Because I am a weirdy weird I played through The Last of Us on PS3, beating it on Hard yesterday. I got all the collectibles (yes I know the Platinum is no longer attainable on PS3). While it has more jank than the later PS4 version, I gotta say it holds up quite well on PS3. Framerate gets iffy when there's rain and spotlights but overall it's fairly solid. It's a bit weird because you need to get "money" to unlock concept art etc. (I think it's just all auto-unlocked on PS4) so there's an extra subset of achievements that don't necessarily match up with the game's trophies, mostly for hitting certain milestones in progress to collectibles and also killing enemies a certain way (e.g. I think killing a certain number of enemies with melee weapons). While it was the digital version (which took around 5 hours to download and install, fortunately without the double-space requirement of other games thanks to its own downloader/installer), I think there were data streaming issues at times that broke A.I. and things like that, possibly because my hard drive was extremely full and the data likely quite fragmented.

Can you even use the PS3 (actual) saves on PC (emulator?) I thought PCSX3 or whatever had a different save format than the PS3's?

Decided to pickup 40k Space Marine for ps3 since Space Marine 2 is supposed to come out some time this year. Game is still good af. Weirdly the parched version of the game has an inconsistent framerate and weird stuttering through cutscenes. I deleted the patch file and it seems to be working fine now. Just seems weird that the patch somehow makes the game run worse. I tried rebuilding the database and restoring files through safe mode and it did nothing to help the video issues. On a super slim if that matters somehow.

There are actually a small number of games with a reputation for having issues when patched but not unpatched. I think the XCOM game is another to look out for with this.

Yeah. Thankfully I was just at the intro portion so it wasn't too big of a deal. I think the game will try to auto update overnight at some point. I should prob turn that feature off.

Goddammit. The plat trophy requires multiplayer bullshit. That was way too common back in the ps3 days and just feels like a way to pad the trophy list

Hey I got an old PAL PS3 fat which is inconveniently region locked on the PS1/2 side. I want to tear it down and make it like the ultimate PS3 or something with custom firmware. Anybody got a cheatsheet on something like this?

So I was digging through the ps+ premium service and decided, hey I should replay the Strong Bad games and finally finish up all their trophies. Got four episodes down, will do the last tomorrow. I checked on it and it turns out it's been 12 years since I started playing them. PS3 will never die, even if I can only do streaming with them. (I actually do have a ps3 still hooked up, this is just pretty convenient and I can play it on my ps4 which is in my office)

I making this year some kind of list of games to beat on PC, PS4 and Xbox and was thinking about giving a try some PS3 exclusives I have yet to play like Resistance 2 and 3, and Killzone 2 and 3. I liked Resistance 1 even with the jank, are the other two games better?

Killzone 2 is decent, I'm playing through it at the moment. It still looks amazing. Only downside is the input lag is pretty bad. 3 feels way better to play.

Is there any PS3 exclusive game that is better played unpatched? Thinking the Resistance and Killzone games. Darksiders II on PS3 patched looks like it caused a new wave of problems.

One of the newer XCOMs, I think Enemy Within, is more stable on 1.00 than 1.01.

Thanks! I read that they hosed up Killzone 3 in a patch but only multiplayer iirc. So I guess I'm fine as I don't think I'll play a X-Com game on an older console (I own the physical copy on Xbox360).

Killzone 3 won’t work patched if you’ve upgraded your PS3 hard drive, for ages I couldn’t figure out the issue until I googled it. Works fine straight from the disk

Works fine straight from the disk Yeah I upgraded to a 1Tb drive before doing the whole CFW thing, if my ISO from my disk doesn't work (need to check if I patched the game or not) I'll just play from the physical disk then. I hope between this week and the next I can kick out Resistance 2 and Killzone 2 from my backlog.

I've been on the PS3 a bit recently after learning that a slim PS3 can use a custom firmware to inject PS2 disc images into the PS Classics launcher thing and run emulated versions that way. Some work and some don't. I'm having a problem that I can't figure out. I have a PS3 eye camera which I've used with a head tracker on my PC. I plugged it into my PS3 and it's like the exposure is set super low. If I turn on the lights I get an incredibly dim picture that almost looks black and white. There's not a dial on the camera to adjust lighting and the options in the PS3 menu only change the capture frame rate from 50hz to 60hz. If I go into a game that calibrates a Move Controller it fails over and over. Any idea what I can do to get the camera working normally? edit: Ahh, I think the ps eye camera that I got with the IR Tracker was modded so that it has an easier time only picking up the IR signals and not anything else in the room. That makes sense and I don't know why I didn't think of that. Jolo fucked around with this message at 02:27 on Feb 19, 2024 |
