PS4 units plagued "Blue light of Death". Possibly a cause of sabotage?

jones_supa writes"A classic game console freezing problem seems to affect the newest generation too. It has been found out that a bunch of Sony PlayStation 4s suffer of a problem which has been christened 'Blue Light of Death'. When a PS4 is turned on with a press of the power button, the light that runs along the side of the console should first pulse blue and then switch to white. At this point the console turns on the picture signal to the display device. Those who have a unit with the glitch are instead finding that their PS4 pulses blue, never goes to white and never outputs an image. We do not have accurate statistics of how widespread the issue is, but reports are popping up in Amazon reviews, Twitter, YouTube and other websites. PlayStation support is still in midst of investigating the issue, but has already posted a bunch of magic tricks you can try to get the console past the initial startup stage."

 

I think it's possible that this is directly related to this post.

 

I mean, if people are intentionally sabotaging PS4's at the factory, how can we tell how badly Sony screwed up this generation? Ugh. Way to throw off the numbers guys.

But seriously, this was coming. We all knew something would screw up, because something always does. But now, I think, it's hard to tell who's fault it is. Which is annoying. 

Oh well. For the PS4 owners that frequent this forum, how have your systems been doing? Any issues?

Yes, erm. I live with my family. Both my Sister and dad like playing on consoles, so we bought a PS4. My dad is an Engineer so he only uses his PC for work. He likes the idea of just pop the disk in and play (or click the title in the GUI if its downloaded from the PlayStation store).

 

As for me I play on both PC and PS4/PS3. Half of my friends play on console, and to be honest I usually play the exclusives (Killzone), Which actually looks quite impressive on the PS4 if I do say so myself( equivalent to ~high settings at 1080p, 45-55 fps if I had to eyeball it.)

Good... Good...

Let all these shitty consoles die out with their 'Red Ring of lulz' 'Blue Light of awakening' as soon as possible.

*read in a national geographical voice*

Remember the second a "fanboy" feels under threat he will let out many taunts, some of which don't make sense, this is a defence policy which goes back many thousands of years when cavemen would argue whether the X-stick one or the Stick station 4 was better and the dual wielders(pc fanboys) tend to get a little over board sometimes.

What the hell dude, relax.. No one here is being homophobic or is offending homosexuals.. 

Anyway, the word "gay" did not originally refer to homosexuals.. So dont complain that society has given it a new meaning unless you are willing to complain that homosexuals changed the meaning in the 60s when they started using it to describe themselves..

 

That will be all..
