Along with the original Xbox it's still probably my fav' console. You didn't have to install games, never had to be updated |
Yarp. No vibration. That came in with PS2 and XBOX as "standard", then the PS3 decided people didn't want vibrating things they wanted to be able to tilt the controller ... I can only remember 2 games where the tilt function could be used, Between 2 Souls and that free one that came out not long after launch, flying plane type things shooting other people down ...
Last night I formatted my old PS3 hard drive (to put in PS2) and WinHIIP'd some games onto it and tested it. Ho-lee- shit it works. So I started on "Call of Duty - Finest Hour". Just need a proper dualshock 2, the old controllers I have seem bust, perhaps they need opening up and checking but the working turbo controller thing feels awful.
I dredge my Dreamcast out every few years but now I'm not a student I don't have homework so I can spend time playing some games. It seems going back 2/2.5 generations allows you to be not bothered about the graphics and enjoy it and be able to mod consoles easily to be a thieving pirate to access games. Playing PS3 is a bit too new to forgive, I should probably look to finding ways to pirate on that soon, so I can play some different games. I've been picking the odd one up here and there for a quid a go. Balls to TV, I'd rather plug an old console in! ____________________ I'm Sam; Northern, Ginger, Lover

Cool UM100, I also have one. Not bad for a cheap plastic distortion pedal. Very versatile distortion, a lot of EQ settings.
Well, these days you may just go full digital with a cheap multi-fx/DSP box and simulate whatever distortion/OD pedal/amp you want and not many would notice the difference. But, when I got the UM100, nothing like it was avalible. To stay on topic, with the GCB95 the UM100 worked very well. Also, I've always wanted to buy a Big Muff, because my childhood guitar hero, Paul Gilbert, had one, but I never got it.
I could buy one today, but I kind of lost the interest. I already sold some pedals. I still have the UM100, DD6 and GCB95, but I mostly use the Boss micro BR, for a quick play. |
I love that piece of plastic crap and still haven't found a HM pedal that does what the UM100 does.
Big muffs...well which Big Muff did Gilbert use is the question. That many iterations of the thing.
Like how I listen to music is like how I make it...Bit of old and bit of new.
Still prefer using pedals and amp..still like that a lot.
....which is a nice segue to what arrived today.

Apparently there was a legal dispute. I think GTA V had sixaxis controls, I definitely used them on a pals PS4 when on the bike (it was rather good), can't remember if I did on the PS3. A pal stole my copy so I can't check

https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=4540537#4540537 - I'm surprised giving Sony's history they've not stopped the exploit yet. Generally I don't think 3D games age well, unless there's a novelty factor, like a few years back when they released GTA 3 for Android/iOS
Edit: same with Revolt for Android/iOS (played that a lot on the Dreamcast). |
