Guys, I have a problem with my ds4 controller. When I use it its right side gets hot, while the left side stays normal. I first thought it's a battery so I changed it but that didn't help. Also, when I switch off the console its light continues pulsing, like it's searching for a console or charging a battery, I don't know. After some time it shuts off. Is there help for this? I can use everything without any problems except this overheating thing. Any ideas?
@NecuVise You changed the battery in a ds4? Not sure if you should be doing that. If it is still under warranty you could have sent it off to Sony but the warrnty is invalid now that you have opened it up.

So my amazon preorder of Soul Calibur 6 just got updated with a delivery date of January 8th 2019 which happens to be a Tuesday. Can always count on Amazon to leak a date hope it's true. We shall see soon!
@RogerRoger yeah, hehe but the biggest problem is that scarcity of games for more than two players. Heck, we don't even have that many games for two players.
@RogerRoger I think two there are two reasons for that: first is the weak cpu in current consoles which cannot handle calculations for two players and second is much improved online infrastructure on all sides. Many games have online coop which points to the weak cpu problem. Let's hope next gen consoles improve this a lot.

So after intending to do a database rebuild for a while - as my PS4 has been a sluggish beast for longer than I care to admit - and the database hasn't had a rebuild since the last big crash - which I can't even quite remember - I ran the database rebuild. And it's oh so smooth again, shocking how laggy the front end was for such a long time.
A bonus effect seems to be that the voice control is quite a bit smoother and responsive too.
@NecuVise Late to the party here, but have you tried the reset button on your DS4?

So, here's the situation. My friend shared me his account, I set it to primary on my ps4, downloaded some games and then he had to put it as a primary on his ps4 again, due to some unforseen circumstances. What's curios is that now I can play his games, but obviously can't use his ps plus. If I understood this account sharing correctly, I shouldn't be able play his games?
We would like to reverse the situation if it's possible, so he can play his games on his and other accounts on his ps4 but without setting it as a primary console.
Is this possible? And how is it that I can play his games without my ps4 being primary for his account?
@NecuVise From what I know share play is a sketchy subject. I know using it to get "free"ames is against Sony TOSE and can get your PSN account banned and therefore can't go into details here much about it. Your best bet is maybe try googling it.

@NecuVise I have a profile on my dad's ps4 and his is primary account. I've setup so that i enter a pin code everytime i switch to my profile. Any game that I've purchased my dad can't play on his profile, he would need to purchase it separately or borrow the disc.
I've never done the sharing thing on digital games, but i belive the correct way to go about is setup each user as family memeber on the ps4.
