    Mine has been quiet so far although it's new and I did read that they made some changes to newer models that results in less fan noise.

      Cant prove it but this game spins the fan more often and louder than 15.

      That's what I thought was pretty cool about the PS4 - quieter than the 3 but guess not.

            I'm sure it'll run much better on the new PS4K

            But yes, mine does this as well. Worried it's going to shut off one day.

              Does anyone in this thread stand their PS4 vertically?

              I lay mine horizontally, and it's been blowing that fan real hard.

              I thought it was because I was using a physical copy two years ago.

              MLB 15, I went digital...still loud. This year? Still loud.

              So it just occurred to me that maybe it's because we're laying it down, which could make the PS4 retain heat.

              I'll go and test this theory as soon as I send this post.

                Nope, still as loud as ever...though I did see one thing I've never seen my PS4 do.

                When I hit the Home button to see if the controller was still charging, somehow it actually displayed a question mark over the battery symbol. I've never seen that before.

                But that's more the PS4 itself than The Show. Still thought I should bring it up.

                  I just think The Show renders so much more geometry in a given shot with the stadiums. Rocket League is the only other title that gets the fans going, and even that is toned down slightly a few patches ago. The Show definitely takes the cake when it comes to fan noise though.

                  One thing I did notice, is that in FIFA, if I go into instant replay at Real Madrid or any really big stadium and go to an angle where a lot of the stadium is on the screen the fans start to crank up. It's completely quiet from the gameplay angle which is just players and field more or less.

                    I tried this just now. Search any AAA game like Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto V and add "fan loud."

                    And you'll see how much of a non-issue is and you shouldn't worry about in 99% of cases. If your PS4 fails because it got too hot, then it was going to fail anyway no matter the game, no matter what you do.

                    Just keep it on a flat hard surface and don't put it in the oven. It'll be fine.
