They do offer some discounts worth getting if you're stuck on consoles, but sites like G2A and the many steam sales put it to shame..

So...I bought Project Cars for my 8 year old son....not realising that it is highly technical and single player.

We have used it a few times but he gets bored quickly with it since its him alone.

Would would any one here like to exchange a slightly used Project Cars 1 PS4 game for any other driving game-must be 2 player capable for a PS4 platform?

Ive pre ordered he GT Sport game so I want to get him up to speed with the game BEFORE he gets that.

Thanks

Gamescom starting soon at 3PM today here is the link

https://www.polygon.com/2017/8/20/16168 ... ct-scorpio

Only thing I hoping for is Injustice 2 for PC. I seriously can't afford to go pay customs $1100 duty and vat just to clear a PS4

I expect microsoft panel to be good since they gonna announce a lot of stuff for Xbox Scorpio. The only good thing I will say is that the online playerbase is way bigger on PS4 for fighting games. PC is pretty small but ok, xbox one I heard is the smallest playerbase of all 3 in fighting games.

One thing is certain the Scorpio is pure beauty its amazing how they managed to pack this much power in such a small form factor, there is noway you could ever build a pc this tiny and good looking with this much power at the same time. The problem I see with xbox is the games are sheit no good exclusives and I have gears 4 for PC and it was a disappointment it has lived past its time its too clunky now and the 3 permanent weapons in versus suck you can't pick class unless its horde mode. Microsoft needs to address that cause it really doesn't make sense owning a xbox over a PS4 right now.

Well that was a fail, they built the most powerful console ever and every game they announce for it was sheit. Except playerunknown battlegrounds but that already available for PC as it stands.

Look like PS4 has all the good exclusives. I am surprised Microsoft has fallen this badly in the console world. They used to dominate with the 360 back in the days now nobody cares about them.

PC is also my platform of choice, but true 4k at this price with such nice hardware is basically unattainable in PC even with used parts, if only the game library could keep up I may consider one....

Yeah they have Gears of War 4 running at 4K with around 40 fps or so.

That is incredible given its price point. Not to mention its running 12GB GDDR5 Ram. lol thing is a frecking beast yes if only they could solve that game library issue. Sony just dominates with exclusives

Did you try checking on youtube for a video on your problem?

Also is it a Fat PS4 or the Slim?

Well according to this guy its a simple case with the power brick loose so it might be the case with you. He get a lot of thumbs up so look like it fixed the issue with a lot of people also so bess you try this if not well then take it to zero media.

Because it could also be the case of the solder got cracked.

Okay so my ps4 was doing the same problem. It wouldnt even turn on at times. At first i believed it was over heating because it was dusty , but i saw this comment on the ps forums of some guy that held the ps4 at a 90 degree angle with the front facing down and you give it a smack on the back . A good 3 or 4 smacks . And it fixed . The power brick inside must be moved because as soon as i did it , it turned on afterwards and worked just fine. I know it sounds crazy and believe me its not a troll it genuinely works.

Hey guys so I am considering buying this by Christmas along with the Thrustmaster gearbox the aluminum one.

https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-T30 ... tmaster+tx

but anyone here has experience with this or the logitech G920? I read that the Thrustmaster uses some sort of belt driven system for force feedback which makes it feel like a real car, as if you are holding a real power steering??. Where as the logitech uses a gear mechanism which makes it feel more like a toy? let me know what you guys think and what experience do you all have.

i am also considering getting the oculus rift headset aswell along with Forza 7 for PC I have a GTX 1060 SSC so I assume it can power the VR without any issues

BTW can I have an equally good simulator / racing experience on Forza7 with a Rift VR on PC instead of having to spend extra money on a PS4 for Gran Turismo?

Don't bother with Gran Turismo, that franchise died on the ps2. Besides it doesn't look that impressive and if you wanna try the psvr version of Gran Turismo it's gonna look even more terrible because of the hardware limitations.

If you have the system to run Forza on a PC then choose that option, and since you're on the PC your device can be updated unlike the PS3 steering wheels which cannot and don't work with PS4 since they want you to buy a new wheel every time a game comes out.

^ I have the Thrustmaster T500RS and the TH8A since the beginning of 2015. It works great with Gran Turismo, WRC and Project Cars.

The wheel and shifter feels a lot better than the Logitech G27 IMO. I have not compared it to the G29 as yet but I think the 27 and 29 are similar.

Thrustmaster launched the T-GT and is due in December


The Thrustmaster T500 and T-GT allows you to use a boss kit to use different wheels on the Tx base, Momo, Sparco etc

^ Duane have you had any issues with your TM? when I read about this brand online I usually find people complain about defective units.
I would hate to have to return anything from Trinidad, imagine the shipping cost.

From what I read the G27 and G29 are identical only difference is where the buttons are placed. That and it was a smart way to force people to buy a new kit just to play on PS4

I was going to buy the T300 TM its like $360 on amazon and the TH8A is like an additional $150, not bad price is good if you ask me considering the quality you get.

But would you recommend holding out for the T-GT by December? any idea what the price would be like?

The T-GT is US$800+

and no issues so far with the T500RS and TH8A, 2 years in, knock on wood.
it will take up both USB ports on your PS4 though.

I'd love to get a Fanatec setup one day but the price and it's no longer licensed to GT and PlayStation

^ ooh ok thanks $800 is over my budget so looks like I am getting the T300 and the TH8A setup instead. I am using it for PC since Microsoft has decided to bring Forza 7 for PC and should look great on my GTX 1060

I was watching this looks like some sort of kick starter but no idea what the cost of stuff like these are, looks like it shakes and turns your chair just like a real car.

the T300, T500 and T-GT are for PS4 and more so for Gran Turismo

There are Forza specific wheels from Thrustmaster too

My set up. T300rs. It's pretty good with gt6. I had an old gt27 bought used. The t300 is much better I'd say
