I'm sorry, I don't think that nope was loud enough. :P
NOPE.

I'm getting freaked out enough from just playing Danganronpa, so Silent Hills (is this an entry in the Silent Hill franchise, or...?) would be way too much.

It's a reboot, a return to more survival horror roots as opposed to the crap it's been the past few games. Headed by Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro.

Actually scary, as opposed to the other games.

Sony's set to drop the v2.00 update on October 28. One of the new features that will be added is Share Play, which allows you to play a game online with your friends, even if you don't actually own the game in question. The system limits each session to one hour, but there is no limit on how many times you can launch Share Play.

There are three aspects to Share Play: Spectate, Assist and Play. Or, as Sony calls them: Share Screen, Hand over my controller and Hand over another controller:

- Share Screen is a simple spectate session, where other people can simply watch you play, so long as they have a PS4.

- Hand over my controller allows the other person in your Share Play session to "take the controller" and help you through parts of a game you may be having trouble with (this can also essentially function as a trial mode for people if they are uncertain on a particular game). This feature requires the host player to have a PlayStation Plus subscription.

- Hand over another controller allows you to play multiplayer games with friends. Simple as that. Both the host and guest will require a PlayStation Plus subscription.

I like the sound of this, honestly, but not sure how well my Internet will handle streaming the games in.

Even with shit internet I'm sure there's some games that'll work well regardless of stream quality. There any turn based games on PS4 yet?

There's Child of Light, which is somewhat turn-based. Not sure about any others.

So v2.00 came with a few bugs. The most problematic one being the console locking up while in standby/rest mode. AKA you can't turn it on. Twice I pulled out the power cord to be able to turn it back, risking corrupting data before I decided to search for a solution on the third incident.

So, for anyone suffering the same problem (courtesy of Sony):

1. Keep your finger on the small-ass power button until the console beeps and turns off properly, indicated by the normal red light.
2. Touch and hold on the power button until the consoles beeps a second time after the start-up beep to force the console into safe mode.
3. Connect a DualShock 4 controller using a USB cable and select the fifth option, Rebuild Database.
4. This should fix the problem, but it may take a while depending on how much content is on your system.

EDIT: Apparently this doesn't fix the problem. So, we'll just have to wait for a hotfix.

...This thing has a power button?!
I haven't turned mine on in a week or two so maybe it never updated for me. I'll just wait until the next update to turn it on.

IGN article about PS4 getting a price cut in the UK. GameStop UK has already started. Very nice!

I didn't see a topic for it, so I thought I'd use this one to state something most people probably saw coming anyway: The Order 1886 is kind of a fucking joke.

The biggest kicker? Going by Jim Sterling's estimate, the game is only six hours long. Over half of that is fucking unskippable cutscenes and QTE sequences. As it stands now it's literally the Sony equivalent of Ryse.

Well that sucks. But that sounds kind of like Beyond: Two Souls, which was still pretty good. You could think of it as a 6 hour movie for the price of 3 bluray movies if you wanted to justify it.

If I wanted a movie I'd buy a fucking movie.

In other news, Sony completely restarts a competition for anniversary PS4s due to somehow deleting the entire list of winners and not having any system in place to recover them.
