so, shoud i buy one?

There *is* a large number of 'good' games which are available on the PS4 but a lot of them are also available on the PC so if you have a capable PC then that might be a better option just now

Yeah, that doesn't sound right at all. Mine hasn't crashed once either since I got in in November except for when I was playing Battlefield 4 but in that case I'm pretty sure it was the fault of the game since so many other people were reporting the same thing. Think you have a broken one.

Yeah, mine constantly bitches at me about being unable to upload save games to the cloud.

Apparently you need to delete the conflicting saves from the cloud and that should fix it.

Mine doesn't do that either.

And the size of your PC box is commensurate with the size of your penis length.

Also: pretty much every other platform under the sun. The number of good games that are genuinely only available on the PS4/PC is still very small surely?

As for crashes - I've had dashboard crashes for COD Ghosts / BF4 in the past (none recently) - but nothing else - and those were 'back to dashboard' i've never had a crash that required me to power cycle the machine itself (I've had a number of those in the past on the 360)

Resogun (PS4 only)
Transistor (PS4 / PC)
Dont Starve (PS4 / PC)
Infamous (PS4)
Towerfall (PS4 / PC)
Final Fantasy XIV (PS4 / PC and PS3)
Steamworld Dig (PS4 / PC and Vita)
Outlast (PS4 / PC)
Stick it to the man (PS4 / PC)

Stick it to the Man came out on the PS3 first, and Final Fantasy XIV is besides the point if it's also out on the PS3, but yeah; that's a slightly bigger list than I expected. Nothing there worth buying a whole new console for mind.

The PS4 version won't cripple my hands though.

I have also not had any crashing problems or error messages or anything on my PS4. Might possibly be worth keeping an eye on and maybe look at getting the machine swapped over.

Trufax: On my launch day original Xbox, sometimes 10 or so random pixels would appear odd colours in all games when playing it with an RGB SCART cable (as if playing on an LCD screen with some stuck pixels). It wasn't a show stopping problem by any means and I just put it down to being a quirk of the machine. I actually just assumed it's what Xboxes did when hooked up via RGB SCART. Then a friend came over one day, immediately pointed it out to me and assured me his console did nothing of the sort. I took it back to the shop, they agreed they'd never seen the problem before and swapped it over for me. And, lo and behold, the replacement machine was perfect and never did that weird pixel thing once. I'd put up with that bizarre fault for more than six months.

And whatever they call the new Unchartered game

Laker Airways?

I think that was the dullest joke I've ever made.

I wouldn't go that far.

I would say not yet, there is not that many games out for it yet.
Unless Destiny floats your boat I would wait till 2015.

Should've paid another pound or so and picked up LIMBO.

Here's a game though:

Valiant Hearts: The Great War.

No idea what it's about or whether it's any good but goddamn I love the art already. AND you appear to have a buddy in the form of a cute doggie. I love doggies.

I would say not yet, there is not that many games out for it yet.
Unless Destiny floats your boat I would wait till 2015.

And Destiny should float your boat, because it's pretty damn good.
