I dunno about "no monthly fee"

I keep getting some letters about "rent" and "utilities"
You only really get those if you take the "renting a house" route, the first one doesn't apply if you take the "buy a house" route and you don't get both if you go the "homeless" route

What about the "squatters" route, or the "secretly living in someones walls" route?

    The PS2 was quite a good console for its time. Imagine how many people in Spain are still using one LOL.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Today's technology makes anything from last gen look like shit

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @K3Nv2, Exactly. Take note of the Switch, for example. Its underpowered compared to how older tech was capable of doing just about anything.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Wii u was shit fight me

    @SylverReZ, 1) I never entered 4chan 2) I have good memories with my PS2 even though most of the games i had were scratched beyond being bootable

    @K3Nv2, Not gonna lie, about half of its game library was shovelware like its counterpart, the Wii.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, and the other half were just 1st party games

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, The Wii U was essentially an early Switch, before the Switch was a thing.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They already had the technology but the price to performance wasn't there

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, and before third party companies were able to make games for the newest nintendo console

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Older systems I love some of the games but without filters and enhanced graphics they are difficult to enjoy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Especially the PS1....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    That thing needs all the bandaids lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think my favorite PS1 enhancement is sub pixel precision, helps get rid of some of those wobbly polygons lol

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Psionic Roshambo, By default, the polygons are filtered with differing to simulate depth, which doesn't make them clearer.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Which GPU was hot in the ps1 era psi besides all of them

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There are ways to disable this by creating cheat codes, but this requires knowledge of the PS1 hardware.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I miss the old game shark books you could just go to Walmart and buy now it's instant ban or some punishefor using cheats

    @SylverReZ, I have physical copies of both Pokémon diamond and Pokémon black, gonna post them on my profile

    @Psionic Roshambo, the filters i hate the most are the bilinear ones
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @K3Nv2, when the PS1 was out I had the PS1 the N64 and on PC I had the Voodoo 2 and glide looked soooo nice at the time 🥰
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Biliniar filters are OK but brz is better I like SuperEagle but out of all of them xbrz is probably the most computationaly expensive
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Emulation is the way to go for so many reasons NES get rid of flicker by turning off the sprite per line limit. Cheats? Ken Batocera is your friend almost every console has cheats in it
