Although, that's partly because i absolutely botched a repaste and I'm too afraid to open it up again.
How badly did you botch it? Did you get thermal paste all over the board or are we talking you delidded the chips and disaster struck?

Agreed. Slim PS2s just kinda suck, especially the late ones. My friend has one of them, and half the time his discs don't read.
Maybe the laser just needs to get cleaned. I have one of the last revisions of the Slim and it's still chugging along fine.
 
I'm actually jazzed as fuck that Chinese and Korean games are getting attention alongside the usual Japanese stuff because their output is surprisingly decent.

The western games industry is fucking done and dusted outside of the yearly updates for CoD/sports games and those franchises are facing declining numbers as well
Yeah it pretty fucked on Western Side of thing when it comes to game development the only thing I'm looking forward is Doom The Dark Ages and Expedition 33 but majority of them I'm interested is from the Eastern Side.

Well, neither. Delidding is way above my knowledge, haha. I used some mystery whatever thermal paste which came with a CPU cooler my friend bought (the paste was colored bronze for some reason) that I'm not too sure if it worked well or not. However, in the process of opening it up, I stripped one screw on the motherboard and lost a few other screws. Next time, I'll pay someone else to do it.

Could be. I'll ask him about it later.
The version of Ico in the Ico + Shadow of the Colossus remaster pack is scuffed and bluepoint broke or removed the bloom, for some reason. SoTC is fine and its the best way to play outside an emulator, the PS4 remakemaster is a steaming pile of garbage that completely misunderstood every design choice made and thought it was all just technical limitations, destroying the entire visual style.

If you want to play Ico unmolested, play the European version, the NA version was released before the game was finished because they wanted it out for the holiday and a bunch of content is missing or not as good. The PS3 version is based on the European version, but the no bloom kills it, its a massive part of the game's visual identity.
Yeah, I heard of how bad the PS4 version of SoTC was. I'll emulate the EU version of Ico then as well, unless if PCSX2 also fucks up the bloom in some way.
 
Decided to watch the state of play to see if they would announce Stellar blade on PC release which i got and im also interested in the new digimon game. That said this has been the worse state of play. Any reason to own the paper weight thats the ps5 has gone out the window. Do yourself a favor and next time you decide to shell out 700 or whatever price that is, instead just get a pc and youll be able to play an essentially infinite catalogue of games.

Bio of hans, the person in question. NOTE, it says UNDERAGE in his bio, his birth is 1388.
intro saying the year is 1403. This puts him at 15.
And heres an IGN article showing the scene, which FUNNILY ENOUGH asks you to verify if you are 17 first (no ID check don't worry, but still ironic.)
Well damn, that's crazy.

Tides of Annihilation actually looks pretty decent, like a solid 7/10. Kinda generic looking and the chick's mug is bordering on the masculine side but stops just short of it, thankfully. Looks like a real game, imagine that.

Digimon games are very hit-and-miss for me, but it seems good too.
 
Let's check in and see how the Sony fans at Icon-era are enjoying and rating the state of play

No PC ports announced at state of play, cry about it - only classes newly announced 1st party games that weren't previously announced as PC ports as "no PC ports".

Several OT threads with 0 engagement for announced games

Nothing else other than attacking PC players and coping that PS5 is still teh best. lol, lmao even.

There's a thread where posters are calling the PS5 a traditional console and coping that it has the best software line up in Playstation history :story:

Should run completely fine, upping the resolution might cause bloom issues but there might be a cheat/patch for it, its been a long time since I've emulated it. I believe there is also a 60fps patch as well. If you have a CRT you can use its unironically a night and day difference playing on one, its one of those 'made for a CRT' games. Not the end of the world if you don't, just something to keep in mind if you want the pure authentic experience.
 
So I finally sat down and skimmed through all the trailers. A lot of generic slop with niggers.

The Midnight Walk looks interesting.

The octopus game (Darwin's Paradox) is bad because octopus is delicious.

The Sonic Racing games on PS3 are fucking excellent, and I don't doubt this will be fun as well. It will probably be on Switch 2 though lol.

I'm still excited for Onimusha.

Not much, I'm probably coping.
 
That’s the worst presentation I’ve seen in years. Only cool thing i saw was a new Sonic racer and that shit is cross platform.

If you’re going to copy Nintendo with these State of Plays, atleast give us some good games. I’m so happy i made the decision to check out of playstation years ago. Just slop after slop today. Sony could have given us God of War remasters or Uncharted remasters pc date. Or a new killzone or Socom. Sad.

That's some massive coping right there. My cousin has around 10 PS5 games so far and that's it. The unit might as well be a playable yet expensive paperweight at this point.

Since some good few years I am under impression Japanese are slowly losing relevance in gaming, now chicoms and gooks catched up. This Tides of Anihilation, I would never have thought it is Chinese, yet here it is. Even if it's another fucking souls.

As for West, why bother with originality, home market will buy any DEI slop/yearly update that should be a 10 USD DLC. Except they won't anymore.
Emulation is gay.
Have fun with crappy, watered down 70 USD remasters, nigger.
 
This white piece of shit isn't a game console at this point. It's a crappy netflix machine.
Seriously. I still use my PS4 for Netflix because it runs better on the 12 yr old hardware

I find myself getting more interested in playing only indies and emulating older consoles. Back in the PS1 and PS2 eras, so many good games came out every year, even with all the free time I had, there's no way I could play them all. And even the best games (mostly) still hold up well.

What better time to go back and experience them?
 
... So the most interesting shit to come out of this was a new Digimon game. What a sad sack of shit :story:
