I want this era to come back. I'm not even shitposting, I'm being genuine.
fucking retard
>>721727382What's stopping you? Go back to it.
>>721727382>everyone pirates everything>games run like shit>playstation was only worth it because of GTASame as it ever was
>>721727382Why would you be shitposting? It was the golden era of innovation and a perfect balance between art style and decent graphics. The acceptable development costs allowed for smaller companies to breath and release physical games.
5th gen was the sweet spot.
>>721727382depends entirely on what specifics you want from that era
>>721727382Just ignore modern high budget games, go full retro and indie. I myself haven't played anything modern since Elden Ring. Right now I'm playing Archolos and thinking of replaying vanilla New Vegas.
>>721729279Too many "soul/souless" shitposters
>>721729635I just want games that are cool againI want playstation to have that cool mysterious near future Y2K whatever you call it aesthetic back.Modern Playstation is so fucking gay now, even with games like Stellar Blade and Astro Bot
>>721729008Money and aging hardwareThat's why I like remasters but there's always the risk of censorship
>>721727382I get you, it was probably the last gen where games were getting noticeably better and better each year. The final fantasy 10, 10-2, 11, and 12 are an example of this.
>>721728552Shut up zoomer
>>721733273just get a cheap ps2, hard drive, and free crt off faceberg marketplace
>>721733273Is your ps2 functioning or not? Mine still works and I play a game on it every now and then, among many other consoles and pc. If it's dead then getting a working used one is not that hard, although it might require some deep cleaning. If it's not dead then wtf are you complaining about, go play your ps2. There are enough good exclusives to last a lifetime on it.
>>721733096https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g2dlmtcnGkcI think this is related to what you're saying
>>721727382put an OPL hard drive into a fat PS2 and you're right back, simple as
Me with the early 2010s.
>>721733546Tekken 4 is so bad.
lol
>>721733273I literally just bought a working PS2 slim and a couple games for one day’s worth of pay. They’re really not that expensive and replacement parts are plentiful given how many units sold. You could go even cheaper and just softmod it, which removes the cost of the games and the most common failure point (the laser). But I like physical media so I don’t mind.
>>721733431>>721733530>>721734369Mine works, in fact I have two, one OG model, and a slim.My main concerns are the expensive games and sorry if I sound petty, a lack of a proper CRT
>>721727382the games aged like milk, play them again so you can see
>>721727382>d*scsTalk about vidya icks and not even on ecks.
>>721736526buy the hard drive adapter and hard drive for gamesc
>>721727382You want a bunch of mediocre JRPGs and failed 3D platformer mascots? We have that right now.
>>721727382In this era, Black people were seen as nothing more than sidekicks, trans people were the butt of jokes, and women were nothing more than eye candy. Is that what you really want you fucking chud?
>>721727382I tuned out here. That was the moment games started to focus on graphics with no substance.
>>721733273Despite some /v/tard's autistic shitflinging PS2 emulation is perfectly fine for 99.9% of the games.
>>721737041No, he wants to play singstar, eyetoy games, guitar hero games and konmi dance dance revolution games.
