"The love they deserve" here means "badly presented emulation" if their past attempts are any indication

I hate you cannot have integer scaling. I want the original resolution but as big as it can be shown on my TV. I hate the weird upres where the new polygons still snap to what would've been the original pixel grid. It's bizarre. Also a proper CRT shader would be nice too.

Remaster tomba. I want ray tracing and super upscaling to 8k tomba. Give me. Now.

Although I don't think it's the visual overhaul you were expecting sadly

Didn't NerdCubed recently play this?

[–] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Idk what or who that is. But Tomba is a pretty popular PS1 side scroller.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fair enough.

NerdCubed is, or was, my favorite YouTuber. I don't like his live streams as much, but he did play Tomba in one.

Oh very nice. Tomba was a childhood favorite of mine and my cousins

Buddy baka, which boomer wrote this article?

I recently upgraded to PS Plus Premium, I hope they continue to release PS2 and PS3 games! I’ve been having a blast playing TimeSplitters. And love the added trophy support.

Not going to lie the Stream feature has been really good for me, for classics and PS5 games as well.

I aways wanted backward compatability but this subscription nonsense isnt good enough. I have pivoted to piracy completely for older games and consoles.

[–] philz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Oh yea I agree, I have all the classics (PS2, GameCube etc) loaded on my steam deck 🏴‍☠️
