On paper, it's a match made in heaven . Can I play as Roger Moore? Speaking of which. Edited January 19, 2021 by jazzygeofferz Quote

Was playing Hitman yesterday as my cousin sent it to me from America. It's alright. Framerate's dogshit. A chipped PS5? Where did you have that done? Quote

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted January 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2021 I know a guy whose father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate works for Sony so he got me one before they could put all the copy protection on. Quote
Members SuperBacon Posted January 19, 2021 Members Posted January 19, 2021 Reminds me of when Sean McNally's brother chipped all our PS1s and sold the games for 50p but because I didn't use a scart I had to play Metal Gear Solid in black and white until I could get one. What a time. Quote
Paid Members Supremo Posted January 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) Memories of playing a copy of Metal Gear Solid on a chipped PS1 and having my life RUINED when I didn’t have the game’s official case to find the required codec frequency on the back. I think I ended up just calling every single frequency. Probably took hours. Edited January 19, 2021 by Supremo Quote

I did the same, so went to my local Future Zone to look at the back of the box. Quote
Paid Members FLips Posted January 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2021 I had a chipped copy of a Godzilla game that was not only entirely in black and white but also Japanese. It was some sort of trading card game! Quote
Mr_Danger Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 I’m pretty sure I’ve never played MGS solely for that reason. Didn’t matter, I was too busy blowing up Terry Wogan and Cilla Black on Worms with my upside down PS1 anyway. Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted January 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2021 I used to do the disc swap trick where you'd hold the button inside the drive down with the innards of a biro. We had a disc with a some wrestling games on it. The old WCW games, and WWF Attitude. To free up space none of the music was in the games so the wrestlers would all come out to silence. I think they chopped the videos out of the WCW games as well, meaning there was no point to them. Quote
Merzbow Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 (edited) You could get a spring that'd hold that inner button down when opening the disc drive, I had one that came with a little dohicky that plugged into the back of the original models for playing backups and using cheat codes. I had a dodgy beta copy of Attitude, lots of stuff missing and would barely ever load a match. Edited January 19, 2021 by Merzbow Quote
Paid Members Chris B Posted January 19, 2021 Paid Members Posted January 19, 2021 What was the disc swap trick? Quote

The Gaffer Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 On the subject of dodgy video game tricks, during the generational switchover between PS1 and PS2 I rented the PS2 version of Tony Hawk 3 and returned the PS1 version that I owned in its place when I was a kid. Both discs were just yellow with the game logo, no platform specified. I was a little scumbag. Spare a thought for the next kid who rented it out and was greeted with this: Quote
