Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

It's an RPG, so I guess they worried about the story being spoiled I guess. Lord knows Assassin's Creed Syndicate is being spoiled all over Twitch and Youtube from people who got the game early.

That's kind of a ridiculous reason. I think you should know the risks if you're willing to watch a stream.

Yeah, if you're watching a stream or a walkthrough on youtube, you should know that there's a very good chance of being spoiled. I was watching a two hour video of Syndicate (three more days to go!!!) from Eurogamer and the guy playing was actually doing a stream of it and says right in the beginning that spoilers will kick in once he starts doing the story missions. So I watched for about an hour, seeing a lot of the side stuff that's in the game, the upgrading and skills as well as crafting (yes!!!) and just seeing London in-game and then stopped when he started the story missions (sequences).

So yeah, people should definitely know beforehand so that can't be the reason especially since I have already watched walkthroughs of people playing through the retail version of Tales so it has to be some other reason. Definitely weird though.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

It's just another Tales of game. They're almost all the same. It's kinda like AC: If you have played one, you played them all.



The funny thing is as far as I've seen, the game was not really praised by the reviewers, and they could use the community to help them to show off their game (even if people interested in these games are already playing Tales of for years).



It kinda reminds me of the "No demo available for this game" decision that some publishers adopted in recent years.



It's like "if they test the game, they may not like it, so by making a demo available we can potentially hurt our sales"...

I'd tend to agree with this. Tales has its audience for sure, but I don't really think this one is groundbreaking enough to pull a whole lot of new people into the series (aside from simply being the first to make it to PS4).

It seems like a great game for a fan of the series and JRPG's in general though, and I'll have a lot more to say on it once I've spent more time with the game.

One thing reviews hammered on the JP game for was putting story content behind a DLC paywall, but that DLC in question was included for free with the Digital PS4 version released Tuesday(and others as well, I'd imagine).

They don't listen to fans enough to have confidence in their game

Ubisoft needs to abandon the European English talking set ups because people aren't interested

When they say give us a samurai game don't say that's been done before. They're telling you what they'd like to see

If they say we'd love an African based assasins story like egypt for example don't tell them we'll do London instead

Its like shooting yourself in the foot and wondering why it hurts

Now alot of these companies are scared of social media because a lot of them aren't in it for great games just money

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

OK guys so I bought a 2tb for the ps4 and used my small screw driver to remove the 4 screws from the cradle holding the hard drive. But only removed 2 screws as the other 2 my screw driver messed up the + on the screw and now it wont unscrew. I cant remove those 2 screws since the creast on the screw is all mushed up and it wont screw to the left with the screw driver. Any ideas>

You sound like my wife trying to explain something she did.....yikes! You used the wrong size Phillips now you have to try and use a different size to catch any part of the crosshead or the "+" as you like to call it.

Isn't it clockwise to loosen? I don't understand how I messed up the screw...

Unless they're reverse thread screws its always "lefty loosey, righty tighty"



Edit : my bad, I see you're mocking/imitating lol.

Sorry my joke failed. I should have bolded the wife part and put my post and quotes.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Thanks man!

Ill be keeping a close eye on it... Ive done all the disc eject fixes too...

It was weird, my PS4 beeped then ejected the disc.

I had this exact issue with my ps4 and it was absolutely frustrating that it occurred right after my warranty period...Tried all the different fixes BUT found this particular fix below that has completely solved the issue:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_0m_rDtG7U

But instead of doing the 'gold plate scratch', I put a piece of duct tape (VERY small piece - you will see what I mean once you see the gold plate) so that if I ever want to sell/trade in my unit the eject button can still be used properly once I remove the duct tape...

Now for the past 3 months or so, no beeps, no ejects...no frustrations! Give it a try my friend and hope it helps!

Some guys on the other forum told me to to scratch the plate too, and they said the eject button still works after this. I didn't try it.



Also, is Madden 16 still worth buying? I would have to pay full price for it, so...
