Well, well, look who’s having a birthday bash – the PlayStation 2, hitting the ripe old age of 24! Can you believe it’s been two dozen years since that sleek black wonder brought us hours of joy and button-mashing madness? From GTA heists to mythical adventures in God of War, the PS2 was the real MVP.

Let’s not forget the memory card drama and the struggles of connecting it to an ancient CRT TV. Ah, the good ol’ days! Here’s a virtual toast to the OG console that paved the way for gaming greatness. Happy 24th, PlayStation 2!

So I’ve been looking on where I can get PS3 fats restored. Anyone have any recommendations for this? Having as many options to look into will help.

I’d recommend checking out Video Game 911 for your PS3 revival quest. I’ve used them before to fix up my old Xbox, and they did a solid job. Plus, with over 27 years in the game, they know their stuff.

I’ll check them out. Thank you.

To be fair, Astro Bot looks sick. Sony have been sitting on a cash cow with him for a while now and I’m surprised a full-on non VR Astro Bot hasn’t been released already.

The story trailer for Concord looked pretty dope for the 5 minutes we saw of it, and then they presented it as another PvP live service hero shooter. Never has my interest in a game dropped so rapidly lmao.

Oh I didn’t actually realise that’s why people were posting lots of pics of him all of a sudden. Yeah I think he’s grand, nice to see a mascot like character from Sony again after what feels like 2 generations of them having just like…dudes. Lol

I thought Sackboy was Sony´s mascot since LBP1. Guess the rag got threwn out for a shiny robot.

Not impressed with the SOP. Like Astro is cool, but developers seem to be out of inspiration. I mean I haven´t seen anything for a while now that made me think, “Wow, this I NEED to play!”

Not sure I’d agree it’s a cash cow waiting to happen. Platformers aren’t the big draw or sellers they often were in the days of the PS1. That being said, when I read the suggestion from an insider that this was coming I was so excited because Astro’s Playroom was genuinely the best platformer I have played probably since the likes of the PS2 Ratchet and Clank games even though it was effectively a decent-sized tech demo. I actually started replaying it last week with Thomas and he’s loving it and so am I so this was easily a day one buy for me. But I don’t really know if I think it’s going to do so good. R&C Rift Apart was so disappointing, it sold OK all things considered but also cost at least 6x more than any other R&C game.

That state of play was 30 minutes of my life I’m not getting back.

WHERE IS PHANTOM BLADE ZERO

We’re finally, kind of, not really, sort of getting themes.

I´ve actually still got in on my PS4 background. I´ve seen more people on twitter discuss it now with the new update you can customize more on PS5.

No PS5 Pro drama here? :sweat_smile: I can agree somehow when people say “everybody” buys $1000 phones and now complain about the Pro price. But it´s actually insane when you count the disc drive. Well over €900 with disc drive and vertical stand (that came free with the base PS5).

No drama… but I really really want that 30th Anniversary edition, looks beautiful.

Same :pensive: Just can´t spend that now. Or this year. Definitely getting the dual sense.

My brother in Christ I feel you on this one - for that reason, I think I’ll just find a custom plate retailer which does nice classic grey looks for the PS5.

Also:

I’m hoping I get my leaked Soul Reaver 1+2 remaster here lol.

It’s been teased already! Think it’s just a PS Store release.

Also I think I just really want that 30th anniversary release mostly for the USB cable. But if I got the chance to get it I can’t say I’d say no, a pro with GTAVI on the horizon could be really useful.
