How you tweak it for your personal viewing is up to you. You already can run it through AI tools to add detail or smooth effects or even turn it into a cartoon if you want to.
Will take some time, will use a lot of energy, will require a decent card or a lot of credits but this can be done today.
Personally I don't think anything will improve it, as I don't care for it already. Just had to say it as your claim it's the best trilogy ever is subjective. Much like the results of processing it with AI.
I know you wanted to end, but I really wanted to say this:
Our energy would be better spent to try and get some legal rights for license purchases that replace a sale of a physical disc.
It seems to me the issue isn't exclusive to Sony. It is a digital problem for all media types, games included. I would imagine you might agree with that.
You can still buy them online, so no difference really. Just not on disc, so nothing is stopping people from buying new ones.
“you don’t own the hardware” that’s nonsense, it is the only thing in the console gaming equation that you do own
Let me repeat: you do NOT own the hardware. I mean you own a piece of plastic. You can use it as a boat anchor anytime you want I guess. That's it.
Sony has been forcing console upgrades since the ps3 when you buy a new disc. Sony has also revoked the ability to use discs they sold with the console, also during the ps3 era.
Given that none of this is new, they knew this going in on the ps5. They knew third party publishing on disc was not allowed. They willingly entered this eco system, so I really don't understand the surprise at all.
By the way: Sony isn't ending physical disc manufacture on new games until 2028. Older games, released prior to 2028 are allowed reprints even after that. This should give people time to decide if they want to continue down this road now.
It is the level of anger that throws me off. So fucking what? Sony is a shit company with a constant anti consumer history. Quit bitching about it and quit supporting it.
Your arguments are not unsound, but yelling at sony isn't how they are going to fix it. Stop buying their products will. Most people aren't going to care, they are used to downloading games and updates already. People who love merch buy the fan box sets. Sony knows people will still buy their products.
It affects the existing products by rendering them worthless if the customer were only buying physical games.
They already have the games they bought, so they aren't worthless. They just don't get to buy new ones on disc. Sony already has been selling digital for years.
Simply buy no more games. Everything you already have works the same as it did before.
I never understood this "sell a console later" concept, so I guess that is on me. But that also is not Sony's problem. They are under no obligation to keep a console worth anything, and frankly their business model would suggest its in their best interest to make you buy the next model anyways.
I think everything you are describing is why they never should have bought a console in the first place: you don't own the hardware. Sony already forces updates for new games and has the ability to kill the old games, whether you have the plastic disc or not. People never seemed to learn that this is normal for Sony. Don't buy their products.
I don't think most people know they are in salt. Or that they were built in 1977 and only designed to last about 25 years.
Or more importantly, and to what you said, they were designed for only about 6 draw downs. We are way past that. They were never meant to be used and filled over and over again.
Simpsons hit and run. I am playing ps2 on the deck but wonder if I should try and get the modded version for pc going instead. Any tips? I have the rars the would let you play from a USB on windows....
What? They are fine, how do they feel dated?
Honestly, I don't even know what dated means.
The admin is fine.
Everyone else is doomed.

How does it affect existing products?
Also, nothing new with Sony by the way.
I forgot about that! Yet another good reason.
I think you missed the point....
I liked it too, but I liked it even better after the simple mod to make it first person. Which I don't think a PS5 could go.
I need to get them to give me more plastic so I can throw more money at them!
not really no. Sorry. At least no different than they ever had.
Push back? Why? Grow up and just don't buy their stuff. How hard is this?
I learned my lesson with the PS3, what took you so long?
You just don't buy the product?
It is so weird, these people are arguing over the ability to keep a piece of plastic so they can then throw more money at Sony. For entertainment.

Tanks?
It isn't tanks, its in salt caverns. That were never built to last this long. That were never built to be depleted this low.

Are people really not getting the "I'm tied up right now" joke? The gag (literally: as in whats covering her face) is a bit too much though.
That isn't a very common phrase anymore is it? They just took it to the extreme, and when coupled with the phrase that everyone used to use: joke.
Street complete is such a great app. Highly recommended.
Use it instead of a game to waste time it's that easy to use.
I remember getting pacman running, with the most interesting part was using the tapes save function as a way to make the sounds.
