>AmplitudeIncredibly soulful rhythm game with an excellent soundtrack and a unique concept and tailored around a normal controller. Why has no one made a clone of this? Best thing I've played so far.>Maximo Ghosts to GloryLike a cross between Banjo-Kazooie, Crash Bandicoot, and Dark Souls unironically. I've played through the first world twice because the first time my lives/continues/coins situation was dire, and I kind of like that the game has real punishments like that. Camera is bad, but other than that it's a really fun game.>Burnout 3 TakedownWhat can I say, it's Burnout. One of the best racing games of all time.>Dark CloudThis one I'm not so sold by. Barely played it though. Nice looking game, sasuga the DQVIII devs, but the combat doesn't seem that good. The town building part might be fun though.Overall, uncs were onto something frfr these games are bussin 67
>>728994358which "ps2 aesthetic" video groomed you, zoomer
>>728994358all uncslop
>>728994530they wish they were chadllennials so bad it’s cringe
for all this "uncslop" talk, you young'uns sure love old stuff in a new dress.my generation was a bit more imaginative in this regard, albeit just as cringe.
>>728994530nothing i've always been a little retrofaggoti used to look at that one page in nintendo power with all the mario sprites for an inordinate amount of timeI've played PS2 games in emulation but I got the real console cuz I felt like it
>>728995174I like the console itself a lot, I got a FAT 50000 so the fans are super quiet even with the hard drive running and you can turn it on with a remote since it has infraredOnly thing I don't like is that the dpad is a little squishy for a game like Amplitude, I feel like the Series X dpad and its clickyness would be better for itSkibidi rizz what is this diddyblud doing on the calculator
>>728994358You know a good portion of zoomers grew up on the ps2.
>>728994976I feel like the modern AAA game was standardized in the 7th gen with stuff like Assassin's Creed and The Last of UsClosest thing that feels like a modern AAA in 6th gen is maybe Shadow of Rome? Not insulting that game though.
Uncslop is a forced sharty meme.
>>728996037I've never been on the sharty except that one time 4chan was kill and I didn't even use it that much because it fucking genuinely sucks even when it had the 4chan refugees it was just unusableAll altchans fucking suck honestly and saying otherwise is cope, they're the imageboard equivalent to bluesky
>>728994358Being able to slap FreeMcBoot on a memory card and play any burned game was cool. I wish modern consoles were less secureAlso i suddenly want an old PS2 and a CRT...
>>728996618>Being able to slap FreeMcBoot on a memory card and play any burned game was coolThat's wrong though. FMCB only allows you to play games off of a hard drive or USB (or more recently a Memory Card with an SD card slot)To play burned games you still need either MechaPwn, SwapMagic, or a modchip.
>>728996660Nah he's right, I modded my PS2 back in 2013 and I was playing burnt DVDs. There's a homebrew you launch through FMCB for it- FreeDVDboot, or something.
>>728994530What causes this behavior?
>>728996840If he was born in 2002 he's literally those guysPretending to be born in le wrong generation when the PS2 was still popular in 2010 when he was 8 and his dad probably bought one for MaddenHe also definitely had a CRT and a VHS player
>>728996660>>728996719It's been a while so my memory is sketchy, i did have a SwapMagic disk but i'm pretty sure it wasn't necessary at some pointTalking of HDDs i did have a good time with my old hacked Wii playing throwaway shit you'd never actually buy. Which was pretty much the entire Wii library
>>728996840Because up until recently when they started spamming unc, zoomers desperately wanted daddy millennial's approval.They finally realized it's a lost cause and they will never be liked, so now they're throwing a temper tantrum.
>>728994976nikolay?
>>728997038Both the Wii and PS2 are absolutely loaded with fucking shovelware but I'm pretty sure the PS2 ultimately had way more good/solid games than the Wii. Though Wii gets points for first-party Nintendo games at least.
>>728994358When did you get your PS2 OP? I literally only got mine in 2019 to play pic related because PCSX2 sucked dog water for me back then. Playing MGS2 last year on it was pretty cool too!
>>728998172Well I've had a slim PS2 since I was a kid, since my Dad bought it probably around 2004ish because I would've had to have been too young to remember it. But then again the oldest files on the memory card are from 2007, so maybe I was old enough to remember but didn't notice somehow? Anyway in my memory it was just kinda there at some point. I only ever really played Guitar Hero III and Mega Man Anniversary Collection on it since the other games my dad had were dogshit sportslop.I got the Fat PS2 a few weeks ago because I felt like playing games off of the hard drive. USB loading is a no-go for me since I saw how the FMVs stutter. I'm perfectly fine with emulation but playing on a TV is nice and there's something kinda neat about playing on original hardware. Not saying it's objectively worth it, but I dunno it's kinda cool. And yeah there are downsides to PCSX2 in particular, they've ironed out a lot of issues but you still get random stutters in games like Gradius V for example
>>728994358My dad got me a PS2 slim for Christmas either '04 or '05 and I inherited all my games from my uncle, most of which being PS1 games.I think just on quantity alone, even more so if you count the PS1's library, the PS2 easily clears as one of the best catalogs out there. Most of the games I own are PS2 games and they're almost all from when I was a kid. I think overall I prefer the fifth generation of game, I find myself mostly playing PS1 and Saturn games, but the PS2 library is incredible and almost everything is modern enough to not really feel super janky and unplayable.The gap in gameplay smoothness and style from the sixth gen to now really isn't that wide, remakes of games from that time feel more like complete departures that ruin the game or at best feel like more of a game you already like like RE4 Remake.From one Zoomie to another, the PS2 is goated.I haven't even bothered with Sony since the PS4.
Speaking of PS2 hardware, is there a definitive list of games that have memory card corruption bugs? I know about SoulCalibur III, any others so I can avoid those bugs?
