  • I get that - it was the same thing for me. It’s barely noticeable, though, unless you’re very familiar with the novel and the Disney adaptation. It’s a very tasteful homage to the novel by Carlo Collodi, but you don’t need to have read the novel to appreciate the game for what it is. It’s essentially Bloodborne 2 for what it’s worth. Truly amazing game.

    Might just be a tad biased :D But if you keep an open mind about it and that’s all that’s keeping you from giving it a try, I promise you - you won’t regret trying it. There should still be a demo for the game if you’re up for it. :)

    It’s so sad to see. I’ve spent way more time listening to the soundtrack than playing, I’ve listened to it working out, I’ve listened to it at work, I listen to it when commuting - his work is just amazing. All that lost because a higher-up fucked up and didn’t care enough to mend the relationship. Whilst straight up lying about the events of what really happened on reddit, of all places.





  • I hear you. Took me some time get it working myself, but there’s also a plug-and-play solution as well. Got it for like 20€ off AliExpress for convenience’s sake, so I don’t have to connect a PC to run the jailbreak every time.

    Ooh, cool! I see the appeal, but apart from my teen years, I haven’t been much of a PC gamer. Or rather I never bought any games on Steam which I could run on a SD. You probably have a big enough library? And will you be getting the dock too?


  • PSP was my first ('98 here), the 360 my second, a 3DS my third. I probably spent thousand of hours on my PSP, so I’d go for PSP probably. Jailbroke my childhood PSP a year ago or so and enjoyed playing a bunch of games I couldn’t get. Also jailbroke my 3DS and gave it to my partner as a birthday gift so she could play all the Layton games which she grew up with.

    A couple years ago, my obsession was probably the GBA, though. Growing up, we couldn’t really afford any consoles, so my only experiences with Pokemon and stuff was via emulators on my PC. Had a period of them where I’d buy old GBAs, shell-swap them, restore old games and their batteries and fun stuff like that. Haven’t touched the couple I have for some time now, sadly


  • Base PS4 or Pro? If the former, a Pro could be a pretty good upgrade. Also not super expensive compared to the base model.

    A PS5 is, of course, also nice if your budget allows it. Been happy with mine since its release. Feels like a real step-up compared to the entire PS4 line, even if you’re only interested in PS4 games.

    Also, check the firmware of your PS4 in case you haven’t updated it recently. You could potentially jailbreak it and unlock heaps more potential. Emulation and stuff, for example.
