for real though im just bitter that i've never played crash 2, it was the only one my dad didn't buy on psx D:

Ahhh you see I think they they lean too hard into the vehicle gimmick in 3 so it is not as fresh. Plus it never really changed things like 1 to 2 did. 3 was just a bit 'more' 2.

It was good. You should play it now! you can get it on PSstore if you are in the UK as ps classics :D I own all three that way!

You have to do it on a PS3. I also have Fear Effect 1 and 2, MGS1, RE1,2,3 and something else.

I have yet to play Fear Effect 1 and 2, but I successfully played all the other PSX classics I own!

Also just found out the reason Blasphemous was kicking me so much is because I had missed a few upgrades and gone the wrong way! Hooray :D I was not instinctively going the correct path!

Blasphemous is very good but very difficult. That snowy climb with the wind and the enemies who zoom at you and can only be hit on the lower half, but can go through the terrain...man. They are some pests!

That's the spot that stopped my play. Real unhappy with that spot.

AstroBot owns and I hope that Astro's Playroom gets a full-scale sequel. It's a surprisingly great little platformer with lots of room to expand and develop. Little guy deserves to break free from the "we just use him for tech demo games" niche.

If Sony re-re-makes TLOU1 but doesn't port Astro Bot to PSVR2 then everyone over there officially has rocks for brains.

What's so interesting about astrobot for me is that it's not the typical first person view VR implementation, the game isn't designed that VR would even be a requirement, but it is absolutely better in VR.

Sonic 3D Blast was a Genesis game and a small technical marvel, I wouldn't be embarrassed about it at all.

Someone ITT was talking about playing AC:Valhalla in like full discovery mode where icons wouldn't show up unless you found them first. Is that a pretty straightforward way to play in the settings, or are there downsides to playing this way?

I think the game actually gives you the choice early on, and you can always change it in settings later. I don't think there are any downsides, other than possibly missing out on some side quests and whatnot. But I think that would be expected when playing in this mode.
