PlayStation 4 Discussion

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

So piggybacking off of my prior post about jumping on that Best Buy deal, I had a question about running two PS4s in the house. I had planned on moving the old PS4 upstairs and putting the new Slim downstairs. I know I can keep them both running off of my PSN login, but does it matter which one is set to be the primary console? And will we both be able to play games at the same time while logged in on both machines? Say for instance I wanted to play some Destiny downstairs and the wife wanted to play Uncharted upstairs. Is that possible with both of us logged into the same account?

Thanks guys.

Your primary needs to be whichever PS4 multiple parties are using otherwise they can't acces any digital content from their profile, including add-ons, preorder bonuses, etc. Both PS4s also cannot be logged onto the same profile simultaneously.

For my house, I have the living room set as the primary with my profile and my wife's. In the man cave I have my PS4 with just my profile.

Ok, so if I create a new PSN profile for my wife and activate the old PS4 as primary, she can still access all of the digital content on my PSN profile?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Deal was taken down - good looks on the images, DickDalewood

Now we'll definitely see what happens. They may have FINALLY realized the error.

You got it!

Just keep in mind your personal non-primary PS4 must be connected to the internet to acces your content.

I don't use headsets of any kind and never looked into any of them. You guys know better than I do when it comes to all the technical stuff and headsets, online gaming, etc. so that's why I asked.

Yeah it uses a USB dongle, it some sort of fancy 3d driver for "simulated surround sound."

Works pretty darn well, tho, imo

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

My best buy order just shows pre-ordered and processing. Is that what everyone else's is?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

What else would it say? We just pre-ordered it and it's still processing right? It says the same thing on my 2K preorder.

Thats what mine shows as well

Something tells me we are about to experience some "damage control." I dunno how these things work but the deal was taken down from the website

Yep, we'll get em. I don't know what everyone is flipping out about - they had the bundle explicitly for sale and it should be honored.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

I'd think if they were going to cancel the preorders, they're going to have to do it before they start shipping and cards start getting charged. Nobody wants to deal with that. So it's going to have to be in these next couple of days.

But it's been well over 24 hours at this point, and the deal is taken off the site and still nothing heard about any cancelations.

I'll be surprised if you guys get that deal. Chances are that Best Buy will just cancel the pre-orders and refund everyone what they spent. It's happened before. Whether it's a glitch, misprint or just flat out mistake, it usually gets cancelled and refunded.

$300 for the brand new PS4 Slim, Uncharted 4 AND a $160 headset??? That makes the console only $140 with a free game. If it sounds to good to be true, it usually is.

Not flipping out, just didn't know if the payment should have posted already. There's a hold on my credit card, I guess the hold will be there until I pick it up.

Yeah 140 with a game is nuts. Heck that would be a good price for a ps3 lol.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Best Buy is going to have a ton of cancelled ps4 slims if this turns out to be a bust.
