OLD PS3 DEAD.. mobo issues. Maxcom selling new ps4 for 22K with 1tb HDD and 10 games loaded (jailbreaked) is this a good deal ?

As title says, my old ps3 motion controllers can work on new furbished ps4.
Just the 2 wireless controllers wont work.. which is included in above pricing.

Is this a good deal ? Considering purchase in april after kids exams are done..
 
That is a good deal. Better ones may be available on forums. Please check and buy. I dont know if I cna link to other forums, so will send you links to other forum in PM.
I got a mint condition non jailbroken PS4 for a lot less than 22k.
Also, are your PS3 sixaxis/ dualshock 3 controllers for sale? I could use one for my ps3.

I think the price quoted is slightly on the higher side. You can get jailbroken PS4 for around 18k. And the games can be downloaded from ***** **** easily. Besides jailbreaking the PS4 is as simple as plugging a USB drive.

For around 22k you might be able to get a PS4 Pro. You should look around in the forum and also on another site IVG.

Ps - I would also like to buy one sisaxis controller if you want to sell the controllers.

PPS - PM me if you want to get a used PS4. I might be able to source one for you around 18k :) My office is pretty close to Palika Market.

The main difference between PS4 and PS4 PRO are its target resolution. Ps4 was made for gaming at full HD (1080p) while PS4 pro was made for gaming at Ultra HD (4K).

So if you are going to game at full HD resolution then a PS4 should suffice.

PS4 controller (even the first gen) are way more comfortable than the PS3 sisaxis controllers. But the battery backup is WORSE than ps3 controllers.

Thanks @joy.das.jd
I have a 4K 65 inch TV, will definitely go for a ps4 pro only.
The seller in first topic is giving first gen ps4 controller alongwith the console (one quantity).
My original ps3 wireless controller has good battery backup, tried playing upto 5 days (around 25+ hours sometimes in total)

For 4k TV , ps4 pro is obviously better option.

Agreed; PS3 controller gives 24+ hours backup but PS4 controller gives only about 12-15 hours backup.

Hello, I will decide for purchase by April 20th and buy before month end.

I happened to check many comparison videos of ps4 vs ps4 pro. but cannot find much difference in graphics quality ?

Will go for a jailbreak PS4 or PS4 PRO (need to decide between this 2)
1 TB SSD (instead of normal drives) loaded with 10+ games
2 new game controllers
Ps3 motion control is re usable, so wont buy this, might buy 1 more move controller.

Got 2 Ps3 remote controllers (will sell this to them}

As you told earlier that you are going to use on a 4K TV then its better to get a PS4 pro.

PS4 PRO actually does NOT use native 4K. In simple terms you can think that the PS4 render the game on a lesser resolution and then upscales it to 4K. And the difference in quality IS VISIBLE at 4K resolution.

Whatever device you get [normal ps4 or ps4 pro] make sure to get one below firmware 9.0. Any higher firmware and you CANNOT jailbreak your console. Also this means that you CANNOT play online or latest games at the moment. [For eg. Forbidden west & Elden Ring ]

SSD is mostly irrelevant in PS4 as the games are made with the hard drive in mind. Of course some games will load little faster. But there is no significant improvement whatsoever. Better option would be get a 2TB hard drive so that you can get more games on it. Games are easily available on internet to download.

Check PM for further details.

If you are suggesting PS4 pro (shall check pricing difference between 2 and update here after 15th) as the videos I have seen on youtube between ps4 and ps4 hardly shows much difference, its like 98% quality on ps4 and 100% on ps4 pro.
was watching those comparison videos on 4k tv, video format was as well 4K

What firmware would you suggest to install, so i dont have to look further in future ?
Did you meant a jail broken PS4 cannot play games from original bought games in DVD format ?

This is a great idea for 2TB HDD will check price difference between ssd and normal HDD and do needful.

Thanks a lot for your guidance @joy.das.jd

not really, you can get cosmetically- 8/10 and functionally-10/10 jailbreakable ps4 pro for like 3-4k more
 
Does latest firmware means I can play more games or any specific reasons ?
Only thing disliked about jailbreak is I cannot save/backup my saved game data online or any other way.

Yes absolutely true. Higher firmware means that you can just install the jailbroken games and play directly. For lower firmware you have to install additional patch file that enables you to play games without any additional patches.

For example say "Game A" needs 6.72 firmware to run. In this case, for PS4 running on jailbroken 9.0, simply install the PKG file (this is equivalent to iso file in windows system) and you can play. But to run the same game on PS4 running 5.05, you have to install the PKG file and another patch PKG file.

You CANNOT make online backups but you CAN make backups on external pen drive / hard drive from time to time. Just plug in you device and copy the saves/ trophy/ and other stuffs on them.
