[QUOTE="KleinesSinchen, post: 10104905, member: 445180"] For me it is generally "and" not "or". Emulation [I]and[/I] real hardware. Original optical drive [I]and[/I] other ways of game loading. CRT [I]and[/I] newer TV. No chance. Sadly. Mostly using the Asus drive at 16x. Never had any problems. In practice I prefer slow burning as well. I just doubt it has any noticeable effect nowadays… or better say:[I] As much as I tried, I didn't find any problems or differences comparing 16x with 4x.[/I] My Plextor Premium is a little damaged (was happy to even get one for beating SecuROM New without paying hundreds of €€€). Same problem with many other drives that old. A new (bought January) external/slim DVD multi writer was a positive surprise in reading capabilities but generally performs poorer when writing than the big Asus. No luck on trying regular patterns (SafeDisc 2 and higher "weak sectors") on CD-RW, unusable burn result for GameCube DVD-R backups. Not yet tried PS1. There is a noticeable difference on worn drives, agreed. When you get the chance to buy 650MB/74min CDs cheap, you should. Local thrift store, about 10€ and the owner was happy to get rid of the shelf warmers. Those Memorex perform nicely in PS1. [SPOILER] [IMG]https://gbatemp.net/attachments/viele_cd-r-jpg.331868/[/IMG] [/SPOILER] LittleSinchen is just lazy. At some point the drive in the SCPH-1002 will get a refurbishment according to your guide. Background information from an official service manual for a CD-RW drive: Reflectivity (R[sub]top[/sub]) CD-ROM 70%, CD-R 65%, CD-RW 15% ~ 25% No wonder old drives not designed for them never detect CD-RW. ========= All in all it is a trial and error to find out what your consoles like. New blank CDs and DVDs are dirt cheap, so a bit of experimenting doesn't drain your wallet. [/QUOTE]

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
