The worst way to play the best games?

[MrYesterday]

On a phone with touchscreen controls.

only way to play games on touch controls is with a tablet, anything else is suffering.

Save scumming through stalker
I've done it, ruins the fun and atmosphere.

Not having neither the game nor the console and just play it in your head.
Also the PS2 versions of almost every Sonic game except for Unleashed

I actually first played it on PS2 and was blown away at the graphics. I mean compared to the GC original it is definitely noticably inferior but considering the PS2's inferior hardware and different architecture I would say its a relatively impressive port and there are much worse versions of the game.

Yeah fair point, I had the GC version first, beat that, then I got PS2 version here in the UK, had an offer with steelbook and extra in-game content as we all know, so naturally thought 'hell yeah' then i played it and then went 'hell no'
But each to their own, I think this is the worst version to play vs the other ports i have played though.

True it is the worst of the mainstream ports aside from the first PC port which I never played.

I rank the versions I played.
GC> 360/PS3> XboxOne/PS4 (aiming felt off in this one) > PS2 (still a good time)

The GC version of RE4 is a masterpiece that rivals Xbox 360/PS3 games with its fidelity.

Yup, it's still a good game on PS2, just one of the weakest tis all.
Reminds me I really need to pick up the Steam version at some point.

I was gifted Bayonetta on the ps3 for my 15th bday, it's been since my point of reference for bad ports:

-It runs at like 30-40 during compat, every time I throw a punch and some effect happens, like the angels lose their armor, the game chugs. Which is quite a pickle for an action game. Witch time can make you drop inputs even more, so can all the other levelòs with extra special effects or changing terrain (level 4 is strangling the ps3)

-Ever heard of a game having to Load when you switch inventory tab? Now you have. Especially when you open and close the bestiary

-it has to load to fucking pause the game

I'm a ps2 fanboy; playing RE4 with anything other than the gc controller (or a wiimote) feels weird to me.

Shame most people dont know the wii version supports the gc pad, you unlock it in a weird way, you gotta start with the wiimote+nunchuch, and then Detatch the nunch. It's not a setting in the menu; I guess this way they didnt have to change how the options screen looks..

It sure is a pain if you like carrying around a modded wii+gc pads
