hey guys, I'm kinda new on Pakgamers. I just saw this thread and loved it. I just bought a ps4 but havn't had guts to plug it in. I bought my ps4 from the US and now im here in Karachi. I just wanted to confirm from all those who bought it from the US that do we need a voltage converter for it because they use 110 Volts and we have 220 Volts. Also which internet connection are the Karachi ps4 owners using to play online?. thanks a lot.

Yo, PS4 is region free so no worries about the region lock thing.
Plus 80-90% of the Pakistanis have bought region1 and working pefectly.
Go for it :)

Is this Piece of INFORMATION Correct ? ? ? Please EXPLAIN the Colored Highlighted PART - Thanks Bro

=> PC, you get free dedicated servers, changeable graphical options (to allow for the previously explained tweaking for best performance), free bonus content if the developer offers it and if the game is good and comes with a decent SDK, you get mod community content.

=> Console multiplayer now is like PC multiplayer from 10+ years ago (peer-to-peer i.e. modem-to-modem)... even back then PC still had mod communities.

All region games works on PS4, so console region doesn't matter now. However what PSN account you got? USA? UK? if you have a us account then get the reg 1 game so you can download DLC etc. In other words it's your PSN account and the game which require region matching, not the console itself.

u can also make seperate accounts like UK us, and japan etc for different region games... u dont necessarily need to play the games through those accounts just if u need a dlc for that region game, u can download it off that account of its and it will still be playable from ur main account whichever it is us,uk or japan etc.....

[MENTION=7787]sweetstyle[/MENTION]: well sorry for UR LOSS but i had the similiar thing with my launch 60gigs, it died in 2010 but i filled that gap a few days later with A NEW slim :)

anyways i haven't done any hacking scene to my ps3 so can't say much about that into detail but a hacked ps3 should cost about below 20k around 18'ish etc a good one right about now something, u can try the pg marketplace for correct quote as ppl are selling theirs i have seen numerours times...


playing online is always a risk but there have been new custom firmwares which allow u to do that but again risk....

ps4 ka nahi kahoon gaa coz i myself haven't got a ps4 yet :p

[h=1]You Can Now Use the Dual Shock 4 Controller Wirelessly With PlayStation 3[/h]


Not all features are fully functional but it's enough to get you gaming.



It's no secret that the Dual Shock 4 controller can be used on the PlayStation 3. The caveat however is that you'd need to keep the controller wired via USB to the console, something that is a bit of an inconvenience ever since we entered the age of wireless controllers.


Thanks to the latest PlayStation 3 firmware update released just last week, the Dual Shock 4 controller can work with the PS3 without being tethered by a cable.


1. Connect Dual Shock 4 controller via USB cable and turn on the PlayStation 3
2. Go to Settings -> Accessory Settings -> Manage Bluetooth Devices
3. Register new device and start scanning
4. Unplug Dual Shock 4 controller and hold PS & Share buttons.
5. Once the lightbar flashes on the Dual Shock 4, plug the controller via cable and select Wireless Controller
6. Complete registration and unplug the controller for wireless gameplay



This method will allow you to use the DS4 controller wirelessly but the PS3 still won't recognize it as an official Sony controller. What that means is that some functionality still won't work like the PS button, Sixaxis motion controls, or vibration.


Still, there's probably a good reason one might want to switch over to the DS4 controller even without these features, considering that Bungie helped design the DS4 controller in the first place. Personally I don't really mind using the Dual Shock 3 controller, but people have their preferences and this is just one more option for the players.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
