I'm playing Dark Souls Remastered on PS5

I've beaten it on PC and Switch. Maybe Xbox. Can't recall if I beat It on it.

Never on PlayStation

Also never beat NG+ on any platform

But something about a favorite game… starting a new… like it never gets old or boring

What are games you do the same with? Surely I'm not alone

What's a game you're happy to boot up on a different platform and somehow it feels fresh and unexplored?

 

[Plies]

I played Mega Man 2 on a Raspberry Pi.

Shit was so ca$h!

Oooo. Man. I cant say enough amazing things in that gem

That MUSIC is all we need

I've been meaning to try out RE4 on the Switch 2 to see if hit can maintain 60FPS.

Which one? The HD or the remake?

I have it on XB360 and PC plus the remaster on PC.

Is it good on PS5?

The good version...also, the remake isn't on Switch.

Well. It's a 2018 remaster on current gen. Yeah. It's def good lol 60fps and all if that's what ya mean. But shit I'm sure my steam deck runs this beauty at 60fps too.

It's a top 5 GOAT to me. My heart lives in Firelink and I'm using my topic as an excuse to talk about it

 

[CrimsonTide]

True

Can't imagine why it wouldn't be. Unless it's capped and needs a patch.

This is what sucks on consoles. All consoles. Devs cap fps and when a new console comes along, it can't just brute force its power. Needs devs to do it.

 

[Danjin44]

I'm not sure I would but same game again unless there is significant change on different platform.

I if want replay it I just replay it same system that already own the game.

On SW1, it targeted 60 and hitched below it in busy scenes

I actually hope the Cube version gets added to NSO. So many Halloween opportunities there with RE:Remake, RE4, Eternal Darkness, Fatal Frame, and Luigi's Mansion.

But each system has its own Cheevos. No. I'm not a "hunter" of those by ANY means

But it's that hit of dopamine that on a new platform makes that game feel new and fresh and like it's the first time again

It's why I own

Dark Souls on

360
Prepare to die PC
Remastered on PC
Remastered on switch
Remastered on Xbox
Remastered on PlayStation

I'm obsessed

That means it isn't locked. So id guess switch 2 would destroy it and keep it locked at all times to 60 fps by sheer power and force

Quick-Man stage is the bane of my existence.

P.S. I do not need a new platform to replay something I just need the desire.

For me it's waste of money, only re-buy same games if there is actual change or I no longer have system to play it like (Muramasa).

Laser-Man stage is the bane of my existence.

P.S. I do not need a new platform to replay something I just need the desire.

Man that part is so easy. It's a dance. Have to know where to move. Yeah if it's ya first time. You'll die. No question

I get that. But it's fresh to me when it's on a new or different platform.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Not even once, there are many things better, this wouldn't even register as a top 20 moment for me (if at all)

[ReBurn]

I was jazzed about playing Mass Effect Legendary Edition on my Steam Deck after playing it at launch on console. I was more excited about it being portable than I was about it being a fresh playthrough on a different platform. Same for Detroit: Become Human.

 

[LavitzSlambert]

I've played RE4 on Gamecube, Wii, and Switch now. Also Ocarina of Time on N64, Gamecube, and Switch. Metroid Prime on Gamecube, Wii, Switch. I can't help myself when it comes to some of my favorites.

How I feel

Only a very select few I'd do this for. I commonly see many say RE4

For me it's Dark Souls 1

Among others too. But yeah

 

[Crayon]

SM64 is the game ive gone through on the most platforms on and would do again.

Switch/2 don't.

 

[Connificent]

Only if I dont have the achievements yet

 

[amigastar]

That reminds me i still haven't played Elden Ring which i have installed on my PC.

 

[Arsic]

Ninja Gaiden 2 and all its versions plus in the collections on multiple platforms.

Metal gear solid 2.

Resident evil 4.

