By data Go To PostAre people who consider ps1 a goat console weabs? Because when I look at the best of ps1 lists it's almost all jrpgsTekken 3, Soul Reaver, Tomb Raider, MGS, RE1&2, Gran Turismo 1&2, Castlevania:SotN, THPS2, Silent Hill, Wipeout, Medal of Honour, Syphon Filter, Crash Bandicoot (shut it Dipro)
It was a great console that specialised in JRPGs
By data Go To PostAre people who consider ps1 a goat console weabs? Because when I look at the best of ps1 lists it's almost all jrpgsNah. PS1 was the zeitgeist in Europe with little to none contribution from JRPGs. Had a ton of rad games in about every category. Sports, racing, fighting, adventure etc. Think Tekken, Destruction Derby, Wipeout, Gran Turismo, Formula 1 97, Driver, MGS, Crash Bandicoot, Tomb Raider, Ridge Racer, and I could go on forever. Cool af console. Games aged badly tho. I think it's the console with the best games I have no desire to play again, if that makes sense.
Wii sports is the best game on the wii and one of the best of that generation.

Could be an age range thing but I had a n64 and my brother had a ps1. All I remember playing on ps1 was twisted metal, thps, resident evil and crash . Whenever friends would come over, we would always play the n64 without fail. It was like the ps1 didn't even exist outside of that one time we got really into twisted metal 2
Tekken 2 was cool but I just remember it not being as cool as street fighter 2 or mk 2 and then the dreamcast came out with better fighting games without all the bullshit loading times. Also I played a ton of fighters megamix on the Saturn
damn did you guys own all the consoles growing up or something
it's a toss up between PS1 and PS2 for best console for me.
edit: nah, it's absolutely PS2.

By Yurtlicious Go To Postdamn did you guys own all the consoles growing up or somethingLived with 2 older brothers. We made sure we got all the consoles via birthdays and Christmas's. Almost exclusively rented games though. Didn't own a lot.

Cool af console. Games aged badly tho. I think it's the console with the best games I have no desire to play again, if that makes sense.3D games were just a huge leap for everyone (but also one of the reasons they've aged badly). An amazing genre variety and quite a few games for grown ups.
Not to mention that the possbilities with piracy also helped quite a bit with the popularity.
Overall it was just the right product at the right time, while other companies were never really able to capture the same essence.
Think it was on the level of the SNES, but SNES games aged alot better due being 2D and that's why I rate the SNES higher than the PS1.
PS2 is unmatched though. Nothing comes close with the library it had.
I waited months until I finally got my PS2

I got one for Christmas in 2001 with Smackdown Just Bring It, GTA3 and no memory card.
To top it off, on Boxing Day one of older brother’s dropped the PS1 on the PS2 with GTA3 inside, completely fucking up the disc.
So for 6 months I played and replayed the career mode in Smackdown daily to unlock the other wrestlers.

All consoles and games i ever had were bought by me with my hard earned money. My parents would've never gifted me a video game lol.

Was playing DMC, cousin steps on controller cable, PS2 flips from cabinet onto the floor. DMC still running.
By Yurtlicious Go To PostI can't argue with thiswe need a new US presidential simulator
By Freewheelin Go To PostPS2 was the GOAT console for sure
By Freewheelin Go To PostPS2 was the GOAT console for sureprobably would rank B or C tier for me but i have to agree.
Not making a list but Wii was amazing lads. With proper contemporary graphics would have been one of the goats. So many great games.
At least what's perhaps its best game (SMG) is now available in HD on the Switch, like it was always meant to look that way. Bless up.

By bud Go To Postare we sure that's not just a controller hooked up to a vcr.Almost, it's the Philips CD-i.
I've always wondered why they don't do that already
I imagine its less complicated on consoles since its fixed specs and your own components

By Yurtlicious Go To PostI've always wondered why they don't do that alreadyIf you have sensors in the appropriate spots, know the safe operating limits of the components, and the fans are pwm fans, it has always been simple. Stupidly so. It really just comes down to how many points on your fan curve you can set. Most PC bios support up to four points while some specialized fan software on PC can support many more for even finer grained control.
I imagine its less complicated on consoles since its fixed specs and your own components
You basically plot a graph with fan speed on one axis and component temperature on the other.
My guess is that the PS5 has limited points on the fan curve so these updates use information on each game and how the component temps are for that game, and come up with an optimized fan curve for that specific game.
If their software had allowed for dozens of points instead of what I assume is just a handful, this would not be necessity as they could just set a fan speed for every 5C rise in temperature or whatever interval they want to use.
Rather sounds like - the fan will get louder along the life cycle - more stress, more dust more fan noise.
Another thing having plenty of points on the curve helps with is reducing the noise impact of fans ramping up. If you have more points, you can ramp up more slowly instead of all at once. This way, you don't get that annoying back and forth of the fan getting loud and soft every couple minutes.
By DerZuhälter Go To PostRather sounds like - the fan will get louder along the life cycle - more stress, more dust more fan noise.That has always been the case, even with previous gen consoles. They have always been based on temperature so they have always gotten louder as the cooling efficiency dropped due to dust and other factors. It's why cleaning out the dust or moving the console out of an enclosed area has resulted in consoles running quieter.
