Trouble in PlayStation 4 paradise
No matter what the circumstances, people will always find cause to complain. Gamers are no different--we'll often get annoyed at even the slightest inconvenience, livid that we've been encumbered on the path to fantasy fulfillment. Many of you received your brand spankin' new PlayStation 4 last week, eagerly setting it up with lightning quickness to embark into the next generation of gaming. And within your first hour of play, you started noticing a few little annoyances. Things you couldn't seem to get over.
No product is perfect, and that certainly applies to the PS4. And no matter how much you might be enjoying your new console, there's no denying that it has its faults. These are our slight pet peeves with the PS4--things that aren't at all deal breakers, but we groan at them all the same. See if you share our sentiment about stuff like...
Not being able to change the background
Needing to constantly "adjust screen size"
The glow of the controller constantly reflecting off your TV
The home screen music is depressing
The fact that controllers don't come with charging cables
Accidentally hitting the touchpad as a button when trying to hit Options
Being a fighting game fan and weeping while all your Xbox One friends talk about Killer Instinct
Being a hardcore racing fan and weeping while all your Xbox One friends talk about Forza Motorsport 5
Mourning the loss of our beloved Start and Select buttons
Buying a PlayStation Camera, then realizing you probably won't be using it for months
Trying to jump into a friend's game to help them out of a tough spot, then remembering that the feature Sony told you about isn't here yet
Playing Knack, then realizing you've made a huge mistake
Laughing at the audacity of Sony charging $18 for a PS4 Vertical Stand
Playing Flower on PS4, then desperately wishing you had a next-gen port of Journey
Realizing that you might run out of hard drive space way sooner than you might think
Getting a Trophy, then realizing you're not at all special because everyone has it too
Wanting to Share something that happened 16 minutes ago
Feeling pressured into making a Facebook account because your PS4 ordains it
Using the included headset in any capacity
Having a USB device that is too large for the front ports
Forgetting which touch button turns the system on and off
Looking at Watch Dogs on the back of the PS4 box and feeling a hole in your open-world-loving heart
Using remote-play with any game that requires frequent use of L2/R2/L3/R3
Trivial objections
Do you share our pain? Or are we just a bunch of whiners? If you're the proud owner of a PS4 who has a few qualms with the system, tell us all about it in the comments below. It's like they say--misery loves company, and we'll totally add your suggestions to the article. They don't really say that second thing all that often.
