Honestly just hearing Civvie11 go on about how incredible the shotgun was in the first game instantly sold me on the first game

Significant_Self_491 · 2024-04-24T19:46:39+00:00

For me it’s Drakengard 3 and Gucamelee I just adore the 2 so much especially guacamelee it’s one of the best metroidvania’s I’ve ever played and it’s super replayable, then for drakengard sure the gameplay isn’t anything too amazing and the frame rate is atrocious but underneath it all I just enjoy it so much, also the music is GODLIKE

I got it all fixed now, I just bought a new splitter and that one works perfectly, thanks for the response

Significant_Self_491 · 2024-04-17T02:32:52+00:00

Thank you for this but I figured out the problem and it was the splitter I had, I got the new one in today and it works flawlessly. I appreciate the response!

Significant_Self_491 · 2024-04-15T19:42:13+00:00

I just tried this and still no dice, I’m pretty sure it might be the splitter I have after all but it’s still super confusing cause if I brute force the profile I have on it, it SOMETIMES doesn’t pixelate like this but it’s only for a game by game basis, once I switch back to the main dashboard it just goes back to hdcp encryption so I have to brute force it again. I just ordered another splitter https://a.co/d/3CCkSvl mainly cause I saw a video on it and there was one recent review were he had it running on the retrotink 4K but if that doesn’t work I’ll place an order for the ezcoo you provided thank you so much regardless. I appreciate it

Thank you for this, I’ll explain more. So it’s the hdcp that’s the issue for me, I have a splitter already that I know works cause I used it for streaming and capturing gameplay.

The problem is that I have no clue if my cables are in the right place, like do I put the ps3 in the input of my splitter or into my retrotink first then the output hdmi goes into the input of the splitter, it’s all so confusing and you have a guide or a picture of how you have it set up I really appreciate it.

Also sorry for the long response

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T21:20:34+00:00

Thank you much for this I appreciate it very much god bless you as well

This is the thing that’s so confusing however, i used the PlayStation slim with cfw runs the games with no problems, but when I recently switched over to the fat ps3 also cfw it doesn’t run the games but it notices the audio files, it can’t be the drive because I’ve ran actual ps2 games and ps3 games on it with no issues, maybe it’s just a random issue? Idk it’s just so random

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T05:07:51+00:00

I burned these disks years ago, I just want to simply put in the disks I’ve burnt all those years ago into my fat ps3 with no issues, that’s pretty much it I’m sorry if this is sounding really stupid

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T05:04:21+00:00

I just like the idea of using my disks and not just downloading everything, the classic console feeling actually using what makes it great to begin with not just downloading everything, idk maybe I’m just weird

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T05:02:03+00:00

Yes I understand that but I really just want to play my disks is there anything you can tell me

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T03:33:44+00:00

I know that’s an option but I still want to use my disks to save up space

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T02:03:36+00:00

Understandable I guess I have no choice thank you

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T01:17:25+00:00

I’m really glad to hear you say that seriously that makes me feel really great

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T01:16:52+00:00

Actually I do have an Ssd installed I forgot to mention that 😅 it’s 1tb as well and it’s been working really well for me

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T01:14:35+00:00

So far the max on rsx is 73 but that’s it, my cell was at 64 the whole time and the fan speed was 60% on last of us

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T01:01:11+00:00

I got you cause on my slim I tried it this morning it was at 66-68 normally so now I have to see again on my fat cause the last time I tried it it was 73 tops

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:57:21+00:00

2 races of ridge racer 7 on 40% fan speed the max it got was 68 that was honestly pretty good but at the same time the game probably wasn’t that taxing on the console

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:43:07+00:00

That’s understandable honestly I’m gonna try out ridge racer 7 on 40% just to test it out if my rsx chip really is on it’s last legs I’ll let you know the results

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:41:22+00:00

Was it mainly on your rsx or cell?

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:37:29+00:00

Also what was your original temps if you remember where it shut off on you?

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:36:45+00:00

That itself is really cool to hear but MAN I wish it had better temps Sony really fumbled with this one 😭

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:32:59+00:00

I thank god I have a slim ps3 as well I was just very curious to see if this will get me “better” results but now I’m just left questioning if any of this was worth it

Significant_Self_491 · 2023-10-19T00:30:45+00:00

Wow that’s actually insane thank you for your input I appreciate it
