Are there any similar stories of dead PS4s out of the box? I imagine every console has issues with lemons just like cars. Luckily I have never had a console break on me. Ever.

I am doomed.
Yeah, when my friend got his PS4 maybe a month ago he had a similar problem. He started queing up some downloads, battlefront beta I think, and after when he went to use the Uncharted disc that came with it it wouldn't load. Disc drive was shot out of the box.

He was able to just take it back to gamestop with no problems other than a few hours of annoyance though. Nothing nearly as shitty as this dudes situation.

How witty was I with that title?

Was really pissed at the time, mainly cause of the calling in issues I had, but they fixed it fairly quick and replacement has not had a single issue since. I think I wound up getting a little PSN credit out of it too.

i also totally forgot about the tower defense and roadrage ish mini games in ff7. what a crazy game

i think most of us got most of these trophies back on ps1 when we played this game over n over ;)

also i totally forgot about rufus and the turks. rude/reno were so awesome i remember they put them in advent children. nostalgia bomb

 
So assuming Dez Bryant doesn't pull a Peyton Manning and get me -4 points tonight, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Bortles will make the playoffs and all the spots should be set other than maybe some shuffling in the seeding.

 
I decided to keep my kicker in the line up tonight.  Don't need that bad karma going into the playoffs and ruining my chances at my PS4 money.

Thanks for being my moral compass y'all.

Took a bit of hassle but Sony did right by you. I can understand your frustration but cut them a bit of slack since it was right at launch and was around BF. I too had to call them around the same time (to deactivate a PS3 I traded without deactivating). Was on hold for a long time too but the guy made sure everything was working right on my Vita and PS4 before ending the call.

In your case you bought it from Amazon vs directly from Sony. I had an issue with the DS4 on my launch PS4. Amazon chat immediately offered to take the whole thing back. But as you said that would have left me with nothing since they were sold out and in short supply. Second option offered me was for me to buy a controller locally send them the receipt and they would refund me the difference. I asked if I could just buy it from them and get the refund, Sure no problem . Ended up getting a few extra bucks (like $5) back when it was all said and done. Asked if I would get a label to return the bad controller (Sticking R1 or L1 button). Nah just keep it.

These are examples of great customer service (long hold times aside).

Microsoft is an example of shitty customer service.

Glad you stuck it out on the PS4 side and didn't cross over into the darkside. Some day I know I will end up with a XBoner but it will be for a few exclusives only. I am done with MS being my main console.

 
Is that for real? If it is, I'm really pissed at myself that I clicked it.

Even if it is, tell me it's not.
I made it up. Unless I accidentally guessed the story. What popped in my head when I read Therm's synopsis was an old Bobby Heenan insult to Roddy Piper about Piper coming home from school as a kid to find out his parents had moved and didn't tell him.

If your COD crew has it then it's worth it, otherwise I don't know. It's not really a casual game and you have most of the trophies already. I still play it but it always demands so much time grinding.

I upgraded a month or two ago when Target was giving $30 for Taken King disc. Haven't played the Wolf DLC or the Taken King one. Some day I will get to it but one day I was like enough of the grind.

Yeah and the shitty part is that if you don't play it enough to get the good stuff soon, they will change the rules and you won't benefit from all the grinding you did. I still enjoy playing Destiny but not as much since it's not my priority game. Destiny pretty much demands that you make it your priority.

 
Sage and anyone else who cares:
Today's daily challenge appears to be glitched, max distance is 659.99. Something janks up the Murphy AI. Free diamond cups all around!
Mild, thank you sir!! Just like Zimmbobway, I found my game, unwrapped it and played.

Got the trophy, and you are correct. Never would get it without that glitch.

Took the next daily challenge, completed it in 65 seconds. Then looked at leaders. They were getting it done in less than 20 seconds. Screw those guys!!

What's this? Rayman Legends? And is this glitch still live? :whistle2:k

 
That's pretty awesome. Gotta love calling the guy who beats you at your own game a cheat.

Also interesting to note he was an asshole later in life and died in apopka. The birth place of another asshole. Warren sapp.

Working on clearing out a minefield in Mad Max and I noticed that some bozo on the other side of the map had parked his car and was coming after me.  His path was going to take him right across the mine I was about to defuse so I said "fuck it, lets see what happens" and backed up a short distance.  Sure enough, like the dumbass enemy he was, he ran right over the mine and blew himself sky high.

 
Picked up Shovel Knight from the library. This thing has a thick manual!

Returned Need for Speed Rivals and Talos Principal. I'll put in for them again.

I still dont get how you guys all got the plat so easily though, I just looked in the challenges and I have a good 20-30 that don't even have any progress in them at all. No way am I grinding all those out at the end of the game for sure. I will take the collect-a-thon trophies and call it a day.

How did you manage that? KH3 wasn't even eligible for the 15% discount.

I never received an email from that one Amazon rep regarding the 15% discount she'd apply after UC4 shipped, but I at least have the chat transcript. I wouldn't mind getting another discount on KH3, though.

I honestly don't know. I sent an email after chatting and the rep apologized for the confusion from chat and said they were having problems with the promo applying to existing orders so they just modified them. I thought kh3 did show as eligible the day of, otherwise I wouldn't have included it.
 
Gator the save file for just cause is only 20.98 mb. Normal size it seems. But the game does save every second it seems. So there is def something to your logic. The last save took a while for the save indicator to turn off too.
 
And fuck you guys for getting discounts for complaining about dumb shit. I have real issues and never get more than a sorry if that. I'm such a Tyler
