hilarious

Meme material lol

They kinda cute together tho O_O

i nearly lost all of my coffee on my new monitor xD

That Audi guy is fuckin hilarious 😆

I laughed so hard at this too. Sleep overs and all night gaming session was it when I was younger. Good times

grown ass men having pLaYdAtEs & sLeEpOvErS

Came here to comment the same. Sat here laughing my ass off trying not to wake up my wife. DF sometimes has moments like that and they just get you because they're just so unexpected. John is a funny guy (and/or whoever actually edited the video, which I guess may have also been John) Also +1 for memories of sleepovers and all night gaming sessions when I was a kid.

The look said: "That was between us, you were not supposed to talk about it".

Speaking of visiting colleagues any news yet from Fonzie about Paprium?

sleepovers are the best

Haha, That was cute. We just had one, mostly unplanned, this week-end with a couple of friends but we spent our time between arcade emulation and co-op games on steam. I think next time i'll take out the old stuff and see what would be nice for a 4 person experience. I'm mostly thinking about Dreamcast, GC and maybe PS2/Xbox if I find any good 4 player games.

You mean like GoW or RDR2? Games are still fun to play without complicated set ups and wires everywhere.

@@thefisherman0074 you don't get it man

I remember those days lol I love it I use to play command and conquer red alert retaliation on PS1 and it was a pain to find that damn link cable in 2004 and that game was still full price (49.99) at that time as well and yes I was still playing hardcore in 2004 I love that system

So what people don't understand is how new and rare these experiences were. The concept of 3d gaming was very new and exciting. There were a handful of rudimentary 3d games on the SNES and Genesis. Once the ps1 and Saturn hit, it was a revolution. It was a sign of a change, of a new era. It was a defining era in gaming. Sure the PC crowd had 3d games prior but this was the first time 3d was the target for the masses. The gulf between affordability for console and PC was bigger back then. Also online play was nearly non existent. Having to find friends, before cellphones and web groups, with the same hardware and software was challenging if you wanted to play a link cable game. Next one of you would have to have either and extra tv or a portable one. The odds were not with you but if you did make the connection it was magical. It was glorious. Best day of your life.

talk about rose-tinted glasses

I agree, an OSSC comparison would be really useful.

I’m waiting on that too

I use an OSSC and a Packapunch SCART cable for my PS1. It looks beautiful enough for me. Having a GSCARTSW and an OSSC for your old consoles with quality SCART cables is more than good enough. I even have my Atari Jaguar looking amazing through SCART.

They will never do that. Not only will it cost a lot of money, but not a lot of people still have PS1 or PS2 games. It wouldn't make sense to release a system for, what is, a minority. It's way more convenient and profitable to just release some games on the PSN every now and then

surprised they don't do that and sell it for 1200 bucks or something, just call it, "the PlayStation"

PS5!!!!!!

Sony did with the launch PS3, played just about every PS1 and PS2 game. That's when they learned there wasn't a large enough market of users who cared to spend extra to have that ability.

They tried with the ps3, I even had one but not many survived and it didn't go well at all. And I think because of that they won't attempt it again.

Heh heh, '69', heh heh

I wish someone could convert the PS1 version to English.

NANI?!!

he getting that man on man ACTION. I LOVE IT.

To get the full affect 1:40

P J I’m pretty sure John is straight? Didn’t he have kids?

@@XgamerdaveX Having kids doesn't automatically make you straight. Could have been a confusing period for the lad!

XgamerdaveX yes, he’s just aware and onboard with the ongoing meme.

Came for this, nice zoom in John, subtle and necessary

For full affect 1:40

yeah what was that lmao

lol It sounds like a dirty word.

aFuturnaught I feel a strange tickling sensation in my dongle.. You're right!

Excuse me. What about "Shrek"

I suppose if they called it a weener it wouldn't seem quite right :)

Moist

I have a PS1 in the drawer with GT2 and Tony Hawks and Metal Gear Solid. Tony Hawks is still playable i guess. It's cool seeing what digital foundry come up with though all the same even if i would never really bother with this console anymore. I just keep it because it might be worth money one day.

Loool he also looks like the pizza guy from the tenacious D movie

He looks a bit like Dreamcastguy

he looks like he never comes outside of his house or near a gym

you can emulated ps1 and ps2... which made it so pointless... and yeah again.. i do't play those game anymore since it too outdated... i still play some ps3 and psp some of the time...

It’s been in development for a long while now. I wonder how long it takes to develop these things.

@@campkira not everyone likes emulators, also good games doesn't get outdated.

