I genuinely can't remember the last FIFA I played.. It's been a while! 😅
I kinda lost interest when they introduced FUT and microtransactions. It immediately felt like a greedy move from EA, and a huge grind otherwise.

I'm sure I've read somewhere that EA may potentially lose the "FIFA" name as they're not willing to pay the financial demands of UEFA for the license.

It could serve that purpose for multiplayer based trophies I would think. It would take finding the right members to do so, but I see no reason why that couldn't happen.

It'll be interesting to compare it with other websites and communities out there designed for this very purpose, if nothing else!
I might trial it sometime this week or next for trying to organise a session in Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (PS3).

Are you trying to say you own all this controllers in every console you listed out here?
I own the consoles as well as the controllers.. 😉

I had 4 controllers for the GameCube purely for Mario Kart. It's a great party game to get friends involved with, especially when the beer is flowing!

Are you still having fun with PS1?
Yes, I still have my PS1 and still have fun with it.
I know that many of the games got remastered or even reimagined for newer consoles, but I still prefer the originals.. They have a retro charm to them.

How much did you purchase the Elgato HD60 S for? With that in question, I'd say that you have already started out with your quest. It's only the courage to complete it that remains.
I originally bought a second-hand Game Capture HD for the bargain price of £51.50 including postage, but realised upon arrival that it didn't come with the proprietary PS3 component cable. They're surprisingly difficult to get hold of on their own! Knowing I'd likely have to spend upwards of another £20 for one, I returned it..
I decided to bite the bullet and buy the HD60 S new from Amazon for £129.99, and after a bit of tweaking around with my setup it works great.. 😁

I went from Sega to PlayStation, to Xbox, and back to PlayStation.
I loved the Xbox 360, but the early iterations of the console were nightmarishly unreliable. I must have got struck with RROD on no less than x4 occasions, as well as a faulty DVD drive. Then when my slim console got banned from Xbox LIVE for taking advantage of a marketplace region 'exploit' for a handful of free games, I decided that I'd had enough and decided to move back across to the PlayStation. I haven't looked back since.

I have a couple of favourites that game developers have deployed over the years.. 😈

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Glide ability removed, making the game impossible to complete.
-
Serious Sam 3
The game spawns an undefeatable red scorpion boss that chases after you.
That ought to teach those pesky pirates a lesson!

GCN: x4 Controllers (x2 cheap knock-offs)
PS1: x1 Controller
PS2: x2 Controllers
PS3: x1 Controller
PS4: x2 Controllers
PS5: x1 Controller
Wii: x1 Controller
Xbox 360: x2 ControllersIt's entirely possible that I have a few others floating about, having re-bought a couple of second-hand consoles that came with with various bits thrown in.. but these are the main controllers that I use. They're mostly original, although I have a suspicion that the PS3 controller is a fake.
-
PS2 and Xbox would be my choices, though I wonder just how much smaller they can make those consoles without a compromise on graphics, and cooling not being an issue.. A mini Xbox would be pretty sweet actually 😎
-
My backlog is some 1000+ games, all platforms considered.. I just wish I had more time to play some of them! 😅 Many AAA titles in there too.
Although I'm doing better at trying to resist buying more, lately.
-
Totally depends on my partner and their skill level.. I don't want to be carrying them through the game, but similarly I don't want to feel like I'm cheesing the difficulty by playing with someone who knows the game inside out. Unless I'm not overly keen on the game, then sign me up for extra cheese! 😆
-
I'd quite like to play the modern Mario games, as well as some of the Zelda games.. but I'm reluctant to buy a Switch, at least for the moment. I've heard great things about them, but I don't have much time to play on my PS4/PS5 as it is! 😒
-
I prefer L2/R2 as the "main" triggers (shoot, accelerate, etc), and L1/R1 as the "sub" triggers (aim, strafe, grenade).
Just what I'm used to, I guess.
-
If there are defaults (ie. Final Fantasy), I just tend to stick with those.. If there are "known" names but the game doesn't select them by default (ie. Pokémon), I generally research and select them.
I haven't played too many RPGs where I must choose my own name, thankfully 😅. I'm not really into open-world RPGs, and prefer the more traditional JRPGs.

PS2.
in Playstation
So many fantastic games on the PS2.. I spent way too many hours gaming instead of studying back in the day! 😅
I even picked up a slim PS2 again quite recently, after selling my original phat console after all these years just a few months prior. I instantly regretted it, but especially so after discovering OPL works much better over Ethernet than USB or Internal HDD.
-
I would imagine it's going to have the same music tracks missing as the PS2 ports we had too, if not more.. making this definitely not a "definitive edition".
From the screenshots I've seen, the graphics do look a lot cleaner - but it's also made them look a bit more cartoony. When they initially announced this, I was hopeful of the classics being totally re-imagined using the GTA 5 engine, but nope they're just another cash-in! 😔

Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2012) on PS3
I'm trying to go through some of my older games and get the multiplayer trophies done before the servers get shut down.. One more to go with this one!

Please Consider Disabling Your Ad Blocker to Support VGR
in Gaming Forum
Posted
I'll be honest and say that I do currently have one enabled for VGR, and unfortunately re-installed one purely because of this site and YouTube (sorry!). My work device (😆) is pretty small, and the ads here make it horrible to use - especially the video ad. I didn't realise it was capped to show only 5 times in 24 hours though.. I might try again with the blocker disabled to show support, unless you have an ad-free "premium" service as an alternative?
