Hey am a big fan of PlayStation from the beginning and ps4 pro is awesome and I well love if it’s there is a way that metal gear solid 4 is coming to ps4 as a remastered, i wonder if that can happen.
I remember as a kid I grew up on PlayStation and Nintendo and even back then I had this weird fascination with being a completionist and recording games. It’s always been this addictive hobby for me. I would use our VHS player to record The Legend of Zelda Link to the Past and I remember in old Spyro games I would go out of my way to get all the gems and dragons/eggs before trophies were even a thing.
I remember doing the PS2 era had this VHS DVD combo and it had a built-in DVD burner. I would record Kingdom Hearts playthroughs on VHS side of things even going out of my way to pause the recording when I go into menus and stuff to make it look more like a “movie” so a early version of editing if you will and then on the same device I could burn that footage from the VHS tape onto a DVD.
Now we have YouTube and the built-in PS4 share feature so it’s more common now to record and share gameplay but I got an early start on it.
I did the same thing! I had separate VHS tapes for each console… pretty sure if I dig through my boxes back home I can find one for PS1, one for N64, one for PS2… man, those were the days.
