Oh god, id never remember this before, really, turning the brightness down?

What a meh article.

h311rais3r4445d ago

I like my brightness up -.- Sony should have inveted In a better battery

darthv724445d ago

dont leave it plugged in all the time. It is better to power cycle the battery than keep it plugged in. Charge it up then play it dead then charge it up...lather rinse repeat.

You want the battery to drain because it will condition the cells to retain power at different levels of use.

suicidalblues4445d ago

Not true. Li-Ion batteries don't have that issue, that's for the old ni-cad batteries. I think it was called memory retention or something.

Thank you for those tips, I will keep in mind when I get my Vita

TrendyGamers4445d ago

No problem, I found the fact that the Bluetooth was on right out of the box was weird and that a lot of people wouldn't turn it off.

Spitfire_Riggz4445d ago

Yeah very helpful, it loses battery because the bluetooth is constantly searching for devices to connect with for those who dont know

idiealot4445d ago

Can you use a Bluetooth headset?

Jobesy4445d ago

Unless I missed the "Dear lugia 4000" at the start of the article, I don't think it was meant just for you. Believe it or not, a lot of people don't think of turning down the brightness on their phones to save battery life.

guitar_nerd_234445d ago

I think you've got to have way too much free time on your hands to have issues with the battery.

Today I got up walked to work. Played 30mins before my shift. Played on my tea break. Played on my lunch. Played on my tea break. Played at home.

I've still got 50% battery. (75% brightness setting)

kamanashi4445d ago

I have a tea break as well. Tea is delicious, especially earl grey with a little milk.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens5216d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK212116d ago (Edited 16d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens5215d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens5215d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani16d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum16d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman16d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim16d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

I disagree Batman
