For all we know the only reason sony would ban you is for having HACKED accounts, so his ban surely isn´t about gamesharing per se.

So..

I bought the alienware alpha i3 for $400 shipped. Once I get the console, I can call dell and ask about price matcing micro center which had the same thing for sale at $300, dell should offer $60-$80 credit back, making it ~$340 for the PC. I'll probably buy another stick of ram for it, 

I've listed my Xbox one + games on craigslist for $375, should be easy to sell.

I understand that it's not a computer that will run games at 1080p, ultra settings but honestly I never wanted that. I wanted something that was comparable to a console but was a PC. This should do the trick just fine and supplement my PS4 just fine

Excited to play some PC games. RTS, League, old steam games.. just excited to finally have a PC at home instead of a chromebook

Graphic comparsion for those who care: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6NWOaM0NW8

Well with this one, you can't upgrade the GPU (which you cant do with consoles either)

Besides that I don't know, form factor? It's pretty small (wii form factor)

You can upgrade the CPU, ram, HDD and whatnot as you'd like.

What games do you have for sell to me?!

Many PC gamers are upgrading random pieces of hardware to meet the required specs of whatever new games they need to play. I suspect the big drawback on the compact ones is that upgrading is limited. Not just finding the right size/compatible hardware, but in addition the customized proprietary console interface might not work with the upgraded hardware you are adding.

I have been wanting to add Steam to my pad, but the bloatware called Windows is a big drawback for me. The Steam-box is what I am waiting for, because you can just use SteamOS directly and it will natively work with the new Steam controller. My PS3/PS4 backlog is big, so I can wait till the launch coming late this year.

I currently use a MacBook Pro Retina from 2012, dual-boot with both OSX 10 (Yosemite) and Windows 7. It overheats horribly whenever I game on it, which isn't often as a result of that (plus I prefer a controller). At the time, I realized I prefer OSX over Windows, and haven't heard anything positive from any Windows 8 users. My former love for everything Apple has rapidly decreased since Steve Jobs sadly passed, and Apple has simply lost their touch IMO. In fact, I intend to be replacing my iPhone with an Android soon. I personally would only consider purchasing a new PC that either runs on a Steam OS, or once Google improves their OS to run as a proper PC OS. But that's me with a large backlog of PS3 and PS4 games, so I don't feel the pressure to buy a desktop/mini PC right now. I have the luxury of waiting around to see Steam boxes being released and decide then. If someone was buying a PC for gaming today, an Alienware with Steam intention could be the best option.

So I just bought a 2TB HDD. What do I need to do now!?

Deactivate my accounts, etc?

.

Make sure to grab the firmware that is designed for a new install. There is a link under the original link for the smaller firmware. Have a thumb drive formatted for fat32. You need to create a folder ps4/update I think. It tells you on the webpage.

Cool. So in regard to my resells I'm fine leaving them active as they are tied to the console rather than the HDD?

I have no phantoms...........

 
I just recreated the accounts just like I did when I bought them. Worked fine. Just make sure the thumb drive fits on the ps4. I had a weird shaped one that didn't fit.
 
Hey guys, sorry for being off-topic but i need help w/ something

On December 2014 i bought from user Jdub_ smooth, a resell slot containing all dlc for Skyrim. I never activated the account at my PS3 but checking at Sony site i realized that both slots were activated so someone else is using my share. When i bought from Jdub everything was ok.

I contacted Jdub for info to try to track the other resell and solve this issue. I found the original group: https://www.cheapassgamer.com/topic/296884-cag-psn-gamesharing-5-findcreate-a-gameshare-group-and-gameshare-faq/?p=10322573

Skyrim DLC Bundle (1st week price)
$7.50
1. GogetaSS4 (Host) ---> Jdub_smooth ---> mark77
2. brimah (Info Sent) ---> Edzor ---> evozakira ---> ????
----------------
$3.75
3. boosted02gt (Downloaded)
4. snow vixen (Downloaded)

My slot came from Gogeta, the other original resell was Brimah. He sold to Edzor that sold to user evozkira. I'm trying to contact evozakira but he doesn't sign on CAG since 20th March.

Also, in my research , the last person selling a share of Skyrim dlc in the thread was Gamerdad. He is known as a scammer, idk the details but has something to do with selling PSN codes to Boosted. So i'm afraid that he was the other resell holder of this account.

So, how i should deal with this? I know that some of the vets doesn't post here anymore but if anyone can give me some advice i appreciate. Just send me a PM, thanks!

Cool that makes sense. I actually find both OS (OSX and Windows) usable. Windows 8 is actually much better than windows 7 and I'm not sure why it has so much hate. People mention the metro (tiles) user face being a problem but that is easily disabled and for the past 5 months I haven't even seen it. Windows 8 like windows 7 except smoother and better. I hope Windows 10 will continue in that direction.

I'll see myself out now, seeing that this is off topic.

I haven't been buying shares here because of the whole phantom fiasco and the fact that I found it easier to share an account with a friend in real life.

If there ever is a game we disagree on getting, I'll probably try one of these loan sharks :whistle2: Qdizzle that seems popular these days.

 
Test phantom has been locked. This rules out several conspiracy theories.

- Sony is not banning individual consoles, or doing a ban wave, period. My console was already hit with the locks, and a manual ban/ban wave would not target the same console multiple times as that would be hugely redundant. Instead they'd put a permanent lock/ban on it.

- My test phantom did NOT have the resell slot active on another account. So as has been stated before, this has nothing to do with resell logging into the account.

- The first time my phantoms locked, I was using rest mode. This time I was shutting down completely. Same result, which shows that the power save option you're using does NOT matter.

- It's all pointing to the obvious...there was a new checking option/protocol activated with the 2.50 update. There's nothing you can do to avoid having your phantoms lock, other than being completely offline. I highly doubt this is something that Sony is going to fix, because why would they?

Sorry guys, I think we can rule PS4 phantoms as officially dead.

Thanks for doing this, basically answers most of the what ifs.

Only hope is timeshares or locked spots, either way gamesharing is pretty much dead. Time to go back to gamefly.

Did you happen to use the demo at all? Or did you just wait and see what happens?

The reason I ask this is when I hady phantoms, I started them up at least twice. Once when I got up and another later on the day. When they locked, I had not done that at all. I was concerned about upgrading my hdd that day. I tried backing up my hdd then cancelled out and they locked.

I have two theories. One is that by starting the phantom daily alleviates the check and two, there is someone on these sites who works for Sony and is doing this. Most of us have our psn ids on here. Everyone who has talked about their phantoms lost them. Myself included.

Or I'm just paranoid lol.
