    Did you open up the console (bottom cover) and clean out the fan with compressed air?

    Mine had a lot of dust and was running a bit hotter as a result.
    No. I haven't yet. I just never remember to buy the right screwdriver when I'm out

          Are you talking about through a AF TV or is it an actual app on the tv?

              That's the bad thing about the stick, you can't plug ethernet directly in.

                  I watch Vue everyday and have never had any issues,and this includes my wife being on the pc at the same time,as a matter of fact the service has been great for us.
                  I was only going by the Sony FAQ on what they recommend.

                  As others have said already, it is definitely an issue of wired vs. wireless in most cases as well.

                  However I just got a new 5g router, and it is quite lovely to see 58mbit on my my phone and tablet with I do speedtests, just as good as wired, however the wireless in the PS4 is not so good. Wired however, I finally get 50mbit on PSN, where the old router would only average me out around 32mbit.

                  I keep the PS4, PS3, Android TV, and PC wired. Tablet, phones, and laptop wireless.

                    Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

                    Is anyones DS4 controller's left analog stick twitchy or spastic?

                    Even light touches to the left stick, the on screen indicator (Mlb the Show's batting/pitching cursor, Jikkyou Power Pro Japanese baseball game's batting/pitching cursor) convulses profusely. The controller is only a few months old. I had to retire my original day one controller because of the same issue to the left stick especially with NBA 2k16.


                    Is it remotely possible to use the DS3 controller with Playstation 4 console?





                    edit: apparently, blowing on the left stick fixed the issue. found the following youtube video. however, it didn't work on my first day one controller.

                        I got it from Amazon Japan. Another available retailer is Play-Asia. There's several version on Amazon Japan (need to create a whole separate account to place an order. I couldn't log in with my US amazon account).

                        For whatever reason, they weren't allowed to ship the least expensive version to the United States. I had to grab the second least expensive one -- which allowed me to input my California address. I would like to have gotten it sooner (took about 20 days or so), but I didn't see a quickly shipping option.

                        EDIT: If anyone is wondering, this is what I was talking about with the jumpy, spastic left analog stick. My day one controller is a lost cause but the fairly newer controller corrected itself with the method above about blowing into the left analog stick.

                        UPDATE: For anyone wondering, I decided "what the heck" with my day one DS4 controller with the "broken" fidgety left analog stick. The blowing method didn't work. But the following "advice" from the video worked. Turning a "crapped" out DS4 controller to a perfectly normal working controller again.





                        Since I only play sports games, and that requires mostly the left analog stick function for movement, I decided to swap out the right "wheel-y" thing with the dysfunctional left one. And that right there completely fixed the problem. So instead of just one good controller and one basically in the gutter, I now have two perfectly good working controller.

                            About the same amount of dust that mine had.

                            Is yours a launch console as well?

                              Yes it's a launch console and so far it hasn't gotten to the lawnmower sound.

                                I picked up Dishonored: Definitive edition for like 12 bucks at GS. I'm really enjoying it. I know it's a port of the PS3 version, not a remaster, but it still looks and runs pretty smooth me.

                                I keep switching between an all stealth approach and a "kill me all!" approach, can't decide what I like better
