It says on the 12th and the 19th. I have a question if I may, regarding the new PlayStation collection. So as it has been advertised to be an added perk for those that own PlayStation plus. What may we expect moving forward? Is it something where games will get added and have the list grow bigger with time or is it something where you have x amount of time to redeem such games and have the list change? Adding on for ps5 owners what can we expect to happen with the monthly games?

Can we expect down the road to be able to redeem four games? Two for ps4 and two for ps5 as more games come out? I would assume so via the PlayStation Store on a web browser. Yes we can redeem Bugsnax without owning a PS5 yet. Is that right Nick? It never hurts to ask, since PS5 is bringing a time of change for the Store and Plus.

So a previous PS Now game.. Sony you are an absolute joke!!!! Most people worldwide cannot afford games and will enjoy these…so cheers! You are so clueless. Because not everyone has PS Now, why are people so god damn entitled. I dont have PS Now, so maybe i want these games. Vanlischtenstein: You need to stop acting like these games are free. You pay for the service that gives you online access and games to play while you are subbed.

Take Epic giving away free games every week. That is free. The problem is its every month. There are obviously going to be times where there is crossover which is fine, but they need to try and make it fair to people who have all their services too. In trying to get headlines with big name titles for PS Now they created an issue where they made a service worse but it looks better to the media. And in turn it creates an issue for PS Now. And finally Vanlischtenstein, man you need to not sell out to big corporations so much.

PS Plus was formed as a game subscription service so to say they are not obliged to give games is idiotic. You get to try it on now and get it on plus to continue playing. I feel sorry for you guys.. Just log in on a web browser to add Bugsnax when it becomes available. I missed a pre-order due to the botched roll-out. I assume I have to find one before January to get Bugsnax which I hope to do anyway. I posted this above, but here ya go: Yes we can redeem Bugsnax without owning a PS5 yet.

It was nice being able to redeem PS4 and Vita games despite not owning them, when i bought the systems i was full of games. Yes you will be able to redeem the monthly games for PS5, same as the older consoles.

I am wondering the same thing too. Any idea? Also why just one PS5 game instead of 2? I hope I am wrong about the latter and that we can add Bugsnax PS5 to the library through webstore even without owning PS5 day one, like i previous days. My guess is that it will be. As for the PS5 version, well, it lets them still make some sales for the PS4 version, and serves a bit as an incentive for a PS5 purchase and shows that Sony is focusing on the PS5 too.

As for the first point, the original PS4 Pro hard drive seems very damaged and must be disposed of. The clicking noise is a very clear sign of the end of its life.

As for SSDs, they are light on power, so with the power shortage your console undergoes, the SSD can easily accommodates to this situation. I reckon this is a very logical explanation for your case, and eventually specialized tests can prove it right or wrong. Thanks for your quick and helpful answers. I will try to test a different hdd when I get the chance and hope that it works, to make sure the problem is not caused by a power issue.

I could bring up the reasoning against this theory, that with the original hdd it still went through the reinitialization procedure many times without any errors and still even booted up when I already got the error message with the laptop hdd.

We very much appreciate that. So, thank you! So my data on my ps4 is constantly being corrupted to the point that even my cloud saves seem to be corrupted. If I were to get a new ps4 would my cloud saves be corrupted or would they work again?

Because this kept happening I finally caved and deleted and reinstalled. So I finally reinitialised my ps4 in hopes this would help. It did not. Would buying a new Ps4 help me? I strongly ask you to full format the PS4 internal hard drive first before doing anything else. This process helped many users revive their hard drive and restore its original performance. I ended up just going with a new hard drive.

From what I was reading on the internet it was worth it. And so far since having it it definitely has been worth the money. Regardless thank you for the advice. This site has given me a lot of info.

I am glad that you eventually found a resolution for your issue. Thank you for your feedback that might help some readers. Trying your luck is the only way to find out. Hello so my ps4 at first it was lagging and then once I was updating the system software and the power cut down and then entered safe mode than I fixed that and then I could only download one app because my ps4 keeps lagging like crazy and now it keeps freazingII and turning off and when turn it on it says system software problem and database problem and I managed to fix the database problem in safe mode but it keeps all the problems again why?

Is it because of my hardware or somthing like that? Your PS4 hard drive got defective by the power outage. It seems a hard drive failure.

I have an extended storage device if you think that would have any affect on it. If your PS4 is old, this is one of the common issues that occur to the system.

The hard drive no longer receives enough power to run it at its fullest, therefore it generates errors. Fixing that needs a good experience and not every technician can do it and in many cases it may require that you replace the power supply or even the motherboard.

The quickest and easiest solution for this situation is to use an SSD. Why does an SSD help? Still, thank you helping me out. I really appreciate it. Yes, it seems you have a serious power issue that an SSD was only a temporary solution. It might be the power supply that needs fixing. Can you please do us a small favor and tell us, when you get your PS4 back from repair, what the problem was and how it got fixed?

For some reason when I would leave it in rest mode, I would come back the next day to it saying I turned it off improperly and it did this multiple times. The next step should be is to full initialize the PS4 and reinstalling the PS4 system software from scratch.

On my PS4 Pro I had an issue with corrupted data messages and frequent crashes, but only on a certain downloaded game and on certain ships after a game update.

Redownloaded numerous times with no fix. Did the database rebuild, no fix. Checked for PS update and always had the same update available after numerous executions. Followed the directions after borrowing a USB to download to a stick in proper format the second time.

The first question is does the port matter for reinstall? Second, when plugged into the rear it is coded cant access system storage, does this indicate the hard drive needs replaced. Bear in mind I have to borrow a USB and any cables necessary for connection. I only play 5 games and watch a little Youtube here and there and just want it to work.

Your continued assistance to the entire gaming community is greatly appreciated, especially by us less tech-savvy old schoolers I remember when Atari was released and the undisputed champ lol.
