Their audio files were hard copied into the fmv's and do to poor Japanese development practices, all source audio files were routinely deleted and lost.

At least in Japan a free FF15 soundtrack is available for PS+ users so I figured what the hell but it's...18gb? What am I missing here?

Because it contains all the retro soundtracks, I would guess?

Alright, Sony's twitter account is useless, so let me ask it here.

Console: US PS4 Slim
Game: European Final Fantasy 15
PSN Account: US

Will I get hosed trying to buy the DLC for FF15?

yeah your DLC has to match the game's region. you can just make a european account, buy the DLC on it, set your US ps4 as the euro account's main system, and then switch to your US account to play the euro ff15 with its euro DLC

Alternatively, I can tell Amazon Now to get hosed and not have 3 PSN accounts.

I'm looking into buying a PS4 for christmas, it will be a combined gift for my son and for my own birthday on the 30th. Right now a store near me (Media Markt in the Netherlands) has the 500gb Slim for €222,- and it looks like that is the best deal around right now. Should I jump on this deal or are there better deals around? So far the PS4+game bundels haven't really caught my attention since none of the games included (I hate shooters on a console) look interesting.

If you're not interested in the bundles, the deal you found sounds good to me. Upgrade the HDD later on, if you want.

I'm not sure if getting a Pro is better at this point, it would seriously suck if the VR technology gets released and won't be usable on a Slim.

The VR unit in its current iteration works with the OG PS4. The Pro provides some optimization and additional bells and whistles, but using VR does not require it.

Just got 10 free Sony bones that had to be spent by NYE.

Picked up Bloodborne for $7.99.

Not sure if I'm going to like it but at that price I'll give it a fair shake.

No, but I now see that it has some really shittily compressed video of gameplay that plays when you play the tracks, so that explains it. Also it's a thing no one in their right mind would want.

It's a great game! Stop by the thread sometime, it's still pretty active and we love new players there.

Mad Max definitely echoes Just Cause 2 where it was loads of repetitive gameplay with a couple of stand out parts. Like the buried airport is pretty neat but it is also just one mission and you don't get to explore it or go back.

Getting the last of the unlocks with very little to use them on was a bummer, too :(

Anyway I'm looking to get on that $250 Uncharted 4 500GB bundle, and I'm wondering how I'd make these headphones and this mic all pipe in to the jack on the controller. Would I need a splitter of some kind? Or am I missing something painfully obvious and it'll just work out of the box :downs:

For some reason I decided to buy some Cup Noodles; it's been years since I've eaten them.

They're all right, I guess (after I added my own meat, egg, vegetables, and sriracha)

You can get a splitter that takes a 3 component jack into an stereo jack and a mic jack. I don't know if it works with the ds4, though. They are pretty cheap, so I would try that before any more expensive solutions.

I've been switching between a Pro and a Not Pro as I play Hitman, it runs fine on both. The Pro version is a little sharper, framerate is more stable, textures stream in more quickly.
