Just unwrapped a PS4 - now what.....

[paul1087]

Don't have a game to play!

Cant find any free demos to play either - can anyone point me in the right direction?

Take it to game and swap for an xbone :-)

Hook it up and set up a PSN account, even without PS Plus you can download war thunder still (I think).

If you are really desperate you can buy via PSN Store, but the games are more expensive, I'd wait until the shops open tomorrow.

Buy PSN+ subscription, download some free games.
Or buy a game to download, I recommend Last of Us.

Also, you posted the thread three times

What kind of mean Santa got a PS4 with no games!?!?

As above, join PSN and download one, tomorrow get yourself down to the shops and hope for some bargains. Battlefield 4, Far Cry 4 and The Last of Us.

Just to add, it seems PSN network is being a bit temperamental at the moment, it and xbox live was attacked last night, it was ok earlier but it seems it may be under attack again, also lots of new consoles being switched on. So if you get errors just be patient!

That's a good assessment!
I guess it's temperamental because its Christmas day and thousands of new owners like myself are trying to register on the PSN network and receiving server errors. I've given up now and will try tomorrow.

Get drunk now and buy games tomorrow...?

If you don't want to leave the house, a certain South American forest type retailer has FC4 for about £25.... And a few other games reduced too.

[Silent1]

purchase an annual subscription to PSN+ it'll be the best purchase you make, atleast 2 free new games each month all for £30 a year, as well as automatic patching, cloud game saves and more.

Conclusive proof alcohol kills brain cells, kids. I spent the last ten minutes scratching my head trying to work out this 'cryptic' clue

And had to edit post for it to make sense.

Two groups of self-described hackers have been fighting for nearly a month over a threat to take down the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live on Christmas Day.
