- Comment on What's *your* favorite way to play old games? 1 week ago:
I play on my Linux Desktop or SteamDeck, upscaled to my monitors native resolution, 60fps+ patches if available/needed at all.
I mainly play PS2/3 era stuff with some earlier games now and then. I try to go out of my play what’s considered “the best” version of any given game and emulate that is possible. But ideally I’d go for the native PC port if it’s not terrible.
For me I care more about playing good games rather than trying to capture nostalgia. Most older titles I play nowadays I don’t even have any nostalgia for since it’s my first time playing a lot them.

I should seek them out next time I’m in London.
Only arcade I had growing up in the North was at the back of a casino. I put all my Nans slot winnings into Fast and Furious or Time Crisis.
The house always finds a way to win…
- Comment on PSP games that are enjoyable without the nostalgia-factor 1 week ago:
I sadly didn’t play much LCS back then (despite loving GTA 3) but VCS was my PSPs main game when I was in high school.

If you’re a fan of the 3D era Grand Theft Auto games but never played the Stories games, do yourself a favour.
They’re also playable on PS2 but both versions have trade offs even if you’re emulating.
The PSP versions is a lot smoother to emulate and can be modded to support the right analog stick and 60fps but the render distance is a lot worse.
The PS2 versions doesn’t seem to emulate as well can keep a stable 30fps but the 60fps patch available on PCSX2 just makes my fps drop below 30 more times than not. even after overclocking the EE Cycle Rate. like suggested.
PS2 version of LCS in particular also has some heavy handed colour filtering which some people say fits the “vibe” better. But I never liked it.