Honestly it may be better to answer this per franchise for me. If it's god like with high replay value I've usually double dipped minimum. Franchises that come to mind:

Diablo
Path of exile
Resident Evil
Souls games both by FS and not
Doom games

 

[SamuraiEdge]

Replaying games Ultrawide as well on full 4k+ with 120 hz g sync in full hdr bliss has been game changing for me if that can count. Has blown my mind when was replaying RE:4

 

[DavidGzz]

From console to PC, for sure. Just waiting on a sale to get TLOU 2 on peecee

 

[clarky]

Metal Gear Revengance and Titanfall2.

Titanfall 2 campaign in particular runs at 600fps+ and is godly.

 

[Soodanim]

• Dark Souls
  • Assets were hamstrung by 720p
  • Framerate wasn't even a solid 30, so 60 on PC is glorious
• Resident Evil 4
  • RE4HD on PC is definitive. Nothing else comes close.

I tried 4 on PS3 again a couple years back and the IQ and framerate were both awful. I'm sure the OG on a CRT would be fine though.

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Playing Prey on Series X is fantastic.
I can't believe how much better it looks, runs, loads than the base Ps4 version.

 

[Hashassin]

Maybe playing a GOAT for the first time?

 

[HRK69]

What's a game you're happy to boot up on a different platform and somehow it feels fresh and unexplored?

Literally none

No? Why would it be?

Remastered is the worst version of the game. They botched the lighting and atmosphere on many places.

Either play the Prepare to Die edition on PC with the Durante fix or the remaster on Switch (it's different from the remaster on other systems and way closer to the original game).

If you can't play any if those, there are mods that fix the remaster on PC.

 

[Arsic]

No? Why would it be?

Because your comment makes no sense in reference to what this thread is about.

Can you elaborate or explain since I must be retarded?

 

[Dr.Morris79]

Red Dead 2 on the PC. utter glorious

One of the main reasons I pretty much ditched consoles

Ne regrats.

OP asks if there's anything better than replaying a [great] game on a different platform for the first time.
I say there's many things better [for me] and as such [replaying a [great] game on a different platform for the first time] doesn't register as a top moment for me, not even once.

 

[Zacfoldor]

FFXII was one of my favorite games ever. LOVED it originally on PS2. Went back and played it on Switch remastered. Even BETTER than I remembered. I've also had that feeling playing several other amazing games with much better performance. Most of the souls games.

I love Ivalice. I think the absolute best jrpgs ever made come from Ivalice. There is nothing like returning there. I can't fucking wait for FFTactics remaster but we NEED Vagrant Story. We need it like we need a Bloodborne or RDR2 patch on PS5.

 

[PlayStaytion]

Doom1+2, Silent Hill Series, Resident Evil Series, Duke Nukem and many ps2 games that I don't remember.

 

[Labadal]

I have played Final Fantasy VI on SNES, PS1, PS2, PSP, PS3, and on PC.

Ah that makes sense. I am retarded.

 

[Trilobit]

My best gaming experiences mostly come from some hellish moments in life when all I needed was a bit of escapism to be able to deal/endure with the shit going on. No other medium has allowed me to completely immerse myself in another world like gaming. Of course, it's better to enjoy games together with a stable life, but some of the intensity is lost that way lol.

Whether I read, watch a movie or listen to music there's always that 25-30% of my brain that's active and needs stimulance. Which might be why I love snacking whilst watching movies. But with games nearly 100% is activated and stimulated. There's probably some diagnosis or word for this.

 

[Judge Magister]

I think i played every version of MGS2/3. Had a blast replaying 2 on Vita.
I prefer it over 3 because top down camera works better and gameplay is more fluid, don't have to pause and manage things.

Streets of Rage 1/2 on 3DS awesome stuff.
I didn't care about 3D effect before but in the Sega ports was fantastic.

I'm playing Yakuza Kiwami on Steam Deck Probably do the Switch version on Switch 2 at some point. Some games, you just love the journey.
