TheBluenose1972 1,405 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Aye, that's the planJust a bit miffed it happened 13 days after the warranty expired.. Argos are usually pretty good with returns so hopefully they let it slide.Aftter 2 PS3's dying on me, and 3 360's im expecting my Xbox One to go any minute now Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance with the PS1, I went through so many of those fucking things....Had to sit it in all sorts of mad directions to read discs.Back in the day i never had any bother with the Nes, Megadrive, Snes, Commodore 64 or Amiga...Saturn, Dreamcast & Xbox worked flawless as well.

Iakona 2,260 Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Argos were useless.Sony were great.Explained the problem and the lack of warranty but they were still more than happy to help. Will get it posted off tomorrow and should hopefully have it back in a few weeks. TheBluenose1972 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will get it posted off tomorrow and should hopefully have it back in a few weeks.Sony were the nuts when my PS3 got YLOD outside of warranty and the same day I got made redundant! I had a brand new one in 48 hours delivered to my door and the courier took the old one away. Huge reason I will always stick with them Iakona 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don81 2,837 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Going to swap out far cry and AC black flag at g force today. Will probably go for Battlefield for acbf but can't decide what to get for far cry. Torn between shadow of mordor, alien, evil within and AC unity. Thoughts? Really can't decide...

The Godfather 71,870 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I'd go for Shadow of Mordor if those were the choices. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calikeo 18 Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Cheers for the suggestions - think I'll get Shadows of Mordor - the nemesis system sounds great!Can get Watchdogs for about a tenner on eBay so think I'll pick that up too.Some of the games in 2015 look absolutely amazing - new Uncharted, Bloodborne, The Order, The Witcher 3, Arkham Knight, The Division, Battlefield Hardline - think I'll need to postpone my wedding!

TheBluenose1972 1,405 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 First Impressions....Feels like i bought a PS3 again...Everything seems so similar when you turn the console on and it even shows me PS3 games in the storeWhy does my console light up white instead of blue? Looks really cheap do you need to change it in settings?DS4 much much better than DS3, not as good as Xbone controller, Thumb keeps slipping off the analog stickPES looks so much better than Xbone version makes it a more enjoyable experience.Driveclub... physics are so bad, Rain looks amazing but disappointed in it especially with DC fans bombarding the internet how DC is better than Horizon and all the reviews were wrong.Still to download The Last Of Us...Im sure i'l love that!

TheBluenose1972 1,405 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Never noticed the blue booting up...The white does look a bit shit compared to the blue Sony used in all the pics to promote the fucker...Would look ok on a white console i guess.
