Almost certainly won't happen but the admittedly weak rumors of Silent Hills being announced is supposed to happen tonight.

I don't buy it but it would make me squeal like a little girl if it did.

The majority of console gamers are still on 1080p TVs.
Agree that a slim will always happen but a Pro is up in the air for the exact reason you mentioned. At most they can further guarantee a 4K 120 experience...which seems an iffy reason to make a PS5 Pro.

Impossible? No.
Likely? No.

I stood in line at a Walmart for almost 24 hours for a PS2. I wasn't even old enough to drive but there I waited. No bathroom break. No snack. No water. Haha.
Walmart handed everyone in line a ticket to account for a console and had 27 tickets. I won't ever forget that. I was the 12th person. I mowed lawns and walked dogs for months to save for it.

All day long people, often groups of people, would come in and offer to buy your place/ticket. Nobody budged. ...

Yeah, this is cool for owners but the story title is a little misleading.

It's free to those that already own it on any platform, even PC. VERY cool but not free, it's "free".

Epic Launcher free games are shockingly, literally free. As in free-free. You make an account and without spending a penny they just give you games that you fully own with no strings attached at all. The only slight hiccup is that most of the titles need Epic Launc...

Looks the same and they're still using the same trash engine so a hard pass for the 14th year in a row. Sad how far they fell from the PS2 glory days.

He edited the behavior in that one area, as well as dropping the resolution to 720p. Very cool but not a universal fix.

Now, if someone wanted to spend about a year to go through the entire game and do the same we'd have a patch.

My money is on a straight-up remaster on PS5 anyway so it's probably not worth the effort for anyone to do.

@Shaggy

Yeah, I was pretty sure it was Fallout so thanks for confirming. I recall watching a pretty funny video where a user cranked it up to 120fps on PC and the world just imploded. Objects were swirling around in air, ragdoll physics sent haywire, etc. It was funny stuff.

@NapalmSanctuary
Yeah, after dropping the frame rate and editing some behavior files. To make it work in more than that specific area that he edited would require a lot more editing. At that point you just remake/remaster the game (my bet on what's going to happen).

You seem like a cool dude and not at all like a total fn r*tard lol

Did you read anything in the article?

The game physics and most logic are tied to framerates (30fps). Meaning the game essentially runs in fast forward at 60fps.

There won't be a 60fps patch until they literally remake the game to work normally at 60fps.

All this modder did (as awesome as his work is) is edit the eboot and param.sfo to run at 60fps. It's not hard and anyone can do it with a hackable PS4 (firmware 505 or lower)....

I swear that the Tropico Team is made up of exactly 2 people and they work 30 hours a week. Max.

No game has a better premise with lackluster execution than Tropico. Such a good idea, such a tired and lame franchise. 1-3 are fine but by 4 it was just the same game AGAIN.

Now you're getting Twitter DLC and 4 new outfits! Wow!
Yeah, you get to be a moron leader on Twitter because that's so cool in actual life. Lol

Crazy idea here but maybe try to go away from the ultra-realistic visuals/style. That could be cool and only hardcore wrestling fans buy the WWE 2K games even when decent.

Look at Fire Pro Wrestling. You could make wrestling game with that art style but real wrestlers, modern and classic. Then, add in a ultra-detailed editor and make the game slightly more arcade-like. Make it easier for a newbie to play but deep enough for a hardcore fan to enjoy.

Just a...

As others have said, that was straight-up theft lol

Now, if you didn't care and enjoyed the 160GB slim, who cares? Maybe the 60GB features didn't matter to you and, if so, best to ya.

Me? My 60GB phat got YLOD back in 2010 and I'm literally still trying to fix it. I need a few parts and this whole viral pandemic thing slowed my progress but I loved it so much that I simply won't let it die. If they did that to me I'd have gone FULL John Wi...

It was New Zealand back at launch. They messed up at launch and you could get it for free for about a day. Even after fixing the issue they let everyone that grabbed it keep it. Kinda cool.

It can only be licensing because it's so easy on a 505 PS4. I do it all the time and most titles work perfectly using basic settings of a simple app that the hacking scene made.

Why they can't do it for Sony games is another issue. That comes down to them either wanting to sell it again or not caring much about BC.

PS3 absolutely cannot be emulated on PS4. You're high of you think it can. You do not know what you're talking about lol

PS5? If specs are accurate it's possible but then again it would have to be done via software and they'd just use PCSX3, an emulator that has about a 40% accuracy hit right now. It could be done hypothetically, unlike PS4.

Yup. I have a 505 console that I will not update and it has nothing to do with piracy. Don't care, don't do it.

It does a lot of cool stuff and PS2 games unsupported by Sony in 1080 is awesome.

They'd have to basically take on a "mom & pop" / 2nd hand store style of business.

1 - Drop prices. Their resale games should be about half of what they are. That or raise the amount given on trade-in. Give the customer a reason to go to your store.

2. Immediately stop the constant barrage of offers, from memberships to magazines to "game insurance". Just stop.

3. Change the entire culture of the store. This ...

Perfect reply. I'm not at all into JRPGs or even most resembling them but tried P3 on PSP and loved it. I then tried P1&2 and couldn't enjoy them at all.

The model they built with P3 onward is the key to Persona. Start with 3 and only play any before it if you finish 5 and cannot get enough. Even then prepare to be disappointed.

Wow, close to what I heard a year ago and posted the other day. I guess it had a heavy gothic vibe, werewolves and all. The description I heard a year ago was "Castlevania without the platforming". We'll see.
