I am pricing up a PS4 for Christmas.

I take the slim is just the new version?
Can i swap the HDD out, buy a 500GB and put a larger drive in? Is it easy?
Anything thing else I need PS4 related?

It's the same console just smaller. Yes you can put a larger drive in as long as it's 2.5" - I would recommend 1GB at least though.

I would get a charger dock as the controllers don't have a great battery life. Maybe a headset if you plan on playing games with us?
Is there a recommended charger dock?

Looks like i might be going to game to trade in all the 360 stuff
I'd go for bigger than 1GB to be fair
I've got 1GB, and I wish I had 2.

I suspect I'd want 4 if I had 2, though.

I suspect you mean TB, much as Myp did
You can get them in terabytes?!

Do you swap the drives and the PS4 sets it up?

They plug into the controllers' USB ports and then they just dock on top of the station and charge using the contacts. Hearthly would love it.
Looks easy enough... cheers
What is the difference between a v2 and v4 controller other than 2?

What?

DOn't know where you're getting V4 from.

There is a V2. There is a V4 firmware for the PS4. Wires crossed maybe?

Old Man After thought's controllers seemed slimmer and had a light on the touchpad if memory serves.

Well, the Dualshock 4 is the controller for the PS4. Work out the rest.
Or is the question whats the difference between the Dualshock 4 , and the Dualshock 4 v2 ?

Newer controller , slight change to the lightbar

No, I don't think so. But cheers anyway.
I upgraded my PS4 from a 500gb to a 2TB drive earlier in the year. It's a pretty easy process & 500gb is just way to small with the file sizes of the bigger games.

Headset wise I've got a cheapo Orb xbox 360 style headset off Amazon for £8.

Have you played them all?
All but the first and last PS4 ones, and they don't review that well.
I got a full year of PSN for £49.99 in smyths. Came in PS1 tin, with a £20 PS store voucher.
How does a ps1 tin look? nice

do like the look of hyper void...\


Those ps+ rumour posts are wrong time and time again aren't they?
It looks ok

I have no need for it. Will just take up space.
ah, a nice way to get your monitor on a higher spot .. or something.
It is about the size of a dvd case
If you have no need for it, and don't want it taking up space... then I know someone who will happily have it as part of his collection! ;)

Pm me your addresss. I will pop it in the post.
Quick FYI while I wait for the postman:

1) Hyper Light thing: It's Tempest. A really boring version of Tempest. It's awful.
2) Colour Guardians: One of those games where you are constantly running and have to collect different colours in 3 lanes. Match the colours for max bonuseseseses... Or don't, because it's dull as dishwater.
3) Invisible Inc: Stealth Xcom. Meh but probably alright if you like that sort of thing.
4) Stories: Path of Destiny or some shit. Just...not...very...good, and I've no desire to see any further with all the tedious handholding. Deleted.

The last one is Tiny Troopers which you've all probably played already. I can't be arsed.

So December's PS+ is the worst yet...
"Working from home" today, right?
I work from home everyday. I've just moved from the office to the living room to stare longingly out the window.
I tried all of them last night as well - Hyper light / colour / stories all deleted pretty much straight away.
Tiny troopers seems okay (Cannon fodder feel to it) , and Invisible Inc got me a weird glitch where i got to an area with a camera and everywhere i could walk had a red mark and it would not let me progress , I assume i need to go back but for the tutorial it was not very descriptive.
I also tried "let it die" which is a very weird game but has potential
I did like tiny troopers on the vita. As zaphox said. Nice cannon fodder feeling. But good of the vita as well
