Hey there, guys. It's been some time since i was visiting these forums. But here i am again looking for info on new technology.

This is about the Sony Playstation 4, of course. I ran some search terms on the forums but found nothing either because PS4 is just too short and no one writes playstation4 - i wrote both so searches can lead here, eventually.

Anyway, I've saw a few info on the glitches the PS4 had at launch date. I want to make sure about its bad behaviors because my plan is to buy one this month. No rush, i've waited nearly what, six months? Just don't want to get a slim version anymore.

Also, i was surprised that the very tutorials and faqs area for the PS4 didn't have any topic with some gathered documentation on what kind of issues it can have to help people identify the, quickly.

In the beginning, there were some hardware issues with the PS4 involving the HDMI port. This has since been fixed, and at this point there are little to no major bugs or issues with the PS4 that I've heard of.

That said, there are of course various small software bugs and such just as there are with any console, but nothing that will kill your system. I've had my PS4 since launch, and the only issues I've had involved games that would crash every now and again, which hasn't happened for a while now...

Well, i guess no news here is good news then? Hoping that i still can buy it for the price i heard two months ago, if not cheaper... And maybe wait a LOT for the games. Still not sure what to get first on it. Was really just concerned about getting one and running into one of the console-killing bugs from launch.

    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and nvidia is already doing ARM
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think they want to take more focus away from their gpus
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    AI assisted game creation might become a thing
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    At least that's something I think would be pretty cool.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Don some VR glasses and gloves and talk to the computer and paint entire worlds
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    "OK Cortana I want that mountain a little taller and more snow on top, and I would like some random ancient pine forest around the bottom"
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    "Now we need a spring fed river flowing down the north side and add some wild life appropriate for the biome"
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Many TBs of assets and the programming of something like that is going to be tough but I think it's something we might see in 20 years maybe sooner
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and using LLMs to generate NPC dialogue and even dynamically generated quests is something i'm sure is already happening

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    will just take some time for games made using those things to be completed and released

    @K3Nv2 you said instructions with pictures, same difference
