Check this thread of mine.
Even my PS4 made noise when I started playing Last of Us.
So it's just that some games are power hungry due to extreme graphics.
I have WWE 2k15 now and my PS4 is in vertical position now, it doesn't make any noise.
Nothing to worry about! :)

Hello,

Proud Owner of New Ps4, after 7 years of Ps3 usage.

i have a cabinet now with Ps One, Ps2, Ps3 and now pS4 stacked up :D





I am just surprised with the fact that we cannot play Movies off from usb stick like i do with my ps3. i really was looking forward for this.

will we get update in regards to this?

Plus i have another question, i used to live in UK and my PSN id since 2008 is of UK and it does not let me change the country and i live in islamabad pakistan.

and now if i want to make purchases from PSN STORE, i need a UK Valid Bank Card (which i dont have as i only use Standard Chartered bank, Pakistan)

so i need a Local, Pakistan Region PSN id, any idea to merge a new account with my old one to make purchases?

or just make a new PSN ID with region PAKISTAN, then can we make purchases off PAKISTAN origin PSN ID STORE?


My system came along with 2 Controller, Destiny, GTA 5 and FIFA 15. Costed 1799 AED. Bought from Dubai. Its japanese version :/ therefore O is for ENTER in the XMB and X is for back. can that be changed. as it feels weird and i keep pressing X for enter :s




HOW TO COPY PHOTOS from usb to ps4? i tried and the ps4 doesnt recognise usb, i jsut cant find any option there :S

yes just make another uk account which is region 2 and redeem the extra codes from the region 2 copy of farcry 4 and u can still play the game and get the extra dlc on ur first region 1 account as long as the region 2 account stays on ur ps4 and doesn't get deleted !

@goats no piracy on ps4 yet but yes u can do gamesharing from psn accounts just like ps3 but only two ppl can share with each other... meaning u can only share with one other person
thanks jazak ALLAH

The size of the 1[SUP]st[/SUP] .pkg would be 4096 MB, the 2[SUP]nd[/SUP] .pkg would also be 4096 MB and the 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] .pkg would be 1377 MB. Add them all up and you have a total of 10GB. The complete set for Infamous. If you try for another file by using 0_3.pkg, there would be nothing at that address.
@venom

This is where I get confused because I was trying to download 46gb game and it shows only 2 .pkg files both are 4gb in size, if game size is around 46gb then it should show more than ten 4gb files.

could be the package be zipped up or something to save on download time or it just could be the game reserves some ample space for future dlcs etc aswell

I want to know if the PS4 has any issues lately as one of my friends has already gone through 3 PS4 and he currently says Xbox One is more reliable as it is still working when it was launched.

Who says PS4 isn't reliable?
Ps4 launch model didn't had any issues as much as I know.
I've a PS4 since last year and haven't faced any issues.
Maybe your friend was unlucky! :p

I'm getting a PS4 next week as well. Region 1/2 is not worth the extra cost IMO as the only thing different is that you have to press O to select and X to go back on a reg 3 console (it's the other way around for a Region 1 console)
