Thx. Worst case I lose 50$

Essentially yes. To put it mildly if its not the hdd, the repair cost from Sony to replace the motherboard is likely not economical and better to put your money towards next gen instead.

[Dodkrake]

Oh baby... Maybe media markt sneakily announced the prices as rumors. They don't usually do this!

 

[Shio]

Dude of course it is fake, it says 750gb, Series S is 512Gb, that was a dead give away!

And the fact that the Series S looked a lot different than it really is... like a different shape and size.. and the fact it looks really nice.

 

[NEbeast]

Thx for the response. Don’t want to derail the thread so I’ll make it quick lol.
It started when I was almost done completing Spider-Man PS4. The game takes a couple minutes to boot up. Then while playing it would freeze during swinging parts every other minute and slowly textures would slowly appear and pop in.

Now the menu is so slow and sometimes crashes doing basic tasks. Some games get stuck on loading up. A smaller game like psychonauts was working fine though.

I tried all the safe mode options. rebuilt the database, factory reset, initialize etc. But same shit. It let me download fall guys ( which I’m dying to play!) but won’t load up.

my last option is replacing the HDD. Looking for the cheapest option because ps5 is around the corner and I’m not even sure if this will even fix it.
Spelunky is coming out and I need the PS4 for that!

thx again

It sounds like a hdd problem. They are easy to replace.

 

[Entroyp]

Oh nice, a base is included.

Also, just went to check the original page from July and the prices were 499/599

Its also not the Series S shown. And says concept.

 

[7thedon7]

And the base comes in the box? Nice

 

[kyliethicc]

The stand is included, confirmed. Good. Hopefully its a USB-C to USB-C cable.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

That’s crazy, it’s like expecting Bo_Hazem to only take one wife.

He may only have Eyes for one console, but his virility will not be contained

Yeah, problem is it's expensive. I told my wife that I wanna marry the whole world if I can, but I'll save that to the heavens if I manage to. With all the xbox fanboys committing seppuku because of my memes, I might get fucked by Lucifer in hell instead.

 

[BlueXImpulse]

I never doubted the stand would come with it. I don't think the console can balance on its side without it.

 

[ethomaz]

Is this a major retailer over there or more of an indy place?

Probably the biggest.

One of the stores become popular worldwide with that gif where people where fighting to get a PS4 and ignoring XB1 happened.

 

[FunkMiller]

HDMI 2.1 cable i’d imagine?

 

[mejin]

When you remember that Xbox's worst enemy is nothing more and less than themselves.

So fuckn true

every damn time haha

 

[kyliethicc]

HDMI 2.1 cable i’d imagine?

Of course

 

[Birdo]

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Would have been a more balanced, consistent approach imo.

Lots of mistakes in that image.

 

[Mr. PlayStation]

it's nice and a tad bit worrying that you need a mandatory stand to even place the console horizontal

 

[kyliethicc]

I never doubted the stand would come with it. I don't think the console can balance on its side without it.

Yeah it was obvious the stand is custom and part of the PS5's design. Looking at, its pretty clever. They built 1 stand that can be used in either orientation. It had to be included.

 

[FranXico]

Oh nice, a base is included.

And the base comes in the box? Nice

The stand is included, confirmed. Good. Hopefully its a USB-C to USB-C cable.

The stand is not an extra, but necessary for normal use. It must be provided together with the machine.

 

[BlueXImpulse]

I too would like to join the Holy Cult of FUD!

 

[kyliethicc]

it's nice and a tad bit worrying that you need a mandatory stand to even place the console horizontal

It lifts it up and allows airflow. Also, have you seen the PS5? You wouldn't be able to lay it flat without a stand. Its not a box.

 

[kyliethicc]

Just like they planned. Long term vision.

 

[Kagero]

Also mentions that he/she cropped out the price

That's probably him being sarcastic dude, don't read much into it!

It’s worrying it needs a stand? Lol

It’s worrying it needs a stand? Lol

Isnt next gen all about balance?

 

[hemo memo]

It’s happening isn’t?

Stability already?

I travel buddy and i always carry my playstation with me and what if i forget to carry the stand

Get ready for Wobblegate 2.020

PS4 Wobblegate: What else wobbles? - GameZone

Ladies and gentlemen, we're less than 48 away from the launch of the PlayStation 4 and we're just now discovering Sony's new console has a bit of a problem: it wobbles. *GASP*! Seriously, how did someone not catch this sooner!? How could Sony have overlooked something as simple as a rubber foot...

[zaitsu]

[JTCx]

So, it will be the same all over again. Playstation and their exclusives will totally kick ass due to only having one very capable box to design for.
Im OK with that.

Doesnt sound next gen at all. Phil told me

I suppose the same thing as if you forget the power lead or the hdmi lead or the control pad?

 

[kyliethicc]

What if the plane falls out of the sky? What if you forget the HDMI cable? What if a meteor hits the earth before you can go back home and get the stand?

 

[Shmunter]

You’ll need to splashout for in-room porn

Edit: hopefully it’s magnetic, similar to a google max. You get that reassuring clap knowing it’s on.

 

[hemo memo]

lol

Never forgotten those items ever in my three years of constant travel. Did forget to carry the micro usb cable once though

I can certainly imagine how that's going to look.

$1200 for a headset. Looks legit. Edit - nevermind its not USD.

 

[xHunter]

100% a placeholder, i was talking about the headset pictures, kinda messed up with the linking at first

 

[FunkMiller]

HKD I think! About 160 usd.

 

[Gamerguy84]

Hell yea, an instruction manual. Im in.

 

[kyliethicc]

Oh.. if so thats $150. That actually is likely. $150 was PS4 Platinum headset. I expect the same for PS5.

 

[BatSu]
