Forums - Sony - PS4 At its current state is the worst console I've ever owned

Buying a console during the first year is never great if you expect it to have an "end of life" amount of games to choose from at bargain bin prices, just never happens. As for stuff being a scam and the games you buy all being expensive... well again buying stuff day 1 is going to cost you more than a player choice style of game down the line, this sounds like you're suffering from a string of uninformed purchases really over the ps4 being a bad system. If you spent a few mins online you could find out which ps1 games were available on the system before you bought it... so you will have to stick to ps3/pspgo/pstv to play those on a big screen... or a psone/2 hah.


The feature to play old games doesn't exist and Playstation Now has you streaming games after renting them that means you have to stay online the whole time and lag a lot. 

Playstation Now would be great if it was like Netflix where you have a subscription plan and you can play all the games in the service. I actually think that would be a killer app for the PS4. But no you have to rent every single game and it's the same price as buying them

Am I the only one who is crazy about old games?


My current game of the year is suikoden and I'm playing tales of xillia games a lot and loving them.

 

I'm excited to play yakuza 5 the most out of everything announced recently so no I'm with you.

The menu is pretty stupid. be specific

It's not something I'd see on a console. again be specific, what is the kind of menu you would expect to see

The games you played on disk for some reason stay at the start menu the vita has this same issue. You don't know if it's an install data or a downloadable game. there is no difference on the hdd between an install and downloadable game, when you first run it install regardless of it being a disc or download. Actually, downloads simply install.

Where is the "play while it downloads" feature?  I wanted to play any game at all but I was just looking at downloads the whole time aside from playing driveclub (which is crap by the way) I have singstar downloaded it's the same thing as the ps3 app which is nice. just click the game, once enough is downloaded it can play

And then i realized something.... WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE Ps1 GAMES?!? In the PS store

WHERE THE FUCK IS THE "DOWNLOAD HISTORY" thing? where it says downloads

I wanted to download suikoden and I wanted to see where all my stuff are. downloads and applications

There isnt any so I'm just stuck playing generic overpriced shit like far cry and just wait for bloodborne to release. check the ps store, its like the first button you see

It is honestly the worst console I ever bought and I bought the freaking 3DO at least that one had road rush and need for speed. This is partially why its hard to take these complaints seriously

 

I know i'm supposed to play ps4 games on ps4 but jeez it seems they released the consoles way too early and were just playing the waiting game. PS4 has plently of games, PS+ gives free games monthly.

Everything seems to be unpolished, generic and extremely overpriced. Be specific

And you can't even play your past games. technically you can.

no! you'd better use Playstation Now! (which is a huge scam at its current state.) It is expensive, but those are the price Sony set for the service. Had you not gotten rid of your old consoles, then it would be cheaper.

 

Honestly if you're on the edge of buying a PS4, forget it. Wait about three years at least from now. The PS4 is horrible at the moment. Not even bloodborne is going to be worth buying this console. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean others won't

Have a nice day.

I didnt read the whole thing but did you mention that the majority of the library is gonna be last gen ports and hd remakes?


If they removed the ps1 and ps2 "classics" for that reason then it is probable. I mean they anmounced final fantasy vii for ps4 like it was a new game. What the fuck.

Your basic points are:

-Where is such and such I can't find it OMG this sucks if I can't find it that means it doesn't exist. Worst console.
-Where are the PS1 games on my PS4. I bought a PS4 just to play PS1 games. Worst Console.
-Far Cry is overrated and every other Ubisoft game therefore PS4 sucks.
-Bloodborne will suck so the PS4, naturally, also sucks.

Didn't it take forever for them to put ps1 games on the PS3?

To bad OP is alone with his opinion and part of extremely small percentage of gamer who buy console only to hate it or maybe his lying and pretending to buy the console (even if he show to us by pic maybe he just rented or borrowed from his friend or family)

PS4 is a meter of "fact " is a good one if you really love PS games, like it from the beginning, or have a game to play, read the user review , the manual , hearing from people what is inside the box, what is the capability, ask the person in retail store. did some research before buying.

I am seriously questioning OP intelligent in buying product, or questioning his intelligent overall or his ulterior motive, do his opinion worth???

I say " NO "

I felt the same way about my 3DS... but then it got great games.

I disliked the 3DS a lot because the main shtick is so gimmicky (3D) it even hurts my eyes. 

 

Then Pokémon got released. And suddenly it's my favorite console/handheld ever.

PS4 sucks because reasons .

I don't know about anyone else here, but do you not do some research when investing in a 400 Euro console? It's right at your fingertips. Also, why not wait till the inevitable Bloodborne PS4 bundle to take the plunge?

I still don't get why it is selling so well
