    Thanks man, mine took 6 minutes and noticeably faster on the xmb but i think my fan has quietened down a bit as well. Suspiciously quiet testing The Division 2 after doing it.

    If anyone does rebuild their PS4 database you should know that it removes association with folders for any external storage games, and if a folder only had games that were on an external drive then it deletes that folder. Doesn't delete the games just messes up folders.

    I have used the back button attachment for about 2 hours since getting it, finding it tough to get used to but I'm sure itll get easier as I use it more.

    I find the buttons very sensitive, and find that the right paddle is a lot easier to use than the left one, because of how I hold my controller.

    Looking forward to putting in some hours with it to get used to.

    You can.

    Does your son have PS+?
    If so, you don't need a separate sub to play onlie.

    So as long as one account on a PS4 is a PS+ subscriber, other (non PS+) accounts can play online too?

    I did not know that.

    Only the accounts that have the console set as primary, if the account is not set as primary PS+ is not shared.

    System Software 7.50 Beta invites going out at the moment.

    No indication of new features yet but it notes that it does not include any major consumer-facing features during the beta period. These are smaller quality-of-life and performance fixes.

    Does anyone else PS4 say they’re online watching Netflix when they’re not? My PS4 is turned off in rest mode but it’s showing on my nephews friends list that I’m online watching Netflix, it was doing this last week too for my brother but my PS4 was fully shut down then.

    No chance. Sure it hasn't even been announced yet. I'd say it's at least a good 2 years away.

    Surprised GTA5 came out on PS3 so I was thinking GTA6 might make a release on PS4. I know the PS4 is ancient now.

    5 was released before the PS4 after being delayed, which is why it was so close to the PS4 release. Then it was an enhanced version that came to PS4

    GTA5 online still works on PS3, It hadn't been updated in years but people are still using it. It's very bare bones in comparison to GTA5 online on PS4. PS3 and PS4 players are using different servers so they are not thrown into the same map.

    Gonna get a PS4 pro to pass this time over the next few weeks. Have an Xbox one but the game list is shocking.

    Any recommendations for the best value deal online or in store?

    I would advise just getting Game Pass on the Xbox if you do not have it already.

    As for a PS4 pro, CEX sell them second hand for €300 and provide a 2 year warranty. I wouldn't buy a Pro full price atm with the 5 out later this year.
