I enjoy it but I just can't see paying prices at stores for some of these other games that are out(especially when for other systems I can get like 5-10 games for the price of one game for ps4 o_O at least the games that I want for ps4 sine I have no desire for gta or sleeping dogs)

Just got a PS4 (early Christmas gift from my girlfriend) with the following :

- Destiny
- Wolfenstein : The New Order
- Ea Sport UFC
- Injustice : Gods Among Us - Ultimate Edition

We bought it from one of my good friends so it's all in great shape, like new.

The thing is, my friend had a Playstation + subscription that he purchased about 2 months ago, so there's still about 10 months remaining. Since I already had a PSN account from my PS3, I wanted to keep my account so I re-initiated the system, erasing my friend's profile and files (he had bought Trials Fusion so sadly I won't be able to play it) and started from scratch.

So here's my first question : Can I, by any mean, transfer a Playstation + subscription from an account to another ?

Also, do I need a Playstation + subscription to play Destiny ?

And finally, I need some suggestions for cool cheap games on the system.

Thanks

For some of the content, not all of it.

Not for your friend, who still "owns" those games as long as (or whenever) they have an active subscription. If they get a PS4 again in 5 years, those games are still waiting for them.

Yeah there's that. But he sold me his PS4 to buy an Xbox One, I'm pretty sure he's not going to come back to Sony, he's been an Xbox guy since day one. So it's likely to be all lost.

What are the coming big games that are supposed to be system sellers for PS4? By this time in the life of the 360 we got Gears of War and people were anticipating MGS4 for PS3.

Destiny doesn't cut it

Especially since Destiny is multiplatform.

Anyways, I'd say the next big exclusive release is The Order: 1886 from Ready at Dawn Studios.

There's plenty of big games out and more on the horizon. Whether they're "system sellers" for people, comes down to the buyer's personal preference. I wouldn't own a PS4 if there wasn't games I want to play on it.

We'll, I finally picked up a PS4 last week but I may have to take it back or exchange it. I'm getting the crazy intermittent input issue described in this thread on the official PS forums: http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/ ... p/42225733

Anyone else having this problem? If I can't figure this out soon I may box it up for a refund and try to buy another one when the holiday season smoke clears.
