The extended user manual for all things PlayStation 4

Some of us have been PlayStation fans from day one, but this most recent generation of Sony's infamous game console has really turned heads. The PlayStation 4 is not only a capable competitor in the market, the list of incredible games available for it is unrivaled. But there's a whole lot more you can do with this console if you know where to look, and like all gadgets sometimes things go wrong and you need to troubleshoot a problem. So whether you've just bought your first PlayStation 4, or you just need a little help getting started, we're here for you. In this article, we are going to document all of the resources you will need to ensure that your PlayStation experience is the best it possibly can be.

What to do once you've finally set up your PlayStation 4

If you haven't bought a PlayStation yet, we've also got the tools to help you out. Choosing your PlayStation might be difficult and if you ever plan on using a PlayStation VR you definitely want a PlayStation Pro. Aside from performance, you want to save money, and we want to help you do it. Buying products in bundles, especially if you already need the whole kit, can save you boatloads of money.

All about your current console update: 6.02

PlayStation's latest firmware update, 6.02, doesn't add much in terms of new features. This update was mainly meant for minor performance improvements. The update that people expected to bring a ton of changes, 6.0, turned out to be a disappointment that caused more problems than it solved, and didn't offer any more features than the 5.50 update did. Let's hope 6.0 was only laying the unseen groundwork for better things to come.

Unfortunately, you'll need to wait a bit longer for the much-requested ability to change your PSN name.

Get to know the best hardware

Just like buying a new car there is always the option to get your possessions in a "fully loaded" style. Well, from the controllers to the headsets we've got all the information you'll need to deck out your gear for the PlayStation. These accessories and upgrades aren't just to improve the visual of your command center, but you can also improve the performance.

Last but not least, let's take a moment to appreciate all the save files to our favorite games. The ones that, even if you don't play for a few years, you never want to lose. PlayStation used to have an interchangeable memory card, but now it's all on their internal hard drive. So if you're running out of memory but don't want to lose anything, you can also check out this list for the best external hard drives.

The best fun to have on your PlayStation 4

While there are plenty of super cool apps to lose yourself in, one of the main reasons for owning a PS4 is for the games. As you know, exploring the PlayStation Store from your console, or even online, can take hours — and the only thing you're going to do is wish your wallet was fatter.
