ThatChizzle Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 News are reporting that there have been thousands of PS4's that are having so many problems, that they are being called "PS4 Bricks", or rather a PS4 that wont turn on at all. Sony has said that they will replace the useless systems, but I was wondering, anyone on here having the same problem? Heh glad I didnt buy a first version of the PS4 though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I'll probably get a PS4 just on late 2014, because i live in Brazil and it's expensive as hell here. If i'm lucky, i may get it next month though, but there are minimal chances. About these issues, never heard anything about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyver3 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Picked mine up on release day and have had no issues except loosing my campaign progress on battlefield 4 which I don't blame the system for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHK1978 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 After what I went through with the XBOX 360, I would not go anywhere near either one of the two next generation systems until I have read that the kinks are worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I didnt personally have problems with my first 360 I would like to not take that risk this time. I dont expect to get a next gen console (PS4) until mid next year at the earliest because of it.</p><p> </p><p> It also allows multiple games to be released in that period as well, which is just a bonus.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtplaystew Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 <p>I have a PS4. Its worked perfectly since I got it. I hope it continues to but I'm not getting cocky just yet. </p><p> </p><p> It's awesome. I have Battlefield and Fifa. Both are great. </p><p> </p><p> Im not into BF4 as much as I thought i'd be, but it's really because I'm not interested in FPS games as much as I used to be. Graphically it's a masterpiece and something every gamer should try to see. If this is only the beginning, good things are coming.</p><p> </p><p> My biggest problem thus far is the annoying bright light on the front of the controller. They need to patch in an option to shut that thing off. It's terrible. I prefer to play at night. The glare is unavoidable and incredibly irritating. I don't notice it 80% of the time I play, but once I do I have to pause and do something else for a little or it distracts me too much and I can't get into the game. There's also been a few times in Fifa I lost the ball in the glare and it cost me a crucial moment. It doesn't happen too often, but it seems like once is one time too many really. Just patch in a way to shut it off if you aren't using it. </p><p> </p><p> Some people won't be affected by this at all. But I am.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, seems like such a trivial thing, but there really wasn't any excuse for not having an option to turn it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTandSilentBob Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 <p>My brother and I aren't having any problems with our PS4s. I like the feel of the controller and the graphics are a big upgrade. I have Battlefield and NBA 2K. I really wanted NBA Live but after playing the demo I was extremely disappointed. I really enjoy DCUO and Resogun as well.</p><p> </p><p> As far as being rich, I'm not, but my wife recently left me and I no longer have a huge expense that I previously had.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basmat01 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I know this isn't really the place but don't really want to start a new thread and I don't want this to turn into a Xbox vs ps4 thing. But I picked up my Xbox one today and I'm really impressed with the system I've had no issues with it the graphics look great and i found it really easy to transfer my stuff over from the 360. The only complaint that I have is that it's noisy sounds like a tractor lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
