Sent it to Sony, they said it would cost like £200 or something to fix. I told them to shove it and send me the PS4 back, went to GAME knowing that the only game that still worked was FIFA, luckily enough, it was FIFA they stuck in to test it was working, so I traded it in and got a PS4 Pro. Ps f**k GAME. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 So that would be my advice, test a game on it that is less HDD heavy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Thompson Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Any PS4 players here had this message? - "Cannot continue using the application. The disc cannot be read. Make sure that the disc is not damaged or dirty."Keeps coming up with TLOU all of a sudden. Looked at tutorials and nothing works. I've a bad feeling it's code for "your disk drive is fucked". I think I may need to get in touch with Sony if it doesn't stop [emoji20] Quality control? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 Had it over 5 years now so the warranty will be fucked. Got it in the shop the now. Does the hard drive of the old models go into the the Pro? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 Guy a took it to reckons it could be the hard drive as some games are working. I was going to invest in a 1TB anyway so I suppose it'll kill two birds if that's the problem. I've got a normal PS4. Can someone recommend where to buy the 1TB from if you have installed it yourself? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted February 24, 2018 Author Share Posted February 24, 2018 Cheers. Last query I swear! Has anyone upgraded to a Pro from an older model? I'm thinking this may be the excuse I need to invest in one. My question is if I save my game save data to the Cloud via PS Plus, is it a simple process to transfer all my data and trophies to the new console? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The transfer process was really simple. IIRC the 2 consoles were linked and all the data was transferred over in about an hour or so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Modern Gaming is Rubbish: An Occasional Series Picked up CoD WW2 yesterday and stuck it in last night to have a wee shot when the missus was out at the gym. Fully expected a colossal update to need to be downloaded, but be able to play it offline. Nope. Game wouldn't even start without a 15gb update. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I can beat that. I bought Battlefield One last night as CEX had it for £12. Put it in - 30.2Gb update. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume if I had put it in without my PS4 connected to the internet it would have let me load up and play the (presumably horribly broken) v1.0, but as I was connected, it's decided that it wants the patch and wouldn't let me start the game without it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Much did you pay for it KB? Call of Duty that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Thought Longshot was brilliant. Shame they never let you go into a career mode after it though. Longshot is dreadful. It's nothing but cutscenes and some of the most ridiculous clichès I've ever seen. The evil producer ????????I've managed to get the Jets to the AFC Championship game after going 9-7 in the regular season. Full 15 minute quarters so takes about 90 minutes to play one game. I'm really enjoying this year's Madden. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really enjoying this year's Madden. Yeah Longshot is very cliched and a bit ridiculous but enjoyed the story and liked playing in the high school games and doing the challenges, something a bit different. I also really liked the FIFA one too though so maybe just a fan of them in general, looking forward to see where they go with this and how they expand on it in the future. And f**k that’s some commitment that, think I’m just the 6 minute half’s, I used to play the full game but enjoying it more just playing offence I’m pretty hopeless on defence. Had a season with the Raiders where I got to the Championship game after going 13-3 but got pumped by the Dolphins. Marshawn Lynch is great fun to play with. Not played in a while because of real life getting in the way and coursework needing done but fancying firing up a Browns franchise season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Browns are good for a rebuild with all their first round picks. The 15 minute quarters are fine as long as you set the clock to run down to about 15 seconds. It gives you a realistic amount of plays and you've still got time to audible before the snap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share Posted March 12, 2018 Probably the most appropriate place for this question. Rise of the Tomb Raider and Wolfenstein II have began downloading on my PS4 (the former has finished and is working). These are two games I've never played (though want to), never purchased and never so much as looked at on PS Store. Yet they've come from nowhere and I have them on my console. Has this happened to anyone before/have I missed something where Sony are giving these games away for free? No one else has access to my console so it's not as if someone could have accidently ordered them, and I've checked my bank. No orders are pending. I recently transferred my old data from my other PS4 onto this one and I recently purchased another game from the store. I don't know if somehow Sony have made a balls up and I'm certainly not complaining but I find this very strange indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
