    Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

    They do indeed have a cache of PS4s.

    I'm worried that this console could have worse problems than my current one. The auto eject thing isn't a big deal as I just have to unplug it for 5 minutes and it works fine. It does get annoying when it kicks you out of a game though.

      Amazon does have great Customer service! I can't believe this process of sending a new one out before getting the old one first. Very cool!

      Did you get the square trade coverage from Amazon or is this just because you bought it through them? I got mine from Amazon and so far(knocking on wood) no problems

        One thing that is PISSING me off about my PS4 is that it is NOT recording the last 15 minutes of gameplay at all!!! What gives?? Even when I double tap the share button, the little notification pops up showing that it is recording, but then when I go to watch the recording its not there... WTF, im getting pissed..

        Pardon the rant..

          I did not get square trade. I just hit up Amazon chat to try and get a replacement. I asked how long would it take and he just basically told me I'll always have a PS4 in hand.

          Sony customer service on the other hand kept telling me to do the generic troubleshooting that I have done at launch multiple times. I still had issues before and after reinstalling the system firmware. He then told me that I should try once more as "there have been cases where this may fix it." That's when I tried hitting up Amazon to see if I can just get a replacement console. I didn't want to deal with explaining to the sony rep that I have tried the same things he has told me multiple times.

              Someone broke this down a page ago, I think. Just in case you want to double check it.

              But basically, if you hit share to record, your console is gonna start recording as of that point. I believe this auto deletes the previous 15 minutes of gameplay. I think. Could be wrong.

              But if you hit share to view video, you should see the previous 15 Minutes and the console will take that clip and auto save it your drive.

              I guess you need to be aware that it's not auto saving on its own bc then you'd run out of hard drive space very quickly. You have to go into share to have the very last 15 minutes save. And if you want to choose a point to start recording, you need to choose that.

              And if you go over 15 minutes before hitting share again, you'll lose that staring point.

                Yeah.. I know what the share button does and how it works, but the thing is when I do hit the share button it only takes the screenshot, and doesnt show me the last 15 minutes of footage.

                    EDIT 2: I just realized, Amazon has the PS4 listed as backordered, but they have enough to send me a new one?
                    When you eject your disc do you use the button on the system? I always eject mine by pressing the options button on the controller and then press remove disc.

                      I use the controller as well. Each time it auto ejected on me was when it was on standby over night, I came home from class and my disc was hanging out, and just recently, I was in the middle of a 2k game.

                          Amazon does that for every defective return, immediately send out a replacement next day air, pay return shipping, etc. Love the way Amazon handles a defect.

                                Nintendo does this as well.
                                When my Wii went bad right after release they sent a new one and all I had to do was us that box to send in non working one.

                                Either way..that's great service.
