Thanks. Think I'll wait a little longer until I really need the increase in HDD space. Drives keep getting cheaper and though you both say the disassembly from the housing is easy, I don't like all the warnings I'm seeing in the instructions on the Amazon site and don't like the thought of voiding my warranty before I even use the drive. I can wait until an internal drive hits that sort of price point.

Full post in the PSN Games thread, but for September, I was right : Velocity 2X will be a PS4 Playstation Plus September freebie along with the Kickstarter game Sportsfriends.

I much prefer coop play which is why I like Warframe, have Diablo III, getting Destiny and plan on Assassins creed: Unity. Now another one might end up in the mix and the game looks stunning....

Stoked for Velocity 2X! Sportsfriends less so, but it might be interesting.

Not a bad month, but I'm kind of spoiled by the PS3 freebies. It has to be almost time for a retail title. If nothing else, I think they'd be smart to release the multiplayer half of Killzone. Might sell some DLC.

The first 10 seconds of that video are the most British thing ever.

For me to truly love my PS4 I need a great racing game. I'm hoping Driveclub and/or Project Cars will be just that.

Same here. I'm super bummed about not getting to play Forza Horizons 2 this year (not picking up the 360 version), so I'm hoping Driveclub, Project Cars or The Crew will fill that void. It's also going to be weird not having a NFS game this year. Haven't they released a game every year since the 360 launched?

As is the name. There's no way it gets released in the states with that title. Sounds like a placeholder at best.

Why are you not getting FH2 for the 360?

re: The PlayStation 4 / PS4 Thread: Still Going Strong

So I bought some xbox one replacement sticks. This is the auction

http://www.ebay.com/itm/201099175629...84.m1497.l2649

The ones that got some and already replaced, did you find yours to be of the same quality as the xbox one? The ones I got are cheap, don't have the same high quality edge as the xbox one and feel like they would break under heavy use. I don't plan on putting these in.

For those that bought them, which ones did you get?

re: The PlayStation 4 / PS4 Thread: Still Going Strong

I'll see if I can find my auction when I get home. Edit: http://www.ebay.com/itm/181472897240

Mine came from China and look and feel exactly like the ones on the demo Xbone controller at Gamestop to me.

I think I'd be wary of anybody selling them in multiple colors FWIW.

I'm done with new releases on last gen consoles (which is why I'm skipping Borderlands as well). And since it's going to be a different game than the XB1 version anyways, it isn't worth it to me.

For those doing the thumbstick swaps, do the XB1 sticks sit higher than the PS4 sticks?

Just slightly, yes. Maybe a mm or two.

Definitely not a bad thing IMO.

Ok. I didn't know how different it would be from the XB1 version. I'm probably going to be too busy with my new PS4 to care anyway

I bought the same one from the link above last week. I have been using it for a week. I think it looks and feels exactly like the Xbox One sticks.

I thought about buying another set from eBay (seller in China) but would the quality of the Xbox One sticks be the same as the other sellers?

I doubt color plays a part at all. If you're buying $4 thumbsticks from China/Hong Kong it's probably a safe bet they're not official X1 sticks.
