They also pulled a really cool hack on Jak and Dexter. They were able to hack into the PS1 chip hidden away in the PS2 for backwards compatibility to get some extra processing power!

vrighter,

source? I’d really like to read about this

pastel_de_airfryer,

I read about it over a decade ago. Something about the game being difficult to emulate because of it. Now I can’t find anything :(

TwilightVulpine,

Their engineers were crazy good to pull off this sort of stuff.

Another interesting fact concerning the ps1 chip, Sony used it as an Io controller so backwards compatibility was essentially built in to the design of the ps2

PlayStation 2 software is distributed on CD-ROM and DVD-ROM. In addition, the console can play audio CDs and DVD movies, and is backwards compatible with original PlayStation games. This is accomplished through the inclusion of the original PlayStation’s CPU which also serves as the PS2’s I/O processor, clocked at 36.864 MHz in PS2 mode.

Already saw this a year or two ago, it’s a great watch and would highly recommend anyone who hasn’t seen it yet does watch it

This made Naughty Dog the pioneers of the streaming levels, I guess.

That was a fun watch. Hard to believe naughty dog started with 5 people and a million dollars worth of hardware

Really hope to see a jailbreak for it soon. The hardware is beautifully made and feels like a real PS5 controller. It’s just the software is awfully limiting.

    China is by far the biggest gaming market, almost 50% of all steam accounts are Chinese. There’s more money to be made by appealing to Chinese tastes than any other market in the world. That’s my guess anyway. This game is Chinese though, so they could just be like, appealing to their own market through crossovers, if that’s what you mean when mentioning the other games.

    fushuan,

    Dunno, the story of sun wukong has been widely adapted over all of media in diverse ways. Dragon ball & songoku is the most known one maybe, but there’s tons of wukong adaptations in games, the trend is not recent at all. It’s a champion in League too. He exist in Dota2…

    Cool character with a cool story.

    SandLight,

    Tbf, I’d hardly call the Warframe reference recent. Didn’t he come out like 5 years ago?

    It looks great. Souls fans are going to be in heaven.

    I’m not thrilled seeing so many “no-portal” surfaces in this trailer. Part of what made the original so fun was that you could solve the chambers in novel and unexpected ways, then two took some of that freedom away to have gels make sense. Now we’re at a mod that seems to enforce an incredibly linear path to how puzzles can be solved. Disappointing.

    Two top level comments and both are deeply stupid, well done!

    Anyway, this looks awesome!

    Yoddel_Hickory,

    Yours is not at the top, so no longer true

    Wow that looks amazing. I tried portal reloaded which is another fan made mode and it was great. Probably better than the original 2 games.

    Really hating these no context video drops.

    A quick Google search.

    Portal: Revolution is a fan-made mod for Portal 2 which plays before the events of Portal 2 in the dead and decaying Aperture facility. MECHANICS.

    Telorand, do gaming w I made a boat elevator for Minecraft Bedrock 1.20

    Nice job! I always like neat mechanisms. Only elevator I ever built was with water and soul sand.

    That’s faster, easier and more efficient than this boat elevator! During the development process of the elevator, I did have a block switcher at the bottom which would swap a stone block for soul sand when the elevator was activated and the boat would rise very quickly (I didn’t have to put a delay in like with this one.) It would also descend more quickly because the dispensers were faster. It was VERY noisy, though, because when you’re on top of a bubble column it constantly makes splash noises

    Telorand,

    You can make a contained column of water with trap doors on their side (need two high) which prevents the water from escaping, soul sand underneath, and no boat needed. To come down, I made an empty column beside it with a water block at the bottom to stop fall damage.

    Not as fancy as a mechanized dual-purpose elevator, but it got the job done, and it was quick and quiet.
