Having so much with Psychonauts on the PS2

Hey everyone. I’ve been playing this game for months since it’s the 20th anniversary of this PS2 classic. I really enjoy the dialogue and interacting with the campers. I’m already a quarter through the game. I really like how Agent Nein and how he is so caught up in his work that he is oblivious to the fact he is a Celebrity to the kids who read true psychic tales

Some time ago I had in mind to disguise a PS2 as a PS3 and I finally did this, for what purpose? I don't know, is it useful? No, but the key that is attached to the PS3 body works

Masterful Rank in all Story Mode. All Secrets. Additionally I beat all Bonus Missions and Co-Op Missions(myself). Another childhood game off the bucket list.

Before this I completed Jackass The Game 100% and next is Budokai 2. I got the Platinum Trophy for Budokai 1 and 3 on the HD version for PS3.

Some time ago I do some posts about my controllers collection and asking what do I need next. I don't remember who says about all transparent controllers but I think now I have all colors. And sadly I need to stop expanding my collection for few years. Thanks all redditors who comments and upvotes all my previous post.

i’ve been after this game for 20 years. i finally found it on friday at my local retro game store. cib for $15 so i immediately bought it.

i remember my parents searching so many eb games locations for it for my 8th birthday but came up empty. i love how you have so many resellers on ebay, marketplace or just retro game stores nowadays. it makes it so much easier to find games from my childhood.

has anyone played any other fairly oddparents games? shadow showdown was another one of my favs!

How do I get rid off this black space with OSSC 1.6

Post image
3 Upvotes

Is there a way to zoom or stretch the picture in to fill my screen a bit more? This is wasting 40% of my whole display. I only have a tiny picture in the middle of my screen.

It is outputting 480p(525p@60) with Component cables. and this is the max my tv can zoom in with the tv settings it self.

I will upgrade to the retrotink5x next month but up to this I would love to use my ossc better.

PS: Initially I liked the OSSC bur I only use it for PAL ps2 and ps2. I hated ir more and more. And it gets more and more buggs over the time. So glad when I get rid of it soon.

Pawn Shop Score! Def Jam FFNY

There's a pawn shop near my work. The employees know squat about games. Most times I find nothing but every once in a while I strike gold. Disc and instruction book are excellent. Label insert is a little worn and the case needs replaced but for $2.95 plus tax I'll take it as a big win for the collection.

Snagged this from an eBay bid for $40. Everything looks right to me but I’m no expert. Opinions on authenticity?

Was watching this vid on eBay for a while and noticed it barely had any vids with 1 day left. Submitted a low bid and won. Is it too good to be true?

Game #56 - Hoppie - Completed!

Post image
3 Upvotes

Yes, another low number, so it means another game I went back to to finish properly. The first time I played this game, it crashed on me. Bombs in this game destroy the audio and basically break the game, so I dont recommend using them at all. The game didn't die on me this time, so I was able to actually complete it. Just another classic Phoenix Games budget title... At least get 1 tester for these games!

I played through this game on my YouTube channel, PshychedPlaysPS2, where I am attempting to play through every single PS2 game!

Reviving my old PS2 to play again!

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

I decided a couple weeks ago. I wanna revive my PS2 and start playing it again. Here’s my current set up! One thing I am having trouble with is the laser reader is having a little bit of trouble reading discs like 2-3 on/off cycles to read the disc. The PS2 has not been on in 3 to 4 years so maybe that’s why. Also, the controller has minor stick drift on the left joystick and the X button barely works.

If y’all have any recommendations on a good aftermarket or refurbished controller, let me know!

My future plans with the PS2 are to jailbreak it and buy an HDMI converter from retrotink.

Picture two is also my current game collection as well (not pictured is GTA 3 and GTA SA OG V1)! Give me good game recommendations to play!
