With how well Metal Gear Solid 2/3 and the Ratchet & Clank Collection run on the Vita, there's no excuse for why God of War Collection and Jak & Daxter Collection run as poorly as they do.

And wait, Max Payne? ....I don't think you can play that on the Vita, unless you're talking about Remote Play, which shouldn't count.

The dude has included games you need to run on a hacked vita. Pretty dumb.

MadLad1085d ago

To be fair, proper support for the Vita didn't last long.
It's been looked at as a great emulation machine longer than a traditional handheld.

Oh yikes... I didn't notice that. Weird...

When the PSN was announced to be shutting down on PS3, Vita, and PSP, I did look into hacking my Vita. But now that it's back (at least for the former and latter), I gave up on it. I don't want to hack it unless I deem it absolutely necessary, because I only have one Vita and I can't afford a second one if something goes wrong.

I did hack the heck out of my PSP, though! ...technically it was already hacked, but I didn't know that at the time when I got it from Gamestop. Only found it out 2 years later when I was looking for its firmware version and noticed a custom one!

Okay, anyways, tangent over. Have a good day :)

Vita forever! Vita is life. :)

Didn't know the PS Vita could run PS2 games. That's one less excuse for Sony not making it possible on the PS3 (except for a tiny handful of titles), PS4 (same), and PS5...

I actually played MGS 2 & 3 for the first time on Vita and was blown away with how good the ports were. Luckily I played the God of War and Jak & Daxter collections on PS3, so any issues were avoided. Sly 1 was fun enough on Vita; I've heard 2 and 3 are better games. Recently, I picked up the Ratchet & Clank Collection on Vita (despite playing through on PS3 already), and it's also a solid port. The camera is noticeably sluggish at first, since I think it's running at 30 fps instead of 60 fps, but after subsequent play sessions you don't even notice it anymore. FFX is also a fantastic port well worth your time (though I'm currently stuck on a boss in a mountain pass). The Bard's Tale also works really well on the Vita, and I hope more people give it a chance.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

I wish they’d remake warfighter

Strictly for the campaign

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.

8 Years Later, It's About Time Sony Revives The Rest Of Ratchet And Clank

Hanzala from eXputer: "On this joyous 8th anniversary of the Ratchet and Clank reboot, it's about time Sony considers reviving the originals to complete the saga."

It's not the ideal situation but Sony does offer them on ps plus. I to would just like a big ass compilation on doscto though

purple1014d ago

Insomniac roadmap leaked a while ago and they are making another, they’re doing the best they can and these games, especially the last two, are master pieces
