Comment on What Are Ya'll Playing?
LazyPotato@lemmy.zip 3 weeks agoYeah, I also had my phone emulation phase but it kinda sucked having to lug around a controller, searching for it in my bag, turning on, connecting via BT - that took a lot of time and eventually I got kinda lazy and stopped doing it. Plus the distractions of my phone (nothing sucks more than getting a message from boss in the middle of the game) and fast draining of charge. But you do you man, I’m happy that it’s working for you! Kinda even jealous for ps2, my miyoo can only emulate anything up to ps1. And shooters are not great on it. Tried Quake 2, playable but not super comfy. By the way, reason like “I want it” is valid too, miyoos are really cheap, I remember thinking to myself “worth a shot, as long as I won’t fall into a rabbit hole of modding it or collecting dozens of other emulators” - and I didn’t. Thx for answering btw, it’s great seeing folks with different experience. What are your favorite games apart from Max Payne?

You’re right. “I want it” is completely valid. If I had a bit more disposable income to play with I think I’d probably go ahead and bite the bullet.
I wouldn’t call Max Payne one of my “favorite” games, more that its a really good game that I’m currently discovering just how good it is. My favorite games are Cyberpunk 2077… Probably have like 500 hours in that. Had it since launch. By far my favorite “world” I’ve ever been immersed in. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been living rent-free in my head for months. That was a masterpiece. I spend 75% of my gaming time playing race sims, though. I’ve been going hard on Le Mans Ultimate lately. It’s so good! I want a race sim rig so bad. It’s the one thing I’ve wanted for years that I haven’t been able to get a chance to get. Hard to drop 2g’s on a peripheral.
Beyond that, more retro… Donkey Kong Country, Diddy Kong Racing, The Typing of the Dead (God I love this one. So glad RetroArch exists otherwise I would have never got to experience it)
