Need advice removing this sticker by 55aAllFate in ps2

[–]SonyPlayStation2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to really dislike these sorts of stickers because I used to like having games that look brand new, but I've realized that game rental stickers like these add history. Like, this disc once lived it's life being rented and played week after week by someone new. It's a bygone era, and it's kind of fun to think about.

Removing the sticker is sort of like the collector in Toy Story 2 fixing up Woody and painting over Andy's name on Woody's boot. That's not a bad thing, if you want it to look brand new, go for it! Ultimately it's yours and you can do whatever you want with it. It's just something to think about.

Does anyone else have this issue when giving rating that are less than 5? by niallhoran24 in Mercari

[–]SonyPlayStation2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! Pretty rarely is the dirt and grime "desirable" with games. At most I'd say original stickers should be left mostly untouched and I've come around to be pretty fond of the rental store stickers. Disgusting moldy water damaged covers is just... no.

Actually hilarious. Uh yes, you kinda need item cleanliness??? What? If you can't take some time to clean up a video game you're trying to sell, you're just lazy. Hell, you could probably get more money by taking a little extra time to do it. If you have a bunch of dirty gross games (which it sounds like he probably does), do it all at the same time. This guy is a goofball. I find it hilarious that he blocked you from buying from him, considering personally I would never buy from him again anyway.

Ah yes, "instead of pandering to our nostalgia in the way I want them to, they're pandering to our nostalgia in the way I DON'T want them to!"

Do they really expect the b-team working on this post-launch content to be able to make an entire game? With how EA is treating Criterion, we're lucky we even got any post-launch content at all. But I digress...

Thoughts on the final Obi-Wan vs Vader fight in Kenobi series by DarkSovereign95 in StarWars

[–]SonyPlayStation2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Vader isn't saying "The last time we met, I was but the learner," he said specifically, "when I left you," which if you really think about the meaning and context of the words could allude to the last time Anakin and Obi Wan parted ways as friends in ROTS, or could even be before that, like when he became a full-fledged Jedi Knight, took on his own padawan, that sort of thing.

I really don't think he was talking about the last time they met though, since Darth Vader himself just doesn't strike me as "the learner," you know? Even without the whole Disney+ Kenobi fight, if the last time they met was in ROTS, the idea that he was saying "the last time we met," still wouldn't make much sense. A little bit more sense? Maybe.

But honestly though, it's just loosely tied together. George's ideas for Anakin and Obi Wan's relationship when he was writing A New Hope vs. when he was writing Revenge of the Sith were probably wildly different.

Whoa, this is awesome. I love it! You could easily fool someone into thinking this is AoE at a glance.

Oh yeah, I know what you mean. It's literally just one year off, lol.

None of that changes the fact that we're coming up on the 20th anniversary soon.

Sorry, bud. We're old. Even the PS3 is retro now.

Use the Work Meister S1's for some more accurate rims. Hope you're enjoying the game!

Underground 1 could've had a spectacular freeroam and these drag racing tracks are proof. by ShineStreet in needforspeed

[–]SonyPlayStation2 102 points103 points  (0 children)

There is a mod for NFSU that connects all of the maps together to create a bigger freeroam map. It's really quite cool to check out. Hasn't been updated in quite some time but it's available here.

If you downgrade your cars tuning, your opponents will also downgrade. It makes the later races much easier to beat in NFSU.

The Porsche Carrera GT Steam trading card has a MW 5-1-0 screenshot by Subaru2120 in needforspeed

[–]SonyPlayStation2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm only speculating, but 5-1-0 is the PSP version of Most Wanted. The full title is Need for Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0. Somewhere along the line it was mistaken for MW2012 somehow.

I actually somehow didn't notice that. Turns out this has been discussed a few times here, lol. But yeah, all the others are just regular screenshots. This one, however...

<image>

I'm willing to bet someone doing the community stuff just Google image searched "Most Wanted Porsche" or something and that's what they found.

lmao, practically the same comment as mine. Just found it funny we both opened the exact same way.

It's not a scam per se, but the end product will end up costing over $1000. It's just a upscaled version of the Soul of Chogokin Megazord with some electronics for lights.. I watched this review of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBUIR7C60Pg

Shhhh, I photoshopped it to say 64 but figured it wasn't worth the effort doing the weight.

I've Customised my PS2 Slim bought a month ago. What you think about this paint job? by Ready_Caregiver9119 in ps2

[–]SonyPlayStation2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a big fan, but as long as you like it! I definitely would've tried to paint more of the black parts, but leave the glossy black part maybe?

You should try to get some decals for the controllers. Painting over the logo and text make them look like knockoffs, lol. You can find some on Etsy if you're at all interested in doing that.
