Ps4 Malfuntions

Post by Sebastian Lawe »

So, the story seems to be that the PS4 is replicating the Xbox 360's initial scenario upon first release. Overheating, blue light of death, etc.

Read up here.

Hm... that's kind of bizarre. Add this to the list of reasons I will be waiting until this time next year to get my hands on a PS4.

Thankfully, many of these are currently being patched and worked on. Have no fear, Sony should get to the bottom of this soon...assuming all goes well.
I've been around since 2008. And I'm old. Yay. Pretty sure I notched a fair amount of LOTD/XPs but somehow always like my underrated levels more. Go figure. My best design days are behind me, but I'll try to not be too shabby.

Oh, I don't know... Maybe I already have one?
And there are some exclusives that I have my eyes on :)

I'm just waiting to see if there's going to be a new Crash Bandicoot coming on PS4 or not.

The last Crash Bandicoot game I played was Crash of Titans. :/

Now that I look back at it...

I can't believe I played that as a kid.

And yet strangely not as bad as Lococyle is IMO... Hermmm....

I've said too much.

Xbox One is apparently having trouble too. One guy had to turn in his Xbox One twice.

Ah, but that's because they bought it straight after release. I'll be planning to get one next year.

Except Nintendo systems. Nintendo launches are always perfect hardware wise.

TBH I'd be more worried about the Vita. You know a system isn't going to sell well if the memory card costs almost as much as the system its self.

Hardware wise? Definitely. Software wise? Not so much.

This. That alone is more than enough to guarantee a flop launch.

So did a lot of people apparently. I can count on one hand how many people I've seen carrying one.

I don't even know anyone who owns one. I've seen only three (actual count) strangers carrying them around stores or post offices.
