Lol stop being so blinded, those guys are so pro Sony it isn't even funny, it's one of the reasons I don't watch anything to do with them.

Sony f'd up with this stupid pro crap.

Sony fans or not, they had an anti ps4 pro agenda ever since the pro was just a rumour.

That didn't change before the event. Unless the ps4 was free that wasn't going to change. Colin's beef with the device was that it was going to make both original ps4 outdated. Of course that mindset want going to change.


You can ignore the facts all your want. They may be big Sony fans, but they have hated the idea of an updated ps4 for the last few months.

@Sinn seriously are you trying to argue that they are fanboys, but because they don't blindly love the Pro they aren't to be trusted?! That's the VERY reason to be concerned, they are fanboys who aren't happy with the Pro. These are the very type of fan that any business loves to have to go out and buy these types of products. When you lose those guys, you are in very real danger. Just ask Sega.

All the details you need.

Considering I never said anything of the sort, you have your answer: no.

eh, some of the features are pretty handy actually.

I can hardly tell the difference TBH (It's only 312MB)

Folders and the quick menu I think are both cool.
Quick menu is handy since you can customise the suspend menu which is helpful since I can leave it as power and accessibility options only (the latter being button layout since I constantly change that btw UC4 and batman atm).

but yeah the rest are other things depends on the user I suppose.

Yay a new Everybody's Golf is incoming

This new firmware is[censored], firstly all my screenshots were gone after it installed and the new interface is terrible.

Even last night just trying to take a couple screenshots was far more intrusive than it use to be. At least the game would pause with the old way screenshots were done now the game just continues and a few seconds later the dumb screen pops up on the side. Sony stop going backwards please.

"At least the game would pause with the old way screenshots were done now the game just continues and a few seconds later the dumb screen pops up on the side. Sony stop going backwards please."

It used to pause? mine never did. it always continued and just popped up on the side with the little screenshot icon (but I am using the quick screenshot mode come to think of it, tapping the share button to take the shot

im a little confused by this... your PS4 used to pause gameplay when you pushed the share button to take a picture?
Mine has never done this nor have I ever heard of it doing this Unless I am reading this wrong.

Yes, you push the screenshot button, the game then goes on pause and the screenshot options come up, press square to save video, triangle to save screenshot, click on the images to upload them. Standard feature, the only games that never paused where the Souls games for obvious reasons. Press circle to return back to the game, unpause and continue.

In the share button options, you can change it so you can quickly take screenshots without pausing the game, the option has always been there

I don't remember if I ever had to change it, but I've always just held down the share button and it's taken a screenshot in game without pausing. Pressing the button has always brought up the share menu.

An article and vid from Eurogamer's Digital Foundry looking at the 4K mode for Rise of the Tomb Raider on the PS4 Pro.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2016-rise-of-the-tomb-raider-ps4-pro-vs-pc-comparison

It looks like the up-scaling technique they're using is mostly GPU-bound which could explain the 2.3X boost to GPU performance but minor boost to CPU. Looks decent but I'm more interested to see what extras will be added to games running at 1080P.

^ I bought the LittleBigPlanet™ 3 Battlestar Galactica Costume Pack, still a massive rip off at R52 But I couldn't help myself.

Anyone got the Just Cause 3 season pass, is it worth R220?

I remember seeing these review on Destructoid - https://www.destructoid.com/review-just-cause-3-bavarium-sea-heist-380139.phtml

If you read this one and the previous reviews linked in the article it seems like a bad choice.

I just tried to purchase something on the Web store, and got the following error:

Commerce is currently not available in your country/region.

I'll try again on the PS4 when I get home, but is anybody else getting this error?
