Don't know what I did to the last thread to mess it up for some.

So, PS4 stuff then.

My apologies. I only scanned over that and read that he did not tell them.
My bad. Nothing wrong with that if you let them know.
Sorry.

This is the internet, you don't apologize when wrong you double down.

That's why I thanked the apology. Don't think I've ever seen such common sense online.

There is a post a few pages back saying 4K is HDMI 2. Basically it is not the same. Saying that I read on turbofuture (google it and hdmi) that most new cables sold are compatible. Tech radar gives a good guide and says the same. Just got to know what you are buying.

Gamestop are stopping to an all time low ...

They are actually advertising Bioshock Collection as 2 seperate games, almost bought it today for 25€ then I asked was the 3 games with it and he said no there selling the pre ownded discs for 25 each...

Is it legal for them to even do that?

What you mean pre owned discs? Like pre owned Bioshock collection or last gen single Bioshock games ?

Varik

Bioshock is on 2 disc, 1&2 on 1 disc and infinite on the other.

Nothing to stop them, unless the game needs to install both disc or needs 1 particular disc to run.

Is the streaming quality from a PS4 to a PC or Mac good? I know internet connection is the main factor but what are people's experience with it?

I'm not sure if it's legal but it shows utter contempt for their customers. I'm pretty sure I bought the Collection off them on Day 1 for €50 and now here they are selling 2nd hand discs adding up to the same price.

It reminds me of a local shopowner who used used to open a packet of chocolate digestives and sell them for 10p each. Greedy pigs.

Think it's limited to 720p on the standard PS4 and 1080p on the Pro, never really tried it.

Never used it over the internet only locally.

Yeah it is 720 on a normal ps4, I streamed uncharted to a 2009 Mac on WiFi and it worked perfectly, I like the feature I must say.

I posted a Dark Souls 3 video to youtube last week and it was 1080p. Didnt have to make any config changes within the Pro for that.

Turned on my PS4 last night and it asked me to input my password, no worries, after I put in the password it didn't log me in but told me they would send me an email, which could take up to 24hrs, containing an link to set a new password.

So 24hrs later and nothing, you'd think they could have left me with account access and lock the account down if I didn't follow the link. No access through their website either. Contacting support now.

Update: Turned out to be rather painless, after the 10min wait, some suspicious log in location (my VPN), all sorted. Not real answer for not receiving email though.

Joined steam and downloaded Civ 6. First time I've bought a PC game in about a decade. Downloaded in minutes, such a pleasant experience compared to downloading from PSN. Why can't they get this right? Is it just that they're cheap?

Steam is fantastic. The refund option alone sets it miles ahead of PSN in terms of customer support. If a game is buggy or performing poorly I get my money back. Simple as that. I get the funds refunded to my Steam account so they still get my money (although there's even an option to refund to your credit card). It such a customer friendly approach to doing business.

I don't abuse the system but there's been a few times where a game just wasn't what I expected. Stardew Valley was one. I'm sure it's a fantastic game but it simply wasn't what I was looking for at that time. I didn't do my research so I contacted Steam and told them exactly that. Within 3 hours I had my refund and was playing a different game.

It's also changed how I feel about buying digitally. Previously digital always felt like the lesser option and every purchase came with a tinge of regret. But not with Steam. I feel like I'm paying for a product and a service and if both aren't up to scratch I get my money back. It's empowering.

And then there's the Steam sales (on already cheaper games)! 55% off Darkest Dungeon and only 6 weeks after it was released, on the same day I was set to buy it at full price. I was smiling for the whole weekend.

I'm getting my first gaming PC after Xmas and one of the key reasons is Steam.

Pissed there won't be a sequel to Sleeping Dogs, the first was a real gem of a game.

Pretty sure there was an MMO spin off that was in closed beta for a while, Triad Wars I think if was called. It got shut down earlier this year if I recall correctly.

Shame we won't see a sequel, as said already the first one was great.
