I received my PS4 this evening :proud:, plugged it in all ok for the first 10 minutes then it just switched off and all i get now is a blue blinking light :Mad2:. No matter what I try it's not booting up. What a disappointment. I will be ringing asda up tomorrow demanding a refund on both the game and console. Even the sony viao laptop i bought recently for £800 is giving me problems with the wifi. I'm not buying a Sony ever again. Anyone else PS4 fooked?
 
Hi, that's a shitter that mate i feel for you, turning off after 10 minutes or so sounds like the over heating issues some people have had, worth checking the hdmi port though make sure nothing's bent in there, theres a couple of prongs i think it is at the bottom of the hdmi slot and they can get bent, but would of thought you wouldn't of had a picture straight away if that was the case, maybe worth a look though,
 
i've checked the ports, the HDD, no issue I can see. the console does heat up really quick mind you that could be the problem. oh well I'll see if I can get a replacement from asda if not i'll be demanding a refund.
 
Thats the only thing at the minute, asda won't have any stock left. So annoying to wait for something then it ****s up right away.
 
Tell me about it. oh well will have to wait a few months for the next batch of ps4. Got a full refund today from Asda no hassle.
 
that aint good, at all :(

Makes me think though, wait until Christmas day when all the kids/adults are unwrapping their new PS4/XBone's and just wondering how many will fail either with your problem or the XBone dodgy Blueray drive? Now that would be gutting!

It will be Ho-ho-Nooooooooooo!

Im feeling like i've dodged a bullit now after reading this,will wait now until the new year,probably save myself a few bucks at the same time,gutted for you tlogic and anybody else left with a dud,at least you got a full refund and are not out of pocket ..Merry Crimbo All
 
Don't wanna sound like a fanboy or the devil's advocate but it's a minor issue and hopefully it would be fixed in their next series(I'm a a Sony faithful).

That's why I usually wait a little while before I get a new hardware, see some feedback before I take the plunge.
 
try giving sony a call mate, might get a replacement before xmass

Your first post got deleted because you haven't read the thread and were probably post clocking to get to downloads.

He's already had a refund.
