So as the title say, is it worth to get it in 2026? The PS4 PRO seems to be in a very clean conditions. I've seen others post PS4 PRO for around 190$ so is this deal worth it or should I skip it (Used PS5 is currently selling for 550$)

Hello! So one of my friends is selling his PS4 since he doesn't use it as much anymore and it's just been gathering dust in his home. I asked him if it's possible for me to check it out first and test it sometime. He agreed, but this would be my very first console ever. I only ever grew up with a Gamecube and a PSP. And now I own a Steam Deck, a modded 3DS, and a secondhand PSP but I've often considered buying a secondhand PS4 in order to play Bloodborne and The Last Guardian. I also bought Hollow Knight (one of my fave games) for PS4 a few months ago to have it as collection. When he brought up that he's selling his console, I've been really interested! And he's selling it with a really good collection of games for just around 100 USD which feels like a steal and too good to be true lmao I think he's trustworthy, but just in case. So I just wanted to know what are some things I should test and really look out for?

Oh and I also read about cockroaches being a thing w the PS4 and I hate those little fuckers. I'd hate to bring that to my apartment, so I'm curious, how would I check that? Would I have to open the PS4 or get it cleaned somewhere?

Thank you in advance for any input! Also, my apologies if my flair is not correct, please lemme know so I can edit it in any case :)

Hi,

So, the Toy Story Double Pack released yesterday on both PS4 and PS5. Has anyone bought the PS4 version and can confirm how the games run and look? Is there a PS5 upgrade? I'd rather get the PS4 version because it plays on both consoles, but I can't find any info on how the game performs. I suppose it should be fine since the game also released on the Switch 1, but I would still like to read some opinions.

Looking for the original music from the 2015 Dynamic Mount Fuji PS4 theme. Please help!
Hey everyone! I’m hoping someone here can help me find a little piece of nostalgia.
Years ago in 2015, I had a PS4 dynamic theme called Dynamic Mount Fuji Theme, released by Smobile in February 2015.
It featured a beautiful view of Mount Fuji overlooking a lake, with tall grass gently blowing in the wind. But what I remember most was the background music.
It was incredibly peaceful, almost ethereal electronic music with shimmering synthesizer sounds. The closest comparison I can make is something like Kitaro’s music.
I used to leave my PS4 running with this theme playing while I fell asleep. There’s something really nostalgic about it for me, and I’d love nothing more than to hear that music again.
Unfortunately, I no longer own a PS4, and despite searching online, I haven’t been able to find the original soundtrack or a video featuring the correct music.
Does anyone still have this exact theme installed on their PS4? If so, would you be willing to record the background music for me? Even a short recording would mean a lot.
Here’s a picture of the exact theme:

Just to clarify, this is the original 2015 Smobile theme, not the 4K Mount Fuji Sunset theme.
Thank you so much to anyone who can help!

My PS4 was recently affected by a power outage that corrupted some system files and left it stuck in Safe Mode. After reading the available options, I decided to go with "Restore Default Settings" since that claimed to restore the console without deleting any user data.

Restore Default Settings: Restores the PS4 system to the default factory settings. Restoring default settings won’t delete content on console storage such as games, apps, screenshots, video clips, and saved data.

At first, this seemed to work as expected. The system came back up, I reconnected it to the network, logged back in, and my games and captures were still there.

So imagine my surprise when Saved Data showed as 0 KB.

My best guess is even though local save data is supposed to be linked to your PSN account, fully logging out and logging back in creates a new "ID" that means you no longer match the data and can't access it anymore. I have no way of confirming this though.

Consider this a warning for anyone else in a similar situation.

Was a good weekend ! I took apart my PS3 Slim and my PS4 to clean everything replace the CMOS batteries, and replaced the thermal paste. Went very smooth and fast. Also put a 1 TB SSD in. Runs great now.
I’m really happy everything went smooth. I love my PS3 and 4 so much.

Okay, so I know this may just be me since I don’t really play fighting games all that much (or at all), and I know this is a relatively “old” game, but I just got this game on Wednesday but did anyone else find the PS4 port almost impossible to play due to the controls just not being responsive at all? Like I swear I had to skip like half of the tutorial because the inputs that I was doing (that you literally HAVE to do in the tutorial to be able to progress to the next) just wouldn’t work for me at all? And even now when I’m playing the story, Batman just won’t do pretty much any combo I’m trying to pull off. The guy won’t even do a ‘square, square’ combo, and I don’t know if I’m just pressing the buttons too fast or not fast at all and it’s really pissing me off irrationally. Did anyone else have this problem or experience anything similar while playing?

I never expected to see this day! The full game is now playable with a mod outside of PS4 and PSVR, and works with a Dualsense controller.

>Gran Turismo players! Update 1.72 will feature 6 new cars, Sportsland SUGO Circuit, a new "Car Concierge" service for ordering Used and Legend cars, and many more features.

>This will be available for free beginning October 14 at 11:00pm PDT / October 15 at 7:00am BST 3:00pm JST.

Mine was Guardians of the Galaxy. I went in expecting a decent superhero game and ended up loving the whole “bunch of losers becoming a team” journey.

There were about 400 releases last year. This year(although not finished) we have only seen about a quarter of it. So we'd probably see around 120-130 releases total this year.

Going by last years trends, next year we will see less than 50 probably around 30 releases.

I replayed this game three times and each time it was beautifully beautiful but I was surprised that no one knew it

For me its heavy rain.......💎

Guys can you suggest me some game that can be played without stress and trigger points.

PS4 Slim Deep Maintenance Guide. This comprehensive, highly detailed guide will walk you through the process of disassembling, cleaning, and replacing the thermal paste, Laser Clean and of course replacing the CMOS Battery on the PlayStation 4 Slim CUH-2016B.

The PS4 pro, under load, could exceed 85 degrees celsius, and this wouldn't be considered overheating, the console was designed to run this hot.

Other consoles could reach these temperatures but they would be considered as overheating.

I’ve got a ps4 pro and I usually just put it in my backpack, but I’d like to get a carrying bag that can hold it and ideally 4 controllers without it putting pressure on sticks, do yall go any recommendations? I’m nervous about some of the cheap ones in case the straps break or something, thanks!

Like it sounds crazy, but I can’t stop hearing it.

I searched about it, and the average players at a time is like 2 or 3 in the world. If anyone still has it, lmk!

I used the persona 3 theme and would like it to be my wallpaper for my computer. I have wallpaper engine, but I couldn't find it there. I can't find any mention of themes on the playstation website. Does anyone know where I could find a download for ps4 themes, as in the ones that came pre-loaded on the console itself?
