    I can't believe you didn't mention the DVD player in the PlayStation 2. It is undeniably the reason why it's sold so well. DVD players were really expensive at the time so you could get a game console and a DVD player for cheaper in some cases than just a DVD player. It was literally a game changer.

    I remember switching on HD for the first time on the PS3. I was playing RE5, and I was confused by how blurry the game was. I realised I had forgotten to turn on the setting in the video settings and my mind was officially mind blown. Everything was so sharp, and so crisp that I didn't even know how I put up with SD. I do like the only ascetics of older consoles, but once I hit ps3 I need to have it in HD

  • @Supercon57
    @Supercon57 Před rokem +1451

    Something you didn't mention about the PS3, the reason it launched with such a high price tag was they had physically integrated a PS2 inside of the system so it had the ability to play PS1, PS2, and PS3 games natively with hardware (not through software emulation)
    This allowed for full backwards compatibility for all of their titles but drastically increased the manufacturing costs
    As they released different Iterations of the Fat PS3 they slowly removed these features until it was strictly subpar software emulation
    People like to say they want backwards compatibility but if they really did they would have to pay for it, and history shows people don't want to pay for it...

    Sony entering the market with their own system was actually due to a backstab from Nintendo. Sony intended to enter the market with the Nintendo Playstation, where Sony proveded the CD drive part of the system and create exclusive games for it. DEV kits were already available and some prototypes still exist.
    The project was basically finished when Nintendo pulled the plug, thinking cds were inferior to cartridges, and developed their side of the system into the Nintendo 64.
    Sony had put so much funds into already that they decided to also complete the system and compete with Nintendo with their disc based 3d game console.
    It is hard to say who won. Both created an entire own side of the gaming market that grew alongside eachother and coexist without either side losing sales when the other does well, or gains from it the other falters.
    There WAS a big loser though: Sega was completely pushed out of the market is just a decade, now reduced to a 2nd party dev studio for mainly Nintendo.

      There are more inaccuracies like PS3 doing 720p max. It was 1080p although almost no games would utilize that because the PS3 wasnt strong enough. The home screen did just go 1080p, like some 2d games or simpler games. The cringiest one is where he says the PS4 made fully open worlds possible. I wonder what Skyrim (PS3) is than. Comparing two different TV's and blaming lack of color on HDR is criminally incorrect. I don't know why this man has the need for these weird and tecnically unjust comparisons. It's just wrong. First lesson if you compare two things = compare as equal as possible. smh. PS4 had HDR too. 4k on PS4 is a more complicated story but missed entirely (PS4Pro).

    @ThatSoddingGamer Před rokem +166

    Some additional points:
    _PS2_ - Was also a functional DVD player. DVD players were still sort of new at that point, having come out a few years prior. So the fact that the PS2 could also play DVDs was a useful feature. It worked fine with a controller, but you could buy an optional remote accessory.
    _PS3 & PS4_ (since there is a lot of crossover points) - Mentioned the Blu-ray compatibility, but there actually was a lot of demand for the PS3 in the early days as a relatively cost-effective Blu-ray player (again, remote as an optional accessory) that could also double as a gaming console. It was a better deal than some of the cheaper early BD players that lacked some key features (I think internet features was a big one, internal storage was another, as that was used for some BD Live functionality). You touched on it with the PS4 bit, but it really was a bit of a nightmare to develop for, as I understand it. Because of this, a lot of games released on it performed worse than their X-Box 360 counterparts, in spite of the console being technically more capable. Skyrim was a notable example. That was pretty infamous for turning into a slideshow after some hours of play on a given character. Also, being a bit pedantic, but the PS3 technically supported up to 1080p gaming. It's just most of the games weren't capable of it, or defaulted to lower resolutions for performance reasons, and I'm pretty sure a fair few games on the PS4 were also sub-1080p render resolution. You can turn on the PS3 with the controller. The console had to be in the standby mode, which was standard so long as the switch was set to on at the back of the console.
    One final point though:
    _"I bought every Playstation Ever."_
    *PSP and PSV cry in the corner*
    Those were pretty impressive little machines that blasted their competition (DS/3DS) out of their water both graphically and in terms of sound and just plain looked more premium. How good the games were was of course up to the developers, and the DS/3DS both had dual screens as features, and the 3DS had the 3D functionality (that a lot of people didn't use anyway). Pretty sure the original PSP is still well appreciated for its use as a portable emulation console to this day, even if Sony did do their best to make it much harder than they needed to for people to use it that way.
    And that's discounting spinoffs, like the PS Go, and PSX (Which was a DVR & PS2 combo device) but let's not get carried away.

    • @SIPEROTH

    I can now say that I've owned every major Playstation model. My first system was an SNES, but I was a little too young to enjoy it as much as when I got the PS1. I played Gran Turismo with my brother one night after he got off work from Funcoland, and I was hooked. The following Christmas he and my parents threw in for the console, and I played through all the big hits with Metal Gear Solid, Crash Bandicoot 2, Jet Moto 2, NHL 1999 (Eric Lindros being on the cover was amazing growing up a Flyers fan), Final Fantasy VII, Chrono Cross, Gran Turismo 1 and 2, and my favorite game of all time, Star Ocean Second Story.
    I ended up skipping PS2 for the most part and eventually got an XB360, but went back to Sony for the PS3, bought the PS4 at launch and after a year and a half was able to grab a PS5. I also finally bought a PS2 and have been working my way through some of the games I missed during that console generation, completing the cycle.
    The plan is to put all of these old system in a game room with a quality converter to mimic a CRT, and give my kids the ability to experience each generation.

    It was essentially Gran Tourismo that propelled Sony PS. The game (GT) was a massive risk for its creators due to its insane complexity for the time, and it literally took more than a decade (yes, a decade) to be developed. There is a video on YT about it, that I watched about a year ago and found really interesting - look it up. We have come really far when it comes to gaming, consoles in particular, and I believe that in the next 10-15 years we will see an even more rapid and revolutionary development - mostly due to combining VR and emerging AI capabilities.

    I first found the ps1 in my grandmothers attic yellowed and covered with all the garbage you can imagine. Up until that point I was never interested in what the games of the past were. But at that moment when I blowed the dust off this almost unrecognisable technology my eyes lit up like never before. At that moment I knew that retro gaming is all I could ever want. I grabbed the console ignoring the countless spiders resting upon it and immediately went into my grandfathers workshop to start disassembling it. 12 hours later with an empty bottle of cleaning alcohol, a bucket of now dirty water and scattered equipment I had a fully functioning ps1 with two working controllers. Since then I’ve collected countless games for countless consoles in my retro collection but I will never forget the day when I got that unthinkable amount of adrenaline from a simple grey box

    The PS2 wasn't 'technically' the first time you could play your games online, many consoles could go online well before the PS2, although the Dreamcast was probably the first one that had online out-of-the-box, without additional hardware purchase.

      Pretty sure the Apple Pippin was the first one. But it was probably the biggest flop in videogaming history. And i feel like the CDI did, but it might have been an add-on. But yeah you are spot on. You could technically take your Atari 2600 online back in the day.
