The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

quick question for yall.....
I picked up a ps1 and hooked it up but i get no video signal.
Im using a cheap component cable that i picked up on ebay for like $3.
When i plug my PS2 using the same cable I get video signal but with some bad static lines across the screen, but works fine on another TV...
Ive also heard some TVs wont put out a signal from older consoles, not sure how true this is. Is it possible that the cable is the problem? the TV? or just a bad PS1?
 
I remember the good days of Bloodborne. I feel like I somehow beat Rom my first try.

The funniest thing was the way I got the platinum trophy, I was playing through the dungeons and solo fighting the queen of Yarnham... I had her about half way down. The game glitched out and she just disappeared and I ran around for 2-3 minutes trying to find her, then all a sudden the trophy popped

Can’t wait to run these dungeons

You'll have to use the Composite (Yellow) cable to get output from the PS1. Start with that first so that you know the PS1 is working.

Bloodborne was probably one of my favorite gaming experiences ever. I wish I could experience it for the first time again.
 
started it last week.

got to the mother****ing cleric beast.

i will own him soon enough.

a booodborne movie would be dope.

I bought it when I was playing DS3 heavy on a PSN sale for $6.99 and never touched it. I beat sh game last year sometime and have been meaning to platinum it and finish the DLC so hopping back in and actually putting on effort to learn the lore has been an amazing experience.

I hate to beat it to death but what a clever well thought out game.
 
Nuka World DLC for Fallout 4 is kind of a let down.
I been looking at Fallout on my dashboard for a while now but I honestly don’t know how to play these games. I always apply stats in the wrong categories and end up stuck somewhere. JRPGs are much more simplistic :lol:

Those dungeons are OP. I can’t even imagine some of those bosses on NG+ :lol:
 
Not going to watch the trailer but I’m glad that GoW has a release date now. Day 1 for me.

Yea it can be confusing. Safest way to play is to focus on intelligence and strength, while making sure any speech, lock-pick, or hacking skills are focused on early. Then find a weapon type you like and focus your skill tree around that.

Unless you are picking terrible skills that dont help your play style at all, or you are playing on a high difficulty, they really arent too important.

I was the same way, you kind of have to will yourself to start. What you're feeling with Fallout 4 is my exact same sentiment with Witcher 3. I have the complete version staring at me every time I log on. :lol::smh:

People of PlayStation the world over, God of War is launching April 20, 2018.

I would love to write a long blog post here but, apparently, I have a game to get done by 4/20 so I gotta get back to work as soon as possible.





God of War | Gallery

First, let me say that this is my favorite release day of my entire career. If I live to be 100, I do not think I will be able to top this release day.

There has been a long journey just to reach this point, so it’s a little bittersweet to think that we are only a few months away from that journey finally coming to an end. While I am sad, I am also excited because it means everyone will get their hands on this crazy adventure we have been crafting for nearly five years!

Speaking of trailers. Yeah, I just lost interest finding an elegant way to get here from the last paragraph so I just went for it. That is just how I roll. I really am ecstatic that I can finally show you this beautiful trailer we have been cooking up in the creative kitchens of Santa Monica Studio headquarters. It will give you more insight on why Kratos and Atreus are going on their journey as well as provide a glimpse at some new bits of action.


I love this trailer. After I saw it, I pre-ordered the game.

So, April 20, 2018…mark the date on your calendar, people. Clear that schedule, tell your significant other they are wonderful, because that is always a nice thing to do, and then wonder what you will do with all that free time you have now that you don’t need to keep asking me when the release date is.

Thank you everyone for your continued support of our game-making addiction. I will do my best to keep sharing information as we head towards launch.

…But wait, there’s more! I’m proud to share our limited Collector’s Editions and Digital Deluxe Edition, whose every component is connected back to the Norse universe and story of our game.

Pre-Order Offer


I should first mention, if you pre-order any edition (or already did) at a supporting retailer, you’ll acquire these three legendary shield skins (which you’ll need internet connectivity to access!) for Kratos to bash and defend against all manner of creatures we created in the brutal Norse wilds.


If you pre-order any edition at GameStop or EB Games, you’ll also receive the Luck of Ages XP Talisman which improvers the wearer’s luck, providing:

  • Increase XP gain
  • Increase Hacksilver gain
  • Increase the ability to trigger Perks


Collector’s Edition | $129.99 USD/$169.99 CAD

The 9’’ statue was crafted by our team in collaboration with the incredible folks at Gentle Giant. The cloth map is a unique companion to your journey, and an art piece on its own. The Huldra Bros carvings pack as much detail as their personas do in game. Just a few of the highlights, not to mention the digital items as well!



Stone Mason Edition | $149.99 USD/$199.99 CAD (EB Games Exclusive in Canada)

Available in the US and Canada only, this edition includes everything in the Collector’s Edition along with four very distinct, rare items directly from the game. You might recognize Atreus’ wooden Horse and Troll carvings from our E3 2016 debut. They complete the collection with the Huldra Bros, btw. The Stone Mason Ring is a finely crafted piece of jewelry, whose story we won’t spoil. The talking Mimir Head keychain may be your personal favorite after you interact with him in game. Massive credit to Gentle Giant capturing the exquisite detail of these!



Digital Deluxe Edition | $69.99USD/$89.99 CAD

If digital only is king for you, we didn’t forget. Adorn the legendary Death’s Vow Armor Set to increase your strength, and honor the solemn promise that sends Kratos and Atreus on their journey through the Norse wilds of Midgard and beyond. The digital comic book from Dark Horse, Issue #0 starts to unearth the story of Kratos before his quest with Atreus begins. Not to mention both the digital comic and mini art book will come with exclusive creator commentary tracks.

Finally, available to addresses in the US and Canada only, pre-order this Digital Deluxe beauty to get a sweet, exclusive, shiny, limited-run God of War physical pin.



Mark your calendars for God of War’s release on April 20! If you’re not convinced yet, watch that trailer one more time or follow us on Facebook and Twitter for more development updates!

You’re going to convince me to give it another go. I feel like I’d actually enjoy those Bethesda games if I can actually make some progress :lol:

TW3 took me 3 attempts but I finally got through it and enjoyed it. Biggest con for me was the combat felt sluggish.
