PS4 PlayStation 4 News (Articles, Accessories and Everything Else) Part II

[Quivorir]

Think my ps4 pro is on its last legs.

Constant crashing, incredibly slow,external hard drive needs repair every time I boot up, games becoming corrupt and needing to be redownloaded. Doing a full factory reset now (my God this takes forever) so hopefully I can limp over the line to the ps5.

Is it a PS4 problem or a HDD problem?

Binding of Isaac easily.

Is it a PS4 problem or a HDD problem?

Yeah after jumping the gun and going straight to wiping the playstation I think it is just my external. Odd that even games installed on the internal were having issues but I can't even get my external to format now but am having no issues otherwise.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Medievil,Death Stranding,The Last of Us 2 only games that interest me the rest is meh.

What's wrong with that?

 

[dwwaino]

I saw that and thought it was because I recently bought something.

Ok, my PS4 Pro internal hard drive and 5TB external hdd are both full (I don't like deleting games). So, I bought a 10TB hdd. Being an idiot, I didn't check beforehand, and then realised that the PS4 will only accommodate 8TB externally. Is anyone able to tell me if this is the absolute limit of the PS4, or will a firmware update expand the hdd capacity?

I feel like an appropriate level of DH for buying a $419 paperweight, don't worry about that.

Can you not return it?

 

[Quivorir]

Why not just delete games?

 

[James Colorado]

Can you not return it?

It's JB, so probs can, but it is opened and I've also got this philosophical objection to rewarding idiocy (my uni jobs were in retail), so I firmly believe in buyer beware. Problem is, now I'm the idiot.

Why not just delete games?

I'm gonna have to. The Order 1886, for example, was fun enough for a lazy weekend, but I doubt I'll return to it.

Well, personally I'd be happy to admit I'm an idiot for a return of $419, seeings as I generally have to do it for free.

I think my optical drive is dying. I have to 'persuade' it to make the right sounds otherwise it just makes a kerchunk noise a few times then tries to tell me there's no disc in there.

 

[Quivorir]

Not really exactly sure what this is.

Just seems like a monthly game that has prizes for playing.

Probably no point in getting another PS4 with the PS5 getting released later this year

Nope. Just gotta pray to a god I don't believe in that it makes it through. Also, I watched a YouTube of a change out on a pro like mine and you pretty much have to completely disassemble it just to get to the drive.

Does anyone know roughly how much internet data is used to play online?

I recently agreed to upgrade to NBN with unlimited data (was on a plan of 200gb per month) but was given the option of upgrading to 500gb per month and paying $10 less than what I am currently. A large reason for why I want to get unlimited data is so I can play AFL Evolution 2 online without worrying about going over my limit, but maybe 500gb will be more than enough.

In a typical month, I usually only go through about 150-160gb.
