Rummy Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Haha, there's no way it'll happen any time soon, if it ever happens at all. It's probably easier for us to travel to the moon than it is to buy a house in the South of England. Prices here are disgusting. If you think that's bad, think about London and the south east! Someone at work was telling me they practically bought a fucking mansion* up north somewhere for what is basically a shitty excuse for a house here. I do like the idea of the ease of swapping between two PS4s - though was it much different with the PS3? I'd also ask, though it's such an easy fix anyway, does the pad only sync up with one console at a time? I know it sounds weird, but I'm very much a 'my pad' kind of guy when it comes to consoles. (*not a mansion, but like...a decent sized house)

It sucks living in the South...although, I do admit, everything is gorgeous down here. Coastlines are amazing, New Forest, etc, etc. I want to buy a house in the North, attach some wheels to it and push it all the way down to the South. I have two pads - a sexy black one and an even sexier blue one. I flirt between the two. I mostly lean towards the blue one because it makes me feel like a God.

drahkon Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 That was a glorious E3. Can't believe it's been two years.
Mr-Paul Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 (edited) Hey guys. I caved in. Bloody system update taking ages - 250MB taking over half an hour and I have 100Mb internet! Edited October 30, 2015 by Mr-Paul

Pic's not working for me - what did you go for in the end/what sort of deal did you manage to snag? I've noticed that sometimes PSN can be slow - I've got good VM internet too so I think it's something on their side. Also obligatory...one of us, one of us, one of us! Whats your PSN? What games you got?

What games you got? Instagram was being a bitch so I uploaded it to imgur, you should hopefully be able to see now! I went black. Decided it'd fit in my room better despite the sexiness of the white. I got 500GB console, Assassin's Creed, Watch Dogs and Uncharted for £299 from Argos, with £20 of free Argos vouchers. But I actually got £30 of free vouchers, £10 when I paid online, £20 that they gave to me when I picked up in store. Also got £22.05 cashback tracked on Topcashback, so all in all a pretty good deal. Was tempted for the deal for the 1TB and PSTV included for £30 more, but decided I won't really use the PSTV and I was trying to get it as cheap as poss. Will upgrade HDD in the future if needed. The vouchers will be very helpful in paying for PS+ and Battlefront later this month! Pic is not working, braaaah. Welcome! Start adding us up! My ID is teh_jimzor.

I think it was @Cookyman who swapped out his HDD immediately for a 2TB one. Looking back, I kinda wish that I'd done the same. Although, it's not really that big an issue. However, if you're like me, you'll start saving screenshots and videos all over the place, which are a pain in the arse to move afterwards. My advice: Get a bigger HDD sooner rather than later. You'll have less stuff to move now than you will later on.
Mr-Paul Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks for the advice Jimzor. May have to look into it around Black Friday/Jan sales. Very peculiar - PS4 was struggling through a 500MB update for Assassin's Creed. Said it had 5 hours to go after 30 mins of downloading! Got to 80MB downloaded, turned it to standby for a couple of minutes. Turn it back on and it's installed! Time to get playing!
Rummy Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 I've avoided going to crazy with the sharesaves for got xactly that reason - I know I'll fill up fast with a load of stuff I don't do enough with! I'm intrigued by all these included TV deals going round, as I wouldn't object to buying one if unwanted...
drahkon Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 Started and completed Teslagrad today. Got the Platinum, too. Took me about 90 minutes. Interesting little game. Cool puzzles with cool mechanics, however the controls are a bit...iffy. Not as precise as the game needs them to be. This makes some of the sections unnecessarily difficult. Don't ask me about the plot...not sure if there is one Still, the puzzles were quite good. I enjoyed it for what it is. It was free on PS+, so I can't complain too much. : peace:
Mr-Paul Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Can I just say, the ability to suspend a game, go watch Netflix/iPlayer, even put the console into standby, then come back to the game at the same point is pretty amazing. It all just works so smoothly!

Ashley Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Confirmed, me and the bf have got two PS4s and there are two TVs in the flat. Split screen gaming is for peasants. If it has an online mode, it has local co-op for us. And we only ever have to buy one copy of any game when it's digital; for example, I buy the game, download and play it on his console with my log-in and he just plays it on my PS4. I also have one! So that's three if you're not counting Jim. THREE!
Rummy Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 greeeeeeeeeeeeedy! Who on earth kept doing that?? @lostmario? Loved just chilling in a party not even chatting, cos that kept cracking me up.
lostmario Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 greeeeeeeeeeeeedy! Who on earth kept doing that?? @Hero\-of\-Time's nephew @RUN N GUN JOSH
Rummy Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Ahhh, I was wondering who RUN N GUN JOSH was! That explains both, then!
Ganepark32 Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 When did Sony change it that you must have a payment method attached to your PSN account to be able to redeem a 1 month PS Plus code, one that I've paid for and not a free month trial? Bought a 1 month code the other day as I need to renew my PS Plus but decided only to pick up the 1 month for just now but after inputting the code and selecting confirm, it was telling me to add a payment method. What the hell. I've read on reddit and such that it'll ask you to do that for a free trial but why should I need to do it for a month of PS Plus that I've paid for?!?! Not attaching a payment method to my account given how frequently Sony seem to be losing customers information to hackers. Only work around I'm seeing is to input a payment method but then to immediately remove it once its gone through but it shouldn't be this much of a hassle to redeem something I've paid for, especially as it apparently doesn't do it if you buy a 3 or 12 month PS Plus membership. Bit shady if you ask me as it's clearly there to catch those using the month trial in the hope they forget about it and it automatically renews (another disgusting habit that it always resets to auto renew ).
dwarf Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 You know the library feature? Can you folder and delete things from it permanently? Asking for a friend.
Jimbob Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Sony decided to block my card for no reason what so ever, i used it to pay for Taken King back in September. So when i come to buy Walking Dead season 1 and Surgeon Simulator (both for Extra Life), it says "Payment not accepted, please try again". I contact Sony to ask for advice, whom promptly say the card has been blocked for 7 days for "security purposes". They did say i can use pre-paid cards instead, which isn't the point really. Sigh, shall get this sorted.
Daft Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Happened to me and I just used PayPal until it was sorted.
Hero-of-Time Posted November 5, 2015 Posted November 5, 2015 New advert for the console. I quite like it.
