What actual games should i get for the ps4? Nothing mega catching my fancy. Will upgrade to ps4 ghosts but not mega into that. Any ideas of some good games?

I'm going to get watchdogs, something a little different.

KillZone will be decent.
Battlefield maybe?

Then wait for The Crew and Watchdogs.

 

[seb]

Can the ps4 use the sky go website or has a sky go app?

 

[dk]

I'm going to get watchdogs, something a little different.

shame its not out for another 6 months, was really looking forward to this out of all the launch games.

I think Knack is a really underated game apparently it is a really good game and lots of fun to play, but don't hear many interested in it :/

Im gonna get The Crew when available next year though

Its kinda like crash bandicoot but with a different character

i'm rather excited for friday, the day dpd will hand over a ps4 + killzone + BF4... I've just ordered 365 day's playstaion plus ready for some online gaming, oh and i've just put the PS4 update on my memory stick ready.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Where did you download the update from?
I can only see it on the US store and I've read not to install that on UK machines.

http://us.playstation.com/support/systemupdates/ps4/new-install/ scroll down a bit and you'll see "download now" make sure you follow everything it's says and save it correctly

EDIT: where about did you read about not installing it on uk machines?

 

[AK]

That looks like the US one?

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Just from what I've read from searching for the download.

It will probably be fine I imagine. I'll wait until the day before I collect mine in case there are future updates added to it.

 

[matt91]

yep ignore me my bad, You don't need to install that update.

 

[Gavin.]

So is there a UK version or does it not need an update?

 

[matt91]

nope, no update is needed for the UK version

 

[Gavin.]

Sweet! Liam. will be happy!

 

[Ray Gin]

:clap:

 

[WhiteHartMart]

Not what I heard - in fact 1.51 apparently will be available to download from Thursday lunchtime?

 

[dk]

afaik it needs an update, the box won't play blurays without it, its just not like the xbox where it wouldn't even turn on without the update having been applied.

 

[N0ddie]

Day 1 European consoles will definitely require an update. The consoles have been sitting in warehouses for weeks and in that time there has been 1.5 and 1.51.

 

[matt91]

http://www.joystiq.com/2013/11/25/ps4-firmware-1-51-available-to-pre-download-in-europe-on-thursda/ just came across this, couldn't find anything earlier when i posted but we will need to according to this. Will be released thursday for European consoles

 

[N0ddie]

Allegedly GAME have cancelled hundreds of PS4 pre-orders.

 

[seb]

They sent an email saying if the payment got refused by the bank the order would be cancelled but to ring customer services who would reinstate.

Was a bizarre email. Told you to tell your bank that game will be taking payment to ensure it was not refused.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

I've still not heard from them. No email or phone call.

Are you guys on phase one? I'm phase two but thought I would have heard something by now. Just checked Game account and nothing in there for order history etc.

Will go in store on Wednesday.

 

[seb]

I missed the phase one by a few weeks. Had the email last tuesday.

 

[gex23]

I think i'm about phase 50.

 

[seb]

the email i got.

 

[Geddes]

I've still just paid the £20 deposit with Argos in branch. Do I need to pop in before hand pay rest off or just arrive in store on release?

 

[v16daf]

I also had the same email. Ordered on the 16th of August. It says it's been held for release day? Does that mean I'll get it Friday. Game have pissed me off TBH. I should have bought from Amazon

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

I've not had anything from Game. Think I ordered early September. Will have to dig out my receipt.
I'll go in on Wednesday and see whats going on. Only paid £20 deposit and want to pay balance on the day.

 

[Gavin.]

Game phoned me today, all good to go for Friday!

 

[v16daf]

When did your order it? If you don't mind me asking

 

[Gavin.]

Around July time mate.

 

[Ray Gin]

Can't wait for Friday, ASDA better keep their release day delivery promise!

 

[Paul182]

Got a text from Argos saying mine is being delivered 29/11 cant wait!!!

 

[joeac]

Sainsburys Entertainment order states 'preparing for dispatch' excitement building!

 

[N0ddie]

UK version of update 1.51 is available to download now for those looking to avoid launch day rush.

Standard update: http://uk.playstation.com/systemsoftwareversion/
Replacing HDD version: http://uk.playstation.com/ps4initialise/

 

[gex23]

Any chance you guys could post a few photos of your setups and initial thoughts of the PS4 / controller / games when you get them?

It'd be really appreciated

 

[N0ddie]

Will do.

 

[seb]

No update yet for me. Think i won't be getting one on release

 

[v16daf]
