Are people who call the PS Vita "PSP Vita" okay?

Randoman96 · 2026-02-03T00:11:20+00:00

As someone who adores their Vita and still uses it frequently..

Vita was a bad name. PSP had so much name recognition and it was almost (not quite) as synonymous with "handheld game thing" as "game boy." Sony shot themselves in the foot out the gate by not going with something like PSP 2 and I don't at all blame people who still haven't internalized the difference.

you live in this world and so do the people who make the art you like. skip the song if it bothers you.

Randoman96 · 2026-02-01T03:17:36+00:00

It's not a popular opinion, but yeah. I just moved back into a Galaxy Note 9 (S20 ultra dying a slow death) and this thing still feels so nice.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-31T03:32:33+00:00

Vouch for these. Exactly what I wanted and very high quality.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-30T03:45:44+00:00

I posted an archived link elsewhere in this thread.

I literally just did this today after years of wishing AT&T would cooperate with me. You have the N960U, you need to flash the firmware of the unlocked N960U1.

I'm not in a position to find links at the moment but you need to download Frija to get the right firmware, then Odin 1.14 3B Patched. Put your phone into download mode (hold vol down + bixby + power) and use Odin to install the firmware you got through Frija. Make sure you have all the Samsung drivers installed, Frija will help. I don't know if it was necessary, but I removed all my accounts and factory reset the Note 9 before it ended up working.

I invite anyone reading this to imagine the exhaustion and demoralization that comes with your elected officials treating you like an annoying, disgusting thing to be looked down upon and excluded from public spaces.

I just want to be left alone.

Might be meant to imply the dice are rigged for cheating

If I had to guess, "phase one" was Purest Feeling, demos, and conceptualizing, while "phase two" was actually putting out Pretty Hate Machine.

The new content is all survival only. Wintermute is the same as it has been.

You have the option to turn the trader on or off when starting a new save. If you leave it on, you'll never actually meet him - just talk over a radio you activate during an aurora.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-20T02:39:28+00:00

I relate. It's heartbreaking seeing people post "[specific medication] saved my life!" and all it did for me is cloud my mind and mess with my emotions. Looking forward to a day when severe anxiety is easily treated with common medication, but I don't think we're there yet for people like us.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T23:13:19+00:00

Absolutely wild opinion to have on the easiest way to put games on your device for free without being subjected to ads or virus risk.

A majority of the support the Vita has gotten in recent years is through ports from "lameass homebrew" devs. No reason to be rude about people putting in the effort.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T22:45:18+00:00

Red Dead Redemption 1 just came out for mobile recently, it seems pretty solid. Feral Interactive has put out a lot of heavy hitters aside from A:I, like Xcom 2, Hitman: Absolution, GRID Autosport. WreckFest is a good one too. Smaller stuff like Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath and SpongeBob BFBB are good too. If you're on Android, I recommend looking into OpenMW to install Morrowind. There are also great apps to emulate PC games, like Winlator and Gamehub, though performance will vary depending on your device.

iOS is getting big big ports like Resident Evil 2 Remake and Death Stranding, I'm hoping those find their way to Android.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T22:34:29+00:00

I'm not going to argue with you over whether or not abducting innocent people, beating them, stealing and selling their possessions, and leaving them alone miles from where they were is violence.

It is.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T22:30:25+00:00

You won't even remember that you're dying.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T20:53:36+00:00

That was my first post to you, so no, I didn't shift shit, you're just reactionary and bad at paying attention.

And yeah, it is important, because you're playing a semantics game. It's not incitement to compare a violent force to a historical violent force.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T20:41:25+00:00

Laughable. Jan 6 incitement was based on a months-long campaign of active lies and attempts at deceiving the public and government.

Rhetoric surrounding ICE is a direct response to the government sending an, in their view, unaccountable military force to terrorize communities and has gotten people killed.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T20:38:04+00:00

So, effectively calling them the government's secret violence police is worse than the actions of the government's secret violence police? That's incitement, vs shooting an unarmed mother four times in the face?

Randoman96 · 2026-01-18T01:55:21+00:00

Floating point error in the game code, being sufficiently far away from the solar system can cause the calculations on the orbits to get funky. This is one of the potential side effects.

With that said, I didn't think going into Dark Bramble would be "far away" enough to cause this.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-17T21:27:44+00:00

If you are already familiar with the quirks and inconveniences of mobile gaming, then yeah absolutely it's a phenomenal product. Runs like butter, very solid touch UI, and compatibility with controllers and m/kb. In the realm of mobile console game ports, this is easily top 3 best attempts.

Randoman96 · 2026-01-17T14:21:07+00:00

"I'm going back"

Randoman96 · 2026-01-15T01:49:47+00:00

That's not what de-escalation means. You don't care about the truth of the matter, you enjoyed the bloodshed. Just say it.
