This is actually a good thing, if its true that it warns you.


It is, so long as it isnt something that happens a lot.  But this is extremely unlikely as I doubt people will place their consoles in a small perspex box with zero air circulation (almost a thermos flask).

Nice to see sensible responses in a thread of this nature.  Shoe on the other foot?  doubt it would be so civil.


do you know if microsoft have a similiar thing for the X1? doubt it would ever need it seeing how big it is and how much they focused on ventilation but just got curious

Yes X1 does have it, I read a thread about it a couple of months ago here on VGChartz. I figured PS4 might have it also given it's, on paper, more vulnerable to heating issues.

With that said, this system could be a pain in the ass if it shuts down the consoles frequently.

agreed, it would be a real pain if it keeps doing so, specially on the hot days of the summer, however i doubt it will, considering that after just 2 seconds after they opened the container the PS4 went back to working perfectly right away. good to hear MS is doing the same thing.
