The Pedestrian sure is clever!
Far too clever for me unfortunately and I had to begin resorting to a guide from about halfway through.
Still a cool experience though; fantastic presentation, a very novel concept which is executed well culminating in a genuinely surprising ending.

It's a bit repetitive but once the combat flow clicks it's a flawed but cool game.
SE said that's a remastered port and not using the emulator but it's still using the same emulator menu/options like save states/rewind.
If it was just emulating the PSP version than the game would not look as good as it does in the reviews released today.
Looks like emulation to me. What are you seeing that seems like a port?
This feels like when people call the PS2 emulated games on PS4 ports.

Check out the 38 games leaving PS Plus in May 2024
PS Plus has 38 games set to leave the service soon. Here is every game earmarked on our PlayStation Plus leaving list for Essential, Extra, and Premium.
Oh…I'm confused lol So it's not being emulated? Are you saying it's just using the features of the emulator? That's weird
Yep it's possible that it could just be that. Ridge Racer has both the main SKU at £15.99 (but restricted by the PS+ exclusivity), and the streaming SKU listed at cool £10,000. I thought it seemed like a more thoughtful price than just a generic put anything in just to get it through the system, but I guess we'll see in a year or so if the exclusivity runs out.
We might be able to say something with confidence earlier than that - Tekken 2 appeared in (late) May as part of the launch of the service in Asia. So if that becomes available for purchase in May/June, then I think that's a reasonable indication of how other Namco games on the service will (probably) work.
Don't quote me on this but I've heard the exclusivity is 1 year (for the titles you can't currently buy).
Guess we'll see soon enough

Huh? You mean one year before PS1/PSP classics can be bought separately? 🤔 Kinda weird if true.
Ridge racer being subscription only physically makes me sick… i gusss this is on Bandai Namco since it's the same issue with Tekken 2?
PREMIUM REDEEMED
Ridge Racer, what an utter masterpiece.
Worth the extra £14 for this alone easily.
Looks great!
This is staying installed on my PS5 forever.

Yeah I downloaded it and played 3 races earlier. I assumed they would have it in the classic section but apparently not. Still a great game and I miss the Ridge Racer series. I even bought the arcade 1up version recently but I have not put it together yet.
So, uh, what exactly is the file size for Abe's Exxodus, out of curiosity? The store page says 9GB, which is a bit high for a PS1 game. I know that the actual size is probably 4.5GB or so since the PS Store usually combines the file sizes for PS4&PS5 games because of course it does, but even that is absurd.
It looks like Ridge Racer 2 is using an older version of the PSP emulator than what Pinball Hereos is using.
I noticed that Pinball Heroes no longer has the Aspect Ratio options in the emulator settings. This has been replaced with an Overscan option allowing you to shrink the overall output. Also the Retro Classic Visual Presets no longer attempts to apply scan lines to the image.
Both seem like good changes given having those options never really made any sense, but I wonder why Ridge Racer 2 hasn't released using this latest version. It does suggest they may have been sitting on it for a while for whatever reason.

It's 3.96GB on PS5. It contains the 5x PAL versions and 1x NTSC version, and being a two disc game this is the reason it's the size that it is.
Seems to be a pretty easy Platinum. Checked it out and got a few trophies without much trouble.
Ooof. I guess that's gonna be the norm going forward if they are indeed fixing the PAL stuff from the EU releases. They're just gonna bundle it all together into one version. Gonna be rough if we ever get some of the 3-4 disc games up there.
I know Sony had great compression tech back on the PS1 on PS3/PSP days, so hopefully they're still using something similar. But it won't save us for stuff with lots of video files.
That gives me hope that Sony may be sitting on Dino Crisis as well
Did they actually use any kind of worthwhile compression? I don't recall many noticeable size differences for those games on PSP/PS3, other than the games where they replaced CD audio files with MP3s.
Oh they're definitely sitting on Dino Crisis. It's really just a question of when, and I guess at this point also a question of why.
Weird stuff, but hopefully more PSP games come out with the new version and hopefully trophies
Strange question to ask, here: if I buy PS+ with money in my PSN Wallet, will it default/ask me if I want to apply the wallet funds first prior to credit card/PayPal when ordering through Sony's website? Thinking about grabbing a $100 PSN gift card on Target that comes with an additional $10 Target gift card to pay for PS+ Extra, but I have to redeem via website as I won't have access to my PS5 until the middle of next month.
I wonder if they'll improve the PSP emulation retroactively, or if it's set and done after a game releases.
RR2 runs great and all, but those UI artifacts feel weird for something "official".
Also, I can't tell the difference between default and modern video settings.

It takes from wallet funds first before your other payment methods like debit/credit card or PayPal.
Perfect - I knew it worked that way on console but wasn't sure about website - thanks!
Works that way from the console, website and PS app so if you can't access the website or the app is more convenient you can do it there as well after logging into your account.
Playing Far Cry 5, mustache man at the beginning: "keep your guns holstered", 5 seconds later the female character is standing there with a giant ass gun lmao.

More leaving games. Some of them leave in February.
I'll try to finish Turning test, The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 and Masters of Anima before they are gone.
