Now that PS2 emulation is pretty good. What have you been playing?
Just started Portal Runner.collect gemsplatformshoot enemiescute girlfunny voice actingSimpler times lads.
Tried out Twisted Metal Head On.Wasn't too impressed.
>>697480731>Now that PS2 emulation is pretty gooduh welcome to 10+ years ago?
>>697480731Finished Onimusha: Warlords.Planning of going through the rest of the series, in anticipation for the future sequel.
>>697480731I'm a retro streamer and I play a lot of PS2 games. I'm playing Shadow the Hedgehog this week because I wanna beat it before the movie comes out, it's honestly pretty fun!
>>697484202Even mediocre games from that time period are looking pretty good by today's standards.
>>697480731Call me when it's good on a phone.
>>697480731why would I emulate when I could just use my PS2
>>697484448honestly I think the graphics arms race has been destructive for the industry in so many ways, I'd be perfectly happy if games stopped at 6th gen level graphics. then they could focus on what matters most, the gameplay and game design.
>>697484761>6th gen graphics>good gameplayYou just described the Switch.
I'm setting up a PS2 emulator on my phone, what game should I play first
>>697485078I've found a lot of Switch games to be rather underwhelming in terms of delivery on the gameplay front, most modern games I like tend to be indie games these days.
>Thing is only good and viable when i discover itYou retards really have no concept of anything do you
>>697485142Whatever game you like. Why did you install an emulator if you didn't have any games in mind to play?
>>697484202>I'm a retro streamerThis you too?>>697485025
>>697480731The only game series that matters.
>>697485261yes
>>697485189Because it's free
>>6974852843 and 4 are the only ones I've played.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir20Qo5DTSo
>>697485470So is malware. Go download some of that too.
>>697485314I think you should kill yourself
I assume this is rougher than the xbox version, but is it still worth checking out?
What's the best Dynasty Warriors on PS2?
>>697485548Didn't Black get a PC release?
>>697485160Lol
>>697480731Xenosaga, currently at episode 3. Despite it's flaws I liked episode 1 more than both Xenogears and Xenoblade but then episode 2 is kinda just bad. Still fairly early into the game but episode 3 is shaping up to be the best of the bunch.
>>697485537I think you should fill your heart with love and kindness for your fellow man and not take the easy path of aggression because of your anonymitythe world can only become nicer if people try
PS2 chugs like shit on my Steam DeckWhat do?
>>697485606Never ever
>>6974837233 emulates well but last time I tried the second game was very broken on PCSX 2, hopefully it's better now.
>>697480731Onimusha Dawn of Dreams, wish I had played it much earlier honestly
>>697480731It's a bone-afide classic
>>697485659What games are you trying to play? Play at 720p or 900p. I use vulkan and the only games I couldn't "run" were the Musashiden sequel and dirge of Cerberus.
>>697485753This game was fire, it reminds me of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater for some reason
>>697485798I was trying out Punisher. Read something about battery settings, are there per-game battery settings to find somewhere on the Deck?
>>697485657You were supposed to answer in kind with negativity and hatred... why would you do this to me? Now i feel bad.
Absolute banger
>>697485926I don't want to be that kind of person, I want to leave things better than I found them if I canalways remember that there's another person behind the screen when you're talking to someone online
>>697485491You need to play zero and 5 immediately.https://youtu.be/zi4RXQ8eik8
>>697480873That games ASS, play sarges war instead bud.
>>697485659It depends on the game from what I've seen. Most run great but for some reason LA Rush and Midnight Club run like shit even on native resolution.
>>697485995You seem alright, post your stream.
>>697485753Absolutely unhinged game.>dedicated shit button>onions green dog slaughter house
>>697486223https://www.twitch.tv/harumizukich
>>697485798Deck can't really run much of anything very well higher than 900p. Kinda disappointing. The Switch does docked mode better.
>>697486034Everyone dies. I hate dark shit like that.
>>697486354MODSMODSSSSSSS
>>697483326Ever since 2.x got rolled into the stable tree, weirdos are discovering it.
>>697486431That's why you dont stop until every last tan tank is destroyed. The game starts with a literal war crime, you don't wanna fuck up the tans after seeing that?
>>697486665I make sure to delete all games in my roms dir that match the following masks:*army*men**call*of*duty**NFL**NHL**NBA**MLB**FIFA**pokemon**harry*potter*
>>697480731Played while emulation was shit at like 20 fps, now I'm doing doing hard mode
>>697486665No it just makes me not want to play edgy crap like that. The only way they could redeem it is if Sarge uses portal fuckery to bring them back.
>>697485753I rented that from gamefly and never gave it back then they went out of business
>>697487095Took a screenshot of it the other day, coincidentally. The high res makes the horrible LoD on the PS2 obvious (look at the chihuahua model to the right of the brown fence).
>>697487296The game should've been playing as a pitbull.
Does the PlayStation 2 have any twinstick shooters?
>>697487394>maul 5 babies to death within 3 minutes!
>>697480731Mister mosquito
>>697480731>Nowkill yourself zoomertroon secondary
>>697484202at least play the gamecube version, ps2 is fucked
>>697486890I was running it at 1080p and no frame drops back in the beta days. Only issues was the shadow bug that is incredibly minor
>>697480731any of this.as for what i've actually been playing>Zeonic Front was a genuine surprise, most Gundam games are shit but I have a feeling the devs behind this also made Target in Sight, Side Stories, GBO1 and GBO2 (some of the better gundam games that actually focus on mechs, gunevo was just mech flavored)>Zone of the Enders 2 was a fantastic find, honestly, loved every bit of it>Yakuza 1 on the PS2 is way jankier than Kiwami, but that dub man, couldn't stop laughing>Sword of Etheria has a really weird combo system that's a little hard to get into (it requires your teammates so you can get power-ups and do big combos), but it's REALLY fun and has a great story to boot>VOTOMS is genuinely the best anime adaptation i've ever played, it is LITERALLY Anime: The Game. down to the flashcards and all, also is a fantastic mech action game underneath all that
>>697486354This is a tranny who selfposts and promotes on several threads of /vt/ including the retro one, and people hated him so much they had to split the thread into 2, one for only females (again, he is a male).He appeals to coomers to grow and has hit a wall, and I guess he is so desperate to grow he is now shilling on fucking /v/ of all places.Also, he seems to always mention being a "retro streamer" even tho it shouldn't matter, just for "someone" to ask about it so he can shill his channel in these threads.Kill yourself Haruhttps://arch.b4k.co/v/search/text/retro%20streamer/page/1/
>>697493010I could tell by their first post that they're just using 4chan to advertise their stream.
>>697494397>theirhis
>>697494945I hope he enjoys his vacation.
>>697484448It mostly that they get to the point much faster and dont overstay their welcome. An average gen 6 game is like 5 hours or so. So even a whatever game is alright for a playthrough
>>697481178really? i like head on, it's not Black but still pretty good
>>697498509Maybe I just don't like vehicle combat. I kinda enjoyed Vigilante 8 though. Twisted Metal just seems cheaply made and looks pretty simple for a PS2 game.
>>6974857531000%
>>697498992well, head on was originally a PSP gametwisted metal black is the one that was designed for PS2
>>697486354YWNBAW
>>697480731been playing CV pretty comfy
>>697480731I was playing a PS2 with OPL the last 15 years so I'm done with the console, the only game I couldn't figure out how to run was Cold Fear.
Went through God Hand recently. Emulation still isn't perfect, with persistent z-fighting issues in a few stages that aren't there on original hardware, but damn if the game still doesn't feel fucking great despite 30fps cap.
Can't I just watch games?
