Edmund Honda posted:Cheap bluetooth dongles are terrible, all of them have bad range though. I use the usb socket on my monitor because it's just not powerful enough to be reliable otherwise I haven't seen any tests comparing InputMapper or DS4Windows or anything yet unfortunately. If I had any idea how to set up that kind of test properly I would give it a try, as I've got the controllers, a 144hz monitor, and I guess my phone records at 120hz. Bluetooth input lag itself can be as low as like ~4ms but it's based on noise interference and distance and things like that. Like if you have 4 DS4's all going at once you've basically added an extra 16ms of input lag just due to the noise.

Edmund Honda posted:Did a quick dirty test with the slowmotion mode on my phone and got ~40ms, which is exactly what my monitor is rated for input lag. Got exactly the same from a wired 360 controller. Which driver was that and was that DS4 on Bluetooth or Wired? Also wowza 40ms monitor input lag.

Sounds good. Maybe it's just InputMapper specifically that's laggy then, it also has ads apparently.  It's really nice how many good monitors have super low input lag these days. Mine's sub 4ms input+g2g response but it's a TN, these days they got stuff that good in IPS panels. Nate RFB posted:I'm really not sure I as a human being am capable of detecting input lag outside of maybe plugging a retro console up to a HDTV via RCA, but I can't notice anything with my DS4. According to DS4Windows I'm hitting around 1ms of latency on bluetooth but I somehow doubt that's the entirety of the input lag. Only times I can really tell is fighting games but nothing coming out these days generally gives a poo poo anyway since they all have big input buffers.

Mak0rz posted:I remember PS4 being dope as poo poo. Didn't much care for the others, though. Yeah I'm a huge fan of the series, but Phantasy Star 4 is the only game of the bunch that's still particularly playable at all. 1&2 are good in terms of theme, characters, story, and such, but actually playing them is a huge chore without emulating and turboing the poo poo out of everything. Just the worst of the worst of classic jRPG design of getting random encounters literally every 4 steps, absolutely nothing interesting going on in terms of combat mechanics or encounter/boss design. PS4 doesn't have a ton going on in terms of gameplay, but it's got enough, and it moves at a breakneck speed for the most part so it's not a bad playthrough. As long as you can still tolerate random battles anyway. I'm always impressed when Genesis games have good soundtracks because the entire instrument bank of that console sounds like machines farting.

bloodychill posted:A 2.5D remake (or better yet, sequel) to Ecco the Dolphin would be pretty badass. Ecco is really close to being a classic gem but the last 3 areas of the game completely kill it from getting there. Like, it's retardo hard in many places throughout the game, but the last two areas are a 6 minute autoscroller of nothing but instant death wall crushes and enemies that 2 shot you, followed up by a final boss who will 1 shot, and any death anywhere along the way sends you back to the beginning of the autoscroller. I seem to recall they said they did that because they were worried people would beat the game too easily otherwise. That story stuff is hilarious and I love it.

corn in the bible posted:Yakuza 4 has a feature where Kazuya explains the main plotlines of Yakuzas 1-3, so that's a good one to start with. That sounds pretty good then. Are the stories super convoluted or are they pretty straight forward? Gimme a rating on a scale from 1 to Kingdom Hearts

FirstAidKite posted:welcome to the machine has amazing music tho Yeah, all the end-game content is cool as poo poo but holy hell do you not want to actually play it without savestates. Tides of Time had a New Machine level which was more of the same, but as I recall it's only in Hard mode and there's a checkpoint after you finish it? Lotta other weird auto-scrolling mazes in that game though, but they're nowhere near as bad. And I think a couple of them are also Hard mode only as well.

cram me sideways posted:Stranger of Sword City is the Xbone game of the year. I have (re)embraced the anime, and am now eyeball deep in Wizardry-style stat noodling and class fuckery and drat it feels good to grind again. Glad to hear it's good, I've no Bone though so I'm waiting on the Vita release instead. I guess it's supposed to get a Steam release too but no news on a release date yet. Guess I better try and finish Phantasy Star 1 tomorrow so I can get on to better things.

cram me sideways posted:If you've played Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land on PS2 then Stranger is like a homecoming. I've been chasing this dragon for so long. I tried the Etrian Odyssey games on 3DS and I just couldn't get into them. The developer behind this game, Experience Inc., is totally behind doing even more of this poo poo, so they just became my new favorite developer. TotFL is one of my favorites in the genre so I'm gonna be all over this one. Weird that it got released on Vita and 360/Xbone but not PS4.
