It is with a sad & broken heart, that I must convey this news to you

Back when I was but a wee lad, I was introduced to the wonderful world of gaming. Intellivision, Colleco, Atari, Nintendo, Jaguar, Dreamcast, Super Nintendo, N64, Playstation, XBOX, PS2, PS3, and finally, the PS4, with the introduction of the Density edition of the PS4 for the Taken King (yeah, we know who got taken there, am I right or am I right). I unwrapped that beautiful white console with the gold map upon it with all the joy, one old fart of a man-boy could contain and quickly ignored my wife and children as I plugged it in and proceeded to lovingly do all the updates and downloads that were required before gaming could begin. I dusted the entertainment center and moved my PS3 down to the bottom row, giving it a found pat, then placed that shiny new PS4 in its rightful & prominent place, its new home! I cleaned the screen on my TV, filled my drink up with my beverage of choice at that time, repositioned my now deceased & much mourned recliner and kept waiting in happy anticipation for all that updating & downloading to finish. As time went by, I purchased a dual controller charger, 3 more controllers, white camo, green camo & midnight blue, to complete my controller family of 4. I brought my CoD Ghosts Turtle Beach headset over from the PS3, but I had some issues, so I bought 2 more Turtle Beach headsets and they did not pair well either. Then I bought a Plantronics Rig 400 and it was wonderful! The mic died on those and I decided to buy something a bit better, so I purchased the Sennheiser GSP 300 headset & new even greater heights of sound quality! Then, Friday night, after a pleasant evening of gaming, some with HoTh, then later with Loot Crate, I decided I was going to buy the discounted ESO on the PlayStation store and then, at that moment of purchase, my PS4 froze! I figured maybe it was an issue with my interwebs, but no, the numbers were strong! After 10 minutes, the old girl relaxed and unfroze. I figured, maybe I had been too rough with her, so I would just put on a show and we could relax together. So I went to the TV app on my PS4 and she struggled, she struggled mightily to satisfy my needs yet again! Then, as a show was selected, she froze once more. After half an hour, she unfroze again and with great concern, I wished her a good night and bid her to get some rest. Then I woke Saturday morning to my kids saying that PS4 was locked up and they could not turn their show on! This was scary news, for with that, I realized she was in serious trouble! So after enough time had past, she unfroze one last time and I shut her down and called a repair shop. She goes in for testing and diagnostics on Monday & I plan to be there waiting for her to make a full recovery! So please wish her the best and send her your thoughts, prayers & donations of Energon to the repair shop where she lies in slumber, awaiting the PS4 certified doctor to save her life and return her to her family & home.
