No. How much did that set you back? How is it compared to the ps3? Any cool, new features?

I traded in my old xbox 360 and ps3 and a few old pokemon games and got it without paying cash. Came with the latest batman game(which is much better than expected) and picked up bloodborne with it.
It doesn't really play any better than my pc, but it is a substantial upgrade from the ps3. It is much faster(frames, menu, market) and has built in features for streaming and recording.
The controller is the most comfortable I've ever used. I'm shocked at how much better it is than the previous generations. A few things that piss me off:
You cannot play your ps3 games on it. There is a subscription service that allows you to play ps3 games through streaming, but you still have to pay for it even if you already own the game.
You can't turn that fucking bright ass light on the controller off. You can turn it down, and it's still way to bright.
Overall, I think it was worthwhile considering I haven't touched either console in over a year. It supports bluetooth, but It won't let you use your ps3 bluetooth headset with it. Instead, they want you to buy another instead of doing a tiny patch that a 10 year old could program.

#1 you shouldn't have traded in pokemon games. Ever.
Also, the light on the controller does come in handy in some games. It acts as a life-bar type thing in some games, where it turns red when you're dying. Some indie games use it as a visual enhancer for whats on the screen. Hohokum gets pretty psychedelic in the dark after a few bong hits and the light show from the controller.
I recommend the witcher 3 BIG TIME if you're cool with lengthy RPG's. Play it on easy if you're not sure, it's still quite a challenge until ~level 20. Wolfenstien was the shit if you like FPS. God of War 3 remaster just dropped. Also there's a remake for The Last of Us and an Uncharted remaster coming, and Uncharted 4.
If you like old school platformers I think you can cop rayman real cheap.
Firewatch, The Last Guardian, Tony Hawk 5 are all on my radar. There's a game called ABZU coming which looks trippy as all fuck, I'll probably dose up for that. Not to mention No Mans Sky which I plan on secluding myself in a dark room with drugs all day for.
-------------------- Of course it's happening inside your head. Why should that mean it isn't real?

Ya I actually jumped the gun because of E3 lol. I wanted to make sure I had more than 3 or 4 games I am going to like and never use it again like my xbox 360. PC is still my main platform but I am digging the PS4 exclusives. I don't play many fps games usually because I can't use mouse and keyboard comfortably for that genre. I'm interested in that steam controller to see if I can fix that problem.

mine came with a microphone ear piece
the controller light doesn't bother me I can't even see it when I'm holding the controller but you could always put a piece of electrical tape over it
I currently own (and recommend) Dying Light MKX Batman: Arkham Knight
I have preordered: Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain Star wars: Battlefront
GTA:5 and the Last of Us are both really good but I have them for the PS3 and I'm not buying them a 2nd time

Ever try using inverted controls? I sucked at fps until I tried inverted. It just clicks with my brain that way.

The earpiece that came with my ps4 absolutely will not fit in my ear. Not even a little bit. Like, who the fucks ear is that big? The mic on it is too sensitive without noise cancel too, so it just isn't useful for me.
The problem with my fps game on the PC is my mouse. I have to use a trackball mouse so my wrist doesn't hurt. Maybe too much time on the comp or wacking it :/

The last star wars game i played was shadows of empire for 64 but man that e3 gameplay of the new battlefront game looks so fucking awesome
Im finally done with xbox crap. I play pc but if i was gonna buy a console id get a ps4.
Also mortal kombat x looks pretty badass.

Not gunna lie, I'm not feeling the destiny hype. Holy crap, Batman:Arkham knight really has me hooked. I shocked that it is so much fun.
I will never buy another fighting game again. I play it for like 5 matches and never touch it again.
I'm sure all will fall under fallout 4's shadow though lol

Nice OP, I just bought a ps2 today with gta3 and Vice City and a new controller for $70...currently playing gta3, it's been years since i last played, i'm in heaven..the nostalgia. I have the radio on as background audio right now lol. Such good games.
I'll probably get a ps4 when i finish these games.

Haha, nice. I just got a ps2 a little over a month ago. Mortal Kombat armaggedon, San Andreas, and Tony Hawk (project 8 was all they had).

This headset is great and works for both, as well as PC.

having a hard time finding a PS4 for a price i can afford but i would really like to own one. right now my game collection is almost non existent. all i own is a 360 that has a fucked up tray and rarely opens and a playstation 1 i bought specifically for the one game i own for it... final fantasy 7.
before my roommates moved out they had an xbox one which i hated but it had netflix so i want a ps4 for the same reason. and because playstation is much better then xbox imo

P.S. welcome

you know i love how people smash down xbox and ps online because it cost 60 a year to use there service... a service that cost them alot of money because they have to pay for a shit load of internet to connect there servers to and also so hundred of thousands of people can connect .. then the cost of running the servers, the power it cost to run it... The cost keep servers cool and pay people to keep them up and running and fix when not working... updating with faster parts.... it not cheap for them to run that stuff. and plus xbox gives us two free games a month with gold member ship to help off set the expense.
