Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

As much as I've been enjoying my console I'm very disappointed that my psn account was hacked this morning. Thank God my credit card wasn't used, but overall disappointed with Sony's terrible security. In the 8 years I was with Xbox I never had this happen to me. At this point I wouldn't store any personal info on Sony's psn.

I'm curious if you're playing Fifa?

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

How are the controls like? As much as I love pinball tables I've never really been tempted by a game.

I enjoyed playing pinball in the arcades long ago and picked up one of the pinball games on the Xbox many years back. I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun they still were. Played Zen Pinball with my wife for quite some time as well, so will pick this up as well.

My only squabble about the game is that I would much rather have the real tables, as opposed to made up ones....and I didn't really like the older retro tables they released.

I would love to have the old Terminator 2, Simpsons, Jokerz Wild, Batman, etc...tables.

Almost bought the actual T2 pinball table, but couldn't find a local mechanic in the area that knew how to fix them if it broke.

I used to work for Data East/Sega Pinball. The machines are not that hard to work on. Only problem is when PCB go bad.

I've only played the FIFA demo, but I have FIFA in the wrapper not opened. Why? Is there something about FIFA going on?

Pinball Arcade actually uses REAL old tables! Ripley's Believe it or Not, Harley Davidson, Terminator 2, and so many more! That's my favorite feature of Pinball Arcade over ZEN (or Pinball FX if you prefer).

A lot of people get hacked who play FIFA apparently, compared to those who don't. That's anecdotal evidence obviously and I don't have numbers.

Origin is not very secure and the worldwide audience and popularity of Ultimate Team = more people trying to hack those accounts.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

It's "luck of the draw" IMO.

I had my MS XBox Live account hacked twice. Once with them getting all my info including CC info and opening up to CC accounts and one phone account(to the tune of $800.00 dollars in charges the first month).
MS didn't catch it...it was the cell phone bill(to my address)....
While with the huge PSN problem a few years ago...I went unscathed(knocks wood).

That could be because of my identity theft...I went a little above and beyond with security though.

A reminder by bigfnjoe had me checking my MS account(I haven't been looking since my 360 bricked over a year ago)....and was shocked at how many attempts are made(it shows you the attempts in the security section),.....so someone is always trying and all it takes is a little opening in any kind of account.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

The Pinball Arcade demo is a lot of fun and I want to purchase, but I can't figure out the difference between the pro season pass and regular version. I like that this game uses real tables.

From what I've read, the pro pass let's you tweak tables like an operator would in some ways and turn off the "family mode" which doesn't allow cursing that some of the machines had in real life.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Has anyone had any issues with the sound in Pinball Arcade? Mine is muffled for some reason. It's only that game. I've deleted and reinstalled it too. No change. I'm also having some difficulty finding a camera view I like.

Don't pass up that awesome game because of the still incredibly slim chance you'll be hacked.

I hear you, but I've had my ps4 for a month and was told to change my email twice and I did and now hacked. I'll give it a try..I just need to learn the rules.

I can't even get the season pack to download. It's not recognizing me as a PS+ member, so it gives me an error and won't add it to my cart. If I try to do it in-game though, it adds it at full price. Hopefully it gets fixed because I want to get this at the discount price.
