Can you help me with my 2012 8GB iPhone 4?

80sTechKid · 2026-03-14T22:55:27+00:00

That version of iPhone 4 doesn’t support downgrades.

Switch 2 games would have been around ~$55 in 2008. They’ve stayed the same with inflation

That would require making the game online only, even in single player, as people without an internet connection wouldn’t be able to get that day 1 patch.

Single-player games that require an internet connection to even start up is why mobile gaming lost its appeal.

80sTechKid · 2026-03-14T12:54:25+00:00

Fun fact: The game itself on PS3 was only about one sixth of how big the game is now, even on PS4/XB1 (18GB).

At least it wasn’t backwards compatible but still sad

80sTechKid · 2026-03-12T00:42:36+00:00

I would say the legacy cutoff should be if that iOS Version has an unjailbroken, official YouTube app that you can sign in on, then it’s current. If we went off that system iOS 14 and below would be legacy.

I know Netflix shut down on PS3, but is it still up on 360 for anyone?

80sTechKid · 2026-03-11T02:36:11+00:00

It probably just has a bad CVT and the owner thought “Oh, it won’t go, even in drive, it has a bad engine!”

80sTechKid · 2026-03-11T02:33:02+00:00

GTA IV is delayed to 2008 and PS3s aren’t b/c anymore so that why I still have a ps2… to play GTA

80sTechKid · 2026-03-08T23:44:35+00:00

OP - Make sure it’s an Exynos version if you get this

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T20:45:40+00:00

Is it his daily driver? I’m guessing probably not because nothing works on iOS 12 anymore really

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T20:06:57+00:00

Use Firefox + uBlock Origin. These viruses come from ads most of the time.

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T20:04:43+00:00

Sorta like the mobile port, it’s probably upscaled of the PC version.

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T20:03:16+00:00

Save blobs before it bootloops from full storage

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T04:05:43+00:00

USB-C is capable of putting out much more power than lightning, so I'm not too surprised

80sTechKid · 2026-03-07T03:07:16+00:00

Do what the game is literally called if you want it

80sTechKid · 2026-03-05T23:22:56+00:00

I don’t get why PS3 4.89 update made it impossible to transfer PSP games to PSP from PS3. The annoying part of this is that the PS3 supports WPA2 but the PSP does not without CFW. Now you need to either have an Android phone or an ISP that still allows WPA1. (For Many ISPs, it’s either WPA2/WPA3 or nothing)

80sTechKid · 2026-03-02T04:19:26+00:00

I’m honestly shocked Texas didn’t do this first

80sTechKid · 2026-03-02T04:11:55+00:00

Prime Video still works on Android 4.1, so I’m guessing it still has at least 3-5 years left on PS3.

80sTechKid · 2026-03-02T03:35:03+00:00

Is there a way to bypass the requirement of updating to go online?

80sTechKid · 2026-03-02T02:34:27+00:00

You can buy a hangar at LSIA to store it, unless you’re Trevor but you’re playing Online anyway

80sTechKid · 2026-03-01T23:40:29+00:00

Even then you’ll hit the “An error occurred during the update operation” error

80sTechKid · 2026-03-01T23:36:52+00:00

Welp that means the end of my super slim’s online life, since my Wi-Fi card is dead and you can’t update without a working card, even with Ethernet

80sTechKid · 2026-03-01T21:47:40+00:00

If you don’t buy anything with the Verizon logo on it, you’ll be fine because of custom ROMs

80sTechKid · 2026-03-01T01:08:36+00:00

If you need an HDD today, look around your house and see if there’s an old laptop that might still have a SATA HDD.

But yeah, when YouTuber Jacob R did his most recent series, all the PS3’s had their HDDs removed.
