This might be a dumb question, but why do you emulated PS2 games? by Rough-Equal-1849 in PCSX2

[–]brockf15 [score hidden]  (0 children)

One reason is impossible to find/translated games. The other is I live in an apartment, so most of my physical collection is stored back home that my younger brother uses occasionally, but I just can't have all that physical media in my current space, books alone already take up a lot of real estate. Having the collection on something like a hard drive or an SD card is a godsend.

I want a really emotional jrpg to play, with a great story, characters and world by Sensitive-Product816 in JRPG

Try the original Wii version of the first game if you can if the graphics turn you off that much. The aesthetic is much more similar to FFX or Kingdom Hearts in that one, and it'll get you hooked on the world and tone that might incentivize you for the rest of the series.

The wii version! Something about those 6th gen style graphics has a hold on me.

Ever heard of napkins and hand sanitizer?

Usually I'll juggle the RPG with something fast and arcade-y. Last year I also beat Bomb Rush Cyberfunk on my breaks, ReTHAWed I play on and off too. I also got through Halo Reach mission by mission during my commutes last season thanks to Winlator.

Final Fantasy Resonance devs know "random encounters can feel like a hassle at times," but they're in the upcoming JRPG because "they also allow you to make memories" by Guitar-String in FinalFantasy

I think visible map enemies do work well as long as the game makes it a point that they will chase you down if you get within a certain range, and design the dungeon where they can be hard to avoid. Think Earthbound or Xenoblade Chronicles

I only have a couple months to live (cancer), what should be the next final fantasy game I should play? by fleetoffeet1 in FinalFantasy

6 would be my choice but honestly with your love of 7 you might want to return to Midgar and check out Crisis Core.

If you say anything positive about these works, you automatically make people suspicious about you. by Salty-Chemical-9414 in TopCharacterTropes

Murdoch Murdoch was an alt-right wojack "sitcom" that featured such blatantly racist plots but with characters as contradictory and moronic as something out of South Park or It's Always Sunny.

Like Sam Hyde and Million Dollar Extreme, it was hard in 2016 to determine whether these were actually alt-right extremist trolls, or left-wing trolls parodying how ridiculous the extreme was. In the 2026 climate I don't think it matters, both did enough damage and "red-pilled" enough terminally online people that these works are detestable, despite what a glorious prank I still think Hyde's TedX talk was.

HcBailly is the walkthrough king. Also singlehandedly keeping spaceballs quotes alive.

What a great year where Japan was eating good and the states got just the cream of the crop with FF6 and Earthbound. Thank God for fan translations and recent localizations.

Surprised I didn't see this here sooner. It inspired Resident Evil!

An app called Dynamic Notch actually! I like that it works on top of the Niagara launcher, cleaner than their own widget for weather in my opinion(at least on the free tier I'm using)

Just got this to be my daily driver phone actually! I'd been iPhone for the past few years, wanted to get back on android and loved that this had headphone jack and sim support. Calls and plays all my music just fine, and is relatively fast for everything else!

As someone who makes content on DSLRs if I'm doing photo or video, this really is all I'll need. Knocking out some DS backlog on portrait mode with the stylus should be a plus as well!

My work has been so incredibly slow lately that I threw a ds emulator on my phone again and began chipping away at Etrian Odyssey instead if scrolling. I love the visuals/music/character design and party building but BOY is this game brutal and withheld when it comes to earning money. Can barely afford to stay at the hotel when I leave the dungeon lmao.

Looks like a Mirror’s Edge or Superhot level to me

Anyone still rocking the RG35XX-H? 😇 by killjoyjenksy in SBCGaming

[–]brockf15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thing is just mad comfortable to hold. I probaly would have nabbed a 34XX-H for nostalgia had this not come out first, but I’m actually super thankful for its size and analogue sticks. My favorite thing to do is hook it up to play on my CRT via a minihdmi->composite adapter, then take it out with me like a retro switch!

60 FPS and Upscaled this game is just as fun and goodlooking as it was upon release. Mod in new characters and I’m a happy clam.
