All things considered, I probably enjoyed the PlayStation line most in descending order. PSX had my favorite installments of my favorite franchises.
.
PS2 was also fantastic. PS3 was nice, but cutting OtherOS and backwards compatibility, along with the short lifespan due to hardware, left a sour taste that took CFW to fix. It is also a pain to emulate.
.
By the PS4, I had children and couldn't really keep up much, bit I made time for FF7:R. PS5 is a hot mess of advertising, leftist-style characters, and the fact that almost nothing is actually a true, pure PS5 game.
Got a PS5 just to play 12-15 year old games with shiny graphics, PS1-2 era games, and Eldin Ring next month.
Got a PS4 almost exclusively to play bloodborne...
Nobody knows how to make fun games anymore since the industry went mostly to shit. Remakes might as well be 'demakes' since the OC Japanese companies will often source their work to 3rd party American companies like Bluepoint Games.
Bluepoint in their work on the Demon's Souls remake changed a historically white recurring character to be a black guy- and changed the default character creation model to female ("Body type A")... for some reason. They were so busy with it that they didn't have time to fix the bugs in the game, or make anything new.
Playstation 3... lolwut
Mini hat for his cat... priceless.
