The PlayStation 4 Essentials List (if you're on a budget)

Written by Kyo on

If you're planning to maximise your experience with the PS4 (while on a budget), here's a little nifty guide that I can think off that would get you started:   1. Plasma / LED TV Plasma is no doubt going to give you richer blacks and it's going to quite affordable as well. To maximise it, ensure it's at least 40 inches and the distance between you and the TV is 6 to 7 feet. If you're getting a bigger screen, increase the distance.

Written by Kyo on

Lets face it, not many of us are interested in keeping / collecting some games.
