Aren't you glad all those timeless PS2 games are ported to newer platforms so you can get a better experience on modern hardware? This way you don't need a PS2 ever again.

Sad part is, PS2 emulation is still stuck in a dark age from which it will never emerge, so the console will never be truly preserved. But then again human civilization appears to be collapsing in a few decades so probably the least of our worries.

Honestly. All my favorite video games are now shit so can this gay earth just end already.

Why is PS2 able to handle translucent textures better than the more advanced consoles that came after?

I have 2 PS2s. I'm good for the collapse.

Because no one who made the HD version put in the effort to translate the code properly. Developer skill is about 80% of what matters on a project.

Meh, some hair is not a deal breaker to me, so yes i am glad.

Insane amount of bandwidth, transparencies/particle effects are basically free on PS2.

Why didn't they just forward port the same techniques to Piss3?

They went with an Nvidia GPU so that was impossible.

Where is my Maximo HD remaster collection, Capcom!?!?!

Still no ports or remasters of

Xenosaga

DotHack

Star Ocean 3 (a version that doesn't crash every 5 minutes)

Maximo 1 and 2

Crash Twinsanity

Simpsons Hit n Run

Fucking GoW 1 and 2

Why didn't they just keep making bespoke CPUs, VPUs, and IPUs that required everything to be coded in assembly just so they could keep a handful of built-in graphic effects

Because that would be really expensive and stupid.

PS2 games were not coded in assembly, anon

all those timeless ps2 games

like what? the ps2 is such a horribly overhyped console. there’s maybe 20 good games on it at most.

More than the PS4's 1 and the PS5's 1 (pending PC port of Stellar Blade)

20? That's 20 more than the gamecube had.

that's like 15 more than the ps4 and ps5 combined

Not sure why the ps3 is getting off easy here. It's got like 3 exclusives that are worth while.

3 exclusives? That's more than the switch!

this and the last generation of gaming have just been recycling the 6th and 7th gen.

PS3 had a lot of weird niche Japanese games which add up so it gets a pass

what i thought it looked like when i had long hair as a teenager

bottom

what i actually looked like (a retard)

I want a port of Chaos Legion. I cant run it on PC anymore

Wait till you see the FF8/9 backgrounds now

I just finished DMC1-4 in a marathon has DMC5s DT always drained so slow? It feels weird

Name 20 good games on any other console

Don't forget about VP silmeria

I'm pretty sure the majority of HD collection issues have been fixed with fan patches.

they need to redo dialogue in alot of these games to being it up to speed with the current game culture sphere though and that can be alot of work or even impossible with some games

or you can stop being an adhd retard

buy console version of HD remaster

stuck with the shitty changes

buy PC version of HD remaster

someone makes a mod that fixes all of the issues

I just emulate it.

The last time I played the dmc series I shook and trembled the whole way through at the lack of bipoc and lgbtq+ folks.

PS2 emulation is still stuck in a dark age

Latest nightly versions of PCSX2 are pretty good. I haven't had any issues with the games I've wanted to play, even when upscaling the resolution and stuff like that.

DMC1 on PCSX2 with the resolution increased has pretty much zero issues and is better than any remastered version Capcom put out.

NOW YOU'VE REALLY CROSSED THE LINE

i have never had any problems with ps2 emulation

hello saar

Not him, but I had problems with snake eater. Is it fixed? I know valkyrie profile 2 recently went from unplayable to having no real issues.

Not him, but I had problems with snake eater

that has a perfect pc port.

Graphical tricks breaking when upscaled isn't necessarily the emulator's fault. The PS2 was a piece of shit hardware-wise and relied heavily on post-processing trickery to add visual effects that only really work at the PS2's native resolution. Gamecube and Xbox had shaders and didn't use the same types of trickery.

PS2s are still out there for cheap and ODEs are getting easier by the year. I bet in a couple years you'll be able to simply launch disc images from an SD card from most PS2 models.

I've heard it all before. Multiple times over the years. Any time I go and try out the "latest version that fixes everything bro!" I find out that decade old issues are still around.

what was the deal with this fag and his motivation? did they fuck up the translation this badly, or are the japs this bad with dialogue?

He wanted power. Vergil is pretty one dimensional, he wants power and sees nothing else as worthwhile. Its why Dante beats him at the end of 3, because Dante fights through the tower and earns power as well as learning important lessons about justice, duty, family.

buy a fuckload of games

re-buy them years later in a format where you don't get to ever own them

aren't you glad.........

i know youre benng facetious because this problem isnt just limited to the devil may cry series and youre obviously well aware of that

I didn't say it fixes everything, I said it's better and I personally haven't had any issues. It's not perfect but far from being in a "dark age".

DMC is just annoying to play. Getting attacked from all angles with the shitty camera and the controls tied to the camera's direction is so bad, I just want the parry and camera control from Rising so badly.

so Dante had more sources of motivations, why does Vergi keep asking him about them like a crazy person?

Because they're twins but very different. Same blood, same abilities, same defining trauma but radically different lives and success.

The people who did the HD version need to fix it rather than leave it broken.

HD Dante

Kek

Simpsons Hit n Run

There's a PC port

They still haven't fully fixed FFX

Sad part is, PS2 emulation is still stuck in a dark age

thats just completely untrue
what is wrong with you

this is just laziness

MGS3 has very few issues.

>>perfect

It's dogshit.

Man, I miss my ps2. FUCK YOU HURRICANE SANDY.

Pirated the HD version of DMC1 so I could finally finish it after first playing it 20 years ago and the port was unbearable bad. No matter how many mods I used, shit was constantly running at 2x speed
Since the port is more confirmed to be dogshit , how is it on PCSX2?

radiata stories
rogue galaxy
berserk
dirge of cerberus
star ocean 3
most ports have been bad too, love my pcsx2

why lie about fixes
