I mean to me the remaster just looks like how it looked on PC when it originally came out cos I had a good GFX card at the time so I'm not sure why they'd bother.

Probably QOL upgrades for higher resolutions at a bare minimum, and they added developer commentary bits as well.

Unplugging it for one minute didn't work but 5 did? I don't understand why it worked or how it stopped working in the first place but problem solved.

So $11 seems pretty ok for Arkam Knight, but, is the season pass any good? Im only interested in story elements, i do not care one bit about costumes or challenge room type stuff.

I d/l'd the new remote play app that came out today and idk if im imagining it but it looks way higher res and way more responsive than it used to on my laptop. very very happy.

you needed to fully discharge the internal capacitors or whatever to get it to do a clean restart. people recommend unplugging and holding the power button for a while to speed it along

I plugged wired headphones into the controller, that's basically wireless unless you're doing something crazy while playing PS4 games
It's still a wire to think about either way, and the volume doesn't go high enough for me, since if I am using headphones it means I want to listen to something at high volume inside the reality of apartment living.

Edit: like drunk and playing Battlefield 4 while listening to Touhou soundtracks.

The story bits are all pretty OK. Not great, but if the SP is on sale too for cheaper than the main game, I'd say go for it.

If I leave my PS4 in rest mode for a few days, it will sometimes just turn off and do what you described. I also have to unplug it for a few minutes and then it works after plugging it in.

Do you live in an older house? I just kinda chalked it up to having lovely wiring.

Nah it kind of owned because I was extremely tense for like the whole loving time and then I got to the end and was like, "oh." Great soundtrack, great 90s aesthetic, and great way to mess with expectations.

Sorry, guy.
Really digging Don't Starve Together. But as you all know, Don't Starve is kind of a long game of Progress. Not a quick-fire pick up and play experience. So how is the "server /world" handled? If the host quits after a play session is the world gone forever and thus the progress of all participants? Is there a way to keep it persistent so if everyone stops for the night and comes back tomorrow, they aren't starting from square one?

Get season of infamy and maybe the Batgirl story. Most the other stuff is challenge rooms and skin packs.

I finally decided to open up my Jet Engine PS4 and dusted the hell out of it. It was easy and it turned on just fine. I updated it and popped in Witcher 3. So far, no noise. I'm pretty happy about this.

The update didn't break Corn Love Forever at all, rest easy A Cop.

System software 4.0 includes a PS4 migration tool. Isn't that something people have been wanting for years now?

Nice, so I can keep my PT demo when/if I upgrade to a Pro.

Has anyone tried out HDR since that was included in the update. Do any current games even have that available or is it just some streaming content?

Also, I am new to the thread so I am sorry if this was hammered out 10 pages ago, but what is the consensus on the Pro on 1080p TVs? Worth it for FPS and/or graphic improvements? Still waiting for more details? I would like to wait for a FF7 remake edition Pro, but if games like FF15 run smoother or have better graphics, I may just bite the bullet now before the resale value of my launch console drops too much.

The minute thing is just a general guideline with electronics for waiting for capacitors to fully discharge and the flash memory (if it uses it) to clear. You probably just needed an extra minute or two for it all to properly reset.

Devs are free to spend the Pro overhead as they wish or not at all (with some constraints like FPS parity in multiplayer on both PS4 and PS4 Pro). At the announcement event they showed a handful of games that have more foliage, higher/more stable FPS, supersampling, etc on Pro at 1080p. You might want to hold out for a little while and see how devs take advantage of it
