Title: Anyone get a PS4 yet?
Post by: videoholic on November 20, 2013, 04:48:01 PM
I was able to order one from Best Buy this afternoon.  It just happened to pop up online as being able to order it.  So I guess we'll get it next week.

I went this morning to check the shelves and one thing cool Best Buy here in Tampa is doing is if you ask someone about the PS4, they will hand you a $5 off coupon for any game or accessory.  Not bad since I needed a controller anyway.

Not bad. How long is the coupon good for? I work across from a Best Buy and the cheapskate in me is wanting to pop over for a 5 dollar coupon :)

how does the PS4 handle online? does it use your old PS3 login, or do you have to create a new account on a different service, or convert it to be PS4 compatible?

My understanding is that your psn account is good for both but to play online you need to have PS plus

Titan nailed it, same psn account.  And just like PS3, you need plus to play online.  If you already have plus from the ps3 it'll transfer to the PS4

You didn't need plus to play online with ps3.....

Coupons were for another week.

I was online the other day on my PS3 and didn't pay. If you have to pay to play online with your PS3, then Sony is sticking it right up your ass ;)

I was mainly xbox last gen, which you did have to pay for.  I guess sony didn't do the same until now, meh, $400 bucks for the console and 30 more for a year of plus.

30 a year isn't bad though. Annoying but they do have to pay for their servers and stuff. We had a free ride long enough. Doubt 30 a year will break anyone's budget. And it could be worse; 30 a month ;)

Amazon has the PSN Plus for 29 bucks.  And then I got 5 bucks off so it was only 25...  Not bad for a year.

I'm going to wait for the blue PS4. No rush. My time is too limited as it is to play.

I did a search online for PS4 IN STOCK. And it linked me to a forum that someone said that BB had it online.
Went there and sure enough. It was gone within a half hour.

Titan's mom's twat aside, i finally got a ps4 yesterday :D

I bought Fifa and nba 2k14. Fifa's fun as hell and im going to play a shit load of it once i figure out who the hell to play as since i dont know any soccer players lol (i like the sport though).

nba 2k14 looks amazing but the controls and playing the game well is really daunting. I was able to keep it close, but my last game was kinda of ruined when I kept doing stupid fancy passes accidently that were getting stolen, so the flow of the game wasnt fun. Hopefully itll get better when I get the controls down.

Kind of regret getting assassins on PC and not ps4, but i didnt know when I'd get a hold of a ps4 and I got it half off at black friday

Havent tried online, but the store and downloading is infinitely better. I found the last PS3 update to make it unusuable and I felt like i was opening a box, inside of a box, inside of a box, inside of a box, inside of a box to download things. Theyve made it really easy. Just have to hope what I did to stop auto-renewal works when my PSN trial period is over. Fucking hate auto-renewal

Its going to be a great console though once the library builds

is that your living room or your bedroom?  look nice and roomy.  maybe you should take the picture with the room's light on so we can see the ps4 better.  i can see you also have a ps3 in there, probably the early generation model.  Cool.

When I put the flat screen in the living room I fed the wires through. The pantry is right behind. Now in the living room I have nothing but a tv. I just out the sound bar in a couple days ago and need to feed that power cable through.
