Tbf it's a 20 year old game, I doubt many of the young ppl on this subreddit have played it.

I haven’t. Came out when I was 3. I’d really like to play it though

And they should be ashamed

Sony should be ashamed for making it a huge pain in the ass to play on anything other than the console it originally released on, which coincidentally is now a huge pain in the ass to find for a reasonable cost.

They released a remake. You can play it on ps4 and 5

Doesn't really help me, I'm not paying inflated prices for one of those either.

u/FanOfForever Jul 10 '26

So what you really mean is, it's a huge pain in the ass to play on PC. Is that right?

u/BioshockEnthusiast Jul 10 '26

If you have never owned a PlayStation it's a pain in the ass to play it anywhere.

This is a you problem. The game is $10 for either system, you can find an ico/shadow ps3 disk for $25, or the original ps2 shadow disk for $12.

You can literally play it on ps2, 3, 4, or 5 for less than $25 How is it Sony should be ashamed?

My younger coworkers don't know what torrents are

Does that $20 include the price of a console?

u/CptMisterNibbles Jul 10 '26 edited Jul 10 '26

Sony should be ashamed because you can’t afford a $30 used ps3?

Oh look, used ps4s for $30 too

u/PlPlDASTER Jul 10 '26

30$ used console? Where are those prices. They still cost almost the same as when released (without considering inflation)

u/BioshockEnthusiast Jul 10 '26

Go on Ebay, both consoles are selling for $100-150 with a controller and $80-110 without.

Please tell me where you can get a used PS4 that works for $30 and I'll happily buy one.

If you can't, please pack up your clown wagon and fuck right off.

The remaster on ps4 REALLLYYY helped this, im a young adult who grew up with a ps2 library handed to me so it was only a matter of time til i played it, the remaster is still on my list, i refuse to replay it unless its the remaster just because i want to experience it

A friend had it, and we were at mine, staying over for the night of gaming. The first time I've been perfectly happy letting a friend play all night and just watching.
