I generally use blu rays to back up the important stuff. The rest can be redownloaded or replaced. Though I'd rather not do any of that. Just re ripping all the dvd's takes a month.
I got nearly 500 steam games. And i am one of those who rips their own dvd's and blu rays, so I can watch em on a tablet and use my playstations as a video jukeboxes.
That takes a lot of space as well.
I kinda miss the days when all I needed for a back up was a few cd-r's. Instead of a raid array and a blu ray writer.
Neither actually. I am short on space on my pc and I have 1,44 TB on my ps4 doing nothing. I only have 300 gig in games on the ps4, so I decided to downgrade for the time being.
When the time comes and 1tb isn't sufficient anymore, I can use an external.
I actually do need it I plan to remove the 2 tb hd from my glacier ps4 and put it's 500 gig hd back. I got a terminal case of lackaspace on my pc. And with this new firmware update, I don't have to play the hd shuffle anymore.
@johncalmc But Nintendo hasn't been firing on all cylinders since the DS. They are content to let a lot of their franchises rot. ( Or farm them out to other developers, with less then stellar results. ) While whoring out the same 3 franchises ( Mario, Zelda and Pokemon) whose formula's really are starting to wear thin.
Zelda really hasn't made any big strides since Ocarina Of Time, a title which is almost 20 years old now. ( ..damn 20 ? ) And pretty much all the Zelda's in it's wake are OOT reskins, the new one not withstanding. But that' s not out yet. So it might be just another reskin, it might be open world but empty, or it might indeed be all that.
And Pokemon ? Each game is the same, it's Nintendo's COD. Sells like hot cakes just like COD as well.
Considering what they did to the phone ports and then ported that.... thing to Steam, i'd rather they don't touch FF6 at all. And just release the Snes game in an emulation wrapper, that will do fine.
Rotten ? I'm actually one of those weirdo's that likes Resident Evil 6, mostly because of the callbacks to older better, Resi Evils, ie anything before 4, in Leon's scenario. but still.
Let's see how well it does compared to Resi Evil 5 and 6. Which are Capcom' s best selling titles ever with 7,1 and 6,6 million units sold respectively. While Street Fighter II sold 6,3 million units.

Re: Poll: Has PS4 Pro's Boost Mode Tempted You to Upgrade?
No, not at all.
I bought the standard glacier ps4 only fairly recently
and I have zero interest in the pro.
Maybe, like AFCC when it's a lot cheaper,
but right now ? Nah.
Re: Download Your Free February PlayStation Plus Games Now
@AFCC
I don't even know the amount of games I never even played and some of them are well over a decade old by now.
I have well over a 1000 games.
Nearly 500 on Steam.
Well over 130 on the ps3.
Don't think ill ever play all of these buggers, it's kinda crazy really.
Re: This Is Why Devs Don't Bother Finishing Games
Sad state of affairs, as far as I am concerned.
People just gobble half finished games up and that will be the new status quo.
Re: Ni no Kuni II Is 45% Complete, Says Dev
@RenanKJ
Maybe, but there is a first time for everything.
the publisher could force them to release the game early.
Wouldn't put it past Bandai.
After all, money talks, artistic integrity walks.
Re: Download Your Free February PlayStation Plus Games Now
@AFCC
You mean people actually play games, instead of just collecting them ?!
Re: Ni no Kuni II Is 45% Complete, Says Dev
Sounds like business as usual.
Push out an unfinished game and then release the rest as patches and DLC.
Re: Cool! The Glacier White PS4 Slim Is Out in USA Now
Stil think the original glacier PS4 looks better.
But the slim glacier PS4 at least doesn't look like a biscuit barrel anymore.
Re: PS4 Save Editor Will Let You Cheat Your Way to Victory This March
@FullbringIchigo
Some of us don't have the time or inclination to grind 100 hours away in a jrpg.
Especially not with the insane backlogs everybody has these days.
And this thing will be blocked in a upcoming patch anyway.

Re: Poll: What PS4 Firmware 4.50 Feature are You Most Looking Forward To?
@GBMatthew

No, thanks.
Re: Poll: What PS4 Firmware 4.50 Feature are You Most Looking Forward To?
@Rudy_Manchego
What makes you think its the future ?
4K tv really is just another marketing gimmick, so we have to rebuy everything we already bought again.
For most people 1080 is enough, including me.
Re: Poll: What PS4 Firmware 4.50 Feature are You Most Looking Forward To?
External hd support.
The rest is certainly welcome, but that one is the headliner for me.

Re: Atlus Survey Asks if You Want Persona HD Remasters
Only if they do all of them .
Re: Poll: Has Your PS4 Started to Run a Little Slower Lately?
@RedMageLanakyn
Nah, I plan to take my 2 tb hd out and replace it for a 1 tb.
Re: Poll: Has Your PS4 Started to Run a Little Slower Lately?
@RedMageLanakyn
Not Polygon ?
..No wait, Polygon are the ones that couldnt even get a VCR to work.
Re: NieR: Automata Dev Reveals Game went Gold a While Ago

Re: Next PS4 Firmware Update Finally Brings External Hard Drive Support

Baby steps
At least the external HD support is finally there.
Re: Next PS4 Firmware Update Finally Brings External Hard Drive Support
About damn time.
I might have 2 TB in my ps4, but at least the option is finally there.

Re: Square Enix Has Thought About a Final Fantasy VI Remake
Considering what they did to the phone ports and then ported that.... thing to Steam, i'd rather they don't touch FF6 at all.
And just release the Snes game in an emulation wrapper,
that will do fine.
Re: Dollhouse Brings Dark Noir Horror to the PS4
This looks more interesting then that Zero Dawn thing by miles.
Re: Here's Your Latest Look at Final Fantasy VII Remake on PS4
Oh goodie, a picture.
And nothing more then that.
I care more about more concrete information.
Release date, price tag,
how the damn thing plays.
Re: The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind Announced, By Far Biggest Expansion Yet

Never liked Morrowind anyway.
I prefer Oblivion.

It looks better then the ASM movie costume at least, but that' s about it.
Re: Spider-Man PS4 Will Be Set in a Separate Universe to The Avengers
@Nickolaidas
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they were DLC at 2 bucks a pop.
Re: Spider-Man PS4 Will Be Set in a Separate Universe to The Avengers
I'm fine with that.
That costume is bloody awfull though.
What' s wrong with the original or the black suit ?
Probably tied up in the movies or something.
Re: Sony's Banking on Horizon: Zero Dawn Cosplay Becoming a Thing
