I can't believe their doing this to force everyone to get the ps5, it's a cold world when game companies start doing stuff like this

So will Sony give us a free console for bricking ours?

I went to each specific game to try and upload it to the cloud but they even blocked that cause every time you try and click on it back up to the cloud it says you have to update first

I installed the update yesterday worked fine, Now went on it today and have updated it 5 times via internet and multiple times from flash drive and keeps looping back to restarting and saying I need to update.

[mugenkai]

I keep having to reinstall multiple times... It keeps lagging my system out... And then I have to reinstall again...

My PS4 is unusable and it will never work again, I do have my saves backed up but I started having this problem with update 8.03 since February and lost a lot of my data at that point. If you own a PS4 right now you're pretty much screwed cause they want you to buy a PS5.

I have used all the options in the safe mode. I have downloaded the update on a usb stick, download took 2 hours in the safe mode and then it restarted, but then the ps4 resets, but all I get is a black screen. I have reinstalled the software during the night, but then it gave me an error saying 'cannot acces storage'. And that freaking update took more than 15hours and it didnt do anything. What do I need to do because this is just so annoying. I have done everything; I have tried all the steps in the Safe mode and nothing worked.
