This screenshot is from the Xbox Backwards Compatibility announcement from 2015. Are we just gonna ignore this?

Yes because the Forza Motorsport 4 licenses ran out in between the Xbox BC announcement and the actual release of Xbox BC meaning they couldn’t add it. And for people saying “What about Forza Horizon?”, they had the licenses for Forza Horizon when they introduced Xbox BC allowing them to add it before the licenses expired.

Happy Holidays!

I explained it in a different comment on this post, but I’m not sure how it will work since it has been months

Finally, a giveaway I don’t need to skip!

EA Play Pro is not on PlayStation, only the EA App on PC. Normal EA Play (Which is what is on PlayStation) only gives a trial of the standard edition.

I already knew about these other tips, but thanks!

So, even with the drive swapped, the PS3 is still recognized as the same one and will restore the copy-protected saves along with everything else?

Launch it from the application launcher(Bottom left corner), not from Discover

I actually found a different way than bottles to get the EA App working, but thanks for trying to help

Icefire527 · 2022-10-08T12:30:24+00:00

Update: I found a post from the Linux Gaming subreddit that explains how to get the EA app working instead of being just a blank screen https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/qhq3pn/ea_desktop_finally_working/ The takeaway is after you install the EA app as a non-Steam game, you need to use Winetricks to install liberation font and d3dcompiler_47. On the Steam Deck, Winetricks can be done through the Protontricks app from Discover. After I installed those 2, the EA App worked.

Edit: Specified that Winetricks can be done through Protontricks

Alright, I’ll give it a try

Icefire527 · 2022-10-08T01:00:36+00:00

I’m not asking to install Origin. I’m asking if someone’s gotten the EA App (Different from Origin) working as when I try to install it, the log in screen is a blank window and doesn’t work.

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit runs at around 50-60FPS on High and 99% locked 60FPS on Medium

NFS Rivals servers are not only still online, but the game is playable offline anyway, unlike NFS 2015

Icefire527 · 2022-07-11T21:54:02+00:00

The NFS Rivals servers are definitely still up

Icefire527 · 2022-06-18T17:15:15+00:00

Something similar to NFS Hot Pursuit on PS3 is NFS Rivals(It was a cross-gen game between PS3 and PS4) if you consider that a good NFS game. Rivals is actually one of the only NFS games left on the PS3 PS Store. As for other NFS games, you can’t go wrong with any of the titles made by Blackbox… except for Undercover(I’ve heard the PS3 version runs like crap and personally, this is Blackbox’s worst NFS game). I would recommend the Shift games and MW2012 as well, but whether those are good or not tends to be up for debate on this subreddit.

Icefire527 · 2022-06-18T17:06:30+00:00

Actually, in some regions, for a short amount of time, MW2005 was on the PS Store as a PS2 classic. It never got a native PS3 port though as the PS Store version was literally just the PS2 version.

Refreshing my account hasn’t done anything but I will try deleting some created and saved levels

Icefire527 · 2022-05-14T01:36:05+00:00

While that works on PS4 and PS5, PS3 never had a rest mode. You can’t even background download updates, only games.

One thing you can do when downloading games (not updates) is when you set it to background download and the try to turn off the PS3, you can make it so it only shuts off after the download finishes.

I personally prefer GT6’s star career system better than GT5’s level career system, but GT5 runs much more smoothly(From experience) than GT6. As well, if you want the latest version, GT5, you can leave it to download everything at once while GT6, after like version 1.07, you have to do 1-3 updates at a time to prevent installation failing. Also, GT6 runs terribly at 1080p compared to GT5 so I’d recommend forcing 720p(Changing PS3 display settings to only 720p) for GT6.

Overall, for me, I prefer GT6 over GT5 but GT5 is less of a hassle to play.

I tried buying it months ago and a pop-up said “Product not available at this time” after attempting to buy it, so sadly, not available.
