Well, for many people, it is that nice. Not everyone has a high end PC, particularly since the days of MS Office requiring new hardware are long gone. For many people, the PS3 was their high end gaming system, and the PS4 is a major step up. I love my Honda Accord because I'll never be able to afford that Maserati GranTurismo.
fyi, i dont think the metal issue is that common, but i had to hold the power button for 10 seconds to get it to default the video output.
Haven't purchased any retail games, because I didn't feel like spending the money and I have PS+... so since I can't get Warframe downloaded I popped in The Matrix after updating. I'm annoyed, but half expected there to be the oh-so-typical network issues.
Its a console launch. All modern launches had issues and now that we are tying into the Internet for everything its pretty reasonable to expect problems.
But compared to the RROD issues that plagued the Xbox 360 launch I would still call this a big win for Sony.
It's so quiet. The actual PS4 felt sturdy, the controller not so much. It doesn't feel bad, just not much heft. PSN is down.
RROD problems didn't start until well after launch. Was at least a year before it was an issue.
They truly acted as if it was no big deal.
First impression? First impression is Amazon sucks. Last time I ever preorder anything through them. Launch day delivery guarantee? Right. Mine is just MIA, Amazon says they shipped, UPS says Amazon never gave them a package. Amazon tells me it's lost and I may see it sometime next week and gives me a free month of effing Prime. That's it. Supervisor and all. Nothing. They had no answer for my request of what the word Guarantee means to Amazon. Yes I am butthurt.
For real though, I spend at least 15k a year at Amazon personally and my business at least another 50k, not that it matters to them, but that is definitely going down for how they handled this. They truly acted as if it was no big deal.
Amazon should care more about your important problems.
Was your console shipping around anywhere near Kansas? There was a train derailment that effected a lot of day one releases from Amazon.
Nope. I'm in FL. Package is just lost. Amazon says they gave to UPS, UPS says they never received it. Amazon could have at least flipped a free game or something to make up for their lack of follow through on their Guarantee. I understand shit happens, but they guaranteed it, and literally could care less that they broke their guarantee. That's my biggest issue.

Every "guarantee" has fine print, sir. Relax. You hyped yourself up way too much for a console that has no killer apps yet. Be happy you got something from Amazon... might not have even been Amazon's fault. I've had UPS lose shit for me too and say I got it, signed for it, or was left on doorstep only to be proven false.
What do you guys think of Remote Play? For those who have tried it, is your PS4 wired or wireless?
It's more for my kids than me but way to miss the point! It is irrelevant who's fault it is when Amazon is the one who guaranteed it. I'm not sure why this is so difficult to understand. If you bought something from me, and you made plans around the day I GUARANTEED you would have it, then I just acted like it was no big deal when I didn't give it to you even though you paid me, you'd have the same "it's cool" attitude?
I expected this, so I'm not bummed out or anything.
But it is delaying my acquirement of Resogun since it is download only.... I don't have any disc games.
I may go pick up something if goes on for a few hours.....
I might pick up NBA 2k14 tomorrow. I hear its pretty awesome.
I grabbed Killzone. Its really good. I'm enjoying it quite a bit.
Do you see "an update file is downloading" every time you go to fire that game up?
I keep running into this and I choose "no" when it asks "do you want to start the application without the update."
This happened the first time I fired the game up. I waited a couple of minutes and then that message was gone.
Now it's a couple of hours later and I'm firing it up again and I'm seeing that again.
Is this normal? Did that game have at least one update?
Overall I'm pretty impressed with the system. It's a nice upgrade to the PS3 across the boards. Build quality is better than I expected. No wobbling, either.
PSN has been down all day for me, which sucks because I can't even load my profile
I love the DS4 controller, it is amazing and I like it better than the xbox controllers. There is only one controller that I like more than the DS4 and that is the original xbox Duke controller lol but I have big hands. I wish the DS4 was actually a tad larger, but I am sure aftermarket grips will come out soon to help me out with that.
I bought three games:
Killzone - I am not overly impressed with yet because single player is capped at 30fps and shooters capped at 30fps rape my eyes. I am hoping multiplayer with its 60fps helps me out, otherwise its getting traded
Madden 25- I am actually happy with next gen madden. I like the step up to 1080p and the new animations and footwork are nice. I have resigned myself to the fact that EA is incapable of producing a full physics based, non canned animation, football game a long time ago so I was fully braced not to be overhyped for M25 next gen.
NBA2K14! HOLY COOOOOW! The graphics and fluidity of NBA2k14 are un-friggin believable and I am not a basketball fan at all. In fact, I can't really stand basketball....it bores me, but the graphics and gameplay have sucked me into the create a character career. This game was my wild card choice in Targets 2 for 1 deal and it is AMAZING. So glad I picked this up!
