Can you select games to pin to the start and leave the rest on the library area?

I thought I read that it's your 15 more recently used games/apps that are on the start area and the rest in the Library area.

But I guess someone with access to an updated PS4 can probably tell you for sure.

Just because it's a Rockstar game. I've never actually played any of the Rockstar games I have. Though I forgot to include LA Noire and the Max Payne games. So I have 11 games by a company despite never having played a single one of their products.

Deadly Premonition is not a Rockstar game.

my recruiter has literally (?) dropped off the face of the earth since my last interview a week ago. can't get her to return any of my email/calls. so, I have no clue how it's going. thought I was done, but I guess they haven't traumatized me and my wife enough yet.

That sucks :(

Hopefully you find out something soon

(It seems like they're sort of disorganized with their hiring process lol)
I think you got it though, I would hire you : D

That be cool. Also, I know Sony has to push Music Unlimited and Video, but I wish they do implement in a future update the ability to choose what content is displayed in the start area (looking directly at The Playroom).

I got a Fire TV Stick too, for $19 bucks I figured why not. I'm hoping it gets hacked to run full blown android or maybe a version of linux. It kind of stinks it can't use usb for power, I'm guessing they did it since the specs are a little higher than a chromecast and couldn't get it to work on all TVs with a usb port. I'm actually wondering if I should order a 2nd just for the hell of it. Lol.

On a side note if anyone needs more HDMI inputs I have one of these which works nicely. It works with whatever device is powered on at that moment.

Kind of glad I kept my PS TV, redundant yes but I love small tech. I'll find a use for it. Even better if Remote Play is improved. I'll be able to PS4 it up in my office. Just need to crack the box...lol.

If I had known Amazon was coming out with a FireStick I would have never bought the FireTV 5 months ago.

I'm happy with the FireTV and am glad we cut the cord for cable. But the FireTV was $99 and I could have gotten nearly the same thing for $20 with the Stick.

I wonder if maybe they'll give you guys free app credit or something as a way of saying thanks for being the Guinea pigs?

Also, did anyone else who ordered get an email from Amazon this morning for "looking at a fire tv product"?

The devs are streaming that #killallzomibes game that takes Twitch commands and implements them and stuff.

It actually seems pretty lame.  The things you vote on are way too subtle.  There should be like Rainbow Panda Nukes and stuff like that that are visually awesome and affect the game.

It seems like Choice Chamber does this idea much better. Hard to tell what is even controlled by chat in this, unless I'm missing something

Early adopters always get the shaft! The specs are better on the fire tv so maybe a little more future proof but there's nothing stopping you from ebaying the fire tv and buying the stick either.

haven't had a chance to try it yet, but according to the vita fw changelog you can apparently change video quality settings now during remote play if you're having stability problems.

also, evil within update: the chapter 15 arena is terrific and super fun. all joking aside this is definitely one of my favorite games I've played this year. wish I had more than 2 magnum bullets left for what I know is the impending end - any chance there'll be a few more after the arena?
Click to expand...
The Evil Within has definitely been a surprise for me, despite how the plot isn't really resolved by the end and basically functions as a tease for the story DLC later on.

As for the Magnum bullets, I think you're screwed. Did you fight the two Keepers yet?

To answer your question, I do not see a way to pin anything. I was hoping for the same feature. It seems if you want a certain set then if you launch those 15 it will be those 15. Of course that is a PITA when you add something new.

I was scared for a minute by all those "in single-player" descriptions, but thankfully there won't be any multiplayer trophies. At first glance, the difficult one appears to be Inquisitor.

You got 2 right? Did they cancel 1 or just changed it?
Click to expand...
Yeah I got two. In the terms yesterday it said "limit 2 per account. we reserve the right to change this to a limit of 1 per account." or something like that. So I ordered 2 right away while I still could. When I saw mine were already backordered by about a month, I knew they were going to change the limit at some point.

nope! I think I'm right after the first arena checkpoint (after the ruvik clone spawns with some other dudes). that's ok though. I have enough parts to make 15 explosive bolts which should get me pretty far. I'm ready to be done just so I can get the trade in and move on, but I'll miss it and I'll definitely look to pick it up when it's cheaper down the road for the akumu run and dlc (if it actually adds something).

I guess you always have to read the fine print!

Considering the DLC will let you play as Kidman, I think (read: hope) it really will add something.

And while I don't think you implied you would, I don't recommend making that many explosive bolts, especially with how quickly Keepers close the distance between you and them. There's plenty of rifle and shotgun ammo in the area where you'll fight them, and you can control a gate to give you a bit of breathing room (it's a bit hard to explain in text--hopefully you'll understand when you get there).

 
tylerh1701 said:
Reason I read it was because I KNOW my mom needs one but I really wanted one for my main floor TV too. So I was hoping I'd be able to buy two right away so I checked the terms to see what the limit was.

Good call either way, it's funny at $35 I wouldn't buy a chromecast (don't NEED it) but for $19 it's kind of a no brainer (why not).

It's probably easier to just put breakfuss on ignore rather than fall for the bait

Yeesh. I'm seriously considering gifting some of you a dictionary. That wasn't bait. Gone Home is one of my favorite games from last year. I'm simply mocking an unfortunate criticism I've seen thrown at it.
 
I'm watching a typical Akumu playthrough of The Evil Within (i.e., not that Seraphim guy's no-upgrade/no-key run), and it's so annoying to not see him upgrade the Flash Bolts or use them to "stealth-kill" guys from the front, instead always running behind them after using a bolt. :headache:

I will say that aside from the argument with Topside the other day, I've noticed a difference in your posts lately. Not sure if that's intentional or not, but for what it's worth I like the breakfuss we've seen lately much better.

Whether you care about my opinion or not is another thing entirely, just thought it was worth mentioning.

To be fair, your posts are always very unclear. Considering the stupid shit you have argued in the past I have learned to take your posts at face value. When you have a history of arguing for the sake of arguing (and even arguing for things that you didn't agree with) I don't assume that you are being sarcastic when you say anything. First impressions are a bitch and unfortunately I am not new to this group. My impression of you is that you argue and continue to argue long after everyone else is done, even when you are wrong and that you make comments to bait people into arguing with you. Sorry that I misread your post

 
So if I take a picture of where in stuck in Portal 2 you think someone could help me? :lol:

Edit: nvm, I figured it out now. Let me know for future reference though. I'm sure I'll get stuck

I should play a GTA. I'm not sure which, though. I have:

  • GTA: Liberty City Stories (PSP)
  • GTA III
  • GTA: Vice City
  • GTA: San Andreas
  • GTA IV
Also RDR and Deadly Premonition. Surprised I don't have Bully, actually.
Click to expand...
Since you havent played them yet i doubt you will like the older ones. But if you can try Vice City and then move on to RDR if you dont like it. Bully was a great PS2 game. not sure if it holds up.

The final boss is kind of a joke. The two keepers are definitely the only difficult thing left and even they were pretty easy (*played on casual disclaimer*). I actually loaded them with explosive bolts and it was easy. Like Vig said, the area is hard to explain, but it is possible to run in a circular path that they follow you behind. Just turn around now and again and shoot a bolt at them.

I didn't fight them long enough to notice, but if Pete runs that circular path, won't he eventually run into traps that the Keepers set on the ground?

Also, did you play The Evil Within on PC? I don't see it among the games on your PSNP page.
