Next up we have some obsolete online-only games for the PS2. As a fan of physical media, I don’t know that it’s something I’d be inclined to use unless I had screaming children that were always scratching my games. I don’t know much about the HD Loader except that it allows you to store whole games on the hard drive of the system so that you don’t need the discs to play anymore. ![]() I think I might find it interesting at the very least. Dog’s Life has been described as a very strange and lackluster experience with at least two controller buttons dedicated to activities surrounding excrement. We have a baseball game, an arcade compilation that I’m sure my boyfriend will adore, and Dog’s Life. I’ll start with some of the offbeat titles that didn’t quite fit into the other categories I made up in my head while arranging games for photos. Now for the games! We received over 60 games in total, but some of them were doubles that I’ve put aside and did not include in the photos here. I haven’t tried it out yet, but this might be useful since I do own the backwards compatible PS3 and might like to play my older game saves on the newer system. I was really happy to get a second one just in case mine ever kicks the bucket.Īn interesting doodad I’d never seen before was the external memory card adaptor (also on top of the slim) that is used to load saves from earlier PS consoles on a PS3. I didn’t bother to take the boxed one out for the photo, but below you can see the three consoles and the plethora of controllers that came along with them (as usual, I’ve left the power and audio/video cables out because they’re ugly.) There was a wired aftermarket controller that I didn’t bother photographing, but I did include my favourite controller of the bunch: a second aftermarket wireless controller by Logitech (it’s on top of the slim.) It’s the same as the one I got with my own PS2 on my 16th birthday and I can honestly say it’s the best wireless controller I’ve ever used. We received a PS2 slim, a PS2 fat unboxed, and one in the box that was so well wrapped that I don’t know if it’s ever been played. There are a wide variety of titles and several Playstation 2 consoles. The Playstation 2 bounty was plentiful in this game lot. The other games all fall into genres that I don’t feel would interest me very much, or might be better saved for an experience with a PC. Anyway, the PS3 games we got from Joe’s collection were all complete and in great condition, but I honestly can’t see myself playing a lot of them myself except for 3D Dot Game Heroes or Little Big Planet. What was great about that particular PS3 was that it came to us for $20 and made a make-work learning project for my better half as he tore it apart for cleaning purposes. We just recently got our very own PS3 for a screamin’ deal from the thrift store and stepped into the world of new(ish) generation gaming. ![]() The game lot did not come with a PS3, which I was thankful for. Thought I’d go about this chronicling in chronological order, did you? Me too, actually, until I realized that I love retro stuff a ton, and that all the best stuff would have passed early on as I got into the uncharted territories of PS3 and XBox 360 as the terminal consoles acquired in Joe’s Collection. ![]() This is the second post in a series called “Hungry Goriya Used Acquire” that serves to highlight the contents of a large game collection I procured from an old high school friend of mine, Joe.