SamuraiVader he announced the PS2Digital (originally called PS2HDMI) in December of 2018 and stopped in September of 2019, because he was having issues getting certain things to work on PS2Digital. He than started working on PS1Digital so he could use what he learned from it to make the PS2D the best it could possibly be and learn how to fix the issues he was having and know more about the hardware. Now it’s August and the PS1D should be officially coming out in September I believe. So development could be about a year. So it could be a couple months for the PS2D after the PS1D comes out. I remember in March him saying the PS1D was close to coming out and now its coming out in September i think. I also remember him saying the PS2D was close a few months before he stopped developing it. Shows how rocky the development can be. I think it’ll be a few months before it PS2D comes out maybe even in December for the anniversary of his announcement. Could be longer 🤷🏼‍♀️ i just can’t wait to play it

original hardware is more reliable and games always work compared to emulation not all games run perfect in emulators you always have to adjust the settings and bios, all games won’t work the same. kinda tedious. also not everyone can afford a pc to emulate and some people just prefer the original hardware look and feel games of games and the experience. plugging in your ps2 or ps1 controller is pretty inconvenient to. the ps1digital gives people and original hardware enthusiasts more of a reason to not use emulators cause now they can play their games in higher quality on modern HDTVs. I always think this plays some games in 60fps cause it interpolaces the footage which doubles the frame rate and resolution double of the game is 240i and 480i

I wanna know if the PSDigital is better than that or not

I think MLIG should do a side by side between PSDigital and PSTV with Sharpscale.

Why don't people just use a ps3?

With Sharpscale your also have the advantage of PSP games.

@@redsnake9 adds lag and blurriness. But I use the PS3 with an LCD because I don't care that much.

@Deathtrooper204 no lol ps3 is cheaper, you also get a PS3, also most people already have a PS3

@Deathtrooper204 all of them can play ps1 games, its only the launch models that can play PS2 as well

@WD Forty What country are you in? It's about twice the price for the PS2 compatible model over here in the UK.

You also don't *need* to do this mod. PS1 has native RGB and can be pushed through an OSSC or Framemeister to your flat panel.

@@Grief111 Both of those alternatives cost more than ths cord. Not an option for most people.

Yep 3D platform games like Spyro as well and other shooters like Einhander.

I just wish this thing could get every PS1 game running at 60fps. Going back to lets say Ridge Racer & Battle Arena Toshinden can be pretty rough! Hysterical just how impressive those games were at launch back in 95 even when stacked against the Saturn, only to be an un-timeless eye sore in 2024. We've come so far. Once you get to Gamecube territory, depending, that's when 3D/polygon based titles start to sort of hold up.

Emulation: exists

@@pgr3290 Emulation is NOT Game Preservation. It's just a way of approximating how the game played vs. playing the actual game the way it was meant to be played on its original hardware using the original peripherals. This is important from a technical and artistic stand point because we're losing games that are just 20 years old. They're more or less gone, but things like this allow us to preserve those games on a 1:1 scale versus sloppy emulation.

@@PLAYER_42069 Then wouldn't one just play on a CRT from a time when the consoles were in its heyday?

@@PLAYER_42069 As soon as you digitise the output of a console only designed and equipped with analogue out then essentially you're modifying the way the games were authentically played and viewed back in the day. I understand the point you made but it's moot even if you're a hardliner preservationist. For the vast majority emulation and enhancement is the best way to play old titles.

Ricky H If one can still be found in good condition that isn’t overpriced. That and CRTs are bulky units, so there would be a heavy shipping charge applied to the buyer if the seller sells it online or in the other case the buyer would need a vehicle large enough to support the amount of room needed to fit one for transport.

@@ebridgewater thanks for pointing that out!

@UCmkA4l2I-LpxXWMEAgDLO9w I already did that, but thanks for pointing that out!

Song name?

@@TooFurious4 It's the opening FMV music from Macross VFX-2 for the PS1 (I think)

@@TooFurious4 It's "Get Free", artist name is what the original comment said

Voultar just posted a video of him installing this and the newest cd drive sd card mod

khhnator I have watched that video 5 times now 😅

@@retro_boy_advance lol

What times were they at? I agree if they put them in the banner it would make it so much easier!

@@shaunstephen9761 The game at 3:30 which looks like Gradius Gaiden but seems to be a different game, and first person mecha (I think?) games at 16:40 and 18:15

18:15 is Kileak:the DNA imperative, 16:40 is Epedemic (sequel to Kileak I think?) 3:30 is Salamander 2

@@shaunstephen9761 Thank you dude, you've saved my sanity

I remember seeing graphical glitches in Ace Combat 3 and Driver 2 too when being played on PS3

Or X-Files...PS1 and CRT all the way

These comments are brilliant. Everyone I read I just see John's face again.

@@Tyranniod it was the perfect way to film that little section haha. Obviously his buddy was just making some silly reference to kids having sleepovers. But the quick Zoom made it hilarious

Yeah would've been great to see some Wip3out or 2097/xl footage. Psygnosis were kings of the ps1 era. Ditto Vagrant Story from SS
