Hey guys, so it's been about a week now and whenever I power off my console it gives a black frozen screen and the indicating light (white) keeps on blinking and the console never turns off. I have to manually power it off.
Can anyone help me out? I just contacted the PS4 Twitter support and they asked me to open it on SAFE MODE.
Please Help!![emoji21]

Did you tried to wait for a longer time it sometimes happens with me when I try to switch off the ps4 while the applications are still running.Try to close all applications and then turn off if it doesn't work go into safe mode

Uh-huh, alright let me see if it gets resolved.
Also I bought my console from Saudi Arabia not Pakistan and happens to be under warranty.

Yeah I did, almost half an hour.
And the Safe Mode solution failed.
I again reached out to PS4 support regarding the matter. Let's see what else they suggest, in the meanwhile I'll just have to power it off manually ;-;

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
