Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

What, I’m going to play TLoU 2 without playing 1 or GoW 4 without playing 1-3?

Part I and Part II are both on Steam, so you can get the full Last of Us experience without a console, and GoW 2018 is a soft reboot, so playing the original trilogy isn't strictly necessary.

As for GOW 1-3...there's no PC port, so you've got two options: sail the high seas and emulate them via PCSX2 and/or RPCS3, or get the games and a used PS3 off of eBay.

And, given I've already mentioned emulation:

My entire experience with Sony is that I loved Patapon on the PSP (I would sell my fucking soul to get it to play on a smartphone god)

If you're looking for Patapon on your phone, the only course I know of is to grab PSP emulator PPSSPP and find the ISOs online. If you're fine playing them on your PC, a remaster of the first two games is coming to Steam on June 10th.

(I am deep in the weeds on this shit, I'll admit)
