 Ha, after the demolition I gave you last time I really don't think it's me running scared Pick a night and I'll be there! I'm generally on the PS4 later in the evening, probably when you're on milk and/or nappy duty. If you see me online hook me up. And for the record I let you win as Ferret Jnr was watching and I didn't want him to see his beloved Spurs take a pasting, especially so soon after we ripped the title out of your hands. ;-)
drahkon Posted September 8, 2016 Posted September 8, 2016 (edited) @Tales I've seen you play Oceanhorn, what's it like? It looks like a Zelda clone. Is it decent? After Ratchet & Clank I'm looking for a new indie game to play and this is on my radar. Edited September 8, 2016 by drahkon
