Just tried the boxed PS4 headset for the first time and it doesn't fit into either of the 2 controllers I have. It's a loose connection so it doesn't provide a constant signal. A bit shit really, lives up to the cheap feel it has.

Are you sure you've pushed it all the way in? For me it easily goes in 3/4 of the way or so, but then the last bit requires a bit more force. After it has snapped in the connection is tight and secure.

I am really enjoying killzone and knack but I honestly don't think the frame-rate is that great.
I have found that they both stutter along and don't have the smooth frame-rate I thought they would have.
And this is at 720p.
 
Still getting E-82305F13 whenever I go to upload screenshots or video, even though it was working fine the first few days and it still captures video and screenshots.

Also how does recording work? Because I'm definitely not getting "the last 15 minutes of gameplay", it starts the recording when I double tap share...
Still not working, anyone?

I tried that and it didn't work.

yep....
 
For those who are interested.



Yum.
"Yum" is right! Damn, I want a DS4 in red. I wish Sony wasn't being so coy about when us Yanks will be getting one. I'll be there day 1, cash in hand.

Me and my coworker were discussing the audio out options of the PS4 here at work and don't have an answer. Hopefully someone here knows. When you set the HDMI audio out option in the system settings to Dolby or DTS, what signal gets sent through when playing games? Is it DTS-HDMA/TrueHD or a lossy format? Does it just rely on the handshake of the receiver to tell which format to send? Of course, we're both at work and can't test it to see. :p

Playstation UK support is based in the UK. Wow.

Just called them up for my friend who got a DOA. Pretty quick call, replacement coming on Thursday.

So does Killzones in-game downloads download while in standby mode? Wanted a quick MP blast, but it's still downloading. No downloads in my notification area, so it's all in-game.

i mentioned this before, just wondering what is running when the ps4 is on standby? i have it on standby with no disc inside and have let it cool for a while. if i put my ear close to it i can hear something whirring away. the fan? hard drive? it kinda makes me not wanna leave it in standby if its partially 'on' all the time. maybe i'm just being paranoid.

I get a crash whenever I cycle through my Killzone screenshots... I don't know why. And it happens every time. I have to go super slow.

Is it possible to pre-pay for a system with GAME?

My friend wants to do so for ease of mind, but we cant find the option on the site.

Nope, I don't think there's a way to do it. The way I got mine was to constantly refresh the bundles page until one became available. I think I was lucky that plenty were popping up that day though.

Arrives tomorrow. I am so excited.
 
Sold my PS4, bought xbox one...

Hard time being impressed by Ryse. Killzone spoiled me. Not only do I think it looks better but it feels much smoother as well

:/

Hope you can both .

if it makes you feel any better. At least you don't have to pay for ps+ and worry about filling up your HDD with all those free games

1080p 60fps vs 900p 30fps

Couldn't resist the money...

and I really wanted to play KI

It feels like a mistake right now. PS4 definitely feels more next gen to me

Didn't you learn anything from the constant barrage of funny GIFs ?

Stupid question but after 2 weeks I have yet to figure it out. Is there a way to switch profiles without having a second dual shock logged in or turning off the controller?

For me its literally other way around, One feels more next gen. I have both but spending more time with One. Even the controller is so premium build, can't let go. Playing AC4 on PS4, and Forza, KI on the One.

So GAF, is the PS4 jaggy free? I have one and notice them. Just not as bad. Maybe it's my tv? Although my TV is a 1080P plasma.. I just thought I heard people saying there are none :S

No, but the AA solutions are pretty damn good in most games. AC4's looks really nice.

OK just wanted to make sure it wasn't my TV. Definitely a step above last gen. Another question:

I posted this in the PS4 trouble shooting.. My PS4 has froze two times in the exact location (Network settings, inputting password) and I had to pull the frigging power cord out of the back to get it to turn off. Anyone else have this problem? Should I be worried about damage to the console?

I have had issues with my console freezing in the UI but if I let it sit, it will eventually continue. It's more of a waiting until it catches up.

Just deleted a few game installs then a screen popped up saying database corrupted and to restart ps4. So I do and then it does some thing on restart for corruption.

All seems to be working now though. What the heck just happened? Anyone else get this before?!

Who is up for some drunk Resogun or Killzone tonight? *raises hand*

Xbone party chat is fucked, yet again. Looks like Ryse co-op ain't happening. PS4 getting lovins tonight.
 
Couldn't get Warframe loaded last night. Screen just went black after I started the app. Also DCU didn't want to work either. Had the music playing in the back but black screen. Had to turn my PS4 off and restart to get them working. Knack was funny like that the other day also.

Anyone else experience stuff like this?
