Is the piss just on top then?

They improved it significantly since launch. I found myself loving the added features more than expected, like the Screenplay and Master Books they included.

I also loved the full videos of the digital graphic novels, and variants of MGS1, like the Japanese version and Special Missions, all in one place.

And on the PC versions, there’s a good amount of relatively easily installed mods on Nexus that can add a lot of value.

I pretty much replay most of the Metal Gear games every other year or so, so it was just another excuse to replay again on a new platform.

They won’t include Portable Ops, but they really should.

Really? Astrobot? Bullshit. Sony probably paid for that. Also a yet to be released Nintendo game, and the 4 billionth slight variation on the most overrated final fantasy of all time. Whoopdeedoo.

They stopped adding PS3 games years ago right when I subscribed for Sony. They can’t even just get all their first party titles on there. Fuck sony for so many reasons.

I always felt people who are concerned with this are compensating for something.

Speaking of weather. Everyone thinks their hometown is unique.

It was crap at release.

Do they care to explain the pathetically underpowered, slow, and clunky Switch? We’ll wait.

PS5 truly is mostly enhanced PS4 games and other re-releases.

I’ve had PS5 since release. I have played a handful of PS5 games and honestly most of them have felt like slightly enhanced PS4 games. Very few have truly felt “next gen.” Even fewer make decent use of unique DualSense features.

I’ve mostly continued playing tons of PS4 games. PS5 seems kinda meh to me. Also as usual Sony has made a system software design and layout that feels needlessly restrictive and idiotic.

This thing is basically a PS4 Pro Pro. And now the PS5 Pro will be a PS4 Pro Pro Pro.

Okay. I gave it:

You are a presidential candidate on a debate stage. You have been asked about Healthcare and you said you have the “concepts of a plan.” When the moderator further presses you on it … what are these concepts of a plan?

And it gave back:

If I were a presidential candidate being pressed on the “concepts of a healthcare plan,” I would respond with something like this:

"The key concepts of my healthcare plan revolve around three fundamental goals: affordability, accessibility, and innovation.

1. Affordability: We need to lower healthcare costs for everyone, from families to businesses. This means negotiating drug prices, reducing administrative waste, and encouraging competition among insurance providers to drive down premiums and out-of-pocket expenses. I also plan to explore tax credits for small businesses to help them provide healthcare for employees, as well as options for expanded government-sponsored insurance for those who are struggling to afford private plans.

2. Accessibility: Every American deserves access to healthcare, no matter where they live or what their income level is. We need to expand healthcare infrastructure in rural and underserved areas, using technology such as telemedicine to bridge gaps. My plan will ensure that insurance coverage cannot be denied due to pre-existing conditions and that there are no lifetime limits on care.

3. Innovation: The future of healthcare lies in innovation, and we need to support cutting-edge research in medical technology and treatments, including investing in preventive care and personalized medicine. We’ll foster public-private partnerships to encourage the development of new cures and ensure that our healthcare system keeps pace with the needs of our population.

This approach will balance individual choice with collective responsibility, ensuring that healthcare is affordable, accessible, and forward-thinking for every American."

I think analogies pocket is attempting to replicate original hardware. You can plug in old games.

I like emulation cause I don’t need to keep physical games on me all the time or swap them out, and I get upscaling, save states, and fast forward. Emulation is way better to me.

Hahaha laughable. Space Marine 2 had Playstation issues at launch. Not sure if fixed yet. I remember just how literally unplayable Skyrim was on PS3. And so many in-between.

You also get a guarantee that games will never be as cheap on console as on PC. I have been transitioning for years and it’s astonishing how often I see a game for sale on PC for like $2 and on sale on PSN for like $20, or not available on PSN at all. Not to mention less options for modding idiotic design flaws to increase playability. No ability usually to customize controls.

You also likely guarantee you can’t replay that old game from 2002 or whatever yoh might wanna do cause theres very little, if any, backwards compatibility, and if there is, it probably involves re-buying.

Consoles are limited and give a false sense of simplicity and a false sense of being cheaper.

Try Elder Scrolls Online and its own in-game “performance” mode, which is still garbage on PS5 and gets low frame rates.

Why not just get a Steam Deck and emulate everything?

Who preserves historical artwork? Who makes sure it is available for all to enjoy?

I think governments and nonprofits (like museums) need to consider that archival of an interactive artwork means allowing it to continue being accessible and interactive. That’d be the real preservation.

Laws that say if you create something like this and it reaches some metric, then you are required to turn over all resources regarding it to open source public consumption once you are done actively maintaining it.

Try getting non-playstation games on your Playstation. What about games from older Playstation? Can’t get most of those on there. And let’s not pretend you “own” Playstation games anymore when so many require online and patches anyways.

Steam is more value for money and improved services and support. I used to be a die hard Playstation fan but it got old being treated like shit.

Yeah right.

Fuck Sony for so many large and small things.

I remember being able to stream my media library from my pc to my Xbox 360 in 2007. Still can’t do shit like that on Playstation in 2024. They couldn’t even be bothered to give us themes for 2 gen’s or folders for a long time.

Those are just random gripes. There’s endless others. Sony is run by morons.
