Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Ugh I'm conflicted on the Pro. I have the PSVR so that makes me want to get it. I also have a non HDR 4K tv so I'll at least see some benefits graphically but it has no 4K player. I might wait until Christmas.

Ethernet cable.

Can you please explain this. How exactly is connecting to the internet going to help me transfer the actual games themselves so I don't have to download them again? Or am I just way off?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

FYI, on top of the other restrictions you also can only have 1gb of mods in Skyrim - http://www.bleedingcool.com/2016/10/...l-limited-1gb/

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

i am hyped for the Pro, I have 200 paid already and will sell the current ps4 to pay the rest....Super stoked

I'm hyped too. Less than three weeks to go!!! I already have Battlefield 1 and will be getting Titanfall 2 and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare in the next two Fridays. Once those three games are finished, onto Watch Dogs 2, Final Fantasy XV, Mafia III and Rise of the Tomb Raider. It's going to be a stacked three months to end 2016 for me.

Unless you can do an HDD transfer/swap without having to reformat it, you won't be able to get the games back without having to re-download and/or reinstall them.

The Pro's stock hard drive will be replaced with my Samsung EVO 850 SSD so im thinking once I install that and format/update it, would it be possible to then take the current hard drive that im using now, attach a transfer cable to it and copy the games onto my laptop and then copy them from my laptop to the SSD?

On the positive side, there's only two full digital games that I'll have to download again - The Witcher III, it's expansions and The Last of Us Remastered. All my other digital games are Indies and PSN games.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

The FAQ I read said you could transfer your games, saves, settings, etc through a Ethernet cable.

How does that work exactly? Does the Ethernet cable hookup from one PS4 to the other PS4? I don't see how connecting to the internet will transfer the games over unless they're just being smartasses and we have to download them again. A few more weeks to go and we'll know for sure.

Yeah I don't get it either but I think ps3 did this to.

Not that I ever did the feature, but from what I remember it did (this was either when the Slim or Super Slim came out), it kind of acted like a "cut and paste" rather than a "copy and paste."

You would upload your data temporarily to this cloud thing, and then you could place it into the new device and HDD. It would be gone from both your original device and the cloud as well.

Maybe I am misremembering. However, because it's through Ethernet, I wonder if things have to "re-download" as well or not.

Yeah I had one ps3 die on me YLOD and got a new one but had no idea how to back any thing up back then so I lost ever thing and out side of getting a new one after the YLOD I never had a different ps3 to try it with or anything. So I really don't know how it works I just remember hearing you could do this kind of thing with ps3 to.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

I caved and preorded the PS Pro. I had some Amazon money so it will only cost me $180. I'll probably move my current PS4 into the bedroom.

Get the Pro now and a 4K monitor or TV around black Friday or Christmas.

Just a suggestion.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Have they said if MP games like Battlefield 1 will look better and have a stable framerate on the Pro? I know it can't have a better framerate than the standard PS4 but just having it stable shouldn't be a unfair advantage.

Also is there anyway to transfer all of my games over to the Pro or will I have to re-download all of them?
