Lol! It's fucking virus people..

If a problem is happening with a system that's not supposed to be there.. it's a virus

YLOD on PS3 was a virus. RROD on 360 was a virus. "Disc read error" on PS2 was a virus.

If some shit that you dont want happening is happening, it's a virus. If it has to be "fixed", its a virus.

wow...you definitely need to change your title if that is your understanding of a virus.

First of all, if you have a Destiny bundle Ps4 than it's less than a year old, so it's still under manufacturer warranty, second of all, learn what a virus is, what you have is a manufacturing defect or a bug.

Ugh. This kinda stuff is what makes buying a new console the most painful thing ever.



I'm now filled with determination.

Dramatic drama is dramatic.

I smell a troll.

Or someone who clearly doesn't know what a virus is.

The key to avoid these kind of problems is very easy! Just do what I do and don't use your PS4!


This is working out for me too lol.

I know how to fix this one! Happened to me yesterday tried ramming the disc in repeatidly (stupid i know). Anyway put the console up with the power and hdmi facing down and the disc drive up. In a second the noise should stop and the disc drive will be functional. Pretty freaking weird right?

You're a virus

I also dont think its a virus. I think its obviously a little hardware mishap. Online someone talked to a sony customer service person and they told them to do what i said. The person said is was a disc tray arm issue just gets stuck apparently putting the console vertical unstucks it.

There isn't anything to play on the PS4 that you can play on other things ATM, so it shouldn't be that big of a deal anyway. Lol


Things to leave in 2014 - "PS4 has no games"

And this is why the PS2 is the best selling console of all times. I have 5 friends, FIVE!! who at least bought the console twice because it broke up. Playstation has always been a hardware that breaks a lot.

Well PS2 was known to be unreliable. But Sony consoles after that have had much lower failure rates.
