During covid lockdown, while waiting for a PsV, I broke out my ps3 (which I've kitted out to house a few generations of the majority of my favorite PS library games in the drive) and dug up the large box that still contains all of our old Ps1 game discs. I went back and not only played all my old favorites to see if they still held up and hot damn... I loved every second of it. Not only that, but I now have my ps5 but am still playing the ps1 games more frequently. The games that I think held up the best: Castlevania SOTN Metal Gear Solid Jet Moto Warhawk Twisted Metal 1&2 Gran Turismo 2 Valkyrie Profile Jumping Flash Diablo X-Com (the mouse helps a lot) Die Hard Trilogy (dumb but fun) Sled Storm Tony Hawk 2 Vandal Hearts Front Mission 3 Medal of Honor Underground Tenchu Soul Caliber Tekken 2 (a game I didn't care for when it was new but it plays great for a 3D fighter today) Hogs Of War Herc's Adventures Vagrant Story Crono Cross Alien Trilogy (dumb fun) Beyond The Beyond Suikoden 1 & 2 Breath of Fire 3 G-Police Colony Wars And this list is now too long but my point is that I love this machine and the games it gave me. I wouldn't bother with this mini classic nonsense except to jail break it but the PsX has literally thousands of hours of solid game play even today if you just focus on fun and less on how blocky Lara Croft looks.
Absolutely, the modding community has made this a great little machine. Honestly I just bought it so I could play mgs1 anywhere I wanted, but now I have a fully functioning PS1 with every game on it. I understand that the average consumer will not dive that deep, but I absolutely love my PlayStation classic.
anyone else like me and just turn off vibration on most games these days? some games just use it way way too much.. i seen some AAA games (more like AA) just abusing the rumble function, to the point where its just almost NON stop rumble.. (SOOO imo!!) first off its annoying and secondly, isnt good for your hands...im learning this after about 10 years of rumble. turn your rumble off kids or use it sparingly.. eventually you dont even miss it and dont need it for some games AT ALL. maybe something like a Multiplayer like COD needs it, due to being shot vibrates the remote . you be thanking that random CZcams commenter in the long run. Especially with this new NEXT GEN rumble being even MORE extreme . my wish is for customization with rumble and when it triggers and to be able to turn off certain rumble cues. i appreciate games like rocket league that let you drop it to 0.01
im sure there is like some 12 year old...who got their rumble options maxed out on every game set to like 10.0 rumble on RL..this message is possibly for you kid! you used to be me edit: last edit... i just spent 10m making these messsge slightly grammatically correct and understandable. so i feel so dumb so please consider it
It's funny, as a PC player mainly, I actually miss rumble because it adds to some games. I'm in a good position though. I basically feel rumble every once in a while when I rarely play with a controller or on a console, so it doesn't get old or too much for me.
thanks for uploading these

yes this was a rant about rumble on a 30 year old console
