Sometimes you just need help. But often times making a new post isn't needed. For the time being, around launch and perhaps in the future. We will use a single thread for helping each other out.
Before asking, we ask you to look at a few links. Some question can't be answered and only official PlayStation support can help you.

Articles & Blogs Former PlayStation Boss Admits He Used To Ignore Orders From Sony HQ
Primary source is paywalled, so here are some of the main parts of the interview:
“When I was president of Sony Computer Entertainment handling the PlayStation home console business, whenever Howard [Stringer] and the other executives told me this or that, I went my own way, saying, ‘What the headquarters says is irrelevant. We are PlayStation’ (laughs),” Hirai recalled. This amusing tidbit was shared during a conversation with Takaya Awata, CEO of Marugame Udon’s parent company Toridoll Holdings, published by Japanese business media Nikkei XTrend (paywalled).
He also pointed out some challenges he undertook when taking over as Sony CEO
“‘When will he pull the rug out from under us?’ or ‘Maybe he’s the kind of person who takes all the credit while blaming subordinates for failures?’, among other things, everyone was watching me with worry,” said Hirai. “Without respect, no one is going to think, ‘Let’s work hard together!'”
“During the six years I served as president, I visited over 20 countries and close to 50 cities, perhaps? Going just once isn’t enough,” he continued. He explained that employees initially doubted whether such a busy CEO would ever return after his first tour. But when he actually showed up again, their reactions were found to be amusing. “It was like, ‘He really came back, this old guy!’ (laughs),” reminisced Kaz.

Discussion Just beat Big Walk with 3 friends. What an incredible game
I would never have expected such an unassuming game to make me feel so strongly about 20 hours of gameplay. Incredible memories, great soundtrack, surprising moments, compelling gameplay.
10/10. Just hoping for a spooky Halloween update 👀

Discussion Hellraiser Revival is soooo good!
About half way through the game and it's really my game of the year so far. The story and art direction is great, gameplay is fun and it's genuinely a terrifying experience! Pretty much RE7 or RE4 with a hellraiser skin and i FUCKING LOVE IT!

Discussion Keep Driving PS Release
I was randomly scrolling through the PS store and I saw Keep Driving in the NEW section. I played this on Steam a while back and it's a great little RPG, road tripping game with great music and great graphic style. Caught me off guard because I had no idea that it was coming to console.

Discussion Star Wars Galactic Racer
Guys,
This game is amazing. I highly recommend it. It’s like a mixture of Wipeout and Burnout.
It is extremely fun and addicting. I think it will become even better as it appears the devs are taking player feedback seriously.
The campaign is excellent and the multiplayer has the potential to be fantastic with a few improvements.
This will definitely tie me over until GTA.
EDIT: tide me over :)
