Seriously, consoles don't need to be super tiny. Making the Xbox One a bit bigger in order to include a normal sized heat sink wasn't a bad idea. Heat is what kills electronics.

I never see some of my favorite Ubisoft flops in these threads, and I can't find them on Youtube either. Especially since I forgot the year they were in.

There are some big tickets like Mr. Caffeine and girlwood(before she milked it), but I'm talking about that shitty laser tag game they ran through a silent and confused audience with. And the weird cube furniture with nothing but awkward reactions from every stage guest. Someone besides me remembers those right?

KH 2.5 shows the problem with if you don't have install, the load times can be massive. The installation is mainly there to improve loading/processing in-game.

I was shocked at first, but back then it really wasn't a guaranteed bullet-list item. The 360 needed an adaptor, and iirc the Wii couldn't connect to WPA2(I could be wrong there). Or WPA if WPA2 wasn't established yet. And I don't think household wifi itself was as commonplace as it was after 2008.

They're pretty much ticking time bombs. My 60gb died five years ago despite me babying it. My friend's 80gb finally bit the dust as well last year. I don't know anyone personally that has a working fat PS3 anymore.

If you're looking for PS2 games just get a fat ps2, a network adapter, old compatible HDD and softmod/load it with games. If not that just get one of the slim PS3s. I have one and it has been trucking along with zero issues since it was purchased. I have no idea of the quality of those super slims though but they felt cheap as fuck when I messed with one.
>>
>>375888382
Kutaragi is a genius... as long you tell him EXACTLY what you want.
Ask him for a sound chip, and he will deliver you the best goddamned sound chip ever made.
Ask him for a 3D capable console? will take several years to something even come close to the performance of it.

Now when you say to him "just to what you want and name it playstation", he WILL fuck up.

This disappoints me. I've got a PS2 in storage but I hate taking the thing out whenever I want to play something like SMT because my interest in games I've beaten ebbs and flows. Sometimes it's days straight of playing till I beat it again, sometimes I just pick it up for a couple of hours and then set it down for weeks.

Maybe I'll just buy a slim PS3. I really do still need to work on the huge backlog I had for it before my old one died.
